Very romantic wedding anniversary

by cindyslove69

We made plans to visit NYC for our 26th wedding anniversary to attend a Moody Blues concert at Radio City Music Hall. We stayed over night at the Hilton Garden Inn on 48th&8th (highly recommended) so I looked for a place in between the hotel and concert and came across Sosa Borella with good Google reviews. I made reservations for 5PM and wrote to proprietor asking for a quiet table. I got a reply within hours stating that at that time it would be no problem. When we arrived at teh rest. there was a notation about our table and we got a corner table on the 2nd floor - very romantic. The decor is very charming, old floors and nice Argentine wall hangings. Everyone says you go to NYC for a nice dinner and nice show well Sosa Borella did not dissapoint, it is a great dinner spot. The cantaloupe and honeydew cold soup was fabulous for a hot night. My wife had the Spinach Agnolotti with the lamb sauce that she just loved. My strip steak Bife alla Sosa Borella was done to perfection and the chimchurri sauce added interested flavor. The Argentina Pinot wine was excellent. To top it off we shared cheesecake (lite not heavy) with strawberries in raspberry sauce. Our waiter Pedro was very efficient, answered all our questions, and took a great picture that I'm sure we will be looking at in the future remembering our perfect evening at Sosa Borella. We left by 7:00 PM promising to recommend this to our friends.

  • Pros: Romantic, good service, great food
  • Cons: None

magical atmosphere

by ojosazules

Stepping on to the patio on a warm summer night felt like leaving midtown and entering a secret place with good service and great food. We started with a jarra de sangria, it was huge and the best I've ever tasted. We tried the salad special- it was wonderful, with roasted apples and gorgonzola cheese. After that and the empanadas, I could barely eat my entree. The steak and halibut special were cooked to perfection. Our waiter was fabulous; not intrusive but always knew when to check on us. I recommend this place if you're looking to impress your date with a magical evening. It worked for me!

  • Pros: atmosphere, sangria
  • Cons: none

a perfect place for a romantic evening

by mikexcx

We decided to sit in the outdoor patio since it was a warm but nice evening. The ambiance of the place is truly amazing especially the patio which is surrounded b buildings of at least ten stories, so you feel like you are litteraly in the middle of the city. The food was great, we started with am appetizer of empanadas which were justthe right size to keep us wanting more. The steak and fish that we ordered were cooked just right, and the mashed potatoes were defenitly some of the best i have ever eaten. We tried the sangria which was was made with just the right amount of fruit so as to make it sweet but not enough to make you feel as though you were drinking juice. All in all a perfect place for a nice romantic dinner. i would defenitly reccomend it to anyone. My girlfriend and I have officially named it "our" restaurant

  • Pros: Steaks, Snagria, the desserts
  • Cons: none that i saw
