Visited Sorrento for the first time with a party of 20 and it was great! Service was very friendly and handled our large group with smiles, patience, and tact. I ordered Chicken Milanese with linguine, and it was outstanding. Two huge pieces of chicken, pounded thin, breaded and fried to perfection. The pasta was cooked perfectly as well and the lemon and butter sauce was delicious. This, along with the crusty Italian bread service, was just so good! Priced at $21, I think it was a great value as well. Definitely looking forward to coming back and trying other menu items. read more

Another Italian restaurant in RI with food that's like your grandma used to make. I got the veal francaise. Portion size was good and the fried outside was more wet than crispy, but I didn't mind it. The meat was thin and tender, but the dish could have used more flavor. $30 is pretty steep for this dish when other restaurants in Rhode Island are around $25. My mom got the chicken parm (without cheese). Again, the fried outside is a different style compared to the typical crispy, breadcrumb crust. For being pounded very thin, the chicken was super juicy. It was $19 which is pretty good. However, the atmosphere isn't pleasant. The tables are right on top you and it's very noisy inside. Because of this, it's a good place for takeout and I saw many people getting food to go. read more

The service was excellent; very attentive. I had the veal sorento which is layered with eggplant, ricotta and mozzarella. One can get 2 or 3 more meals because the portion size is generous. We'll definitely be back!! read more

We love this restaurant. The food is delicious the staff is great it's our go to place

I will begin by saying the food is definitely 5 stars. It is always delicious! There is nothing negative to say about the food. There is also nothing negative to say about the . The weight staff has always and pleasant. Having these positive things I will now move on to my complaints. The booths that are supposed to be for six people are not roomy enough to be comfortable for six adults. When a party of six comes in they should be seated at a table where they can enjoy their food comfortably. There were plenty of tables available when we, six adults, entered. I don't understand why we were seated in such an uncomfortable position. My final complaint is that they will not give separate checks. So if you are a senior citizen on a fixed income dining with another couple, be prepared to just split the bill. Or, have a calculator ready and cash on hand to pay for your share. I go to many, many restaurants in the surrounding area that have no problem giving separate checks to the separate couples within a party. So, although the food at Sorrento's deserves five stars on every occasion that I have there, I will probably go elsewhere for more comfortable seating and convenience in paying the bill. read more

Service as in the past took too long !!! Please not the waitress but every course was a long wait !! Food so so!!!

Its been five years since I last visited Sorrento restaurant and I remember loving it but I just went tonight and unfortunately the quality just isn't the same. I should state that this review is based on a take-out order. The eggplant had a rough texture and the chicken was too thin and lacking any meat. The penne and garlic knots were tasty. read more

Order snail salad , cost $22.70 and was such a small portion. On top of that was mostly celery and onions!!! Topped with normal salad dressing. Absolutely the worst snail salad I have ever had in my whole life . Never again. read more

A real "old school" Italian restaurant! Great veal and peas, so tender and tastes like my grandmother's!!! Couldn't believe they actually had Tripe!!! I know, not for everyone but again, just like Grandma's. That was my first visit there and won't be my last!!! Old school Italian food...........so rare and hard to find!!! read more

Decided to give this place a whirl. Welp, we ordered take out. Upon arrival, no parking in the small front lot. Decided to park in a neighboring business right next door. So, I walked in the door with the "take out" sign above it which leads in to a bar area. First thoughts, what a dump! This place is severely dated and appears as if it hasn't been renovated since the maybe the early 90s. This includes the the booze and beer displayed on the bar which, no bartender was tending. Not one employee anywhere in sight for nearly 10min. There were 2 other patrons also waiting for someone... anyone! Finally someone pops out of the kitchen who offers no type of greeting just a "what's the name?" Several minutes later I was handed my order and headed home ready to enjoy dinner. Now, I been dying for mozzarella sticks for weeks! To my surprise the mozzarella sticks we ordered don't come with marinara apparently... what? Again, really been wanting some delicious cheesy sticks so who needs sauce, right? Whomp whomp they were awful. Tasted like dirty old fryer oil and the breading had an odd texture. I just got the Italian for my meal which was actually pretty good. My wife ordered the white clam pasta. Many of the shells were cracked and broken. She said it wasn't bad... until she ate a clam with a, um... unique not so mmm that's a good clam flavor. So we will see how that goes... This is definitely a one and done for me. read more

Warm and inviting staff. Real family feel. Great food reasonably priced. Large portions.

