    Scallops appetizer, amazing!
    Anthony L.

    If years before AI you could have imagined the perfect restaurant perched on a hillside overlooking Lake Chelan and serving exceptional Italian fare, Sorrento's would be it. The open-air design and panoramic views are unmatched anywhere on the lake. The service has always been fantastic, with staff who are both attentive and genuinely friendly. In 2025, a new executive chef took the helm, continuing the tradition of delivering outstanding dishes. Some of our all-time favorites include the clams appetizer, with a broth that is absolutely to die for. That same broth appears in my favorite entrée, the Pescatore, which is an absolute must-order. They are sold out every single night, so reservations are an absolute must. If you are looking for the best meal, with the best view, in the best venue on the lake, look no further than Sorrento's.

    Dolce Speziato

    A group of four of us came here for lunch. You absolutely cannot beat the spectacular view and the restaurant has great decor and ambiance. They have tables out front outside directly facing the lake, an indoor dining room with 360 degree windows, and a beautiful, peaceful back patio with a water feature. We ordered some apps and three pizzas and the food was very good. The dolce speziato was one of the best pizzas I've ever had with the pepper relish and hot honey. Our servers were attentive and we had a great experience.

    Fine dining attached to a tasting room. Good service, dishes sounded better than they tasted (they were good, not great). Fantastic wine to choose from.

    The view was spectacular, the pizza was okay. I absolutely love the winery, but never was able to try to restaurant. It was a lot less fancy than I was expecting. Service was fine, food was mediocre. I would just stick with the absolutely delicious wine.

    Located in Tsillan Cellars -- amazing views, great service, and good food! We always have dinner here after wine tasting. If you purchase a bottle at Tsillan Cellars, you can have it with your email (no corkage fee...unless this has changed in the last couple of years).

    Put Sorrentos back on the list! The Restaurant Week menu satisfied everybody in my party. Caesar Salad, meatballs with linguine, and hefty slice of cheesecake for $35. Great service and ambiance. Enjoy!

    We came here for my birthday dinner while on vacation to celebrate. The ambiance is absolutely gorgeous. The view is so pretty and the lights inside the restaurant add to the beauty. We ordered the Hot Honey Baked Feta as an appetizer and it was so delicious! The honey, garlic, scallions, olive oil, and feta all blend together beautifully to make a super tasty bite. I ordered the Linguine il Pescatore for dinner and there is so much seafood in it! Lots of crab, scallops, and prawns. All of it was amazing and the sauce was very tasty as well. My husband ordered the NY Steak and it was also amazing. Cooked very well and the compound butter topping added so much to the flavor of the steak. I also ordered a glass of Riesling which I did not love but I prefer sweet wines and to me it was a bit on the drier side for a Riesling. My kids ordered a pepperoni pizza, the chicken tenders and fries, and an order of pasta with Alfredo sauce and chicken. Serving sizes were decent. My son said the chicken tenders were not very crispy but that was the only complaint I heard from them. Our server was not super attentive to us and we were sitting and waiting on him pretty frequently throughout our dinner which was disappointing, but the staff that circled the room to refill drinks and pick up empty dishes were VERY attentive and very kind. Overall it was a lovely birthday dinner with a gorgeous view and delicious food!

    We made reservations during the Jazz Fest weekend and requested a table to watch the performer. The restaurant. Gave us an amazing seat right at the edge of the restaurant and patio area with a perfect view. The service was impeccable, friendly, prompt and accurate. The food was delicious and a bottle of wine, well you really can{t go wrong with any of their options at Tsillan Cellars. This made for a great experience and would highly suggest this to others, especially during the jazz festival in May.

    Rockfish with crab special
    Jesse G.

    First and likely most importantly; the view is probably the best of any restaurant in Chelan. The open air, Italian-inspired place looks over the lake and surrounding hills and is positively lovely. The restaurant is nicely laid out - an indoor/outdoor space with ways to block off various windy parts and a big fire place. The place seems relatively old-school "nice" but there were certain things that were odd - the opera karaoke singer's bag and coffee were stowed in the main part of the restaurant right on the nice fireplace, for example. And oh, there was an opera karaoke singer, who was super charming and talented, however it created a really loud space for my older parents and we couldn't hear very well. The food was pretty good. I got the rockfish crab special and felt the dish was a big uneven - the crab was great and generous - the rice and rockfish could have been seasoned a bit more. My parents and wife were happy with their meals - and the desserts were amazing - order the butterscotch dessert - both light, smooth and rich all at once! Service was efficient and friendly . They forgot our bread service but quickly fixed that once we mentioned something. I think they could tell we were up for a faster dining experience and made it happen which I appreciated.

