Sorrentinos in Northampton

Friendly staff, great food, but very dated please throw away the dead grasses in the vase on the tables and replace bulbs in the light fittings.

Bruschietta and lasagne were real good. Service was great. Staff very friendly.

Had a lovely meal with the wife & friends, we were all very full afterwards, staff were excellent and always available for help and advice. My only complaint from our meal was NO custard option for bread and butter pudding desert 😔

Amazing place to go, typical simple Italian, all the food is out of this world. Always love to come back. Very friendly staff and owners too, we will be back again. Thank you guys

Can’t believe we’ve lived here for years and never knew this place was here. Had some absolutely incredible food tonight, best Italian food we’ve ever had. Everything was tasty there was nothing to complain about. Staff were really attentive and friendly. Loved the atmosphere, very warm, cosy and intimate. Will definitely be coming here again!!

Food was excellent. I had the seafood in a broth which was delicious. Wished I had a tupperware container to take some of the broth home. Very attentive and helpful waiting staff. Lovely evening.

A phenomenal friendly service and food that was even better . First time in Northampton from Norfolk and if I'm ever back here Sorrento's is where I will be eating.

A great little restaurant offering Generous portions of excellent Italian food accompanied by friendly service and a chilled laid back atmosphere.

Very good restaurant with taste high quality food.

I've just had some of the most delicious food I've ever had. The Muscles were absolutely fantastic and the steak was so mouth watery Thank you very much

Service was brilliant and food excellent. Would recommend and hope to return soon.

Excellent Italian cuisine excellent service welcoming and beautiful location with large room on the first floor to absolutely try

Visiting Northampton after 20 years away I was disappointed in the decline of the town with many familiar shops and restaurants now sadly lost. However, I was reassured to see Sorrentinos still going strong. I ate in here with my partner and can honestly say, it has to be the best place in town by far. The quality of the food is great and the service by the staff is welcoming and friendly. Prices are reasonable given the high level of the food. All in all we spent £64 on 2 beers, 2 starters and 2 pizza which I think is remarkable value.

Came for dinner, and didn’t disappoint. We had a sharing platter for 2, and tomato bruschetta to start. It was super fresh tasting, and plenty big enough! We would’ve been happy enough with the starters alone. My steak was cooked perfectly (I went for medium rare), and my partners lasagne was rich and full of flavor. We attempted dessert, but only left some as we couldn’t physically eat anymore!!! There is no parking, but St Mary’s car park is close by (2 min walk), so not too bad. We ended the night at gravity and crazy golf. Service was good, and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed. We weren’t pestered to hurry up and finish our drinks once we had paid, which made us enjoy it more as we got to chat and relax with the remainder of our wine. We will be back!

Lovely place with incredibly fast service and tasty food. I was surprised how friendly and fast the staff are. The young lad serving us went above and beyond to make sure we had a good evening, definitely worth visiting!!

Very nice restaurant, the food was delicious and the service was exceptional!

Dirty place. Taste less food. Expansive. Dirty toilets. I do not recommend this place.

Probably the best Italian restaurant in Northampton if not easy Midlands. Food was amazing with a cosy atmosphere.

This is my second trip based on a previous excellent experience. We saw no less than 4 waitresses in the evening. Our drinks stayed topped up, the service was FIRST CLASS and the food is always consistent and excellent. I smell a third trip in my future.

The finest Italian experience outside of Roma. Northamptonshire’s hidden gem!

Lovely little Italian restaurant with big, delicious portions and friendly and attentive staff. Definitely go with a good appetite!

Food was great but it was clear they were struggling tonight as the service was very slow.

Another fantastic meal. We have never seen disappointed in all the years that we have been going. Great food, friendly staff would highly recommend to anyone

First time at this restaurant celebrating our grandson's 18th birthday. Service was great, food was really tasty and generous portions. Can recommend the lasagne gorgonzola. Everyone enjoyed their meals and would definitely visit again soon.

Very nice meal. So tasty and staff brilliant. Would definitely recommend

Amazing food, a real hidden gem. Friendly staff, great service. An absolute must if you visiting Northampton especially for the MotoGP. See you again next year

Friendly staff, food was excellent. Pity they didn't have sorbet as desert. We hope to be back soon.

Had a lovely evening out with the family and chose Cannelloni Versuvio as my main dish, which I’d highly recommend. Lovely atmosphere and very pleasant staff.

Food was fantastic, service spot on an all round very enjoyable experience! We had lasagne, spaghetti bolognese and chicken and spinach pasta and each was seasoned to perfection! We cannot wait to go again!!

