• French • New Brunswick
Booked 6 times today
We want Sophie's to be a place where one could have a good, hearty meal (comfort food), simple and unpretentious, at a fair price. Our goal is to produce an atmosphere where people can come for lunch, a full dinner, a late snack, a glass of wine or a big cup of coffee and feel comfortable and at home. Our menu is diverse enough for everyone, yet simple enough so the average person will not get overwhelmed with numerous menu choices and complications. Our basic premise is to provide quality food and good service at a fair price in an unpretentious atmosphere. The décor is modeled after classic French Bistros. French country antiques, large open shuttered windows, dark woods, soft pastel colors and walls covered with family pictures make Sophie's an intimate cozy environment

    Food was very tasty. Value is pretty good, still a good # of plates under $20. It was a Saturday night so quite loud. Staff was all courteous but they were really running to keep up with demand. Reservations a must on the weekends.

    We have been going to Sophie's Bistro in Somerset, NJ since 2002 when it opened. In all that time, the superb quality of the food has been totally consistent, a remarkable achievement. The menu offers a rich assortment of traditional French dishes, each one truly excellent. The setting inside is lovely, too, and the service and staff could not be better.

    We were four at 5pm for a pre-show dinner. We started at the bar for a pre-dinner cocktails that were delicious and a very generous pour! The appetizers and mains were really good, and the service was fantastic! This was our first visit to Victoria's Tratta Italiano, but it will not be our last.
