★★★★★ 5.0 Anna Raulets · Jan 2026

We really enjoyed the atmosphere at Sorrel 💚 It wasn’t overly busy, which created a wonderful sense of privacy and calm. The service was attentive and thoughtful — the waitstaff genuinely cared about our experience and were always ready whenever we needed anything, without being intrusive. The flavors were beautifully executed. In particular, the truffle cockerel pasta stood out — rich, balanced, and memorable. That said, I do hope the restaurant continues to refine certain aspects. The desserts felt underwhelming for a Michelin-level restaurant — during our visit, there were only two ice cream–based options, which came across as a bit too simple and uninspired for this caliber. 🍷The wine list could also benefit from further development, especially with more vintage selections.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Leah · Feb 2026

We recently celebrated an early Valentine’s Day at Sorrel, and overall the experience felt fairly average for a Michelin one-star restaurant. Location-wise, it’s in a relatively safe neighborhood. We arrived a little after 5 PM on a weekday and were lucky enough to find very close street parking. The interior ambience is pleasant — tables aren’t particularly far apart, but the dim lighting creates a sense of privacy and comfort without feeling stiff or overly formal.

Excellent service, wonderful atmosphere, the food was delicious, especially the non-alcoholic drinks pairing. But the next day we woke up and our mouths were very dry as if we ate too much salty food. Please maybe tune down the salt a bit.

★★★★★ 5.0 bleep bloop · Aug 2025

A superb fine dining experience. Had the privilege of enjoying the summer tasting menu. The staff was on point throughout service. The kitchen staff worked like a military unit. Everything was prepared and presented with care and class. Especially loved the focus on ingredients over flash, no over the top garnishes like gold flake or out of place caviar for the sake of a price hike. Just quality cuisine prepared with passion.
