We want Sophie's to be a place where one could have a good, hearty meal (comfort food), simple and unpretentious, at a fair price. Our goal is to produce an atmosphere where people can come for lunch, a full dinner, a late snack, a glass of wine or a big cup of coffee and feel comfortable and at home. Our menu is diverse enough for everyone, yet simple enough so the average person will not get overwhelmed with numerous menu choices and complications. Our basic premise is to provide quality food and good service at a fair price in an unpretentious atmosphere. The décor is modeled after classic French Bistros. French country antiques, large open shuttered windows, dark woods, soft pastel colors and walls covered with family pictures make Sophie's an intimate cozy environment

    The specials were delicious (lobster bisque and scallops), but the guacamole and chips were a little boring and I prefer crispy brussel sprouts. It's a little too crowded in the dining room. My two-top was just too close to the other tables, so much so that I couldn't even take off/put on my jacket without hitting someone. The service was great, but it was hard for them to access our table.

    We've dined at Sophie's Bistro for many years, and it's a hidden treasure that everyone should discover and enjoy. Matt can't make a bad cocktail even if he tried. His skills are unmatched! The staff is amazing, and the owner, Peter, treated my hubby and me with two sweet shots that went down really smooth! Our Valentine’s Day dinner at Sophie's will be a memorable one. Thank you!

    Great service on Valentine’s Day. We were not rushed at all, they gave complimentary roses to the ladies, and we were also given two complimentary shots when the main courses were delayed a short time. For such a busy night, they handled it like any other night. Definitely recommend for any special occasion because they are in their toes all the time.
