Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in St. Albert

Always very satisfied with everything. Outstanding service and food

So.... Open Table asked me to provide a review of my dinner at Sorrentino's yesterday. I was busy and pressed for time but, it was so good that, my conscience would not allow me to pass this by. So here 'goes; I was there yesterday, Friday evening before the hockey game. My friend was conservative and selected the Cesare salad and the Pear-Gorgonzola Ravioli in Sambuca Rose sauce. It was excellent, as expected. The pasta dishes here are always excellent and, the creativity they apply to something that has become so familiar can be easy to overlook. If you're here and, not sure what to try, you can never go wrong with the pasta menu. I on the other had wanted to try something less conventional and went with the beet salad and lamb. It was fantastic! The beets were perfectly prepared and served with a combination of walnuts, arugula, goat cheese and julienned carrot that surprised me in the best way possible. All dressed in an excellent balsamic vinaigrette and with generous wedges of bocconcino. If I had left the restaurant after that, I would have been sated and smiling but, I didn't. I also had the lamb sirloin. A cut that can be very difficult to do correctly but, they did it perfectly. The lamb was tender and flavourful and served in a fantastic demi with gnocchi and asparagus that were perfectly finished on the grill. It had been a busy day and I was thirsty. Though not normally a beer drinker, our server was able to recommend a light crisp beer that fit both my thirst and the meal so perfectly that I quaffed back two of them. I didn't ask what the beer was, I didn't need to know. My server knew what I needed and, next time I go there, I'm sure he'll be equally prescient. This was not my first time at Sorrentino's downtown and it certainly will not be my last. The food here is consistently excellent and matched only by the outstanding service from their friendly and welcoming staff. Thank you to everyone at Sorrentino's you guys are amazing!

Amazing! We started our date night here and then went the Oilers game. Sat in the lounge and had the BEST service! All of the staff were very kind, explained how the restaurant worked, knowledgeable, and friendly. I would definitely come back!

An excellent experience in every way from start to finish. This place is always a favourite for any occasion or just because, because it's always so good in every way. Today, again, was 110% up to scratch. We can't wait to go back!

Really nice experience for Christmas brunch, good food, friendly staff.
