I recently visited the Sofia Wine Bar, and it was an absolute delight! The atmosphere was enchanting, beautifully decorated for Christmas, creating a warm and festive vibe that made the experience even more special.

We kicked off our meal with the stuffed mushrooms and meatballs as appetizers. Both were bursting with flavor and set the perfect tone for the evening.

For the main course, I enjoyed the La Nonna Pan Pizza and the Paccheri Lisci Bolognese. The pizza was perfectly cooked, with a crispy crust and delicious toppings, while the Bolognese sauce in the paccheri was rich and satisfying—definitely a highlight!

I couldn't resist trying the Bianca pizza, which was a lovely nod to my name. It was as delightful as it sounds, with a perfect blend of flavors that left me wanting more.

To finish off the meal, we indulged in the homemade tiramisu for dessert. It was heavenly—light, creamy, and the perfect sweet ending to our feast!

Tommy, the owner, was incredibly nice and professional, guiding us through the menu with great recommendations. His passion for the food and atmosphere really shone through.

Overall, I highly recommend the Sofia Wine Bar for anyone looking for a cozy spot with fantastic food and a welcoming atmosphere. It was a truly lovely experience!

I had been a fan of Sofia’s Wine Bar until last night. The food was average. Pizza used to be delicious and salads as well. I ordered the Sofia salad and the Pizza Crudo. The salad was smaller than usual and had too much dressing. I remember it being more fresh and a lot more arugula. And the pizza was quite a disappointment, it wasn’t bad but it was an average pizza. Desert was good. Wine was good as well. Nice selection of wines always. Probably they changed chefs. So sad it won’t be part of my go to’s anymore. Such a great cozy place.

The food and service are incredible. Eva and Armando take care of us, our baby, and our dog and it's basically our second home at this point. Cannot recommend enough.

A fun place to get your favorite glass of wine or try something new. The servers are very knowledgeable about the wines they serve, and offer tastings before deciding on a wine to have. In addition, we tried the caprese bruschetta, which was just ok but took a long time to be served. Overall very quaint and I would come back for drinks if I'm in the area again.
