    Garlic knots
    Jaclyn G.

    Went here with family for pasta night. Love the amount of choices you get. Garlic knots were very good an my carbonara pasta was decent. Also tried their pesto pasta which was tasty. My biggest issue is that my fiancé and I seemed to have gotten sick from the cheesecake. We took it to go and realized that we both had very upset stomachs after eating it. Willing to give it another try because my aunt speaks so highly of their food.

    Stuffed Rigatoni
    Daphne Y.

    I moved here a few years ago now and my now husband took me here for the first time about a year or so into me living here. After eating there, the first time, I was like why haven't we come here before? The food was so good. I had been let down by quite a few of the other Italian restaurants we had gone to but after coming here, we go back for most special occasions and order delivery from here. We had our engagement dinner here. It is busy most nights. They have specials on something most nights of the week. Chicken night. Pasta night. My favorite dish to get there is the Stuffed Chicken Rigatoni. So good. Chicken is cooked perfect. And the SAUCE. really makes the dish. My husband loves the stuffed veal when it's one of the specials. I also tried a special one night, the salmon and scallop risotto. Wasn't a huge fan of the scallops but the salmon was good. We are a big fan of their appetizers as well. We have gotten the mozzarella de carozza. It's heavy especially if you're getting a pasta dish entree as well but it's delicious. We usually eat half and take half to go. We also have tried their prosciutto appetizer, our other go to. We also alwayssss get tiramisus for dessert and sometimes cannolis too. But the tiramisus are huge and taste so good. Definitely some infused Kahlua.

    Came here for Chicken night on Thursdays which I never do and I was very happy with my order and portion size. The waiter was sweet as well! No wait buy maybe it's because it's winter but the place was packed! To start off, the garlic bread and salads were delicious and then comes the huge meal! Cheesecake and tea to go!

    Grilled chicken over spinach and mashed potatoes.
    Paul C.

    Started off with a couple of apps and about 8 garlic knots were provided rather than bread. Fine by me. The fried calamari and chopped baked clams. Standard good. Nothing amazing but the calamari came with a shallow bowl of sauce instead of the usual skimpy bit of sauce that makes you inevitably need to ask for more. 2 thumbs up on providing a proper amount. When the entrees came out my chin hit the table. The pics don't do the meals justice. The waiter placed the dish in my hands so I could put it down. Must have weighed 12 pounds. My wife and daughter got equally impressive amounts as well. You may say "You got a lot but was it any good?" It was VERY good. All 3 were delicious. Grilled chicken over spinach and mashed, Sautéed chicken over shrooms and asparagus and fried chicken cutlet and eggplant over rigatoni. The waiter Greg was thorough, attentive and personable. I've been there many times for pizza but never on the restaurant side. Their pizzas are super fresh and they must keep at least 20 varieties at all times. Each one looks like it was just made.

    Great food, friendly service, great dine-in options for lunch and dinner. Food is always fresh.

    Carbonara and chicken parm
    Chelsea A.

    Called to make a reservation but was told they don't take reservations. So I had to wait 20 minutes to be seated (Sunday night for dinner) The service was great, the waitress was friendly and efficient. The plates felt like they took awhile to arrive, but they were big portions. They do provide take out boxes if you can't finish. The food: The calamari we ordered was hard to chew, and not so tasty unfortunately. The Carbonara I ordered was creamy, had the right amount of bacon bits and was customizable; I asked the onions to be removed. The chicken parm was huge, no way you can finish the plate in one sitting. Overall, nice, crowded, stuffy, loud, family restaurant.

    Ambiance on point-old school Italian vibes. Great music-had a fantastic DJ, I was singing the whole time. Our service was fantastic, very freindly waiter with good suggestions. Food 5/5-try the calamari and penne all vodka Great vibes all around. Try it out when you're in the area!

    Chicken Marsala Slice
    Carmen C.

    I love coming here for lunch! They have such great pizza creations. My favorite is the chicken Marsala, it's so flavorful and I can taste the wine reduction very well. The guy behind the counter was very nice to let me taste some of the toppings when I first went there. I would definitely come back to try each pizza creation. The inside had plenty of seating during lunch time. I wonder what they're like during dinner time.

    Chicken Panzanella
    Tom G.

