Atmosphere is great - like the layout and the fact the bar and noise of the bar doesn't interfere with the music in the other room. The music was fantastic (Heidi Martin), and the sound was really good! We only had drinks - wine and a mixed drinks - the mixed drink was really good (I see You).
Sotto is truly a jewel in DC. Fantastic food, drinks, service and music. The stage in the back is beautiful and is now one of the best venues in the city by a long shot! Keep it up, Sotto!
Super hip, sophisticated spot on 14th. Live music, great food, no cover? Amazing find.
Swank cavernous spot. Enjoyed bringing the fam to feast our eyes and ears on the delicious new menu and enjoy the funky, bluesy, ambient sounds of John Lee, Charles O. and Mark Blackwood.
Great place for live music and food. Will definitely visit again.
Truly had a great evening of great food and music. I agree that the bar in the back and dinner closer to stage is a nice touch. Food was amazing also.
It's a Great place to eat,drink, enjoy your friends and be wowed by the live music
The best cocktails united with the greatest music genres
This place is really nice. You will love the atmosphere!
Chelsea is a kick ass bartender and we were glad to spend my girlfriends birthday there for a drink.
Very nice restaurant, my coworkers and myself had a great thanksgiving me for happy hour
Everything was wonderful... Great food and cocktails, and wonderful service. Top that off with live music, what more could you want for an evening out with friends. Thank you for a lovely evening Sotto!

Tasty cocktails, excellent wines, and a mouthwatering menu. The staff is fun and professional. Justin kills it behind the bar. Great service!
In Washington for the weekend. Decided to pop by Sotto because of all the good cocktail reviews and I'm glad I did. Very chill atmosphere, with live jazz bands and unique cocktails. The bartender Rodrigo was very friendly and his cocktail making skills are on point. We sampled everything from the original fire, trouble no more, supernaut and new divide (which was my favourite). All the cocktails are very unique in taste and garnished to perfection. I also tried their mustard glazed cauliflower which was delicious and I highly recommend!! Would definitely visit again and I recommend checking out this spot if you haven't!
Great atmosphere with fun cocktails! We came for happy hour and they had a pretty good selection of cocktails and food to chose from. The speakeasy vibe was awesome and they had great music playing while we were there.
Great place! The live jazz band and the whole atmosphere were just amazing.
The food is also really good, and they have a good selection of drinks.
Highly recommended.
We wanted to get dinner and hear live music, and Sotto delivered. The food, music, and service were all excellent. Friend Zone is a well-balanced and interesting bourbon-based cocktail. The molasses bitters give it a really nice long finish. The charcuterie plate was also fantastic, and is easily customized with the server giving us tips on which items were his favorites. We both ordered ragu-- him beef and me lamb. Both were rich and delicious, with the pasta cooked Al dente. We ordered the hefeweizen as our second drink--also an excellent choice. For dessert we had the Nutella cheesecake, which was rich and dense but not too sweet. We enjoyed both of Dante Pope's sets as well. He's a must see if you enjoy live jazz. His voice is just gorgeous. We'll be back!
Don't go there for dinners when you haven't eaten all day, the plate sizes (when we've been there) are all sharable and not big. But cocktails and wine are not bad and music is very good. Especially jazz.
Really killer atmosphere, the lounge is awesome and the drinks are great. Makes for a great end to a date night
It was relaxing and moving listening to Christos DC. His music speaks to the Heart and Soul. He can make you feel like you are time traveling to another place with his Reggae Roots Music!
Amazing atmosphere and vibe. I've been here a few times for the live music on Friday evenings. The drinks are great and bartenders are very experienced. I always see the manager out and about taking an active role in what is going on. I haven't eaten here because honestly the food is too prissy for me, but I love the scene. This would be a great place to have an engagement party or rehearsal dinner for a small-medium wedding. Overall cool place to come to for cocktails.
Great spot to eat and listen to live music. I highly recommend the porcini-rubbed ribeye & the 4 cheese pizza!
The music is awesome. The food is just as great. Definitely a date night place
