    We had a Superb experience at Alfios for our anniversary. Great details from printed menus to glass of bubbles and a dessert. Service was impeccable, specially Leonor. All work in harmony. The Sommelier recommended the right wine for our food. The empanadas are a must. Creative and delicious. The short ribs were soft, tender and delicious. The gnocchi soft and tender. The bolognese departed a bit too much from the traditional recipe, by making it smoky and sweet it reminded us more to BBq than bolognese. Still delicious but a bit too creative. Anyway a great place, great service, excellent food. Will be back

    Max was fantastic! Service and courses were timed impeccably, and everything was delicious. We had a wonderful time bringing first-time guests with us to celebrate their birthdays. They were as wowed by the entire experience as we expected they would be. We are so excited each time we have the opportunity to bring out-of-town guests to dine at Sotto.

    Everything there was great. The food, the staff and the atmosphere. We had been told by multiple people of how great the food was and ie did not disappoint. All of our questions were answered and we were able to taste a few wines before we decided on one. The portions were perfect and we all really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.
