Delaware has few Italian restaurants that I would define as being outstanding. Recently, on Kirkwood Highway, not far from University of Delaware Campus, a new Italian restaurant called Soffritto opened, and it is by far the best Italian food I have had in this area. The atmosphere includes dim lighting, private booths, a fireplace in the wall, and a small bar area. Their appetizers are out of this world - especially their broccoli rabe dish, and their spinach and artichoke appetizer. They utilize only the finest cooking ingredients and the food is beautifully presented. They are always more than accommodating if you want specialty salads ordered, or have special requests, and my husband and I are just thoroughly impressed with the food, the portions, the presentations, the service, and the atmosphere. It is an environment that is both couple and family-friendly, and the prices are slightly higher, but the food quality is also far superior! cjaneb877

Last evening , my husband and I enjoyed a wonderful meal at your restaurant. My husband had the veal special and he said it was out of this world. I decided to go with my favorite Linguine with a white clam sauce. I asked our server, Laura, if she could ask the chef to make mine spicy with some extra garlic or red pepper. I forgot to tell her red pepper flakes and not red pepper strips of the vegetable, but she must have understood me. My dish arrived just the way I wanted. The chef did a great job. He or she made this dish sparkle. It made my tongue tingle and I ate every bit and even used some bread to sop up the last of the juice. Usually when I eat out I eat half of my food and bring the rest home but last night I ate the whole thing. It was that good. You have a wonderful wait staff and a fantastic chef.

Genuine Italian food and an overall great dining experience! Creative menu with not only Italian favorites but unique dishes as well. Everything comes to order and waitstaff is happy to help you with alterations. Couldn't ask for more! Make sure to use the call ahead seating system they have however; the wait was almost an hour for walk-ins.
PROS: Food, service, atmosphere
CONS: Long wait unless you call ahead.
