Went there 5 minutes to noon on a Tuesday, thinking that was a good idea... Boy was I wrong. The 4 of us had to wait outside in the cold for 20 minutes. After being seated the very friendly server came over quickly and took our drink orders and shortly thereafter our food orders. I personally got the Steakhouse Burger and was pleasantly surprised that I could get Home fries as the side. The food came out quickly and without hesitation I began to dig in. Starting with a large bite into the scrumptious burger, hot and juicy, exploding with flavor. Out of 10 this thing gets nothing short of a 8.4. Next was home fries, nice and crispy, just the way I like em. Home fries getting a 7.3, I'm not sure if I could have added peppers and onions, but if I would have I think that number would have shot up to a 8.8 out of 10. The pickle was good, fresh and juicy getting a 6.1 out of 10. I did not visit the restrooms or anywhere else except the table and don't remember how the atmosphere and cleanliness was because I was too busy stuffing my face. I would say the service we received was a 8.8 out of 10, always having full drinks. We will definitely be going back. Please keep up the good work!

Went for breakfast to check this place out because I’ve been to the brothers restaurant, Nick’s place and I wanted to see how they compared. I ordered the New Standard ($8.5) which came with pancakes, eggs, sausage for me. It was came out quick and it was delicious. The service was good at the bar area and I definitely will be returning in the future.

Perfect hole in the wall breakfast and lunch diner. Small parking lot and small diner but perfect for the feel and experience you get while having a meal here. Nice bar if you want to get your morning mimosas on. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be back here.

Must have when in buffalo! The homemade bread is absolutely amazing! I had the cinnamon apple walnut pancakes and the skillet with Italian sausage. The skillet was definitely my favorite!

Excellent place to eat the toast is a must try, buttery warm piece of homemade toast. The food was delicious, and no one complained, which was terrific cause we looked around for a local good-rated breakfast, and we found this one in Buffalo, NY. The waitress was friendly and interactive, with a good sense of humor. We had to wait 30 mins on a Sunday to be seated, but it was worth it. If you are near this area and have the time, it is a must-try place.

Bright lights, the oven is hot and a full staff hustling in the back! The action is happening, La Nova making plenty of noise slowly pushing it all out. Wings fried and then chard, combining the best of both wing worlds. Sesame seed, old world oven crust , cheese stringing like a spider’s web.

With the cool summer breeze charged with the restaurant’s air conditioning door opening as its patrons enter and exit, the good eats scents only escape to tease you at your seat while waiting to be called to your open table. The Bloody Sunday arrives, topped with a perfectly chard crisp bacon 🥓 and dunked with a martini olive. King Benedict on homemade Italian bread 🍞, the guards are prepared for the holidays. Off the beaten path, Sophia knocked it out!

Love the breakfast skillets here. Always a good size portion and yummy. Highly recommend their homemade toast. Only complaint is that they are often so busy they don't answer the phone, so for takeout, you're best walking in and placing the order in person than trying to call it in.

Best breakfast in the area!! The quality of food is excellent and the service is always wonderful.!

I strongly suggest, you go to Sophia's for your breakfast or Lunch cravings. There maybe a 20min+ wait time, but it is so worth it. Looking over their menu you will come to realize, there is something for everyone. You have your salads, breakfast dishes, burgers, and many other sandwiches to choose from. The place isn't really that big, but you still have plenty of comfortable room. Will be back, again and again Blueberry pancakes- delicious and full of fresh blueberries Omlette- South buffalo full of filling and really good Toast- Enjoyed the crispiness but chewiness of the buttered toast

Breakfast was very good, as usual. Cooked just the way I like it.

The parking lot was full on a Friday morning, and there was a wait, but it went quickly - no surprise, the service was fast!! Fluffy, sweet pancakes, crisp bacon, and a really delicious omelette. This place has all the best parts of a good, filling breakfast.

We were very positively surprised with this local. Our breakfast was very tasty. The service is fast and of high quality. The staff is very friendly. The menu is ordinary. Everyone will find something for themselves here! At the same time, it can be seen that the place has a tradition and has existed for a long time, it would not be bad to change a few pieces of furniture. Anyway, I rate the food here and can recommend this place. Parking is also easy to find on the right side of the place or in the surrounding street.

Waited an hour and didn’t get served so we just left. People got served before us that came in after us. Too many restaurants in Buffalo to wait an hour for three meals. Complained several times but was so rudely dismissed. Btw, bought a Soulvaki.

Great food great service the only downside was the hour wait for a table. Highly recommended we came all the way from Canada to eat here. Well worth the drive

This was such a gem! It’s clearly a local favorite as you can expect a bit of a wait. But the space is nice and large. The service was wonderful! My group and I came in with luggage as we’re visiting and they went ahead and stored it for us during our meal. The food is classic diner breakfast food. The Florentine Benedict is a solid choice!

Absolutely amazing! I see why they say Sophia’s has the best pancakes in Buffalo. I opted to sit at the bar and have breakfast and Allison was the best server EVER! She was kind and sweet to everyone who walked in, she gave great recommendations and was so attentive to everyone’s order around her. Thank you so much Sophia’s can’t wait until next time!

Best breakfast I’ve had in the states! I’ll go back for lunch/dinner. So fresh, tasty and clean!

My friend and I went last weekend and it was closed due to the 4th of July holiday, so went there today and totally worth going again. The food and the service was great, especially the pancakes! Absolutely delicious!! The server/bartender was really sweet, the whole staff were very friendly, and the restaurant gave a nice homely vibe. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone and will visit it again.

The food is so delicious, fresh & served hot. Customer service was the best. It's a really cool spot to eat at w good food & chill vibes.

We really liked their food and service. There was a wait of 15mins but best part is they have chairs so you can be seated while waiting outside the restaurant. They have two rest rooms, one for women and one for men.

A very good American breakfast in a very authentic atmosphere. For us Europeans it is in a very unusual area where you first ask yourself whether this can work out. Restaurant is a bit older and could have some refurbishment. Staff is friendly, hardworking and fast,

Delicious breakfast!!! A very cool place. Food: best breakfast in buffalo! The omelets were great. Homemade toast was perfect. Service: our waitress was awesome. Friendly and attentive Atmosphere: very cool, clean, diner feel Highly recommend

Visited on a Saturday morning around 7:30 am and it was already filling up so we were excited to try it! The staff were extremely attentive and service was very quick. The meals were good portion sizes and I would definitely recommend the eggs Benedict. As we exited, we noticed there was a lineup. The parking situation was a bit tight.

Very nice small restaurant with a very friendly atmosphere and staff. Staff is awesome very attentive to customers needs always making sure coffee and water are filled and are very helpful with recommendations of food choices. The atmosphere is quiet cozy comfortable. They open 0700 and by 0715 the parking lot is packed. If you come after parking in street only option. Food is delicious made to order with reasonable prices. I would definitely go back and patronize this hidden gem in North Buffalo.

I had the best experience of my life at this restaurant. The customer service was to beyond excellent. The server Stephanie at the bar today was truly knowledgeable and helpful with explaining the menu I truly appreciate her. Great food I had the French toast with banana listen to me it was the best French toast ever.

Great experience at Sophia's today. Love this spot. I usually go for breakfast, but today we went for lunch. They've gotta have one of the best burgers in the city. Also, everyone who works there is super friendly and nice. Highly recommend.

This place came recommended from the girls at Luigis Bakery and we are sure glad that we stopped. That Hot Mess Breakfast Sandwich was absolutely incredible and can’t wait to get back there again.

Great food , great service.
