If I could sum up my experience at SOPHIA'S in 2 words.. It was delightful and delicious! I would rate it a 5/5.
It was our anniversary and we decided on Sophia's. Fortunately we got the reservation. The staff on phone was polite and booking a table was seamless.
Ambience: The very first thing that caught our eyes was the homeliness and beauty of this place. It is so weird that although it wasn't extravagant, but still the feeling of this place was pure Joy. Just the right amount of lighting. Also, the wax candle placed at each table really lights up the mood. There are hand made murals done on the wall which gives a real Mediterranean feel.
Please keep in mind that If you want a really quiet place, this surely isn't! Since people get really happy and talk their hearts out. So it was definitely not quiet 😂
Food: Food was delicious. I loved the fact that they have kept a small menu but judging by 4 items we had, they pour their hearts out in those. The Garlic Bread was crusty and the melted cheese on the top was delicious. The Arabiata Pasta and Sea bass were cooked to perfection. A must haves for sure!
Service: Although I am not completely sure since I didn't have had the chance to ask, but I am pretty sure that it's family run restaurant. The staff was very attentive and quick when we called or needed something. Food took reasonable time as it would have taken to be cooked freshly. Everyone who was serving was smiling and bursting of joy. It was efficient and with care.
Overall, I would say it was a delightfully memorable evening for us and I would blindly recommend this place for anyone to...
Read moreI was thinking of visiting this place for some time now, and recently we decided to give it a go. First thing we spotted was, place was very busy. The moment we entered, we were not disappointed. Lovely waitress with an honest smile sat us at a perfect table for a dinner for two. Place was nice and warm, despite the weather outside, which was very windy and cold. We ordered a starter, drink, and a main dish. Our drinks was served promptly, followed by complimentary side dish and a starter. As a starter I tried the baked mushrooms in tomato sauce with cheese. I was blown away with the freshness, seasons and general taste of the dish. It was simply amazing. Main was a Parma pizza for me and again it was cooked to perfection with fresh Parma ham and rocket on top. Throughout our stay we have been treated like VIP's by our waitress, even though the restaurant was full to the last table at all times. I understand why people are visiting Sofia's so much.
I can definitely recommend this place if you're looking for an authentic Italian cuisine made to it's best.
Best regards to the amazing chef, doing the hard work in the background. Keep up the good work, and don't give up on quality. Thanks to your taste and pursuit of quality we, customers are coming back.
Also thank you to our lovely waitress Alketa, for making our stay at your restaurant an amazing experience.
We will definitely be coming back shortly to try more of...
Read moreMy husband and I went to Sofia's last night for our wedding anniversary dinner. They had asked on the phone if it was for any type of celebration so on arrival we saw they had decorated our table with little "Congratulations" graffiti, 2 red balloons one heart shaped and red roses in a vase also red petals scattered on the table. It was very sweet of them. The waitress was very friendly and took our drinks order and lit tea lights for us. My hubby had stuffed mushrooms and I had the mini meze which was 3 mini bowls of dips, avocado, humus and beetroot. All really tasty, the beetroot one was amazing, served with flat bread all yummy served on long rectangled plates. We both had the beef fillet with veg and sliced potatos mine was really good but my husband had another one made as it was slightly overcooked for him, he likes his rare. They were very apologetic and took 10% of the food bill for us, (separate drinks bill). We were both happily stuffed and weren't going to have a dessert but they said it was complementry so we shared the cheesecake which was also good. We both only had a glass of two different red wines, both very nice. A lovely little restaurant with a nice relaxing atmosphere and nice background music playing. Others diners seated 2 meters apart so not too close together. A really enjoyable evening and definitely recommended...
