Anchorage, Alaska · Since 1978
Fresh ingredients. Timeless recipes.
A Greek family's Italian kitchen in the heart of Alaska — house-made pasta, pinsa pizza and fresh seafood, served the same way for over four decades.
Tradition you can taste
It may be a Greek family running an Italian restaurant — but what defines us is famiglia, tradizione, comunità.
What started as a small dream — a pizza oven driven up the Alcan Highway — grew into an Anchorage favorite, built on authentic recipes and warm hospitality. Many of our staff have been part of the family for 20 to 30 years.

Love Sorrento's — we've been going for many years. It's one of the best in town; the top one, I'd say, for Italian food.
