    Super sophisticated atmosphere. Good vibes with wonderful upbeat tunes, delicious bites, and amazing "out-of-the-box" cocktails. Staff is genuine and not snobby, but yet first class. They are very attentive but not stuffy. Furniture and antiques are perfect for the ambiance. I go here a lot and will be back soon. Love me some Sophia's Lounge. I recommend the lamb meatballs, wagyu sliders, truffle fries, crab cakes, and my favorite: the charcuterie & cheese board. Great job y'all!

    The intent was good as the server started off with great energy. Music/playlist had nice tempo and balance. They were understaffed and we had wait times if 10-15 minutes just for a checkin. An addition bartender (they only had one) and 2-3 more servers would assist. It was a Thursday night between 7:30p and 9:00pm.

    Sophia's Lounge is one of our favorites, love the ambiance. This visit was pre-theatre wine and charcuterie board. Not really a valid test of their true capabilities. The Lounge was busy, a lot of hotel activity so service was a bit slow and not overly attentive. Food and wine were good, as always.

    This place is super chill, and the food is good as well as the service… The only issue we had is that my boyfriend‘s old-fashioned glass had a chip on it in it cut his lip… All they did was comp the drink… I think that potentially could’ve been a bigger issue…

    LOOOONGEST wait for service with only 4 or 5 viable tables. Ashely was kind however, we waited far too long to receive beverages and ultimately order food.
