They said no cant do get what you get.. So setteled for what they had to offer flan. Alittle disapointed. Were lookin forward to the hazenut cake.

Good food but not a deal even at rest week 2 glasses of wine half the bill. But good food. Will rate good food but needs sum changes.

Absolutely exceptional food and service! Rack of lamb and Shell Steak was nearly 99% fat free and super juicy! Very nice owner and one of the best waitresses, Kristen! We absolutely will be returning! Tip- try her Amaretto Sour! Superb! FAR better than that “Crew Restaurant “!

We randomly chose this from Google and when we got there the aroma in the parking lot just gorgeous. Upon entering we were greeted by this fresh smell ie no overpowering smell of food everywhere. We were promptly seated and the adventure began. The calamari and the lobster bisque was excellent seasoned just right and they serve a bread that's just heavenly. We had the Crispy Skin Duck and Frutti Di Mare which was excellent. The staff Hernan O was attentive,polite and knowledgeable about the offerings.

Service and food were both incredible. We started with Kristen and Natalie came in mid way, and both were amazing! I always appreciate people taking care of me the way I take care of my customers. Food was top notch from apps to dessert. A definite must stop if you are new in Fishkill!

Drinks were strong and good, I had the octopus over a bed of fresh salad, very good but small but still very good. My wife did not have an appetizer. My wife's entree was stuffed chicken with Parma prosciutto, mozzarella cheese, and as lot of goodies. I had the rare tuna over mashed potatoes, but one thing here that was amazing, the mashed potatoes were green!!! I asked why and the waitress said they put in Wasabi in the mashed potatoes and let me tell you, this was the best mashed potatoes I have ever had, (sorry wifey). And finally you've got to make room for their FLAN. Flawless, fantastic and really creamy. Now a final note, the last review I made for this restaurant my wife and I couldn't see because it's very dark in there as the restaurant is in an old home. They fixed the problem, they came out as it got darker and placed personal lamps on every table with three settings and non of the settings were obtrusive to other patrons as the lamp lit down and was not above chest height. Definitely go and enjoy a nice personable meal. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Sotano came highly recommended by a colleague who frequents the establishment. So we went in with high expectations and they sure did not disappoint. Ambiance, cleanliness, service and food were all top notch. Had the crab and lobster bisque, butternut squash soup, octopus, braised lamb and scallops. Each dish perfectly delicious. A true gem.

This is the first time we visited the place. And boy! It was amazing! The food was great. The atmosphere was even greater. I had the Sotano Burger. The dried aged beef gave that rich flavour. Our friends had the chicken and the mussel. It was good even the water and wine. Inside they have the bar wih the ceiling beam exposed. I find it to be interesting design. The owner of the restaurant came out to greet us and the waitress was even nicer. I definitely recommend this place and will surely come back again for others on the menu. Excellent experience!
