What People Are Saying About Sorriso

In Short – In its new, more centrally located home, this longtime Pasadena favorite stretches out over two levels, with tasteful, candlelit modernist interiors straight out of Architectural Digest. The sounds of jazz and vintage pop vocal music lend a sophisticated air, which is echoed by the leather, wood and chrome details. A large courtyard boasts a fountain, a fire pit and private dining cabanas. The kitchen offers classic Italian fare including pizza, pasta and lighter seafood and salad options. –

I REALLY DO LOVE THIS PLACE. IT IS SO NICE INSIDE AND THE COURTYARD IS BEAUTIFUL AT NIGHT. THE FOOD IS GOOD, THE SERVICE IS GOOD, AND I LOVE THEIR MARTINI LIST. YUMMY!! FRIDAY NIGHTS ARE ALOT OF FUN...THEY HAVE A DJ AND DANCING. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO EVERYONE AND I WILL GO BACK AGAIN SOON.

DISASTER

It was my 28th brithday celebration with my girlfriend. Besides the disgusting food and drinks the service/employees are awful! The waiter avoided us the entire time and never brought our orders in a timely manner. When we brought it to the attention of the manager he told us they were busy and not to bother him. Fed up my girlfriend went to the bar to order the drinks. The bartender completely ignored her and when she asked for help he shouted and called her the b*@$% word. He then proceeded to make racial comments and that she did not belong in a place like this. I am shocked that this sort of ignorance and rudeness can happen in Pasadena.

APALLED!

I recently visited the restaurant and it?s the most horrible experience in my life. Although we had reservation both the table and food was an incredibly long wait. In addition they sat us in a completely different section than we had been promised to have when I made the reservations. They continued to forget our drinks and everytime we reminded the staff they gave us a malicious response. Our waiter was more concerned with gossiping with his colleagues than assist our table. Towards the end of evening as it was getting chilly I asked the manager to turn on the heating lamp because the busboy turned it off while he was cleaning our table. He cruely refused, began snapping his fingers and basically became violent with his foul language and demeanor. In an error in judgement, we decided to stay for the birthday girl. Since the restaurant turns into a club the staff began removing our chairs from the table before we finished our desserts and drinks. This is ultimately the worse experience ever!
