- RRichardVIPBaltimore / Maryland •32 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOur first time in NOLA and at Sofia. Our server, Cece, was friendly, attentive and very helpful. My wife and I shared insalata mista, polpette, calcio e pepe, and the tagliatelle ragù with duck. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend Sofia.More infoSofia New OrleansPrice: Expensive• Italian• Warehouse District•4.7
- RRobertVIPNew Orleans / Louisiana •79 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWhat a wonderful experience. We shared the Caesar Salad and Chicken Parm. Both were delicious. At least 8 servers engaged us at our table; from the GM to the runner. All were polite and courteous. The portion sizes are enormous; so consider sharing. The cocktail list is creative.More infoSan Lorenzo at Hotel Saint VincentPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary Italian• Garden District•4.7
