    On the outside Sofia looks like it’s just a room above a pub, that is until you step up into the restaurant and then it’s wow. Great service, wonderful food all you need to bring is the excellent company which we did. The lam ribs are always a go to. Great place and way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

    What a lovely restaurant with the loveliest staff. The food was amazing - especially the tuna carpaccio with Granny Smith apple. And a great wine list. The decor was lovely too. Was a bit quiet for a Friday night so more people should go - it’s a new Surry hills gem.
