Sofia's: Reviews & Ratings
I recently dined at Sofia in Brooklyn, and it was an exceptional experience. The food was nothing short of spectacular. The service was equally impressive. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal.
Went here for dinner after a funeral with friends. At first when we entered, I thought it may be too small as 2 of us utilize motorized chairs. However, as we were escorted further in, there was enough space for us. The atmosphere was nice, kind of romantic and the music was from the 80's which we as 50 yr olds appreciated. We were greeted by Luis who is one of the nicest waiters I have had the pleasure of being served by. He made recommendations and all were good ones. The white wine sangria with watermelon was absolutely delicious. The bread.....YUM! Appetizers were so good, esp. the octopus which was my favorite. We also had mussels but no pic since they were gone before I got a pic. The entrees were a nice size, with fresh pasta and sauce. My chicken parm was so tender as well. I got dessert to go because I was too full to eat more. Hopefully my daughter didn't eat them both so I can take a pic and taste them. Will visit again and ask for Luis.
My group had wonderful dinner. The food was excellent, from appetizers to entrees to dessert and even the drinks. The waiter was very friendly and accommodating. The wait between appetizers and entrees was a little long, but worth the wait. I would definitely go back.
Wonderful service. Delicious food. Our party of 8 shared hot and cold antipasto. Mozzarella en carozza, baked clams, grana padano, sun dried tomatoes, salami and more. Everything was fresh and delicious. As an entree, I ordered squid ink pasta with shrimp, crabmeat and a red sauce. Really tasty, the pasta was perfectly cooked. For dessert we had poached pears. Lovely. Valet parking. A great dinner spot.
Just had a WONDERFUL Christmas eve dinner !! Started out with the stuffed calamari - 3 pieces & the mixed green salad ( for those who like Romaine, arugula & radiccio, with thick Julienne style sliced beets - this salad's for you ) continued with the linguine fruttti di mare - as you can see from the photos- with shrimp clams, scallops & mussels ( on the menu in a red sauce, I requested a white clam sauce - delicious !! ) followed by a single broiled lobster tail - PERFECTLY prepared, with broccoli - also perfect & 2 potato wedges - toasty on the outside & fluffy on the inside. Ended the meal with a cappuccino & Italian cheesecake. Luis - the very accommodating young waiter, couldn't have been nicer ( he helped to make it a lovely evening - I appreciate him, & his father, Sergio working on Christmas eve )
Delicious food, nice service and little bit pricey and need always reservation.
Food was delicious, especially the Caesar's Salad and the Cosmo cocktail was perfectly made.
I am Italian and very picky about Italian food. I love this place. Food is well prepared and care taken for allergies. The staff is friendly and attentive. Been going to for years and will continue to. Highly recommend
