The bread was extra tasty: crisp crust with sesame seeds and a hot, fluffy, interior
Food was quite good,but the portions were on the "light" side
The swordfish had a fishy taste. Everything else was great.
Dezzie is the best and reason we come back....I do wish the lights were a little brighter there...makes reading their extensive menu hard
very good
I ordered the Filet Oscar, the oysters were delicious and cooked to perfection. Was happy to see more than the 2 oysters with this entree. My filet was undercooked,so I sent it back, cooked to perfection and so tender when it came back. This is my favorite restaurant to dine. My husband was pleased with his ribeye also.
The dining room was cold, had to leave coats on
We love coming here. Always treated like family with a heart-felt welcome from Gia and the rest of the staff. From the dinners to the sandwiches, the appetizers to the pizza, we are never disappointed. Come in and give them a try, you won't be disappointed! Be back soon...........
Great service!
We've been to this restaurant on numerous occasions and always been very satisfied, but I fear tonight's experience may be our last trip. While the food was decent, the supposedly fresh bread was stale, the salad only contained lettuce and a heavy vinegar dressing, and the wait staff left much to be desired; in fact, our waitress was so apathetic I wasn't even sure she wanted to be there or do her job! Drink orders had to be forced on her. She brought water and we had to ask if we could have something else to drink. Food was brought out promptly but the dessert experience was the worst. We asked what they had for dessert for which the waitress replied, "it's in the dessert carousel." So apparently my husband and I had to get up from our table and stand around as the carousel of desserts spun by. Not the classiest experience. To make matters even worse, we decided to split two different desserts, one chocolate and one apple strudel. Both tasted a little on the stale side but the chocolate one was not edible. It was so dry we couldn't choke it down. We told the waitress this and her reply was,"I ate it earlier and it was good to me." We also went to the restaurant on a Mon evening. She informed us that the desserts were made Sat. The dessert carousel is refrigerated but the desserts are not covered up. If I stuck a piece of chocolate cake in my fridge uncovered for 2 days it would be dried out too! We were offered no compensation for this except an offer to take a cheese Danish home, which we declined. We still had to pay the $5 for the uneaten dessert. Needless to say, until some better waitstaff and consistent food are present we won't be back. After paying $27 for beef stroganoff (which was delicious) I expect to have a better overall experience.
Love the food at Lefty's! Had an appetite for crab cakes and knew Lefty's recipe is the best!
Excellent setting in Saratoga
It took a long time to get the food
Personalized attention, very creative menu.
friendly staff, well cooked, tasty meals.
Always good food and great service
Great food but poor and extremely service
one waitress, food was a little slow coming.
Loved the Osso Bucco, but the sauce for the Salmon was way too heavy. Loved the fireplace. Service was by two waiters who were very nice, but left gaps
Had a nice romantic dinner with my husband. It was a very nice time. Would reccomend it to couples.
Service is great & they are very attentive
Friendly staff with great food.
The food there is incredible!!
Terrific Service, great food and nice ambiance. A very enjoyable experience.
food and service is excellent, it is prepared to your liking
The main reason I tried restaurnt.com was because you (Villa Sorrento) were a participant and I had eaten there before.
very warm and enviting with outstanding service. Cant wait to try it again!
They are overpriced, they added on an exorbitant tip to our bill, they didn't even refill our water glasses. We have eaten far better food and larger portions for less money elsewhere
The food and service is always fabulous at Villa Sorrento and I would recommend highly.
Great food! We'll be back!
great restaurant! Thank you restaurants.com for introducing it to me!
I have always found Villa Sorrento to be a reliable to eat Italian, well-prepared, reasonably priced food. It is a place I will return to.
Salt should be used to accent a food's flavor, not overpower it. Every item had far too much salt, among other problems. Servers should ask if uneaten meals are to be wrapped (if only for the dog) or if there was a problem with the meal.
We picked the wrong evening to visit Villa Sorrento. There was a private party of well over 50 people that had taken over the restaurant. The noise level was pretty high. The staff tried to be accomodating - moving us to a very cramped high-top table at the bar until the noise level quieted down. We were there for about 10-15 minutes until they shuffled us back to the original table. While the noise was better, it never felt like the intimate dinner we were looking to have. The waiter or staff never offered to do anything for our inconvenience - just offered to shuffle us back and forth. A gesture of something simple like complementary coffee or dessert would have gone a long way to acknowledge the fiasco. The food was decent. We ordered the tuna steak and one of the house specials (bowtie pasta with seafood). The tuna was excellent while the seafood special left a little to be desired. We dine regularly in the area and were overall unimpressed. The bread basket that was served was a bit dry and burnt.
Wonderful dining experience.
Dined on a slow Sunday evening. Food quality was good. Service very poor. Non-attentive. I sat for over 30 minutes w/out drink (water glass & wine glass empty). Dined at Lombardi's two nights prior -- hands down far superior.
Service was excellent, food was delish!!!
Great Meal! Great Service! Fabulous Italian Food!
Excellent food and service

Wine list very pricey, they charge $32 for a $10 bottle of wine!Food is GOOD!
Excellent meal and service!
Their $30 bottles of wine on their winelist you can buy down the street for less than $10 a bottle.
Good food. Nice atmosphere
the service was outstanding but the food wasn't to good
I was disappointed with the taste of the salmon special. The fish did not taste fresh. Everything else was great.
You are treated very well and the food is excellent.
This restaurant is now among my TOP favorites. The quality of food and services is supreme.The ambiance is incomparable.They have achieved the "non-commercial" atmosphere so lacking in most restaurants.A rare jewel. Irecommend it highly
Where do I start John makes sure everything is taken care of at the bar and Walter Handles the food and George makes sure you food is cooked to profection and Armondo makes sure its delivered promply
Restaurant.com procedures and limits on use of pre-paid coupons are burdensome. Whenb I purchasd $50 gift cards I assumed I could use $50. Your restrictions after the fact limit me to only $25 per visit. This is last time I would ever use restaurant.com
I thought the food, service and ambiance were fantastic.
Great Place! Walter's (manager) only interest was making sure that our dining experience was perfect! and it was!We are now "regulars" at this nice restaurant!Steven Krinsky
The restaurant was extremely noisy making it difficult to hold a conversation. Otherwise it was a very good experience.
Great food and service!
I think the food and service are excellent and enjoy eathin there
Small local restaurant in our town, convenient to home, artichoke appetizer was good, grouper fish entree was dry &overcooked, short rib entree was good, would go back for pasta next time not fish...
We were at the restaurant to celebrate our anniversary, and everything was perfect!!!
If you want to have the best dinning experience you have ever had you should try Villa Sorrento's. George will make you a meal you will never forget Walter will make sure you have a great dinning Experience and of course John will take care of all your beverage needs (at the bar) ans Sal will be there to also make sure your Dinner was spectacular. Thanks Villa Serrento's

REALLY like this place. One of the best Italian restaurants in Suffolk County. Friendly owner/manager/staff. SOLID meal. SOLID value. Would like a better wine list, but their current one is good. Looking forward to our next meal there. Won't be long...
Food, service and atmosphere were all excellent.
We had been there once before on a Sat night.The food was very good (after a 2 hr wait for table).This time it was Sun eve and was disappointed.I ordered the special which was on AngelHair pasta,but received spaghetti.My husband's dish was just OK. There were only 3 other tables of diners, but waitress was hard to flag down- never made eye contact.Hope it was just an "off" night.Will try one more time.
An overall enjoyable experience. We will be coming back.
Wonderful food - nice people