The food was lovely, and prices I feel are a little bit steep but fair enough. Shame we were put on a tiny table next to a large group, kept having our table walked into, and couldn't hear ourselves have a conversation.

Really delicious food. We went here because it was convenient for the cinema, but will definitely go again. All the dishes were beautifully prepared, plentiful, and very tasty. Highly recommend.

Generous portions of hearty Italian food, with friendly service and reasonable prices. Good for groups or a get together. Bustling location upstairs on a corner.

Good selection the pasta is really tasty

I have been coming to Sorrentinos for occasions over the last 25 years, the best Italian food you can get in Northampton with a great team of staff who are extremely accommodating and provide sound recommendations. I personally reccomend the Itallian Experience menu if you are dining with a large group as it allows you to eat in the traditional Italian way with friends and also adds an element of fun to your meal, especially if you let the chef choose your meals for you.

Everything was very tasty, thanks,one of the best kitchen in town...

Food and servive were goog but the ambiance downstairs was less impressive, hence the rating.

Great food and excellent service in a busy little restaurant. Perfect for our pre-show meal and so I would recommend.

This was one of my favourites but hadn't visited for a while but was pleased to be back.

This is an excellent venue for the family celebration today. It caters for all ages. The food was very good and worth the visit. Thank you for the delicious meal. The staff are friendly and very efficient when dealing with several age groups and getting all the meals to the table. No one had to wait very long.

Truly amazing food, great little place, service was a little slow but that's my only minor criticism. Would definitely go back for more incredible Italian food

First time and the starter was exquisite. The main course of Lasagne was beautifully cooked and well presented. Service was good. Definitely going back

Now been regulars for almost 20years. Always a good enjoyable meal. Excellent atmosphere staff attentive. R&B

The food here is always amazing! Staff are very friendly and attentive, with such a warm, welcoming vibe! Can’t recommend enough!

Food is excellent, service is excellent.... The views out across the street are interesting. Just a bit noisy some times as its tiled

Strange service, it was like talking via satellite. Then when I paid, 2 people were staring at the card machine! Food was nice, prefer something with a little green on the plate. Very loud on a Friday night.

Get yourself down to this excellent venue asap. It’s first class.

Fantastic meal, went out and the food was exquisite

Nothing to do with Italian cuisine

Our favourite Italian in town. Excellent menu choice and a nice intimate space for a quiet meal ❤️

Visited here last night for a pre theatre dinner with friends . Early bird menu brilliant and great value - spoilt for choice. The service was friendly and attentive. Great family run restaurant…would highly recommend.

The food quality and staff class has to be experienced

Fillet minion is heavenly! Although it was £29 plus £12 surcharge if on early bird menu!

I came here with my friend for dinner and after living in Northampton for all my life, and hearing rave reviews, I feel ashamed as to never have tried this restaurant before. It wasn’t overly busy, when we turned up which wasn’t an issue because everything ran smoothly. The decor of the restaurant is rustic, and you definitely get the feel of Italy. I’ve got to be honest, it’s not the cheapest, but as it’s an independent business, it’s too be expected but it’s worth it. We ordered our food with a friendly waiter. There wasn’t an abnormally long weight between the starters and main courses, which was perfect. As I come from an Italian background from my Mum side, I’m always a bit apprehensive when eating out at Italian restaurants BUT the food really was superb, it tasted like my grandads cooking. Overall, I would highly recommend coming here if you want authentic Italian food with attentive service.

Food ok. Restaurant tatty. Waitress laughed when I asked if I could have a soft egg on my £15 pizza (pizza ovens are apparently very hot-but ah, they discovered you could take it out and break an egg on it!). If I had paid about half to 2/3 of the price max they would have had a better review. The most massively overpriced meal I have had for a very long time. £200 (not including tip . 5 people, 2 courses, 2 beers, bottle of house wine and 2 desserts. I’m not tight but that’s pretty extortionate! I would walk past and find a pizza express!

I have been visiting Sorentino's for many years, A warm friendly welcoming atmosphere and great food. We were a table of 6 and started with the Antipasto Sorrentino a mixed starter Prosciutto, salami, mozzarella, tomato, melon, avocado and olives with dressing, a very generous serving with wonderful black and green olives. For the main I had Lasagne All’Americana, a beef Lasagne, with a spicy twist, again generous portions with a rich sauce. My sons had the Seafood Don Giovanni, always a favourite with them and Penne Con Pollo A La Sorrentino, and my freind had the Chicken breasts wrapped in prosciutto with a cream sauce. Again all very generous portions. Great service, tasty food, wonderful evening. We will be back.

