Sotto Sopra 405 N. Charles Street 410.625.0543 Sotto Sopra is a Contemporary Italian restaurant set in the famous Charles Street corridor, and next to the Basilica, the first Catholic Cathedral in the United States.  Sotta Sopra bursts a casual, yet aristocratic atmosphere.  Within its walls the harmonious feast of shiny mirrors and fancy murals is orchestrated to provide a sense of liberalism and romantic freedom without diminishing the casual dining experience. Our menu is authored by a group of young Italian chefs, whom interchange with other chefs every eighteen months.  This switch co-designed by owner Riccardo Bosio helps the flow of new and more inventive dishes which make Sotto Sopra one of the top 10 dining establishments in the Baltimore area year after year.  Nonetheless some traditional dishes such as Ossobuco, Carpaccio di manzo, Vitello Tennato, Costata di vitello are always visible in the menu to preserve that touch of ethnicity that is at the footing of our menu. Sotto Sopra offers a well thought wine list of over 100 wines from every Italian region and around the world with a strong Italian influence.  Danilo Bosio, our experienced wine director, captures the essence of each wine, carefully describing every bottle and the eccentricities that make them unique to their region.
