Grilled pork chops over rice pilaf with onions

Was going to a recital with friends on Saturday and our group of seven decided to stop for an early dinner at Sofia's. I am so glad that we did. We ordered a variety of appetizers and meals (I tried the salmon croquette app and grilled pork chops) and all thoroughly enjoyed them. They had a lot of good choices on the menu, plus specials, all reasonably priced. Service was good and our waiter made sure to explain everything and answer any questions. The restaurant was packed, another sign of good food. I will be back!

This is exactly what you want from Mediterranean food. Everything was delicious and prepared just right. I especially liked the grilled octopus. Service was solid. I came on a Tuesday night with two friends and we didn't need a reservation; we were seated right away.

Came for lunch and it was amazing as always. Great service and delicious Mediterranean food.

Octopus

Back at this fine establishment. First time trying the skirt steak and after probably 100 visits, how did I miss this meal. It was spectacular, soft, and tasty. Service as always was great. Inside can be lo nous but they have outside seating also. It's a byob. Grab your favorite wine and a friend, enjoy a great meal.

Fried calamari

Everything on point. Food, staff, vibe. Only wish they were closer to me so I can eat this stuff every day.

There were six Dolmades a moment before. Ha!

I am extremely picky, especially service and cleanliness. Sophia's exceeded at both. We were warmly greeted by Tony and escorted to our table. We sat outside which was lovely. Our drinks arrived just as we finished reading the menu. We had fried calamari, which was excellent. It was a lightly coated, perfectly seasoned and fried just right. The dolmades are just as they should be. My entree was the lamb burger. It was cooked to the medium requested and the rest of the ingredients had a perfect balance so they played nicely together, none overpowering the other. My husband had the chicken gyro. He raved. And the fries... I've never had anything like before. Excellent! Finally, for dessert we had rice pudding which was, thankfully, not to sweet and a delicious recommended walnut cake. On our way out, we found Sophia to be sweet and gracious. Back to Tony. If you visit Sophia's, ask for Tony. Not only is he fastidious about his job but he is also very entertaining. We were lucky to get him and will request him in future.

I was recommended by my colleagues to check out Sofia's. My partner and I were seated outside on a beautiful Saturday evening. We had a great experience here. The food was absolutely delicious, from the apps to the mains. We were advised to get the shrimp saganaki....literally the best decision ever. It was almost like a lasagna. It was one of the highlights of the dinner, we wanted more. The grilled octopus was good, but not the best I've had. For our main we ordered the mixed platter with a side of horiatiki and greek fries. The meats were tender and flavorful. We loved the fresh veggies and feta. The greek fries were crispy and delicious, perfect side. We had some food left to take home. Also nice BYOB addition to the restaurant. Parking is fairly easy on the street. We will be back! :)

Falafel! Delicious!

I've been wanting to dine here for quite some time and I finally had the chance to experience their delicious mouth watering food. So happy to have gone. The server was friendly and attentive, offered a few things on the menu along with their specials. Everything was PERFECT! I want more, want to hurry back and have the grilled calamari which was outstanding in flavor and texture. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Nothing was overwhelming salty, Just perfect. Outdoor seating available and with umbrellas. I can't wait to go back.

Black Sea bass
Nicole F.

Cute, small, casual restaraunt. The food is consistently good. This time I tried the Black Sea bass special that was served with Horta (which is similar to spinach). The appetizer eggplant dip is one of the best we've ever had. It is byob so remember to bring a bottle if you want to have some wine with dinner. It does get very busy , you can call before you go to check the wait time. In the summer they have outdoor seating too. Street parking can be a challenge.

Do they deliver?

They use door dash or Uber or some such best if you call to verify. I've seen them loading up suvs while I was picking up my food.

Do they have a liquor license or is it BYOB?

The staff was welcoming and attentive, and the menu had great options across the board. Food-wise, I have zero complaint everything was flavorful and well prepared. A special shout-out to Rola, the owner, who personally came out to check on us and make sure everything was going well, which really shows how much care goes into the experience. It's also BYOB, which is a nice bonus and makes the night even better. Definitely a spot worth visiting again for great Mediterranean food, a fun vibe, and an energetic atmosphere.

