Soprano Italian Restaurant has been serving premium authentic Italian cuisine on Warwick Boulevard since its founding — one great dish at a time. Founder Essam Mahmoud built this place on a simple promise: food so good, you'll be singing after every bite.

Nestled near Fort Eustis, Soprano's quickly became the neighborhood's go-to Italian spot — a place where regulars are greeted by name and every order is made with care.

From chicken parmigiana and lasagna to strombolis, calzones, and what regulars call the best pizza in town — plus daily specials Monday through Sunday.

The flavors got too good to keep inside the restaurant — so Soprano's Marinara Sauce, BBQ Sauce, and House Dressing are now on shelves at Food Lion stores across Hampton Roads, Farm Fresh, and Anand Bazaar. You can order them online too.

Soprano's earned the President's Bronze Award in 2003 — and again in 2024 — a testament to two decades of consistent quality and community trust. The recognition feels good, but the full dining rooms feel better.
