"This is another restaurant we hadn't been to in a couple of years, so it was about time we visited again. We booked a table and requested a booth. Upon arrival we were greeted by a very friendly member of staff who seated us down at a booth. Great start. The menu has a really nice selection of all courses and drinks. We ordered a couple of wines whilst perusing the menu and were giving free bread dips whilst we did so, which was a nice touch. We ordered a garlic bread to share as a starter and were going to order a couple of pastas for mains, but we noticed chicken a la creme, which is a favourite we rarely have in the UK. We couldn't resist. The food was fresh, hot, really tasty and generous in portion size. Lovely. We ordered the cheese board for dessert and again a nice size as a lot of restaurants have really reduced this dish in size, if you can actually order it at all. Overall we were really impressed and will be going back. Well done Sophia's."
