    We came at 7pm on a Friday (made a reservation) before the place got filled… and by 8pm is was hopping. From the look of it everyone was having a great time. It’s a cozy dark interior made to be more intimate than many brighter spots. Lots of “regulars.” Service was super attentive without being on top of you. Even the “bus boys” were gracious and concerned if you were enjoying everything. The food: Salads and soups were delicious, abundant and nicely presented. Bronzino and pasta were delicious (although the ravioli could have been warmer). All delicious. The point being: screw ordering in. Go out. Go to Sojour.

    We love this place. Comfortable and tastefully decorated with a warm welcome and good vibe that endures. Obviously we come for the delicious food and drink, which are always outstanding. Tonight was just as tasty. But the butternut squash soup was beyond- it is sublime! Wow! Thanks for another incredible meal!

    Food was good, but needed more explanation. For example, I ordered calamari for appetizers. No one explained that you get the whole squid. I thought you get regular calamari tentacles. Also, there was a table of four young people beside mine that accounted for the noise in the entire restaurant. Plus: I was celebrating my birthday and they gave me a free dessert and sang Happy Birthday.
