    After a recent trip to Italy, we were craving authentic pasta dishes. Trattoria da Sofia did not disappoint! Each of our dishes was delicious. My dish (our table favorite!) was the Pistacciosa. Great wine selections, spritzers and best, simple, authentic tiramisu prepared table side. We’ll be back!

    We had a great meal. Two of us had the salmon and loved it. I had the meat raviolis and they were excellent. The fourth member of our group had the seafood raviolis and said they were great. The service was very good considering the restaurant was getting slammed on a Saturday night. We will definitely go back.

    Sofia is a wonderful neighborhood restaurant with a slightly different menu. For example, their artichoke appetizer is outstanding and not common in other Italian restaurants. My wife and i have eaten here several times and will continue to to return. My last entree, the short rib stuffed ravioli was in a fantastic cream sauce. The cannoli are excellent and the tiramisu is prepared table side, another exceptional service. It is a bit noisy but the overall decor and ambiance is appealing. Sofia is definitely worth a visit.

    The staff are friendly and attentive, the food is of exceptional quality, and the atmosphere is casual and welcoming. Having tried the Ossobuco, Ravioli di Pesce, Pasta Pistacchiosa, and Arancini, I recommend them all.

    The food was not in the great category but very good. Service was fine. The chairs were hard the place was so cold most customers were eating with their coats on and even though I asked for heat it never happened. Not worth a second shot

    Incredible handmade pasta. Sauce was to die for. Service was incredible (shout out Giuseppe). And whoever was rocking their bar put the best twist on an Old Fashioned I’ve had in years. Would go back in a heartbeat.
