SOTTO REVIEWS
We had a wonderful experience at Sotto for my birthday treat. Cocktails are delightful. The appetizers were way more flavorful than I expected. My steak was tender and cooked just to my preference. The ambience was warm sexy. The Waiter, hostes and manager were very attentive to customers. Definitely Top of my list of Cincis finest.
The restaurant was really dark but the food was delicious! Pricey but worth it. My server constantly checked in on how we were doing! Recommend the steak in the photo (forgot the name of it and the honey bread thing!! so good.
Sotto is a treat, highly recommend visiting if you are in town. Get reservations ahead of time since they reguly book up. All the pasta is made in house and tastes very fresh.

MAGGIANO'S LITTLE ITALY REVIEWS
Our favorite Italian restaurant! We shared the Marco’s Meal for Two, which comes with a choice of an appetizer or two side salads, two classic entrees, and a dessert. We got Caesar side salads, lasagna, chicken fettuccine Alfredo, chocolate layered cake, and the dessert sampler. Everything was absolutely delicious, but the lasagna and tiramisu were our favorites! Thankfully, the closest restaurant to us is a ways away! It’s dangerously good! Cannot wait to come back for a date night.
This was an excellent dining experience! Of course, Mama's Lasagna was a great choice, but their Alfredo is a #1 choice for a #1 pasta dinner as well! Really, you can't go wrong, because there are NO bad choices... I suggest the Butter Cake for dessert, it's great too! Lol...
It was my first time at Maggiano's. It was quite enjoyable. The food taste great. The seating and atmosphere were superb. The server was pleasant. I would recommend it.

VIA VITE REVIEWS
Italian restaurant located on Fountain Square. The Lasagna is only served on Friday and was absolutely delicious. We sampled all the sides and with the exception of the brussel sprouts, they were not very good. Broccolini was hard to chew. The eggplant parmagiana and the tagliatelle bolognase were good as was the lobster tortellini. Skip the sourdough bread, it's pretty dry. The bread pudding and Gelato were very good. Overall would recommend.
We came in for their Easter Brunch, which I thought was priced well at $40 per person. They had several breakfast offerings, a few different pastas, and a carving station. We definitely enjoyed the pasta the most! I loved the bolognese, and my husband loved the gnocchi. Our service was good and the atmosphere was very nice overlooking Fountain Square.
Server was great. I had the 1/2 Cesar salad, fried calamari starter, and the Lasagna. The calamari starter was seasoned well w/ a little bit of heated spice. I went there to try the lasagna which is only served on Fridays. The lasagna tasted very rich w/ all of the cheese. I thought it was a generous portion. Next time I’ll try the lamb shank.
