"Sorellina is a polished Back Bay dining room with a more formal, intimate feel - dim lighting, a quieter atmosphere, and a layout geared toward smaller tables and lingering meals. The menu leans Italian-Mediterranean, with an emphasis on seafood and pastas. Current offerings include broiled branzino with romanesco, green olives, and fennel pollen, as well as with scallops with sweet potato, bacon, maitake mushroom, and marsala."
"Pellana is a traditional steakhouse on the North Shore, with low lighting, dark interiors, and a dining room built design for leisurely, sit-down dinners. The menu centers on prime cuts of beef, classic steakhouse sides, and seafood dishes prepared in a similarly rich style. OpenTable notes diner favorites like filet mignon, prime New York sirloin, and seared scallops with lobster-corn and scallion risotto."
