Another fabulous dinner at Sofia! This was our 4th special evening to celebrate one of our birthdays and Sofia did not disappoint. Always superb service and delicious food. Monica was our server and she was outstanding in every way. She took wonderful care of us from the beginning to the end of dinner. Helpful, attentive, and incredibly nice. When the lamb chops that we requested to be underdone arrived overcooked, she didn't hesitate a second and immediately took them back and had the order redone. That was the only slip-up in an otherwise delicious, meal.

Enjoyed restaurant week at Sophia’s. Great way to check out their menu. We got the two glasses of Riesling and Malbec each beet salad, calamari, four huge scallops, fillet, mignon, cheesecake, and tiramisu. The only disappointment was the fillet mignon, delicious, but small and $14 more. It was listed as 8 ounces on the menu, but it just didn’t warrant that kind of additional cost in comparison to the 4 big scallops. Nonetheless, it won’t keep us away from going back.

The restaurant was very nice and had a great ambiance, but the food was so-so. For apps we had the baby arugula salad which was sooo good — could eat it all day. The calamari was tasty flavor wise but could have been crispier. For entrees we had the seared scallops with sweet corn risotto — the scallops could have had more color and seasoning and the risotto was a bit thick not quite as creamy as I would have liked. We also had the lollipop lamb chops which had great flavor and a nice crust on them but we asked for medium well and they were cooked practically well done. We added the Brussel sprouts with apples and bacon on the side which was pretty good. For dessert, we ordered chocolate chip cookies and the cheesecake — both were underwhelming. The service was great and our server was awesome just wish the food delivered a bit more. I could consider going back again and hopefully it will be more satisfying overall.

Reconnecting with family. My first time sitting upstairs. The food and drinks were amazing. Staff is always friend and great at attending to customers. Was here last week and previous server recognized me and gave a wonderful greeting. This was my third visit and each time has been wonderful. I will always recommend dining at Sofias.

Friends came in from out of town, who are vegans (but eat fish). The menu provided a few good options. We didn’t not have to wait for a table. Wasn’t over crowded. Food and beverages were excellent. Our server was wonderful. The place was beautiful. Our out of town guests loved the ambiance so much they too many picture in the restaurant. Thank you for a great dining experience.

The meals were delicious and the staff was fantastic! They were very attentive and accommodating. They brought a dessert to the table for our daughters’ birthday! We had a wonderful evening. We had a 6:00 reservation on a Saturday night and the table was ready for us upon arrival. They did not rush us through our meal. We will look forward to going back again! We were very satisfied, first-time customers!

Very good food - had the filet Mignon and cooked perfectly. Wine was good and relatively well priced Waitress was very good - engaging and attentive not overbearing Noise level is high and having quiet conversation is not an option Was there 11 years ago and had same experience. Very good food and service but noise level a mood killer. Not the place for a romantic dinner but good for a friendship crowd.

The meal I ordered was not tasty, so I didn't like it. My friend mentioned it to the waitress who asked if I wanted some condiments, and I actually preferred not to eat it, but I accepted the salt and pepper. When she came back, I mentioned that I wasn't interested in the meal, and she asked if she could offer me a different meal. I told her what I wanted, she brought it out, and it was amazing. I'm so glad she took the time to make things right. The food is a little pricey, so bringing home leftovers of something I didn't like wasn't appealing.

Food was okay. Service was eh - we had a 7:30 reservation and were not seated until 8:00p yet told it would only be a 10 minute wait. Wait staff was not the most hospitable. Going on a weekend prepare to have a tough time finding parking in the main lot as well as the overflow lot in the back.

Booked here for my anniversary dinner because they advertise as a classy restaurant with a dress code and even said you couldn’t reak of smoke yet when I got there I was sat next to a table with 2 kids running around screaming with iPads on full volume playing cartoon while the parents got wasted and let them. Normally I don’t give a crap I’m a parent I get it but it was my anniversary and if this was more of a family restaurant it should be advertised as one. We were also sat and then moved to a much worse table 30 mins later?
