    Nduja Pizza
    Vi Y.

    Yummy!!! We had pizza the night before, but it fell a little short so we were still craving pizza. Sophia's was so good. I like how they didn't cut the pizza like how they do it in Italy, but they still gave scissors. Great dough, classic Italian style. We got the nduja, but the meat was super salty. It would go great with a bottle of wine or a beer, but I'm not drinking right now.

    Nduja (near), margherita (far)

    Loved the pizza and sitting out on the patio for lunch! We had a margherita pizza and the Nduja as well as the burrata dipping sauce and everything was great! The combination of sweet honey with spicy sausage on the Nduja was perfect. Great pizza!

    Starving after a long day of hiking and expecting the usual mediocre touristy food options, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality pizza Pizzeria Sophia offers. We opted to sit outside to enjoy the view. While the menu includes some pasta options, we focused on the pizzas. These Neapolitan style pizzas are about personal sized, we ordered the Nduja (5/5), Margarita (3/5), and Pepperoni (4/5), and a Caesar salad (5/5). The undercarriage of the pizzas were thin, soft and chewy and the crust was perfectly airy, the only downside was some portion of the undercarriage was slightly burnt. The refreshing Caesar salad came with real anchovies and house sauce. They actually provided scissors for each pizza which was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this place!

    Located in downtown Banff as one of the street level restaurants. We sat outside since it was very pleasant. I honestly didn't expect a good pizzeria in the touristy portion of Banff but was pleasantly surprised. We ordered a Caesar salad (surprisingly good, and came with real anchovies and a house dressing, 4/5) to start. We split three pizza's; a margherita (3.5/5), a pepperoni (4.5/5), and a nduja (4.5/5). Really solid dough and pizza crust and the tomato sauce was a good quality sauce. Only complaint is that the bottom was slightly overdone on some portions of the pizza. For the meal; it came out to around $100 CAD prior to tax and tip. Much better than expected for a pizza spot in a resort town!

    Pretty solid Italian food, most known for their pizza. We did try the Nduja aka spicy pork sausage pizza. We thought the pizza was tasty but a little salty. Their crust is light, fluffy and excellent. The Roman spaghetti was also salty. Their two salads, were the best though. The Panzanella and beets and burrata were excellent. Light, clean ingredients and very fresh.

    Outdoor seating had a nice lookout on one of the side streets. Happy hour on for half off pizzas and drinks was excellent (loved the glass). The torpedo was okay. Pizzas are definitely the hot spot but are kinda small personal size. We had Nduja and pizza alla vodka - nduja is definitely a must - a little spicy itself, and we ordered the pistachio honey chili crisp as an extra spice kicker. Definitely a must and would come back for the pizzas and drinks during happy hour. 9.5/10 worth it for the deal.

    Caesar Salad with chicken added

    I was a walk-up hoping to grab a seat. The staff greeted me and seared me at the bar. They have both outdoor and indoor seating. The ambiance inside was just "cool". The music was instrumental without being distracting, and perfect at creating a good vibe. They're more than a pizza joint. This place has a lot to offer and new spins on the regular dishes. Ultimately I had a Caesar salad with chicken.. quite a big plate! I was lured there with the promise of the best pizza in town. I was not let down... absolutely amazing. Recommend getting the dipping sausage on the side, you'll thank me later!

    Good spot! Can see why the reviews are so positive. Pizza had good cook and flavor and drinks were spot on. Happy hour is 3-5 with 50% off pizzas & drinks, can't be beat!

    More cocktails
    Mollie N.

    You've got to go for happy hour!!! We had Sophia's recommended to us by multiple different locals, and for good reason. We stopped in to check out their espresso martini that we heard was awesome (it was) and we ended up canceling a dinner reservation elsewhere in order to stay for more! The bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable, the food is great and the overall vibe in this place is good! We ended up going back the next day to try a couple more of their cocktails. This is a must stop spot for drinks in Banff!!

    Great service. Good quality food! The 50 layer lasagna was such a treat though smaller than I expected.

    Meatballs
    Ingrid Y.

    Fun little place with some pizzazz! Great service even though they were really busy. I ordered a chili mango margarita which was a little different - smokey- but good. We ordered the mortadella meatballs appetizer and those were amazing!! And we got the 'Nduja pizza. A sweet red sauce with spicy sausage, red onions, and basil...really good...and we don't usually like sweet pizza sauce. Glad we came!

    Service was awesome, the apps were incredible. Pizza was solid. All around would recommend this if you're in the area!

It seems like quite the après ski spot, but I don't think any of the people there actually went skiing that day. It was basically a huge frat party on the rooftop with canned beer for purchase and a DJ. If you're looking for a nice, classy spot to watch the sunset - this is not it. We were crammed in the corner next to their barricaded section of the rooftop and didn't stick around longer than it took us to finish the drinks we bought downstairs.

Everything tasted high quality and thoughtfully prepared. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the whole place had a great vibe.

Karaoke rooms available for large groups with high minimum spends. However, when it comes to the food, I've got issues. The happy hour menu boasts several discounted (half price) sushi rolls, which sound great. However, in execution, they are flooded with mayonnaise (not included in the menu's ingredients). This adds so much extra salt and oil to the sushi that it drowns out the true flavor of the fish. For the first time in my life, I couldn't finish my sushi, and I had no desire to eat any leftovers. Also, reservations are not required, but they definitely help (and require a credit card reservation). If you show up for happy hour, get there early, becasue the space fills up fast!
