    Sofia never disappoints. We had a high-top right in the middle of the restaurant, perfect vibe for a small group dinner. Service was excellent. Food was excellent. We can’t wait to go back!

    I usually have a great dinner here. The service seemed a bit rushed. Unfortunately, I had ordered my dessert to-go and it wasn’t placed in the bags and they never called back on rectifying the issue. Pretty sad about coming home and not being able to eat the dessert I paid and tipped on. Oh well.

    Had a fabulous time dining here for dinner. My husband and I are gluten sensitive, they were able to accommodate our restrictions on the pizza, pasta, and appetizers (the whipped ricotta was amazing!) Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to step away from the traditional NOLA dishes.
