This is one that's been on my list for a while. Finally I was able to make it here today for lunch with some colleagues, and I can say for sure it was AMAZING! I got there at Noon on a Friday, it was not too busy but we were a party 5 so once we got in the place looked a bit crowded as we had wait in line to order. When we got to order it got busy, so another server came in to help take our order so we didn't have to wait for long. The ambience in the restaurant was amazing! It had a an amazing Latin vibe with great music playing and food to back it up. I was with two people who grew up in Miami, and they agreed with me so I know this was a good Latin restaurant. Coming to the order, I got a shredded chicken torta with no cheese along with their spiciest salsa and verde salsa on the side and the boiled (they had fried as well, but I just wanted to be healthy) yuca. The torta was delicious, the spicy salsa gave an amazing kick to it and it chomped it down in no time. The boiled yuca was a bit bland but the verde sayce helped with that. With my friends from Miami loving this place, I will definitely be back here to try out mlre items out of their menu! read more

Our latest order from Sofrito Latin Innovation kitchen was AMAZING! My coworker and I love this spot but sometimes have issues with ordering through Grubhub. Issues such as ordering an order of chicken empanadas and an order of beef empanadas and they're in the same box and you can't which is which. However, with a call ahead to ask for separate boxing, they followed through! The server on the phone was kind and understanding. The food... wow! The empanadas are AMAZING. BOTH the chicken and beef are perfectly cooked and filled with flavor. My friend ordered the Bistec con Tostones and loved it! She orders with black beans instead of refries beans. She wishes there was cheese involved and will order a side of cheese on the future. She loves the house dressing and the Peruvian. Wow! So cilantro heavy and yummy and creamy. I ordered the ACP and ADORED it. Perfectly cooked chicken and rice was lovely. Broccoli, onions and zucchini on point. I'm personally obsessed with the pink dressing and poured it over my whole bowl. Love love love. Will be back. Thank you! read more

Latinx food is a must on Tuesday's, so I figured I would try something new. Located down from massage envy & Harris teeter. Wanted to start off with one of my favorites, ACP. It was hot and fresh, I just had one issue. The cheese sauce was weird. It's usually a Mexican queso type sauce this one was like Alfredo sauce. It was weird. I got a churro. It was big, fresh, warm, crispy and delicious. The Passion Fruit agua Fresca was yummy too. The waitress was very sweet. read more

Last time I came by they were closed early. They close at 2pm daily til the evening. Today, I walked in and saw some people behind the counter. I waited to be seated but they eventually told me to order at the front and then sit after asking where I should sit. They could use a sign to let patrons know that's the process for table service. I guess I'm used to being seated and paying after the meal, but this is fine. I went with the ropa vieja because it's one of my favorite Cuban foods. I asked for the spiciest salsa and they gave me the brava. Food came out quickly. I was expecting tostones but got maduros which was fine. I liked the ropa vieja but the habichuelas were bland and wasn't expecting uncle Ben's rice. It was a decent portion for the price. Would I come back.. sure. It wasn't my favorite but has potential. The lady did come and check on me and was friendly. I will note the bathroom wasn't very clean. It's clearly been neglected as evidenced by the toilet stains, dust, and old contact lenses on the sink itself. There was no paper towels but they replaced it as soon as I told them read more

The food here is top notch! The carne asada fries and fish tacos are so amazing, we have a hard time branching out to try the rest of the menu. The owner gave us a helpful tip about doubling up the toppings on the fries and boy do they hook them up! I need to weigh the box the next time we get takeout because it is honestly impressive. Just be warned, you may want to share or only order the double size when super hungry. The fish tacos have the best batter I have ever experienced. That paired with their delicious sauce is heaven! We have recently started splitting entrees so we can try other items on the menu and our latest discovery is the arepas. I would recommend those as well. Especially paired with the house salsa. Honestly, I haven't had anything from this place that I haven't loved. The owners are super nice and although the place itself is a little small, it is nice and clean. I'm pretty particular when it comes to getting takeout because a lot of things do not travel well but we haven't had any issues with our food from Sofrito. Even the fish tacos' batter is perfectly crispy after being boxed up and brought home. So long story short- check them out! The food is tasty, the service is friendly.. what more could you want?? read more

Every time I come to this place, I'm completely amazed with the quality and flavors of the authentic food. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone, and if you don't know what to order, just do like I do and ask the manager to surprise you and you will be Very pleased! I'm sorry to see they are moving to Greensboro, but I hope everyone will support them there as well. I'm definitely looking for them there!!! Good Luck! read more

Picked up a fantastic dinner from Sofrito's Latin Innovation Kitchen last night. Been there several times before, and always have a delicious and satisfying meal. Last night we got the ACP and the Cuban Sandwich with a side of yucca fries. The ACP had two thin cuts of chicken, along with the rice and cheese as expected, but also had a nice spread of veggies; zucchini, broccoli, and onions. It was great, and a little more than we could eat and one sitting, which left a little extra for lunch today. The Cuban sandwich was one of the best I've been able to find in the Triad. It's got everything you want in a Cuban, flavorful pork, and ham, with meaty cheese and crispy dill pickles. The yucca fries are also great, perfectly crisp outside, but a mushy inside. They are my go to side whenever I dine here, and the creamy salsa they come with is the perfect dipping sauce for not only the yucca fries, but real adds some extra flavor to the Cuban as well!! I've recommend Sofrito's to others in the past, and will continue to suggest it to other looking for some new flavors. It's always fresh and delicious, check it out! read more

