Had lunch today at Sora My Way. Nice little spot on the Silas Deane in Wethersfield. Great open floor plan and kitchen with fantastic Italian classics playing over the speakers.
For starters we had the Supplì which is the Roman version of an Arancini. Delicious fried rice ball. Rice was cooked in a tomato sauce then mixed with mozzarella and tomatoes. Excellent way to start our meal. Light and crispy despite being fried. That was followed by the Focaccia Sandwich which is a pizza base cooked and folded in half with Mortadella in the middle. Just the perfect amount of meat, reminiscent of how sandwiches in Italy are served. One ingredient doesn’t overpower the other. They complement each other very well. The bread is crispy with a nice open crumb and a slight char, which adds a beautiful smoky flavor. Clearly it was cooked by an open flame.
The house pizza was recommend to us, so who am I to disagree. The Sora My Way is a white pizza with mozzarella, thin sliced potatoes and truffles. Excellent combination. Again, crust was cooked perfectly. Nice slight char (you know how much I love a char). Not a tradional pizza but was a great choice. The truffles and potatoes were again, a perfect pair.
We finished the meal with a couple of tall espressos.
Definitely worth your a visit. Will absolutely be back. So many more choices I...
Read moreI've heard a lot of great reviews about Soras and my family has been dying to try it. My wife is going through chemo for ovarian cancer and we received a $100 gift card from her work so we ordered dinner Monday night. While the country staff is a great guy, playing music a little too loud, the food and packaging let ALOT to be desired.
First, the dinners were stacked in the bag and the weight of them crushed each other and they ran all over my font seat.
Second, the food was sub-par. My wife got the Chicken Sorana and the chicken had no flavor, the rice was WAY over cooked, the meal was watery and there were only 3 shrimp. I had the chicken parm and that was bland and the past was again WAY over cooked and watery. My son had the linguini and meatballs and got over cooked linguini and 1 meatball.
Maybe our expectations were too high but we were very disappointed. My wife was absolutely devastated as this was supposed to be a nice dinner on her boss and it turned into a disaster. I called to let them know what happened and how the food was, even sent the attached pictures, and didn't get a response. If I don't hear back, I won't be...
Read moreI've Sora My Way a few times now, and I really want to like them, but they just mess up on too much for me to give them more than two stars. The chicken parm is good and I enjoy the homemade side of pasta. There's a generous amount of sauce and it tastes great. Unfortunately, this is where the positive points end. We tried the Sora Calzone and it is actually just horrible. I've always said "you can never screw up a calzone," but somehow they did. The calzone is half empty inside, burnt on top, undercooked on the bottom, and the filling of potato, sauce, and meat is just strange. Since this is the only calzone on their menu, I really thought this was just a normal cheese calzone, but I should have read the description more closely because it is anything bought a normal calzone. It's also strange that they don't even have a regular cheese calzone on the menu, this is it. The carbonara is okay, but I've had much better. Since I do like the sauce and the pasta, they have potential to be much better, which is why I went back a few times since...
