SottoVoce: Reviews & Ratings
On vacation in NYC, we passed through Brooklyn. The food here is particularly delicious: special mention for the lasagna and the slice of apple pie with cinnamon ice cream. If you want to taste Italian cuisine this restaurant is a must. Thank you for your kindness and your smile!
This is my favorite meal I’ve ever had in NYC. We selected this restaurant purely based on a craving for pasta and the fact that we could have our dog outdoors with us. It was the GREATEST decision we ever made. The service was authentic, genuine and we shared a true human connection throughout our lunch with the GM. The food was incredible. We ate every single bite! The artichoke appetizer was so fresh and flavorful. He shared their “magic sauce” with us with bread and it was impossible to stop eating it. I had the penne alla vodka which I will forever dream about. My husband had a homemade pasta with sausage, mushrooms and a cream sauce. We were totally blown away by the flavors and quality of the ingredients. The tiramisu was like eating a literal cloud, so light and fluffy! I can’t say enough nice things about SottoVoce. I highly recommend coming here for lunch or dinner! I’ll be back every time we come to New York.
I just came back from traveling in Italy and this place rivals the restaurants I ate at in Rome and Sardinia! The best Italian food I’ve had in New York so far after 3 years living here. I had a special ravioli with burrata inside and a Gorgonzola sauce with poached pears. So unique and incredible. The service was very friendly and authentic. I don’t live close by but I will be making a special trip back out specifically to eat here!!
Words cannot express how amazing this place is, especially the owner who is so welcoming and always happy to go over the menu specials of the day. I wish I took more photos but was too busy enjoying my food and drinks. Will come back again 1000/10
My sister and I are regulars here. This is hands down our favorite Italian restaurant in Brooklyn! We’ve tried many different dishes on the menu, and each one has been phenomenal! And, make sure you try their delicious homemade desserts!! Not only is the food amazing, but the ambience and service are bar none. This restaurant has the best manager there is! He always makes us feel right at home and his energy is contagious. He is so warm and welcoming and ensures that you have the best dining experience. We’d eat here daily if we could!
Went to Soto Voce when we were staying in Brooklyn for a few days—met up with our son-in-law’s parents for a late lunch. The food was great, but the experience was even better!! Our server was terrific and the whole experience was a treat. We ordered lasagna, pappardelle, and ravioli as well as appetizers (calamari, rollatini) and dessert (sorbet, tiramisu, and hazelnut and cinnamon ice cream, which was my favorite). Not a bad dish in the bunch. I’d love to go back, but we’re in the last 24 hours of our stay. If we come back to stay in Brooklyn again, we’ll come back to Sotto Voce, for sure!
Simply Superb! The food is downright delicious. Take one bite and be transported to a traditional Italian home cooked meal in Nonna's kitchen. Although there were only 2 people serving all tables during our visit, the service was warm and friendly. The bread is fresh, crispy toasted crust, soft and delicate inside, served with a delicate sweet tomato sauce mixed with herbs and olive oil. Must try - the tastiest bruschetta. Calamaris - fresh, cooked to perfection and served with fried zucchini. The vodka sauce and pasta was one of the best I have savored. Also recommend the pesto sauce. The Tiramisu, very delicious, is worth mentioning -- a good portion to share if you are full from your meal but still have space for some sweets. SottoVoce exceeded my expectations for a NY Italian restaurant. You'll be glad you visited.
Being my first time in this neighborhood, I had no expectations. We read the menu outside, it seemed to have some appealing pasta dishes, and thought, why not? Upon entering we could not have felt more welcome, and quickly we were shown to a really good table. Excellent first impression. The Spaghetti Rustici was so good I’m still thinking of it 7 hours later. Freshness, balance, presentation... all brilliant. The Apple pie and espresso completed what I had now expected. Fresh, authentic, and clearly prepared thoughtfully with great care. As if I was at a dinner party for a friend who was a superb cook.