    Had tried their pizza and takeout a few times, but wanted to wait till I had a sit down meal here first before I gave my full review. To start with the takeout though, the pizza is delicious and they have specialty slice options galore, and perhaps my favorite buffalo chicken slice. A key theme here though, portion size, these guys do not skimp! Chicken parm hero was the same way, I borderline could have had that thing for 4 meals! But more than just quantity, the quality is still there. Everytime I've put in orders, they were always ready on time to boot. Now to the restaurant portion. Came on a busy Sunday night with no reservation and had to wait about a half hour, which is what they told us to expect. The place does seem to get quite busy, so don't be shocked if you need to wait. Once sat, the waiter was excellent, I believe his name was Roberto, very professional. They start you with some garlic knots for the table and the we ordered the chicken panzanella and the chicken bellagio. Now looking at the prices at first I thought I really was at the bellagio in Vegas, a little pricey I thought for Italian, but when the food came out, I got why. MASSIVE plates of chicken and pasta that I comfortably did get four or five meals out of by myself. Personally I think the chicken bellagio was a little under salted, but still tasty but the chicken panzanella was done well and everything was obviously very fresh. Definitely would love to come back and try more of their options, just perhaps with a bigger appetite, or more friends to share with! Atmosphere is also very nice, classic rustic Italian kind of feel without feeling like you NEED to dress up. Plenty of parking in the front and side with the attached lot.

We were seated in the back of the restaurant and enjoyed our space. Our waiter (wish I remembered his name) was extremely polite, attentive and great. We had complimentary champagne which was such a nice touch for Valentine's Day. Our bread, like last year, was delicious. More was brought out upon request and the next batch was sooo hot, soft and fresh. Our fried calamari was good but a little too soft. Could've used a little more crunch. My rigatoni Ala vodka was incredible. Filling but incredible. Had to take the leftovers home. My husband's dish (pappardelle) was amazing, as well. Last year when we ate here, I was pregnant with my daughter. We were so excited to have our daughter join us here this year that we had to take a picture in the same spot as last year's picture. I asked the owner who took our picture last year to take our picture again this year. She actually remembered us from last year AND where we sat! How cool is that?!

She confirmed him after he walked away, he denied it, and never came to her table again except to drop the check. Every time after that when she is there he avoids her. On March 27th when a fight broke out among patrons last night at Sophia's, people complained to the owner, Rico, and manager Marcos, who replied, "Just ignore it." When advised that one offender may be drunk and drugged, they replied, "People are gonna be on drugs, you want us to screen people at the door?" Lesson for Sophia's: when someone, anyone, is disrespectful at your place of business, you... wait for it... You eject them. March 21st, I went to see a singer at Sophia's of Amityville, and at one point, in passing, I found myself talking to Marcos (manager? who books acts) at the podium (I forget why) and he said, "so you want a gig?" Then he opened the book said he had Thursday April 23rd open. I said I was already booked with someone on the 26th, he was confused, then went to that page, saw that I was correct (my partners name was there), then ADDED my name... I watched him do it. SO, THERE IS NO WAY he "oops" double booked. Yet, last night, after I announced my partner and I would be there on the 26th, soon they informed us that they double booked and another performer was on that night, not us. So far, 4 people have messaged me and said they had the same "double booking" problem where a performer shows up and Sophia's tells the performer they are canceled because of "double booking". In other words, they are stealing from performers who could have worked somewhere else and now lost the opportunity to earn a living simply because the performer had professional integrity and courtesy to keep his/her promise. Friday, March 27th at Sophia's in Amityville a fight broke out [[the 3rd case that I know of]] started by a drunken, (possibly drugged) out-of-control table of 4 (couples, 2 men 2 women). The management, the staff at Sophia's, did NOTHING to stop it. No intervention, no ejection of the offenders. They ignored it. The couples' behavior had been disturbing most of the evening. Instead: Sophia's allowed them to pay their bill, THEN - those 4 ppl moved to the bar where the bartender (who witnessed it all) served them shots after they had consumed 3 bottles of wine at dinner. The most offensive part to me: well, after all that - Sophia's was actually talking to one of those 4 ppl, a guy named Joe, offering him a singing job there...

We got a high top table in the bar area which was fine. Reservations seem to be a must. People started pouring in and the restaurant and bar filled up rather quickly. The wait staff is just lovely, especially our server Andrew. They start you off with some warm crusty bread and a trio of options for it; butter, olive oil and a cheese spread. We started off with the eggplant meatballs and they were delicious. Served with a lovely tomato sauce, ricotta and some cheese shavings, they were so so good. For the entrees we went for the Pork Osso Bucco and there was a daily special for a Lamb Osso Bucco. First of all the portions are huge, their "dinner plates" are really platters. So while prices are on the high side you get a ton of food; and I must say the food warrants the price. Back to the entrees, the pork Osso Bucco was sublime. The meat shank was super tender and the sauce was superb. Served with a fantastic squash risotto and garlicky zucchini zoodles, it was all perfect and I had a another full dinner to bring home. The lamb version was unctuous and delicious, topped with a demi glaze, served with risotto and asparagus it was another fabulous dish. Baccaro is a wonderful spot for a fantastic meal in a lively, comfortable setting.
