Sofia is always an incredible experience but especially tonight’s! We had 10 people and the waitress was so attentive (I think her name was Rhianon) and fast with our drinks and food as well as being so kind. Thank you so much Sofia for giving us a fantastic night out! 12/18/2024

Overall experience was good. Proteins didn’t come with sides. One short rib 58 bucks sides were limited to 3 underwhelming choices. The dishes were well put together. I think I would have a more positive experience if I would have gotten the pizza. Next time I’ll try the pizza. I don’t really like how the menus is positioned with the pasta and proteins. They are separate from each other almost.
