I can only wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. The food is very authentic and incredibly delicate. We came across La Sosta by chance during our vacation. A cheer. Barbara & Ronaldo from Switzerland💯❤️

Lovely restaurant with the owner spending time with the customers. When we expressed our thoughts to the owner, we have been told that it's a posh restaurant and only rich people come to dine in here, so that's why it's 100% italian with the best quality products. Well, oily undercooked food and wine, that you could buy for a 6£ in the supermarket... I guess we weren't rich enough to see the value of it. In conclusion, it's a vanity fair for locals (rich ones) who like to believe that they are eating quality italian food. I absolutely adore Italy and italian food, and I have visited Italy many times. Unfortunately, we couldn't experience a real italian gastronomy to the full, maybe because the cook wasn't italian...

I was here on the 22nd of December and I must say the food is delicious. I had the tempura prawns with sweet chilli jam as a starter,freshly made cannelloni as a main course and Tiramisu as dessert.I strongly recommend this restaurant as one of the best in Derry and will certainly be back.

It's rare I write a bad review for a restaurant but this was the most disappointing meal I've had in the last few years. We went at 8pm and were not served our main until 10.20pm and we all just wanted to go home. When it did come out there was no apology for the wait and some of the younger staff need more training - forgotten drinks orders and a shrug and "aye dunno" when I asked how long food might be. The food itself was almost inedible and very bland. If it took so long to cook I would have hoped it wouldnt be dry mince in a canelloni with some tinned tomato dried up on top. I said this to the manager and there was no attempt to rectify this so I paid and left. Avoid and go to Brown's if you like food.

Lovely meal, really excellent quality food and very good wine selection. Prices on menu online are about £5 per dish cheaper than reality expect £130 for 3 courses for 2 people (incl wine). But despite that we will definitely go back. (No issues with service or atmosphere but always save 5 stars for something really special)

Pastas were great. And it was the best tiramisu I've ever had in my life. Waiters and chefs were very interested. It is a very organized restaurant. Most importantly, it was very, very clean.

Amazing food and service with an extensive wine list. One of the best steaks I've had anywhere in the world, it was truly excellent. Partner had the fish main and raved about both the fish and the sauce. Was very quiet when we were there so not much atmosphere though it is a nice layout and could get lively on busier nights - definitely worth a visit for some fine dining in Derry

Ate here for St. Valentines Night. A truly authentic Italian dining experience. Haven't eaten here in about 10 years, I don't know why I stayed away for so long. Had a superb night. The best Ravioli I have ever eaten, the wine list is excellent. The staff were excellent, and it was lovely speaking to the owner Claudio. They suggested that we finish the night out with a Sambucca Coffee, which although was challenging at the start, was ultimately rewarding!

I walked into this restaurant and the first thing the manager said to me was, “are you okay? What are you doing here?” As if I didn’t belong in the restaurant (saw people wearing t shirts, so it obviously did not have a dress code). The manager then proceeded to tell me, after I waited and stood for about 5 minutes, that they do not have any tables available for another 2 hours (when several tables at the restaurant were obviously empty at 8pm on a weekday night). Rude and judgmental staff. Even if the food is good (I will never know, and do not care to know), with this attitude you’ll not be able to thrive in one of the most competitive industries in the world that relies heavily on the quality of service. Good luck.

From the outside the place doesn't look as good as it deserves, and I would advise the very kind owner to take action. Inside, however, the environment is pleasant. As a matter of principle, when I go abroad I never go to Italian restaurants because when things go well they are a disappointment, unless I go to places that are clearly out of my pocket. Instead, this evening we are here, at La Sosta. I'll get straight to the point: we had a splendidly good dinner, at a fair price. The dishes are excellent and very well prepared. The ingredients are also excellent, as are the wines. If I were to pass through Derry again, I would definitely know which restaurant to stop in: this one.

Yo y mi novio fuimos a La Sosta después de leer excelentes críticas y estaba realmente emocionado. Estaba claro desde el momento en que llegamos que los ingleses no eran bienvenidos. Tomó 30 minutos recibir una botella de vino y una hora más para recibir un plato decepcionante (francamente) de carne seca del tamaño de un entrante, mientras que todos los que nos rodeaban habían comido 2-3 platos en este momento. Cuando intenté preguntar cuánto tiempo duraría la comida, la camarera me gritó algo en italiano sin detenerme a hablar o incluso mirarme a los ojos. Es una pena porque la comida que nos rodeaba estaba deliciosa. Habíamos esperado tanto para el entrante que nos levantamos, pagamos la factura y nos fuimos temprano.

My family have been visiting La Sosta since it opened and whilst our visits remain sporadic it really is one of the few places that we visit where quality, friendliness and service combine to assure an always memorable occasion. We have as a family eaten all over the world from San Francisco to new york to Rome, Berlin, Paris. Dublin, London and Barcelona to name a few and nowhere has such resonance for us. Rustic, tasty food, high quality and above all personal service blend into one to offer an experience few would not be willing to revisit.

When we walked into the restaurant , it was as if we had walked into a typical "trattoria" in Italy. It was such a delightful change for us, as we had been traveling throughout Ireland for a month's time. The food was wonderful and it really did feel like we were in a small family restaurant in Italy. We had pasta dishes, garlic bread, salad, and dessert. Perfetto!

Beautiful meal with authentic Italian staff. Extremely attentive and excellent service. Penne pasta with rabbit was not my favourite dish. My partners dish looked and tasted better. The competition in Derry is pretty tight in the restaurant scene lately. Lots are offering large discounts. If you want a really special night out and a varied and tasty meal, then I recommend La Sosta. Just be aware they are not trying to compete with the busier restaurants in town so be prepared to pay more realistic prices.

Visited here with my mum. Found the entrance down a small alleyway a bit odd at first, but when we were seated we had a lovely view over hilly Derry and there was a nice atmosphere. Lovely selection of fresh italian breads to the table. The service was a little slow however we didn’t mind and enjoyed savouring each course- I hate being rushed! I asked for bruschetta which wasn’t really on the menu but it wasn’t a problem! Had 2 pasta dishes including cannelloni and found all the food very fresh and very intensely flavoured. It was clearly homemade with care and attention! We had slice of lime pie for dessert which again was very authentic and homemade. Just like mama used to make! Lovely owners, fresh flavoursome food and lovely authentic italian experience so for these reasons I’d definitely recommend a visit!
