The food at Sotto Sopra is nothing short of brilliant.
Beautifully presented and tasty food. Exceptional service
A delicious carefully created meal. The cappelletti was out of this world. Service was good. A lovely evening. Pop into the art exhibition in the floor above. Stunning
We absolutely loved the decor and setting, the restaurant had a relaxed yet elegant vibe. The starters of tuna carpaccio and 4 cheese risotto were scrumptious.

Read full reviewWe absolutely loved the decor and setting, the restaurant had a relaxed yet elegant vibe. The starters of tuna carpaccio and 4 cheese risotto were scrumptious. However the restaurant week main was not well executed, as the cappelletti was doughy with walnut completely overpowering and no sign of goats cheese or honey. The dessert saved the meal, delicious. Wine selection was disappointing, too commercial with no unique wines available. Will be back to try some dishes from the main menu as it looked promising.
The restaurant week menu offered no options. Just one starter, main and dessert. None were appealing to us. The starter was raw tuna. I don’t eat raw food. The mains was vegetarian. No option for meat eaters. We ended up ordering from the main menu as we had driven out there already. Very disappointed.

About Sotto Sopra
Cuisine: Italian
Sotto is focused on providing an authentic Italian experience
Sotto is the cooler younger sister and extends the idea of the traditional Italian trattoria experience – serving Roman style (thin) pizza and handmade in-house pasta in a flamboyant, open and relaxing dining area – suitable for quick meetings, sundowners with colleagues or friends or a speedy lunch on-the-go.
Sopra
Sopra offers a luxurious dining experience. The area is decked with a luscious floor to ceiling plant wall, comfortable and cosy seating all behind glass doors that look out onto the buzzing city. It provides the perfect balance of great food and uber chic decoration.
Italian Food & Tradition
In Italian ‘Sotto’ alone means ‘Under’ and ‘Sopra’ means ‘On top’ and together the two words describe something being upside down or topsy turvy.
Sottosopra pays homage to a bold, dynamic, playful and colourful aesthetic. Plus add the glorious food.
Italian cuisine has influenced food culture around the world and is viewed as a form of art by many.
For Italians, food isn't just nourishment, it is life. "Family gatherings are frequent and often centered around food and the extended networks of families.”
