Dinner started off with delicious garlic bread and dipping sauce. Table has all the condiment trimmings of red pepper, salt, pepper, Parmesan, and garlic powder for the diehard vampire hunters. Pretty pleased to have an option for a ridiculous amount of garlic. Breaking open the bread and seeing the steam unfolding into swirls past the crisp outer layer was a gorgeous sight. Dipping sauce was good as I added a bit of the added table condiments. Dinner came with a dinner salad. I ordered crab and shrimp ravioli which was dressed with carrots and peas. I added an obscene amount of garlic and capers for an added flavor composite. The raviolis were absolutely delicious. By far some of the best ravioli that I have had in the recent years. This was my first to experience crab and shrimp stuffed ravioli and they did not disappoint. The added capers really kicked it up. Dessert was going to go the norm of tiramisu but the Dubai Chocolate cake caught my eye and salivated my mouth. The pistachio and Katafi pastry filling was superb. The slight katafi pastry crunches against the creaminess of the pistachio was texture heaven! Highly recommend this dessert! Overall my meal was wonderfully done. From start to finish, I was given great service and more importantly a full belly with an Italian ambiance. As a solo diner, it was a pleasure to visit here and enjoy a delicious meal! Will be back again Shoutout to Ariana the server on my returning visit as she was incredibly genuine and well attentive to my returning visit. Ordered an appetizer of meatballs which came out piping hot. Sauce was delicious. Made mini subs from the garlic bread. Dinner was Chicken Carciofini. Sun dried tomatoes, spinach, and chicken was seasoned well in sauce over angel hair. Found the dish refreshing in flavor and truly a new favorite of mine. Dessert was a key lime pie to go. Excellent tartness was matched with the sweetness of the topping.

Updates of Texan eateries I like (1 of 2)…read more The food, the service, the small store ambiance, the parking situation, and the value are still excellent at Ivett's in League City. There should be no need to write an update. I see that my initial review was written about 5 years ago. This is about how they handle the transferral of totaled tabs to the credit card. When I go to the Houston area, I usually eat lunch at Ivett's twice a week - yes, it's that good. And it's doable because I tend to stay in their "Bay Area," which is south of the city near Space Center Houston and in the suburbs adjacent to large Galveston Bay. Here's what the deal is, and this happened last year and a year or two before that. When I get the bill, it's usually a number that has cents attached to it, thus an "uneven" sort of number. To this, I add a tip. If the final bill were to be $12.72, for example, I might add $2.28 to bring it to an even $15.00. (I've asked restaurant employees over the years if this is weird and they tell me they have customers who do this.) Fast forward to the charge hitting the credit card. In 2025, one charge went through a meaningless few cents higher and one charge went through without the tip altogether. I've never worked in a restaurant, so I don't know how the process works where the final bill is sent over to the credit card company. In this situation, I came out ahead. But that's not the point. I want the employees who were my servers to get their tips and get what I indicated on the copy that I signed. This same exact sort of scenario showed up a year or two before when I also visited twice ... with one lunch charge coming across without the tip. Another lunch charge must have been processed with an even dollar amount as the tip. Again, I came out ahead, if you even want to look at it that way, but I want the employee to get his or her tip. The price-quality-quantity here remains at 5 stars. That's why I have filed Ivett's away in my head. I've now landed on the pattern of lunch specials that I like in any given week - a chicken dish and the manicotti dish, so I come in for those. I did try the lasagna once and, since this is in the U.S. of A. and not fine dining, they use the thicker undulating sheets of pasta that I'm not a fan of. It's to be understood. It's what most Italian-American restaurants do. That dish might come in as a 4. I applaud Ivett's for being a small restaurant that is intent on serving its customers and its community. However, if the tip for that one customer's meal is $2.28, $2.74, or $3.11 because the customer is seeking to hit a "normal" looking final number, then it's $2.28, $2.74, or $3.11. And, if they don't enter the tip at all, then I feel bad because the employee didn't get their tip and it makes me feel cheap ... cheaper than I already am to some people. Fix this little clerical issue by instructing your employees how to do so ... and keep up the good work! I look forward to seeing you all (translation: y'all) the next time I'm in the area.

There is an anomaly of Italian history and NASA history, especially upon entering the restaurant. A group of us went during lunchtime. I had Baked Lasagna and a humongous Ceasar Salad.

Another person had Manicotti and loved it, Shrimp cacciatore was okay per one in our group. The last person, a child order Macaroni with ham and loved it. Soft drinks, tea, red and white wine served.

When we walked in, we were greeted and ask if we were picking up or staying, I answered we were staying. We were taken to a nice table, which was cleaned by the hostess, and seated. We got our menus and water, then it went downhill from there. We watched tables being served and nice conversations between wait staff and customers. Sadly, after more than 5 minutes, no server approached our table. The menus were down and we were ready to order. And... no one came over. We were passed by several times and the table next to us was checked on, but not us. So we didn't get to try anything as we took the hint that we were not important and left. Hopefully we misunderstood the idea of service here and didn't wait long enough. But more than 5 minutes with no hint of service was more than enough for us to wait. Good luck Frenchies, I'm sure your regulars will keep you moving along.

One bad experience can simply be an off day, and one amazing meal can be a one time success. A second visit tells you whether a restaurant is truly consistent. I am happy to say that Sofia's delivered both times. The pizza is delicious. It may not be the kind of pizza that changes your life, but it has everything a great pizza should have, a flavorful crust, quality ingredients, and great flavor. That said, do not come just for the pizza. A personal pizza is perfect to share as an appetizer, but the entrées are the real stars of the menu. I ordered the trout, and it was one of the freshest fish dishes I have had in a long time. It was cooked perfectly, full of flavor, and served in a generous portion. The vegetables were fresh and cooked just right, and the pasta that accompanied the dish tasted like something you would expect from a good Italian restaurant. My wife ordered one of the lunch specials for less than $14, and it was equally impressive, original, delicious, and generously portioned. Sofia's is the kind of restaurant that earns repeat customers. I will definitely be back, and I would gladly recommend it to my friends and family.