We have dined at this restaurant numerous times over the years, so thought it was about time I left a review. We pre-booked a table as it was for the Saturday (the week before Christmas), so expected it to be busy. It was. The restaurant is situated over two floors and we always dine on the top floor, as for us it's the best atmosphere and setting. We were greeted by the owner and chef, who has always treated us the same, always friendly and welcoming and treats you special. If he has time he will always come to the table for a chat. He showed us upstairs and we were greeted again by friendly smiling staff who gave us a choice of two tables. We ordered drinks and time was taken to order food. For starter we shared a ciabatta garlic bread, which comes as 6 slices. Perfect for a starter for two. For mains I ordered the lasagne gorgonzola, which is a firm favourite of mine. It's one of the only restaurants where the lasagne comes perfectly cooked on a plate, instead of as a hot pot. My wife ordered the penne con gorgonzola fungi e arucola. Again a firm favourite and also was perfectly cooked. For desserts I ordered a chocolate pudding with cream and my wife had a lemon cheesecake. Both were delicious. The bill came to just over £73 for a shared starter, 2 mains, 2 desserts and 2 glasses of wine. Considering the excellent atmosphere, nice friendly staff, excellent quality food it's really good value. This is one of the rare, family owned restaurants that has consistently served excellent food with superb service over many years. I really hope it continues to do so. It really is a hidden gem.

Authentic Italian, lovely little gem of a place. Staff were friendly, food was amazing. Will definitely go back

Great place to have authentic Italian food. Don't look further if you want a good pizza or pasta😊

As stated on another review, dont be put off by the takeaway next door. This is a lovely small restaurant for an intimate dinner with family or SO. Food is very reasonably priced, especially since, as far as i know, its traditional homemade Italian food. I ordered the bolognese which was very big portion, waiter did warn me not to order more since there would be alot of food. appreciate the honesty to avoid food waste. friendly service, nice atmoshphere.

We booked a table for a Saturday evening at 8pm a month before. On arrival at the restaurant we found they were over booked waited 20 minutes but then were told the previous customers had ordered more wine. We left and walked over to another Italian restaurant Andrea's and had a lovely meal and also more reasonably priced.

What a wonderful evening! We were a table of 4 celebrating our daughter’s 18th birthday. We were first- timers at Sorrentinos and will definitely be back. For us it was the perfect Italian restaurant with so much more than pasta and pizza. The menu has something for everyone, from a quick pre theatre or early bird meal to a special occasion. The seafood Sorrentino was delicious! The service was efficient and professional and there was a nice buzz in the restaurant. Thoroughly recommended.

We Went there tonight and got turned away, Phoned them, said they have space…. Interesting

As someone with a big appetite, I rarely find a restaurant that can satisfy my hunger fully; Sorrentino's did just that. And on top of having a delicious, filling meal, we received excellent service throughout. I don't know why I left it so long to visit here, but I'll be a regular now!

Great food, massive portions. Evening early bird menu excellent value.

Took my wife and daughter for a meal and stumbled upon Sorrentino's. We chose from the early bird menu, which was a set menu which included a starters and a main, a childs main dish which included ice cream and my wife and I had 2 drinks each. To get a bill of £80 at the end is extortionate. Don't think I've been anywhere before and spent anywhere near that for a family of 3 in Northampton! Food was ok, but so expensive

So, it’s with regret to rate this restaurant so low. Myself and wife visited Saturday night, not overly busy and plenty of staff. Ordered two mains and one starter to come with mains. Took a little while to come out but that didn’t matter as...

This is our ‘go to’ restaurant for family celebrations and Friday rugby night matches. Visited on Friday and as ever lovely welcome, great food and exceptional service.

First visit. My wife and I went for a late lunch and were alone (as customers) in the restaurant - the service was impeccable and the food was lovely. Definitely will be going back again.

Nice little restaurant. Great food all reasonably priced. Gorgonzola Lasagne is amazing 👏

Lovely place and food was amazing.

Fantastic Italian food, great friendly service, good wine at a sensible price. Fed 4 hungry chaps before a concert. Would we go back? Absolutely!!!!

Went there for the first time and I'll be back! The food was delicious, the menu extensive and the service was good. A most enjoyable meal. Compliments to the chef

The pizzas at Sorrentino's are, to me, the best in Northampton. Its the bases that do it although I had the pepper filet steak last night. Strange that they don't do fries. Quirky place to eat right next to the cinema. The food comes out fast and the team are cheerful. Ideal if your going to a show afterwards.

