My lady is vegan and she called ahead and they were very accommodating and they prepared a delicious meal for her. I had the French onion soup, which was outstanding and the red snapper delicious.

    The food was amazing. There is nothing else that could be said. We had a little mix up with the drink order, but our server took care of it and us right away, and also worked through the rest of the staff to fix the issue for future customers. That to me is way above and beyond. The environment was wonderful. Despite being busy, and the moderate noise level, I could still hold a conversation with my date, and it did not take away from the experience. I will definitely keep Sorella in mind for future special occasions. Well done!
