   Initial service was slow. Then food came a bit fast. No pace between courses. Lamb chop were small and very fatty. Should not have been offered in such a poor state. Wine by the glass was marginal in taste. Server when approaching table Was a bit rude interrupting table conversation by talking over us Without a simple “excuse me”.

   Quaint little place smack dab in the heart of downtown Lake Geneva.

   It’s been a bit since we’ve dined here and, yet again, are not disappointed. Sopra stands out as one of the top restaurants in the Lake Geneva area. Consistent top end service, hand crafted cocktails, and a solid food menu. The summer 2023 menu is amazing. And don’t forget having dessert.

   New menu looked good. We love the quality and taste of the mussels in the mussels and fries/frites. Quality of Prince Edward Island mussels best you can get. Broth was good, not great. Fries were sub par. Homemade checks box but needs to either be double fried or dropped per order. Fries were flaccid. Potential to be amazing.....needs some tweaking. Baratta was good, Pesto was very good and tomato sauce very good. GOAT Goat pappadidell pasta dish was very good with potential to be great, maybe a little more sauce and meat and a Piece of Goat on bone on top would make dish. Service was very good. Highlight for me was the Southside Old Fashion and the Mussels. Definitely will be back but wish new menu took more risks and really went for it. The items check boxes and overall Very Good,but potentially Great with the right tweaks and take more risks.....don't have to please everyone...but without taking more risks can't be great.

   They were getting ready to change the menu so they were out of many items, food was not as good as previous visits. I will return to give it another go but was slightly disappointed compared with other meals there, prices had also increased but that's was no surprise.

    We had been to Sopra a year or so ago for Restaurant Week. It was high time for a return visit. This was for my wife's birthday. We were seated upstairs. I did not know they had a second level. We started with the octopus which I had heard about. It was delicious. My wife had the duck and I had trout. Both were very good.

    Sopra is the best place to dine in Lake Geneva. Pros: The food is excellent and the decor is trendy but not overdone, giving a warm, inviting feel. We had the goat cheese app, followed with steak for hubby and salmon for me. Everything was dellicious. Cons: The noise level made it difficult to carry on a conversation and our waitress could have been more attentive. But overall best dining experience in this little tourist town. 100% Recommend!

    Had the delicious brussel salad special as an appetizer. Dinner choices were the ragu pasta (lamb) and the arrabiata pasta (seafood) that came out hot and tasty. Ambience was more of a fancy bar vibe with lots of cocktail specials than fine dining, so casual attire is acceptable. Located in the heart of downtown, so you can make an evening out of it.

    The food was excellent. Scallops and tilapia were perfectly cooked. Good beet salad though small. Great carrot soup. But two things stood out. First, the tilapia, an elegant prep, was served with cajun fries. That is more like bar food. And there were about 4 asparagus. Disappointing choice of starch for a $25 dish. When I asked the waitress to substitute another starch, like some other potatoes or rice, she seemed confused. That is what it comes with. Oh. Second, I do think, even given the inflationary conditions we all face, $46 for scallops is pretty steep. We are from Chicago; we can eat more reasonably in several nice restaurants there. Good food will always be expensive. But I do think that this was a bit overpriced.

    The star of this restaurant is the food. The octopus appetizer had a delicious char and bright, acidic salad. The duck was rendered beautifully, crispy and flavorful. The burrata salad had the right idea, but the dressing on the salad overshadowed the other flavors. Enjoyed the caramel Brule and yummy drinks. We were celebrating and had two food allergies and made mention of this in our reservation. However, this was not acknowledged by the server. We made our own adjustments when ordering. The server was distant and not overly friendly. This was a disappointment but not enough to deter us from trying it again.

    We made a reservation for Valentine’s Day but decided to sit at the bar. I started with a deliciously refreshing cocktail called She Fancy. Try the marinated olives. You won’t be disappointed. The bolognese pasta and pork tenderloin were amazing. Our bartender/server provided exceptional service.

    Took my sister here for a special dinner. Michael was our server. Could not have been a more pleasant experience. Everything that we ordered was beyond delicious and well presented. It was hard not to order everything on the menu. Frankly, I wanted to try it all. But Michael was there with us every step of the way and to help guide us in to our final orders. Between the food, atmosphere, and superior service, our expectations were far exceeded. Thank you to Sopra and to Michael! We will be back and we will relay nothing but strong recommendation to anyone who asks….. “where’s a good place to eat in LG?”