    We always come here when in town as the view, service & food are amazing. This time was no different than any other, Tracey went above and beyond to give us excellent service! She guided us when we were indecisive on what to order and was spot on with each choice. The steaks were cooked to absolute perfection & the duck was outstanding! The chicken Alfredo pasta was stellar but the affogato I will be dreaming about! Thank you Sorrento staff for another amazing dinner and night!

    What a beautiful location for brunch. Our friend booked us reservations here and we couldn't decide what we liked more-- the gorgeous view and grounds, the oh so satisfying mimosa pitcher, the exquisite food, or the attached tasting room! It was all divine. Our server was friendly and helpful and food came out well prepared and in excellent time. As it was brunch several of us ordered breakfast and a few went for lunch. They had no difficulty accommodating the gluten free people at the table either. Everything we had was delicious and it was hands down my favorite spot on our trip to Chelan. Can't wait to visit again.

    This restaurant sits on a nice higher elevation so you get some really nice views of the lake. Came with my family for lunch and had a wonderful time. Started with bread/balsamic dip and rosemary fries. The fries were perfectly done. Main course was mushroom ravioli and veggie pesto pizza (loaded with artichokes, sundried tomatoes etc). I loved that the ravioli wasnt loaded with cheese sauce. It was on the drier side but very flavorful. Washed everything down nicely with a glass of white. Service was the best. Our waitress was attentive and made sure we were having a good time. Will definitely come back!

    We had one of the best dinners and nicest dining experience recently at the Bistro. Clearly, the…read morechef has put a lot of thought into the menu and ingredients, and you can tell. We started with cocktails. Hubby had a satisfying peach Moscow Mule and I had the Bistro Margarita that was one of the best margaritas I have ever had (and I've had my share). The Grand Marnier prawns were excellent and the Burrata with fresh peaches was amazing. We saw a table of four ladies order the carafe of sparkling cocktails and they clearly enjoyed the order--their glasses came with fresh flowers on each. Lovely. A glance around the restaurant showed other diners were clearly happy. Hubby had the steak frites and I had the poulet frites. Both were great. For dessert, the lemon tart was full of body and luscious and the strawberry gelato was clearly fresh. Service was spot on. Chelan is a seasonal resort town, so many of the servers are 20 or under. I don't know the age of our server Sophie, but her service was top notch and clearly surpassed her age. The place is lovely; decor is tasteful and thoughtful, the restaurant was spotless and it's a lovely dining experience for a great night out. This will become our habit in Chelan.

    We came here to celebrate a birthday--just three ladies enjoying a night out--and overall had a…read morereally nice experience with a few hiccups. We started with two mocktails and an IPA. The mocktails were not only delicious but beautifully presented, which made them feel a little extra special. For appetizers we had the house bread & butter and the French onion soup. The bread was fresh and paired with a high-quality, creamy butter that tasted amazing. The French onion soup arrived in the cutest little pot with a lid and had a rich, savory flavor with perfectly melted cheese on top. Unfortunately, there were whole peppercorns in the soup (I fished out four), which was surprising and almost ruined an otherwise great dish. Entrées were a mix of hits and misses. The grilled salmon with dinner potatoes was the star of the night--perfectly cooked, flaky, and full of flavor. Absolutely spot on. The crab cakes were a good size with lots of crab and a nicely crisp exterior, but I did find pieces of crab shell in mine. The side salad that came with it was the biggest disappointment--no option to swap it out and the lettuce was visibly brown. We also ordered the mushroom pasta. I didn't personally try it, but it looked great; however, I was told the flavor was a bit lacking. Dessert totally redeemed any small issues--the chocolate mousse cake was incredibly decadent and rich. Definitely a must-try. I even took a slice home for my husband. Service was friendly and attentive, drinks were great, and most of the food was very good. Our total was close to $200 for three people, which felt fair for the quality and the occasion. Would come back again--especially for that salmon and the chocolate mousse cake--just hoping for a little more consistency next time
