Sorrento is a restaurant that I have always loved. Their food has great flavor and their atmosphere is very romantic. On Sunday, February 21, 2010, I got a group together to start my crab cakes eggs benedict challenge. The service was amazing. They greeted each and every one of us to get our names and told us about the restaurant… made you feel at ease for first timers. During brunch they even had a pianist that was playing classical music as well as music from musicals like Evita.
Even the bread selection that came around had so much to choose from.
My friend Matt Chow had recommended the mussels so I had to give that a shot. The tomato based sauce it came with was full of flavor and definitely worth the $12 price tag.
Next came the main dishes to which definitely satisfied the brunch hunger. The crab cakes were definitely jumbo lump crab and with poached eggs oozing over it, how can you go wrong. The soft scrambled eggs with smoked salmon was also quite a good dish with a lot of flavor from the salmon and creme fraiche.
Overall, this is definitely a place I will hit up again. The bottomless belinis and mimosas helped too =)
