    Our food and service were exemplary. It was a very busy night with a couple of parties so it was far noisier than usual, but despite that it was a lovely evening.

    Extremely disappointed. Paid my bill, and unfortunately I left my wallet at the table I was sitting at. As soon as I realized called and asked if anyone had turned it in. The answer would be no.

    Amazing experience!! The food was not only delicious, our server Sofia was top notch. She gave great suggestions not just pointing out the most expensive items on the menu. I had the lobster special and my wife had the braised short ribs. The pasta was so fresh and the lobster was not only abundant in the dish but was cooked perfectly and the flavor was probably one of the best I ever had. I will definitely be using Sofia’s restaurant as one of our go to restaurants.

    A bit loud, difficult to hear conversation with partner. Steak was warm not hot & served with rock hard butter--should have been soft or melting. Garlickly spinach was watery.

    I have been coming to Sophia since it opened. I am a fan and a regular. I had my 60th birthday party there (11 years ago) in the back room with 25 people. It is the best calamari I have ever had. I have turned many, many people to Sophia. The total experience is exceptional.

Thanks again Gabe for a great experience. Oh, the food was wonderful. I ordered the chicken parmigiana which was great. ‘I’ll be back.’

    Usually Sophia gets five stars all around, but last night was a little bit of an exception…. Our food took over an hour to come out from the kitchen, and the restaurant was a relatively dead last night. This has never happened before so it was a tad frustrating.

    Ordered the delmonico medium well, it came back very rare. Ate some any way, did not send back because never had a good experience sending food back. Brussels sprouts with bacon side very under cooked. Red bliss potatoes average at best, corn risotto was excellent. My server Amy was excellent.

    Pretty bad. Maybe just a bad night. In my opinion, the GM must have been sleeping. Ordered a bottle of white wine. Delivered bottle, no glass. Bottled open, no option to keep cold. Left bottle on table no chiller. Broken Crackers served not bread. Had to ask for bread. Steakhouse, ask for bread? Spider on table. Killed spider on the crackers. Filet medium rare came our well done/charred. Medium steak came out medium rare. Had to ask for refill of waters. Repoured my own wine glass. Given free dessert for bday and steak temperature error but expected more. No bueno.

    Five of us ate at Sofia on Wednesday night and had the most exquisite time. Our experience was only made better by Jackie G who provided top class service. Everything was wonderful, from the martinis made by Fiachra to the warm atmosphere that all of the staff created. We can’t wait to come back and dine again.
