  • Good for special occasions
From the people that brought you Trattoria Carina, Pub & Kitchen and The Diving Horse comes their newest restaurant, Carina Sorella.

Carina Sorella is a casual neighborhood Italian restaurant with a focus on delicious and approachable food in a bright, vibrant atmosphere. Our menu is built around classic dishes - Spaghetti and Meatballs, Cacio e Pepe, Caesar Salad, Chicken Parmesan - but we surround that core of dishes with seasonal, chef driven specialties.

The Bryn Mawr location will include the addition of a pizza oven and a full bar, building on the smaller footprint of the existing location in Philadelphia, Trattoria Carina.

    Amazing meal! Shared the chopped salad and three of the pastas, all delicious. Love the wine from Tuscany too, and the holiday decor is beautiful.

    Asked to sit far from the bar area, there were many empty tables over there but told we couldn't. When we left an hour later the same tables over there were still empty. Place is just too loud. Service was very good.

    We were here for brunch. Our server was attentive but kitchen was incredibly slow. Restaurant was no where near full but food delivery was awful. Some of us finished our meals before others even got theirs, and the simplest things like bacon and eggs arrived last. Lovely place. Would give it another try but not a iOS first impression

    We ordered the tuna, beet salad, olives, bronzino, and osso bucco. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent.