Fantastic food! What a wonderful place. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. The food is fantastic. Traditional Authentic Italian cuisine. The escarole and bean appetizer was heaven. I especially loved the toasted Italian bread they served with it. The veal parmigiana was the best we've ever had in RI. The veal Milanese was fantastic as well. I, being a vegan diner, was accommodated by the chef fully. I asked if they could prepare the tre mushroom appetizer over gnocchi pasta and the chef happily obliged. It was fantastic. I definitely overate and ended taking leftovers home to be enjoyed the next evening. As far as I'm concerned Sorrento's is the BEST Italian restaurant in RI. This place is a must try if your in RI. You will not be sorry. read more

First time here. I wasn't sure what to expect but it was really good!! We had a great , attentive server named Courtney! I had the Sorrento which was chicken cutlet and eggplant it was so tasty! Definitely will go back! read more

Been going to Sorrento for many years, have mostly had fantastic meals, and great take out... Wanting a quick sandwich Saturday night after a late lunch, I logged into their website & ordered online as I usually do. Pick up in 30... Never had an issue... Waited the requisite 20 minutes before heading out, got there at the 30 minute mark. Couldn't find our order in the system. Anywhere...name, number, order, nope. After checking the kitchen, the server came out and told me "I don't know what happened, it didn't come over this thing (pointing to some contraption in a dark recess) and nobody told me"...huh? She put the order in for me as I stood & waited almost 45 minutes to walk out with our 3 sandwiches, a burger, a meatball & an Italian grinder...only ONE of which needed to be cooked. I contacted Sorrento via their app Sunday morning, and was offered neither an apology nor a response. My husband is done with them. If we weren't tired, we'd have just gone elsewhere...but waiting nearly 90 minutes for 3 sandwiches is nuts. If you're ordering takeout, I suggest calling them or order in & wait,,,hopefully you won't be waiting 90 minutes! read more

I'm convinced their lasagna is made by an old Italian grandma wearing one of those front button aprons. It's perfect old school traditional lasagna with tomato cutlets in the mix. read more

Highly recommend this restaurant. We have been driving by this place for years and finally stopped for dinner tonight and it was delicious. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't for the slow service. Our waitress was so very nice but it took so long for her to come to even take our drink order and she didn't come enough to check on us. The waitress did bring over fresh bread and I ordered some meatballs as an appetizer and I loved them and they were only $3.50. I also ordered a Caesar Salad which was tasty. For dinner I had a nice size Veal Parm which was truly delicious and my wife had an amazing amount of chicken with her meal; Chicken Francises. Definitely coming back. Next visit; 1/11/19 Amazing.... but sad that my wife & I had the exact things we had last time. I had the Meatball App & Csaser Salad to start off. The meatballs were so good I got two more with my Veal Parm which I think was the best I have ever had. Yes... best I ever had. Delicious!!! Only difference with my wife's Chicken Francises was not as much chicken as last time. Moving my rating to 5 stars. Delicious!! Worth the 50 minute drive. Our waitress was outstanding... terrible but I forgot her name. Short women with a wonderful personality. So looking forward to going back. Nothing fancy... just good food. read more

Great Chicken Parm- Menu needs updating. Overall good-Staff is awesome, especially Nicole, Shannon and John