(3.75 stars) Formerly housed in the Four Seasons Mall food court, a stand-alone Sofrito opened in Oak Hollow Square (between GNC and Dragon Wok) shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. That timing may have caused Sofrito to slip under everyone's food radar, unfortunate given that it is one of the few pan-Latin eateries in the area. Sofrito's menu offers sandwiches and entrees from California to South America. Some (burritos, tortas, street tacos, and arroz con pollo) will be familiar to anyone accustomed to Mexican/Tex-Mex cuisine while others represent the flavors of the Caribbean (Cuban sandwiches, churrasco sandwiches, ropa vieja) and Colombia (arepas). Gluten-free options and a veggie plate further enhance Sofrito's menu diversity. After two visits, the food rates as good with some dishes clearly stronger than others. On the low end of the spectrum, the Cuban sandwich was dry, and the tostones were both dry and overly salty. Neither holds a candle to what you'll find at La Palma or a decent food truck. On the other hand, the churrasco sandwich featured some well-seasoned meats, the accompanying maduros were wonderfully sweet, and Sofrito's take on fish tacos may be the best version I've had: plenty of fish, flavorful batter, nice textural balance with the cabbage, pico, and sauce. Speaking of sauces, they offer several salsas made in-house, and the pink sauce makes for a versatile complement to many dishes. Most of Sofrito's offerings can be found in the reasonable $7-9 range with a side included. Portions aren't huge, but they are adequate for the money spent. The owners, an Army veteran and a second-generation restaurateur, are friendly and patient. Given its affordability and appealing concept, Sofrito is well worth investigating as a lunch option. Some trial and error may be involved in finding a favorite dish, but if ever you've posed a "Where can I get...." question about Latin American food in the triad, Sofrito may very well be the answer. read more

Very disappointed in this restaurant. Where the owner was pleasant and attentive, the food didn't measure up. Ordered the Cuban and as you will see it wasn't full of meat and sadly didn't go down well. I've had better Cubans at non-Latin establishments. Very disappointed once again. I expected much more. read more

Ever since I went to Ceviche's in Wilmington, I have craved their Ropa Vieja. Sofrito's Ropa Vieja comes very close. It's not as good (I'm sorry), but it is very good. The meat is tender. The food is fresh. You get a good serving of food. It's presented well. You definitely can't go wrong here. Obviously, I usually get the Ropa Vieja, but I've also had the street tacos. And the tres leches is amazing! I'm craving it right now. I usually order from UberEats, so I've never been inside unfortunately, but they package everything very well. It's presented beautifully. Highly recommend! read more

Just say NOfritos, nasty nasty nasty!! Ordered street tacos with ground beef. Definitely wasn't ground beef. Also they never gave me my salsa for my side. My lunch companion Ordered a Cuban. They said they had a better Cuban at an Italian restaurant. JUST SAY NO! read more

FINALLY!!!! I found a little slice of authentic South Florida Heaven. A 25 minute drive for Bandeja Paisa take out was more than worth it. I've had this at various Miami Colombian restaurants like Rinconcito De Alex El Paisa, Los Arrieros, Rinconcito Paisa, and is spot on!!! If you're in the Greensboro/High Point/Winston Salem area and are homesick for some authentic Miami Latin fare, this is the real deal!!! read more

I saw this lovely veteran owned restaurant after stopping by the UPS store and the name alone was a must try for me. I went early hoping to avoid the lunch rush and was glad I did. I was warmly greeted by owner/host. We chatted a little bit and then I sat down to wait for my food. I went basic because it was my first time and had Street Tacos with a side of rice and beans with House Salsa. The Street Tacos were good, but the house salsa brought happiness to my mouth. The fresh cilantro with vinegar and onion all melded together nicely. I didn't taste much habanero pepper, but I think too much would've distracted from the taste so it worked. I was stuffed, so I took my Tres Leches cake to go. I was disappointed by the cake. It was a bit dense where it's usually very light consistency. There was milk at the bottom of the container, but very little came with each forkful of cake. There wasn't much whipped cream on top of the cake, it was more decorative than actually part of the cake. If you're looking for great customer service from a family owned establishment and a nice yet quiet place for lunch, I highly recommend this restaurant. There were many Door Dash orders (probably because of the nearby office parks) so dining in is great. I would've given 5 stars, but the Tres Leches made me sad. read more

I'm always a big fan of Colombian food. After "Colombian cravings" closed in Burlington, we had to drive to Charlotte to get some Colombian food. However this little latin fusion place has many Colombian items. It is a good little place and everyone was inviting. The food came quickly and came out perfect. I would call this place casual dining as the food is delivered on disposable plates and utensils. This is also a place where you order up front and they bring it out to you. No wait staff at the tables, but they make sure to take care of you. Overall great food and friendly atmosphere. read more

