Excellent service, food and drinks. I love how different it is from other places and how unique every dish is. Felt a warm welcome at the entrance and at our table, our server was very friendly and she above and beyond.

5 stars! Our food and drinks were absolutely delicious. We had fried calamari, carbonara, and spaghetti with meatball. My drink was the Paloma Di Sofi. Atmosphere was great, service was great, and quality food. Great for a date night!

Free valet parking which was great because there were no street spaces available.
Grace, our waitress, was helpful on the menu, attentive to keeping our drinks filled, and overall provided a great experience.
The owner/head chef greeted us and asked about the meal which is always great.
Food: complimentary bread was great, although we felt the amount of olive oil for two small pieces of break was excessive. For entrees I had the Jambalaya which was good but nothing out of this world. Our other entree was the chicken Parmesan which was the best we’ve ever had in the US or Italy. Chicken perfectly cooked with a flaky but light crust. The truffle fries were the only side we got and although they are good, they would be more appropriately called truffle wedges. I would not have ordered them had I known they were potato wedges. We also had the lemon cake. It had an excellent presentation but flavor/texture wise was nothing outstanding.
Overall a solid experience. We will definitely return and try some different dishes.

We had been looking forward to visiting this restaurant for a long time. The pictures and reviews looked great, and the atmosphere and décor did not disappoint—it was beautiful and welcoming.
Unfortunately, the overall experience was not what we had hoped for. The food itself was just okay. We’ve dined at several places in a similar price range, and in comparison, the dishes here were average at best.
The service was also underwhelming. We waited about 30 minutes for our drinks, which felt too long, even on a busy evening. One of our guests simply asked for lemon with a water, and despite reminding the waitress multiple times, it was forgotten. At some point, we gave up asking. We also needed salt, but couldn’t find our waitress to request it. Surprisingly, it was the chef who noticed us raising a hand and came over to bring salt himself.
Overall, while the restaurant has a nice atmosphere and lovely decoration, the food was nothing special and the service left us disappointed. The long waits and forgotten requests put a damper on the night. Sadly, we would not return for another evening out.

Saw this place recommended on the scoop for Jacksonville. It was absolutely perfect.
The calamari was spectacular. The Mrs had fruiti de mari and she was beyond happy with her dish. I had the spicy arabatta pasta and it was perfection.
Drink was a bit overpriced and underserved but was delicious as well.
Service was great. Would absolutely recommend.

This new, locally owned restaurant is perfect for gatherings of friends and family. Mike has also taken several groups of customers recently, and the food and service have always been on point. Fair warning: portions are generous, so plan on to-go boxes.
All in all, a great addition to the San Marco foodie scene!

I had such a great experience here! The Sofi’s Chicken was hands down the best part of my meal, so tender, full of flavor, and honestly one of the best chicken dishes I’ve ever had. What really made the visit even better was the service. Juliana was my server and she was amazing—so friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. She really went above and beyond and made the whole experience special. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone. If you go, you have to try the Sofi’s Chicken—and make sure you ask for Juliana!

This past Sunday, my new husband and I had a small, intimate micro-wedding. After our marriage license was notarized, we headed to Sofi’s Mediterranean Restaurant in San Marco to celebrate our special occasion. The restaurant was beautifully decorated and exuded a stylish vibe. We were promptly seated, and our server, Jen, greeted us warmly and efficiently took our drink orders. The bar looked chic, and it was entertaining to watch the bartender expertly mix and create our drinks. I opted for the limoncello margarita with a rim of Tajín, which was absolutely delicious. The entire staff was incredibly kind and went above and beyond to ensure our party of 11 had a wonderful time. The bar and restaurant were spotless, the service was quick, and the servers were attentive and accommodating. We all left feeling happy and satisfied, with our hearts full of love and our bellies full of delicious food. Thank you so much for making this a beautiful and memorable dinner to celebrate this significant milestone in our lives.

The Sofia’s atmosphere, staff and food was great! It was a date night for my hubby and I. I walked in to be immediately greeted by the front hostess. Our waitress was so sweet, wish I can remember her name:( but the food was so good and full of flavor. I will definitely keep coming back! I had the Sofia’s dish and my husband had their classic spaghetti + meatballs