So north providence ri is one of those places that can boast about their Italian presence. Federal hill is a mile away and if you want Italian but don't want the excessive price, parking issues or pretentious frills then you absolutely need to get your butt to sorrento. From the outside it doesn't look like much - at the end of a strip mall on a busy thoroughfare, you may miss it. But go inside and find a spot that's dead middle of the Italian pizza joint down the street from your middle school and the high end upscale Italian you see in the north end of Boston. Legit ! There's something about sorrento that makes you feel like you entered mamas house but this time with a full bar! There is a quieter back room area but the main area by the bar and front windows is where you will likely be seated for a smaller group. Truly it's hard to find many items over $20 on the menu. And for insane portions you receive it feels like they typed out the prices wrong on the menu. Chicken Parmesan easily is 2 meals at very least for one person. That cannot be overstated enough! The tre funghi is my absolutely favorite as it's tossed in a pink sauce (my standby) and it's made fresh fresh fresh every time. If I had to skip something I'd say don't bother with a side salad or app salad - these are the most lackluster and yummy real estate wasting things when the main dishes are so huge. If even say try to avoid the bread for the same reasons. Good seafood options - really fresh and if you fancy a good cocktail this may be your place. Staff is also a delight. Ask for Shannon she's the best. !! read more

Revisited this place for the first time in years, and I gues I haven't been missing much. To begin with the service is terrible, we waited 20 minutes just for the waitress to come to the table, she took our drink order, my girlfriend ordered the Angry Orchard Rose beer, and she ended up bringing her wine instead....and took forever to bring back the correct drink Then she asked us if we wanted bread, but took forever to bring it, and it wasn't even that great She finally took our dinner order, my girlfriend ordered the beer battered fish and chips, which had absolutely no taste at all, batter was mushy and undercooked. I got the pasta puttanesca that wasn't that bad, but I can't say it's the best I've ever had either read more

Nice little place on Smith Street in North Providence. The bread was amazing and I was told it was from DiLouuse on Chalkstone Ave. It was a very cold night and there was no parking in their small parking lot which is shared by other establishments in a strip mall plaza. The food was good. read more

Never been to Sorrento's. Walked in at noon when they opened on New Years Eve to inquire re a Prime Rib to go for later in the evening. John, the manager was very polite, cordial and was more than accommodating to answer all my questions. I later ordered a prime rib to pick up for New Year's eve . The steak was fantastic! The service was very good, and it seems like a very nice, peaceful atmosphere. We ( wife and I ) will return for sit down dinner. read more

Hand down best Italian food in the Providence area! Their chicken parm and chicken sorrento are RIDICULOUS. Ask for pink sauce on either dish ohhhhh myyyy gggggggggg. Their red sauce is also . If you don't like Sorrento, you're dead to me. read more

First time eating at this restaurant and boy am I glad we did! Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Very thankful they were able to accept a larger party so we could enjoy a stress free Easter dinner with our family. Food was absolutely delicious and the portions for the prices paid were spot on! I even took home leftovers for our lunches the following day. Bow tie with pink vodka sauce was super yummy! Chicken parm was delicious. I loved that the chicken was nicely thin and moist. Right amount of cheese and sauce. The only complaint we have is that the baked seafood casserole was wet at the bottom. But the taste and flavor of the dish was certainly there. Looking forward to coming back and trying some of your other scrumptious dinner options such as your chicken Sorrento. Thank you again for a wonderful meal! read more

My New Favorite Local Restaurant Sorrento a small Italian American restaurant located in a strip mall off busy Smith St in North Providence. The signature of this place is the fresh bread and all dishes are made to order, no pre made food here. We have been frequenting lately with the Lenten season on Fridays. They always have fresh seafood specials and the baked fish, shrimp, and scallops were fantastic. The menu has all of the other Italian staples your looking for. Tip: Try the cannellini bean app, enough for a whole meal They have a small bar area with a TV if you like sitting at the bar and the staff is super friendly. They make you feel like a close friend even from the first time I visited. Overall: Fresh delicious scratch made food at a very good value. Add in family friendly service and well made drinks and that is a winner to me. Come out and support Sorrento Thanks read more

Was looking for a casual mom and pop type Italian place and found this spot which filled the bill perfectly! The food was amazing, the service was outstanding, thanks to Hannah! And I didn't have to take out a loan to pay the check! We had the chicken parm and spaghetti aglio e olio with shrimp. Both were super delicious and huge portions. The house salad was crispy fresh and perfect. The bread was crusty outside and soft inside! Perfect meal! read more

You can't get a prime rib cooked medium rare... because they grill it. ? Never heard of that before.
