This restaurant had a great vibe on a summer Saturday night. Food was excellent and really quite reasonable. Really liked all of the wine flight options. Servers were always around, being as busy as it was, I was surprised by that. Would definitely go back to again.

Absolutely delicious cauliflower appetizer! Loved it. The indoor and outdoor ambiance was beautiful. Thank you for having vegan options…… my eggplant dinner not only looked beautiful but it was absolutely delicious. Looking forward to visiting again.

This place is absolutely gorgeous inside and outside which makes it perfect for special events and taking pictures. It was very busy but since the restaurant is so large and well staffed they were able to accommodate my party of 2 without a reservation (however, I always recommend making a reservation just in case). I was blown away by the cauliflower appetizer so I had high expectation for the entrees. My table ordered the Salmon and the Lamb chops of which both were very mid, 4/10. Salmon was dry, and the lamb chops were very fatty so I barely got any meat since they only give you 3 lamb chops. I would definitely go back just for the cauliflower. Wine and cocktails (spicy margarita and espresso martini)were decent, not the best I ever had but still very tasty. Anyways, our waiter was very busy but he was very efficient and able to give us great service. The server assistant did a phenomenal job setting up our table for every course and she was extremely attentive so we never felt neglected.

UPDATE: November 2024:
We have been going down the shore on the occasional weekend and our first stop before even going to our apartment is to stop at Sofia’s and sit at the bar for a quick dinner and drinks. We love all the food and they have a great wine menu. Drinks are made well.
My only complaint is that their posted hours aren’t really what they adhere to. We have been at the bar long before closing and tried to order food and the pizza oven was already shut down or “the kitchen staff all left” so we can’t get dessert. And this might be about one hour before posted closing time. I wish they would give you final warning so we could get what we want.

A little late with the review, but we sat at the bar for a quick dinner (reservations were unavailable) and we had an excellent time. The bartender was very attentive. The food was awesome. Can’t wait for summer 2024 to go back. Will probably sit at the bar most times unless we are with more people!

The members of our
spouse grief group have been going to Sofia’s for the past few years as a way to get our members to become comfortable socializing again. Sofia’s is the perfect place offering a beautiful setting, delicious food, and terrific service. I can’t thank the management and staff enough for accommodating our large group of a dozen or so members. This has become a favorite place for our members . Thank you Sofia’s for providing such wonderful times.

Sofia Margate a must go to. Amazing experience from the minute we walked into this aesthetically beautiful restaurant from start to finish. When we walked in Maria M was so welcoming. We felt like we walked into her home. So kind and just made us feel at home. From the fresh oysters to the crab cocktail to the Tzatziki with fresh pita absolutely amazing. Our silverware was changed with each course. The salmon melts in your mouth and the surf and turf prepared to perfection. We have been to many amazing restaurants in our time and never did a server come and remove the lobster tail shell from the plate so quickly. That server is Rena. She was spot on with every move. The desert from baclava to the fig and honey ice cream just divine. The Greek coffee amazing with a nice touch of a dipping pastry. To Marie M, Rena and all the staff just amazing. Let me just say our Mom is 91 and has been to a lifetime of restaurants and she said nothing has compared to Sofia Margate. Honestly she is a tough critic. Don’t pass this gem by. Absolutely amazing.

Sofia’s is very different from the rest! A fantastic mix of authentic Greek and Mediterranean cuisine! Her new spectacular Chef Soto is preparing new items unlike any other restaurant in the down beach and Atlantic City areas ! Wine selection is superb and very moderately priced! All wines are selectively picked to accommodate the new menu as well as the wine enthusiast favorites! You must enjoy the Truffle dusted cauliflower appetizer, the chopped mixed green with basil leaf, sunflower seeds, crumbled blue cheese with diced tomatoes cucumbers and a touch of sweet baby corn ! The short rib is so tender and flavorful! And the desserts! Deconstructed baklava with a pistachio mousse and the raspberry tart!
Excellent ambiance! Perfect for a date night!!! Sofia, Angela, Christina, David, Kelly, Nick, George, and Damon, all phenomenal!! You’re part of the Greek family as soon as you arrive and depart!! Go check out Sofia’s of Margate out!!

Let me start by giving credit where it’s due: the food was pretty good and the restaurant is lovely. But none of that matters because the service was such a disaster that I won’t be back-ever. I run a woman’s social group that goes out weekly and this time five of us decided to try Sofia’s. I did what I always do:told the server ahead of time that we’d be splitting checks. Apparently, that was asking too much, because he immediately refused. When I added that I wanted the appetizers on my own tab, he actually said, “ Why don’t you worry about the food now and worry about money later.” Ah yes, nothing like being scolded for trying to pay at a restaurant. Bold business model. But fine-let that one slide.
The appetizers arrived, and I politely asked the waiter (Kenny) who brought them out to take a quick picture for us. This is not only a shout out for my group but also highlights the restaurant. He hit me with an immediate “no”, dramatically rolled his eyes and then marched over to the bar to complain about us to two other customers.
You could be serving a Michelin level meal (spoiler: you aren’t) and we still would never come back. The service was that spectacularly rude.
I do need to mention the younger, very sweet server (bus boy?) who did take a picture of us. He was all smiles and quite respectful.

✨ Greek island vibes in MARGATE, baby! ✨

From the instant Sofia herself and her fabulous daughter Maria swept us into their world, we felt like long-lost family. Think wrought-iron arches, candlelit corners, and a dining room buzzing with laughter, clinking glasses, and the aroma of garlic-kissed olive oil.

What disappeared from our table (fast!):
Crisp Greek salad drizzled in liquid gold EVOO
Lollipop lamb chops that melt on contact
Whole bronzino—lemon, herbs, perfection
Shrimp souvlaki skewers snapping with citrus
Greek-style meatballs swimming in tangy tomato bliss
And YES—we had the legendary flaming saganaki, lit tableside and devoured within minutes!
The Greek wines they presented to us come from the land of Alexander the Great and the demigod Hercules—bold, rich, and absolutely divine.

Every bite screamed “Yasou!” and every sip of wine had us planning our next visit before dessert even landed. If you crave home-style Greek cuisine served with genuine love, this is your seaside sanctuary.

Sofias, Margate NJ — Pack your appetite, bring your besties, and get ready to feast like a Greek deity.

Tell Maria and Sofia the PhillyFoodFanatic says Opa!!!
