The best prime rib I’ve had anywhere. I tried a bite of a steak too and it was over the top. It’s a real gem! The owners are very hard working and creative. I highly recommend it!… beer is great too.

Another great evening at Atlas Fare! Despite being full and busy for the staff, we were well attended, quickly served and had exceptional food! A few groups were boisterous so the noise level was high but we had a wonderful time. One of the best restaurants anywhere and most foods on the menu are gluten free😀. HIGHLY recommend!!!

About the restaurant

Sorrento’s Ristorante at Tsillan Cellar’s owner, Dr. Bob Jankelson, admits that the food of Italy captured him before he developed his interest in wine. Dozens of teaching trips to Italy instilled an appreciation of Italian cuisine paired with food friendly wine shared with friends and family. The same meticulous attention to detail evident in Tsillan Cellars stunning Italian architecture and grounds, transfers to a kitchen that brings world class dining to the shores of Lake Chelan. In winter, the inviting Italian fireplace and panoramic views of Lake Chelan and snow clad mountains blend with award winning food and wine to leave indelible memories. Outstanding ambiance, food, wine and service--- four reasons Sorrento’s Ristorante at Tsillan Cellars was named OpenTable Top 100 Scenic Restaurants in America in 2014. We were named WA State Winery of the Year 2020 by Wine Press Northwest! We look forward to your visit.
