    This was our first experience here. Let me start by saying the service was excellent. The wait staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a most enjoyable experience. The risotto was delicious. But the main course was even better. I had a delmonico steak that was five stars along with potato puree. My wife had a filet that would absolutely melt in your mouth. We would definitely recommend Gordon Ramsay’s to anyone. Very impressed.

    Christmas Day was made very special by Sotto Sopra. From the ambiance of this beautifully decorated 1850 building, to the wonderful staff, each with a smile to greet and serve you. But the food; that was the star of the day! The calamari was exceptional and definitely not you mama's calamari! It's a must have. And the goat cheese salad, amazing! The seafood pasta was loaded with lobster, crab and shrimp, and swirled in a luxurious sauce. The pork shank with risotto was very tasty and very filling. We ordered the the bread pudding and cheesecake to go as we were so full after our meal, and will have it this morning with our coffee. I just know both will be a great start to the day. Thanks to Sotto Sopra for making our Christmas day so special.