Always an amazing meal. I think the portion sizes might have become even bigger. Had a fantastic selection of dishes. Great gluten free options too. Has been a favourite for nearly 20 years.

It has nice Italian dishes which are really really nice best Italian restaurant in Northampton town so far

We visited as a large family party, we were made very welcome & seated around a large square table. We had the banquet menu which was perfect for both adults and children. The food was freshly cooked to order, piping hot & delicious. The service...

We had a great time! I recommend it with confidence! The food was very good! The staff were friendly and nice.

This is a fabulous fabulous restaurant. The food is excellent. The staff are so lovely, attentive and welcoming. The restaurant has a fantastic feel to it and really feels like stepping into Italy! I cannot rave about this place enough my favourite restaurant in Northampton!

The garlic bread was tasteless. The tomato in the pasta was aciditic. The portion was very generous but the taste was missing.Overall we were not impressed at all. Not value for money.

Another great meal from the team at Sorrentino's. Tricolore salad starter was fresh & tasty, the Cod wrapped in Prosciutto was packed with flavour. Looking forward to our next visit.

We have visited Sorrentinos for years and it never fails to deliver on both the excellent quality of food and service. I wish I could eat there every evening! Craig is an outstanding chef. We will certainly be returning again soon.

Terrible food, charge too much for drinks and sides. I ended up going to the kebab shop round the corner and found their food far better and cheaper than this place! How this place has so many five star reviews is beyond me!

Ordered cannelloni gorgonzola with no mention of tomato sauce in menu, although i dont mind tomato my partner ordered this meal to avoid tomato,it was smothered all around and on top so he didn't eat it,i ate half as it wasn't nice overall.drinks overpriced Food

Family run Italian restuarant with a vibrant atmosphere, excellent food and table service. Starters seemed pricey until they arrived; great portion sizes and brimming with flavour particularly the muscles dish. Huge! House wine was excellent also. There's an upstairs and downstairs but most customers are set upstairs with a nice view of the crossing, so it appears emptier from the front than it actually is, i assume downstairs is an overflow. Been here 3 times now and loved every minute. Will definately recommend.

Still good, just not as good as maybe 4 years ago. Food was good, staff friendly etc..

Thanks for another lovely meal to celebrate our anniversary. Food as ever was amazing and the atmosphere the same. We have always had such great food here and would highly recommend

The service was quick and excellent took my kids here to eat and the food was very tasty. I would recommend it to anyone who fancies a great Italian food experience, and also to anyone that just wants to enjoy amazing food in general! The owner is an amazing guy, thank you guys for an amazing evening.

Can't believe I've lived in Northampton most my life and I've only just discovered Sorrentino! If you love Italian- you must try. Rustic restaurant, across 2 floors. It got pretty busy towards the evening so would recommend booking. Me and my friend went early and took advantage of the early bird menu which is really good value for money. (Not sure whether this is available all week or set days). The portion sizes are generous and the food was delicious! We had 2 bottles of wine and 3 courses and it came to just over £80 altogether. The staff here are warm and welcoming- absolutely would come here again! (May have to wear joggers next time as my stomach was so full by the end) 🤣

Really accommodating of vegan options. Our waitress Anna was really polite and helpful! The staff went out of their way to bring out a dessert with a candle for our birthday guest too!

Food was excellent as always. Desert is always a must!

I can't believe I lived in Northampton for 20 years and have never before been to this fab restaurant. The quality of the food and service was excellent. I will be back and recommending it.

I'm from West and we loved food and service was amazing and staff are helpful

Very impressed with the food. We requested mussels, which aren't on the party menu anymore - and they obliged. They went the extra mile for us. Lovely staff too. Will definitely come back again.

The decor is a bit dated but the food more than made up for that. The main menu had plenty of choice, full of the usual Italian favourites with a few extra dishes I’d not seen before. We didn’t opt for a desert and if I was being critical that was one part of the menu didn’t have much of a choice but I’ve often found that in Italian themed restaurants. The service was very good, we didn’t have to wait long for the food either, waitresses were polite and friendly, the food arrived hot served in preheated bowls and plates. Price wise it was average, a price you’d be happy to pay specially when the taste was as good as it was. Main courses with sides and one drink each averaged £25 a head.

Pre-theatre dinner - what a menu! Want to go back and try the lot and as I reviewer said, wish it was closer to home! Service was great, food was excellent and lovely atmosphere. Nothing fancy about the venue, and was a wee bit unsure...

Good food, but massive portion sizes so take that in to account!

A gem of a restaurant hidden away! Superb food! Great value meals before 6pm.

Fantastic value for money and the food was great

Great food Great service.. highly recommend.