Service was great and wonderful, the young lady always checked up to make sure everything was great. Food was so tasty & had flavor to it! I had ordered octopus with hummus, it was very well cooked & I had to have pita on the side. I also ordered shish kebab filet mignon & as well very well cooked, not overcooked or dry at all. The rice was plain, which was okay for me. The onions definitely made up for it to combine it together. To top it off I also got fried calamari, it was a little bit chewy overall still had flavor to it. My go to drink was a mint lemonade that they make it into a slushie. I never had a mint lemonade so the taste to the drink was new to me but I loved it! You could bring your own liquor becusse they do not sell that. Overall amazing place for a quick lunch or dinner!

THE FOOD ----------------…read more+ Assorted Hot Platter - Mini cheese pies, mini spinach pies, grilled vegetables and rice wrapped in grape leaves were all very fresh and delicious. Definitely a good way to try a little bit of everything. + Gyro Supreme with Lamb Souvlaki - Huggggge gyro with a massssive serving of deliciously fresh fries. Gyro meat and lamb souvlaki cubes were excellllllent. Lots of tzatziki inside. Easily could have saved half of the entire entree. + Gyro Supreme with Chicken - Same as the above for the fries and gyro. Chicken was fresh, surprisingly tender and absolutely delicious as well. + Grilled Chicken in a Pita - Same as the comments above. THE SERVICE ------------------ + Waiter was friendly and patient. + All of our food was served very quickly. THE SURROUNDINGS -------------------------------- + Very local, homey feel to the restaurant. + Restaurant is located right by a set of train tracks. + Interior isn't huge, but still has a decent number of tables. + Big private parking lot outside. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- + Came by on a Sunday afternoon at 12 PM and it was verrry quiet. There were 2 tables already wrapping up their meals, but we were the only customers inside for the next hour. - They charge a 4% credit card fee, so try to bring cash if you want to save a few bucks!

Turkish cuisine is a unique combination of flavors, spices, and herbs developed over thousands of years, influenced by the Central Asian nomads and Arabic, Persian, Italian, French, and Eastern European cultures. While New York has some great Turkish food if one knows where to look, most of it leaves some room for improvement. Could Jersey be better? The town of Carlstadt has mainly residential private homes, with a spattering of condos and garden apartments. The main shopping area is all of about three blocks long on both sides of the street. Translated from the Turkish language, meaning sultan, we have come to this family-owned/family-run establishment located on Hackensack Street since 2006 for Saturday dinner. The reservation was easily made by Google Assistant. Upon entering this hidden gem called Hünkar Restaurant as first-timers, my partner, our friends, and I were greeted by the staff inside a cozy room, where ethnic pictures and decorations as well as the music all add to the vibe. A great view of the NYC skyline is visible from their enclosed back patio. Their menu features Mediterranean and Turkish cuisine with a modern twist and serves alcohol. As an appetizer, we decided on the Kibbeh (Icli Kofte), Calamari (Kalamar), and Cigarette Borek (Sigara Boregi). For our main meal, we opted for Chicken Saute (Taouk Sote), Shrimp Kebab, Lamb Shish Kebab (Kuzu Sis Kebab), and Chicken Shish Kebab (Tavuk Kebab). All Kebab meal accompanied by rice, char-grilled tomatoes, peppers, and a small salad. Warm, fluffy pida bread with a crisp crust started our meal. Every dish bursts with authentic flavor and is beautifully presented, from the fact that Turkish families from all over the area eat here. The staff is warm, welcoming, and very professional; our server was Akincan "John," the owners' son. The price was comparable to the area with the right portion. We can recommend this place.

The portions are fantastic but the quality is what sets it apart from a lot of other places. On a nice day, do yourself a favor and ask them to see you in the back enclosed porch where you will get a view of NYC.
