We come in to your restaurant at least twice a month. It is odd to me as a steak house, that with blue cheese being in the kitchen, that asking for blue cheese stuffed olives for a dirty martini is such a huge deal. Tonight was the first night we sat at a table, (we usually do bar dining) because our aunt and uncle took us out for our birthday dinner. Of all the restaurants, we picked this one, and the waitress (Paula, by the way made it so great) came back with my martini without the blue cheese. She said the bartender woud not make it that way, but that she would. Our waitress did that for us. Are you guys kidding? Thousands of restaurants that you are competing with, extremely slow, and you cant stuff olives? Get in a different mind set, because trust me, we go to all places in the South End, Boston, etc...and you are pretty much the only establishment that wont do this. And by the way we spend much money here, and we tip really well......Again, thank you Paula for such great service!

The food was excellent, the ambiance was casual and intimate, the food was tasty, and the service was better than all the former combined. The wine is a tad over priced, and the steak while cooked to perfection, lacked that wow factor. All of the pasta dishes were seasoned and cooked with care and precision, and provided the highlights of the meal. The antipasto was sufficient, but I say you start with the baked blue point oysters, original and creatively seasoned. We were there for a birthday, and the restaurant provided a 10" cake with some candles for a nominal charge. The cake was unexpectedly light, sweet, and delicious, but we didnt try any of the menu desserts. I cant compliment the service enough. It is always refreshing (and rare) to be served by true professionals. I would definitely recommend.

For our 21st wedding anniversary, my husband and I wanted to dine at a place that we have never been to before. From the time the hostess sat us down until the time we left, we enjoyed ourselves. Our waitress Cara made our dining experience there wonderful. She was very attentive, informative and personable which in my book really matters when dining out. We had two appetizers, the shrimp cocktail and the Maryland crab cake which was amazing. There was one hickup when I received my meal. I asked for my steak to be cooked a certain way and it was not. But, it was immediately corrected and I have to say that it was delicious and cooked to perfection. The chef sent his apolagies and offered us a free dessert as well. I would definitly return to this restaurant and recommend it to my friends as well.

Have to say, the food was excellent, the wine was excellent, but a few of the people that went wanted Scotch only to find out that they did not serve it. Have never been in a place that did not serve Scotch. The drinks that were ordered were all wrong and had to be sent back. Glad I had wine. The wait staff is to be complimented especially Rocco our waiter. Kudos to him. The only bad aspect of the place is the noise level. A person has to shout to be heard by the person next to him at the table.

I ate here with my wife last night and for a couple of hours it felt like all our worries melted away. The wine, the veal oscar, the elegant atmosphere, all blended together nicely. Having said that, the $30/person price tag brought me back to reality, hence the 4 stars. Then again, I wouldnt mind elevating my dining experience once in a while and I know that my wife appreciates it.

Amazing food, fantastic service! I believe our waitresss name was Trish, I could be wrong, but she was on point! Cleared the table after bread, and again after apps! Very attentive and super nice! Quick turn around! Wish it was closer to home as we would go there more than we do!

We were glad we made an early reservation - the place was full by 7. I think they have finally found the right menu - pricing - wine list for this very comfortable spot. Food was great - service was great - we will be back. Would like to see more wines in the $20 to $30 range.

My friends and I decided to go somewhere nice and this had a very unique menu for our group (18-24). Prices werent bad at ~50per person and we were completely stuffed. Beef Wellington was amazing, and the cookies with ice cream desert was worth going for alone

Sofias is delicious and always a great place for a special dinner. We had my Grandmothers 90th birthday at Sofias and they gave us a private room with excellent service! The steak, pasta, everything is so delicious and cooked perfectly.

I love Sofia Italian Steakhouse. I cant really say anything bad about it. It has been around since God was a boy and I dont think it has changed one bit. My Husband knows that I love these kinds of places.

Food was delicious and well presented. Fireplace was going in the bar so we sat on comfy leather sofas and had a drink before dinner. Beautiful restaurant. Lots of fun!

This place is a cozy little Italian steakhouse with a homey feel. The staff was very nice. The homemade pasta is delicious and its half price on Mondays.

BEST deal around for a steak house. Quality rivals the best steak houses in the city, while the prices make it easy to come back every week.

Three-course meal is worth it for just a couple bucks more on Monday. Food is delicious and restaurant in general is well-maintained.

Fantastic steak. For cost conscious diners get a salad and add the steak tips ($16), its delicious.

Most dishes were excellent. Oddly, the steak was just average. Great Italian meals, though.
