Sofia

Hello,

When I booked Sofia, I had mentioned in the booking that it was a birthday celebration for my husband. I also mentioned it to the receptionist when I called before the actual date and asked for a candle to be brought with a cake to our table. Previously, every restaurant I’ve been to to celebrate a special occasion or a birthday, they have gone the extra mile with their level of service to bring one of your meals with a candle and bring it to surprise the guest, without me asking. But I was disappointed to see they did nothing to delight their guests. Ambiance and food were both great but overall, I wasn’t completely satisfied and felt the birthday celebration was incomplete.

This place has such a great mix of people. The ambience is classy, the food is great, service is friendly and knowledgeable about the food without being stuck up. Beautiful decor, clean bathrooms.

Great food and service, reasonably priced would definitely come back!

Everything was perfect. Just waited 1 hour for service.

Going to Sophia’s on a Thursday night when there is live music is a bonus. Go for drinks and music! As for food the food isn’t the best Italian We have had in the city but that being said it isn’t terrible. It is quite pricey but totally worth your time for ambience service and cocktails.

We sat in the bar and had the best time even though it was quiet. Kirk was great. Perfect balance of personality and professionalism. I’m in the service industry and he was one of my best recent servers. Thanks again.

We wére 7 people and service was a bit slower than expected . Otherwise a good experience. Likely better for smaller groups and romantic atmosphere. Hollywood chic vibe.

3 of the 4 diners in my party got violently ill after eating at Sofia. Coincidentally they all had the same meal. At $45 for a plate of pasta only to get home and be sick, does not leave a great lasting impression. As an observation, the menus were beaten and in poor condition which doesn't represent the quality that the restaurant is trying to exude. I will say the service is good though. The wait staff is very attentive and professional.

Our Anniversary dinner for my wife and self, number 35, the service, food and staff were excellent and would recommend this restaurant with enthusiasm.

Sofia is the perfect location for a special occasion, the food, ambiance, and service was above and beyond. An unparalleled experience.

Great place,we will definitely be back! The food was as fantastic as the service and it was a very nice atmosphere that's transfers nicely from restaurant to bar.

Food and service absolutely amazing. Ambiance was great as well

Over priced. The hosts seem snooty. Very friendly waiters.

Amazing and beautiful restaurant. I loved it. Definitely go back

Beautiful space, and a having live music was a nice touch. Our server was outstanding, very attentive and did the best he could considering how busy the restaurant was. We saw the tail end of the dinner service and our server was still very energetic and fresh and did a very very good job. The hostesses were courteous, although weird to see one them walking around with her shoes half off in a venue like that. I expected a higher end vibe which was achieved through the uniforms and the building and amenities, but was lessened due to the loud and crude table next to us, not classy in any way.

Sofia is getting better every time we dine there.
Food and service are impeccable!

Absolutely a beautiful restaurant, with great atmosphere and attentive service.
Unfortunately food was underwhelming. BUT, the great fun atmosphere more then made up for the lack luster food!

Food was good. Ambiance was okay. Not much to speak of as we got there early. Didn't appreciate the waitress padding the bill with bottles of water and cracking them open without asking us first.

It was a great experience with amazing service and delicious Italian food! Such a great atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Great atmosphere but way toooo loud on Saturday night could not even hear myself think and felt like I was yelling the whole night

Great food, nice place, staff helpful. But noise level was crazy. Unable to hold a regular conversation. And to put a table of 35 at a birthday party near all the other dinner guests is crazy. No way to chat with so many folks making so much noise. Create a private space or a party room so the other people eating can enjoy their dinner.

Lovely dining experience and service. Beautiful restaurant!

Very pretty restaurant. Food was good but not the caliber that I expected

They food was delicious and the decor was beautiful

Fun live music dance and carpaccio. Best patio

Thursday’s are live music nights and bring a fun, big city vibe Toronto. Finally!

Staff super on point. Professional. Helpful. They work like a team.

Good is great.
Cocktail glassware is classy and also elevates the experience.

Our server Matthew was outstanding, so nice with a great sense of humour. He was attentive without being overbearing, just the right amount of attention. We were really impressed! The food was fabulous, super delicious and wonderful flavour, especially the agnolotti and wild boar ragu. The sommelier was super helpful as well. Super fun girls night out!!! Thank you!

I have been to Sofia a number of times and the service and food are top notch. Consistent. High quality. Beautiful presentation.... and a great wine list. 10/10

We had a nice evening with good food and drinks.

Love the atmosphere of this downtown restaurant. The wait staff and decor set the tone for a great dining experience. Loved my last two dining experiences- Uche

Excellent waiter. Made it special.

Date night dinner was amazing thanks to the Sophia staff excellent service .
The apps beef carpaccio and buratta cheese were fantastic , the salads crisp with the right amount of dressing .
Main course was steak cook exactly to order and tortellini were excellent too .
Dessert cake with pistacchio ice cream is winner too .
Server name was Kirk and kept everything moving along nicely

I celebrated my 25th birthday at Sofia’s and it was perfect♥️.
Third time dining here and I’ve never left disappointed! Thank you for the best evening

not up to par with other restaurants in the area. food just average with higher than normal pricing. mark ups on wine is exhorbitant

This is a large restaurant on Yorkville beautifully decorated with amazing looking staff and friendly. Menu was surprisingly standard so bit unexciting but food came well cooked and presented. It's definitely a place for that special meal. Pricey but wonderful atmosphere.

In was truly disappointed in the quality of the meal served. The oyster had sand in them, they forgot our second course and the main was just ok. Not sure I’d do this again!

Anniversary

Service and food were great!

A wonderful night. The restaurant is beautiful, the food is amazing, the atmosphere is fun! We had a great time. Looking forward to our next experience!

Amazing place, would go again. Gorgeous restaurant
