They have a great kitchen and wish we had more days to try everything on the menu.

We heard several good recommendations about this restaurant from staff at a local hotel. As we…read moreapproached we could see lively bustle and banter from within, amidst the soft light was a busy restaurant teeming with conversations and smiles. As we entered to the restaurant, we were shown to our seats by the most friendly of staff, who took our coats, before we settled.. I think we were extremely lucky to get seated in all honesty as most of the tables were pre-booked. So, we sat down to enjoy our meal, the service was excellent, i have never had my needs anticipated in so many ways. The staff new the menu and could recommend the food. And there was a synergy between the servers, yes we had more than one it seemed, a warmness and a genuine interest in your happiness. Everyone one of the servers smiled! The Penne Arrabbiata was extremely tasty but a bit on he mild side in terms of tasting the chilli's, though still very good you could taste the use of fresh ingredients. The Crème brûlée was amazing, I haven't seen it done right in many a restaurant I have been too, but this one done to perfection. The coffee, was fabulous, though at this point in the night it was kind of expected. The only downside I could possibly think of , that to be honest doesn't denigrate the experience in anyway, was the bathroom, though it was clean and well tended. A most wonderful experience, if I am ever back in Stratford upon Avon I certainly will book to ensure I get to taste the delightful ambiance of Sorrento's again.

Butterflied King Prawns in garlic. These were simply the best succulent King Prawns I have eaten in such a long time. Seriously. My Pa went for Cannelloni with ricotta and spinach and thought it wonderful. I went for the Lobster and seafood linguine special. It came with King Prawns but of the variety I'd expect which tend to be disappointing.The Lobster wasn't that extraordinary either. The atmosphere is okay but I'm sure in the evening and at weekends the place feels more lively. We asked for some pieces of bread to soak up the juices of the starters and found we got charged £2 something which I thought was somewhat steep for a couple of pieces of bread but they removed the charge without complaint so good on them for that. House wine is fine.

Good food and not too expensively priced. As with all Bella Italia's you know where you are with…read morethe menu and you get exactly what you expect. It is a little crowded inside the restaurant when it is full, as the tables are close together, but in some ways this does lend more of an atmosphere to the place.

They were super nice and accommodating to us with the chair. And then we ordered food. The service is very quick but not pushy (which I like) and the staff are extremely kind and professional. The food is a delight. I highly recommend the Lenticcie, which is kind of a lentil version of a Bolognese. It's just brilliant. My young niece swore by the margerita pizza. I can also highly recommend the panna cotta for dessert. The restaurant is airy and beautiful, with an updated half timber look. It's just lovely. I really recommend this restaurant if you have younger kids who are used to pizza and pasta as comforting food. Thank you Silvia!

There are of course a great many Italian bistros of similar name and intent.

It wasn't in York or in London. It was here in Il Bertorelli in Stratford. It was here and now its been twice. It is my second visit i feel is more worthy of mentioning, the food we ordered was more adventurous to me (the pizzas are of course top notch as are the brochette i had on my first outing but still). The vegetarian options here are exemplary and the mussels were delightful (made better by whatever addition it was they made to the garlic sauce!). the restaurant had an outside courtyard had we been interested and some really nice "almost hidden away" corner tables for those more intimate meals. I felt like i didn't break the bank, even on the wine which was also really nice (and entirely down to our attentive waitress who walked me through what i should be picking by taste). Situated just beyond the main road down to the rive it is perfect place to start late or finish early. Definitely worth a visit.

I say the service is normally outstanding, as the last time I went, though they were not overly busy, they acted like they were doing us a favour in providing us with a table and then proceeded to try to rush us to order. We then waited for over 25 minutes to get our food, and had barely finished when the plates were whipped away from in front of us and the bill presented (it was middle of the afternoon on a Saturday, so they were not preparing to close). On all previous visits though the service has been exemplary and the staff members friendly and happy in their work. I will need to go again to see if the bad experience was a one off or is now the norm

We prebooked the Christmas special, which was 3 courses, an AB, and a couple of drinks included. It was busy, but service was very slow. Our whole meal lasted 2 hours when it really shouldn't have. The tartine starter was quite good but my scallops not so much. The sauce was good, shrimp inside was good, but the scallops didn't taste fresh. After an agonizing 30 minutes after, we finally received our mains - beef Wellington. The beef was dry and overcooked, literally had to dunk in the sauce 3x before you could eat it. The pastry surrounding it was cold and borderline soggy. Effectively, the dish wasn't hot so why did it take so long to come out? The beef was accompanied by some oddly fixed flavorless salad of green beans, kale, and green onion. The side of the cauliflower was delicious. Desserts were ok - two different types of chocolate. Drinks were good. Staff member who served us was very friendly and the staff certainly looked overwhelmed at serving the level of business that day.

This was probably the worst service I have ever experienced. We had a group of 10, and they said…read morethey couldn't accommodate us at one table, so we had to split up. It was fine. We all order our food. They bring out the food and mine came with a side salad, but the waitress said I didn't order the one with the side salad which I specifically asked for. The waitress was extremely rude about it. Just scoffed me away. So we are eating, and all of a sudden the restaurant staff starts moving tables right next to us for a large party when they told us they can't accommodate large parties. There were also several large tables in the upstairs dining room that we could have sat at and out of the way from other patrons. Then they start setting out complimentary shots on the table which we also didn't get. Overall, I was extremely displeased by this place. They were so rude and annoying. We were perfectly polite and paying customers, and they treated us horribly. The glasses were dirty, they forgot several peoples orders, just unacceptable service and the waitress had a horrible attitude.
