As we were leaving the train station and headed towards our hotel, I noticed this little gem. Later…read morein the evening when we were pondering where to go for our dinner, I saw that that Sorrento had received high praise on Trip Advisor, and our decision was made. The small restaurante is owned by a sweet Italian family. I love the homey atmosphere of the place. Large wooden tables, interesting ball wrapped fixtures, and friendly staff who offered quick service with helpful answers to questions about the menu. I had a glass of Chardonnay, which I was told would be a bit dry, but l found it quite lovely and mild. It was easy to drink and went nicely with all we ate. The Mozzarella In Carrozza (Breaded and deep fried mozzarella cheese in breadcrumbs served with basil scented napolitana dip) was fantastic. At £5.50, it was an excellent starter. I was expecting Mozzarella sticks, but what arrived to our table was a 3 or 4 inch round of deliciously oozy mozzarella in a crunchy bread coating. It was delicious. I went with the Pollo Alla Pizzaiola (Breast of chicken cooked in tomato, garlic, oregano, fresh mozzarella, white wine and basil pesto sauce). It came with a side of steamed vegetables (broccoli, carrots and potatoes). I would have enjoyed a small side of pasta with it for £13.50, but it was so delicious. For dessert, I had to go for the Souffle al Cioccolato, which is quite self explanatory. It was a seriously delicious and dense chocolate cake and the centre was so thick and luscious. It's more than worth the £4.95 price. This was by far the best dessert that I have had in England. Superb. I spoke with the owner after the meal to inquire as to whether the desserts were made in house and I was told that they were. The ice creams aren't, but the actual dessert is. I passed along my high praise. He had a nice conversation with us and offered us an after-dinner drink. We selected the Limoncello and it was amazing, and a nice end to a wonderful meal. I highly recommend this restaurant, and will look forward to a trip back to Stroud so we can return.

February 15th 2019…read more In Evening, me my mom and my dad had a family dinner together.Everything was going great. We first had to book this Italian restaurant called Rigoletto. After we got there we found a very comfortable seat. Mom and I started to order. My original plan for my third course was to eat a pancake called Crêpes Suzette. The waitress said that I couldn't order that as my third course. It was because there would be alcohol in Crêpes Suzette so he suggested me to try another dessert for my third course so I ordered tiramisu. The rest of our meal was delicious! However, our neighbors ordered Crêpes Suzette and we saw the fire flying up two meters high. It was caused by the alcohol. Because the alcohol was strong enough to make the cooking pan go on fire for two meters high. That was a funny & interesting night. I enjoyed eating in the Rigoletto and if you have time, you can go there for your dinner!!! Fun Fact This was my dolci menu!!!

But we found the food and staff great, and it was good value. Our three courses came to just over £32 a head, including service and drinks: whitebait and a bruschetta (very generously smothered with tomato and garlic) to start; Pizza San Guiseppe (mushrooms, ham, tomato and mozzarella) and Penne Primavera (tomato, garlic, peppers, aubergine, courgette and olives) for mains, and for dessert a Panna Cotta with caramel, and a "Gusto D'Italia" ice cream sundae with cherry ice cream, whipped cream, amaretti and flaked almonds. All were freshly cooked/made and very tasty. Service was efficient and friendly. Somewhere we'd happily return to.

Restaurant is priced well and is ok given natural market around them. We had an overall pleasant experience and food was fresh and prepared with some care. Food is typical Italian American or Italian British cuisine- an interpretation of Italian dishes anglosaxonized to local pallet. Not bad, but not what I rate a 4+. I'd have to lower or change my expectations to return, but have to be fair in that they served us with little fuss. It is decent and definitely recommended given all choices surrounding them.

The staff were friendly and attentive (but not overly so because they did let us chill out and talk for a bit after our meal). For food, I really enjoyed the mushroom risotto- it does have a pretty heavy mushroom taste so if you like mushrooms you'll love it. I found adding chicken cut the taste a little; I'm not sure if I'd have liked it as much if I didn't add the protein. My friend ordered the crab fettuccine...it was okayyyy. Wasn't enough crab for me personally and wish there'd been more bisque to make it a smidge more creamy. The bruschetta was a nice appetizer but was only two slices so wouldn't recommend for more than 2 people. Side note: if you're looking for a good wine, the Chianti was delicious and complimented the meal well. We were able to walk in with no reservations for 2 people but any group larger than that, you need to be prepared to wait or make your reservation ahead of time. There were a couple groups of 4 people in front of us and they quoted them a 2 hour wait because of the amount of reservations they had. Could have been just because of the holiday time.

The interior was cozy, well lit, and had an intimate feel, which makes the restaurant a popular place for Christmas parties.
