Enjoyed dinner at Sociale with friends from out of town. Food was excellent, though the portions were small. The restaurant was busy with a limited number of wait staff so service was a bit slower than usual.

Delicious food and attentive service, the handmade pastas are spot-on! Had the Carbonara and Verdure, both had very layered flavors, full of umami, almost addictive. Tuna app fresh and filling. Was there a bread charge? If so, not great for the minuscule super-mini buns (1” in diameter). Bread is not necessary, but if you are going to serve it, it should be more substantial, especially if there is a charge. Desserts looked lovely but stuffed so did not order. Overall, a great dining experience, but slightly pricey for regular casual dining.

Went here for lunch on a blind date and the atmosphere was low-key and professional, which was perfect. The food was quite good (and way better than average for Brooklyn Heights, which has a dearth of decent sit-down lunch places). I had the Pollo Caprese sandwich and my date had the Tuna Salad. My sandwich was fresh and very tasty, and my friend said that her salad was particularly good. I will be back.

Just celebrated my birthday as Sociale with 8 friends. The staff was delightful and so so kind. They kept the wine coming, made excellent suggestions and stayed on the ball with out table of nine without missing a beat. The ambiance was great for our big group and the food was delicious (I had the spaghetti bolognese and crispy green beans, but the scallops were delicious, as was the burrata and asparagus)! I'd never been here, but walked by it a million times. Next time you are walking by, don't. Go inside and treat yourself!!

The owner/manager is passionate in every aspect to make your dining experience very special from the time your seated until you leave. The food is fresh, delicious & very simple yet creative. The ambiance is perfect. I had a desert that included lemon, angel food cake & almonds that was the lightest most decadent desert I had ever had anywhere! A gem that can’t be missed in a beautiful neighborhood in Brooklyn Heights in the shadows of the Brooklyn Bridge.
