Had a great dinner with friends. Restaurant is super cute. Loved the live plant cuttings throughout in the liquor bottles. Margs were top notch!
Our server Samantha was fantastic. Super friendly and attentive to our needs. Seemed to really enjoy her job!

I went to try a new place. It's very nice, but the food wasn't what I expected. I ordered grilled meat and it was overly seasoned. The taste stayed in my mouth all day. They charge for chips and salsa, and the mojito barely tasted like alcohol. The prices are very high. I won't be back definitely

To start off, we were told there was a 40 minute wait, which to be honest we expected as we have seen the parking lot packed for days. In about 20 minutes a hostess came up to us to seat us early. We were pleasantly surprised as we were there with our infant. Atmosphere is top teir- enjoyed most of the 20 minutes waiting admiring the ambiance. From the hostess to the waiter, to the bussers I can not compliment them enough. Every single staff member around us, was pleasant, professional and efficient. With a new restaurant you expect some “kinks” to be worked out and in only a few weeks, everything was PERFECT. I have to say everything was 5+ stars. The margaritas were fantastic- just enough flavor and just enough kick of tequila. The food was amazing, we ordered a few things to sample and were impressed with all of it. So excited for such a fantastic restaurant in TR!
This place was amazing. Food was 10/10, Atmosphere was 10/10, and our server Joey was amazing as well. We will definitely be coming here again.

This is a nice new spot, we went for lunch and the food was very good. Their highlight for me was the rice believe it or not, so often a place has rice that is just filler but the rice here is excellent. It was especially good in my burrito. They also toast the outside of the burrito so it holds together while you eat it which is a very nice touch. There is apparently a large selection of hot sauce but theres no real way to order them which was sad since I love hot sauce. Also the mole could have been better, I would skip it next time. Otherwise a very good experience and reasonable for lunch with their specials.

Couldn’t wait to try this place since it looks so beautiful from the outside.
The beef was very bland in my chimichanga, not much flavor at all.
Ordered Fajitas. I thought fajitas came on a sizzling plate, but that was not the case, again no flavor. Unfortunately I don’t think we’ll be back.

Great place for sure ! Long wait time during the week but that's because of the quality and quantity of the food. Some of the best guacamole I ever had.

Atmosphere awesome. Service was slow and waitress did the bare minimum. Food preparation was slow. You have to order apps and entrees at same time which we did not know ahead of time. High chairs are old and wooden and should be upgraded immediately; And it took forever for them to bring it to us or our waitress to even come over. Food was mediocre, especially for the price. Cheese fondue is meh, nothing fancy, wings are not good at all which I think is because of the way they are prepared, maybe boiled. I wanted a chimichanga but not with all that cheese on it. I did like the guacamole paste. Margaritas are ok, but mostly they are just sour mix. Very disappointed. And finally, and I could not believe it, the suggested tip on bottom of receipt shows the totals for 20%, 22%, and 25%. How pretentious. Will not be going back. Not worth the hype or money.

Good food, lovely ambiance and original, different flavored margaritas and guacamole. Cannot beat the happy hour 3-6 menu and cocktails. Great friendly service with a beautiful and clean decor. Loved it!

My wife and I decided to try Sofia's last night for the first time.I must say that the food was very good. My wife ordered a strawberry margarita and I a beer, her drink arrived first the server informed me my beer was coming 15 minutes later after asking twice i finally get my beer.I get that they were very busy but that was a little insane. Now we ask for more salsa again a good 10 minutes go by before we got the salsa, again I get that it was very busy and I am not a server but seriously 15 minutes for a beer.

Not impressed. Stopped in at around 5:00, a mistake. Place was jammed with many more waiting for a table. The bar was lit up way too much for any ambience, and service was ok. But the biggest disappointment was the tiny, overly tart Margarita for the happy hour price of $8. Big deal. I never saw them tilt a bottle, which tells me they are premixed. Where have these reviewers been, that everything is so "amazing"? A diner? I think once the novelty dies down, people will continue to go elsewhere.

I've been to the location on Amboy Rd in Staten Island many times so I was very excited for it to open up and I was not disappointed! Delicious guacamole and Bay St corn, amazing mojitos and margaritas, and tasty entrees. Server John was amazing as well. PS, go for your bday they make it so special! Will be back many times
