     Food was OK. Extremely noisy as one might expect on Christmas Eve. Restaurant is not set up for large crowds. Waiters struggled to maneuver through tables and they could not help but bump into Enzo patron sitting at tables. This place has been in Naperville forever, it was much nicer before Naperville exploded. Sadly, it does not have the room to keep up with the crowd.

    We hadn’t been back to La Sorella in a few years and it was a treat to be back. The atmosphere is amazing, the food was exceptional and the service was friendly and welcoming. We’ll be back again soon. In our mind, LaSorella is a Naperville treasure

    Food quality was not consistent with past visits. Sauces were intensely spicy and garlicky, two of our party could barely eat their pasta dishes. Roast chicken undercooked and saturated in garlic. Service was very good on a very busy night. Noise level is very high, difficult to have a conversation.
    La Sorella di FrancescaResponded on 15 December 2024
    Larry, I apologize for this unpleasant experience here at La Sorella, This is the exception not the rule with us.. I would like to address this matter further, please contact me directly to resolve this in a favorable manner thank you Donny Greco GM 630-961-2706