I went to visit a few weeks ago. While the food was phenomenal, it took almost an hour for my food which I ordered online and no one was in the restaurant to eat there either. The portions leave you hungry. The skinniest papusas, I thought they were tortillas (or arepas). The Carne Asada Papas Fritas were very good. I also ordered maduros (plantains), they were good but for 4.50 I was expecting more. It literally had to be just 1 plantain. Seeing they are a restaurant, I'm sure they're able to get plantains on the dollar. I basically paid $4 for them to just fry them. I make them all the time myself. I was expecting more. Also, I paid extra for extra cabbage which was $1. In the photos you will laugh because I received like 2 forks of the cabbage. I doubt they gave me extra. Lastly, after waiting forever I asked if there were forks and napkins inside because I was traveling and the owner said yes. When I got halfway to the car there was none and I had to go back inside. I felt lied too and even if it was a mistake, after an hour, everything should have been double checked. I would visit again and would have to order multiple. This is like Tapas style. Now that I know what to expect. Photos of food posted. Also, they put food in styrofoam and it melted. This is so unhealthy and contains cancer causing chemicals. There is no parchment paper underneath so it touched my food. read more

What an incredible lunch was had at Sofrito on Cinco de Mayo. I knew better than to go to a Mexican restaurant on that day because it's just too busy, but I was craving some sort of Spanish, Latin or Mexican flavors. I'm so glad I chose to come here. The place had several patrons, both seated, actively ordering and the waiting for takeout. The gentleman taking orders and running the food was so nice. He really had customer service down pat, we we like to say here in the south. You order at the front stand. They have several ways to look at the menu, both on the wall menu board, a specials board and on paper. We sampled a pulled chicken rice bowl, bistec con tostones and tres leches for dessert. We definitely treated ourselves! The rice bowl had a choice of protein and pick your own salsa. I tried the verde salsa and the house salsa. The house salsa was definitely the better of the two. So refreshing! The bistec con tostones took the cake too. So tasty, filling and worth every penny. And last but not least, the tres leches was probably the best I've ever had. There was a prominent cinnamon flavor in the cake itself and was so light and fluffy! I'm still dreaming about it! The dining room just opened back up about a month ago and they do an incredible job with Covid safety measures. Pre packaged salsa, bottled drinks and lots of hand sanitizer available. Masks were worn, apart from eating, and the tables are social distanced. Support this restaurant when you can. You won't regret it! read more

The ropa vieja tasted like it was reheated. Not something that I am used to. The rice also felt generic and out of a box. That was my wife's plate. I went with the Cuban sandwich. I didn't like it. The pork was bland and the sandwich wasn't fully pressed. Something I found really weird. read more

I was so excited to try a place that had not been reviewed and whose menu looked so intriguing. Unfortunately, my excitement was blunted by a disinterested employee and pedestrian food. After studying the menu, I decided on a Latino classic: arroz con pollo. What could go wrong? I'll never know, because they were out of chicken. Obviously, I was disappointed, but I actually understand that a place might run out of things during these times when restaurants may have to adjust their ordering and inventory. The problem I had was with the total lack of concern or apology. He actually just yelled back to the kitchen "do we have chicken?", then turned to me and said, "yeah, we don't have chicken." Flustered, I ordered a Cuban sandwich and some pupusas. Cuban: very average. The pork was a bit dry and tough. It was hot and melty, but the taste was merely decent, and it had very few pickles. Pupusas: these were the most meagerly "filled" pupusas I have ever seen. Was there even any chicken or cheese in them? Hey, wait...I thought they didn't have chicken. They had the authentic corn taste characteristic of pupusas, but the chicken and cheese filling it supposedly filled with were embarrassingly lacking. The tomato sauce it comes with was so watery, one could hardly call it tomato sauce.  Fried plantains: the highlight of the meal. They were sweet and excellent. Probably the single thing saving Sofritos from a two star review. When I picked up my food (25 minutes instead of the suggested 10-15), the order taker and the cook argued a bit back and forth about what was and was not in the packaging. It all ended with a look of derision from the cook directed at the order taker. It was a bit uncomfortable and unprofessional. I think this place has potential, but they'd better get it together if my experience today is typical. read more

OMG!! This food was sooooo good. I had the Cuban sandwich, which was flavorful and delicious. Got chips and salsa on the side and the chips were nice and warm! My friend got the arepa and tostones. Hers was super yummy too. They have a variety of salsa and sauces. I liked the creamy cilantro best and the verde salsa was good too. The bravo was HOT! I love trying different sauces and salsas so that was a treat. This is a clean little place that I wish I had discovered earlier-I need to make up for lost time. I now want to try everything on the menu! Highly recommend! read more

The food is fine, not bad but nothing special to get excited about. It's served on a styrofoam plate so it's a very small portion. There are upcharges on several items such as choosing beef as your meat, certain side items, salsas, plus a 4% credit card charge. I paid an extra $1.50 for tostones and only received 3 with my order. For water, you will not be given a cup. They charge $1.25 and it's a Members Mark (Sam's Club) bottle. No napkins or silverware in sight, you are given one of each. Air conditioning is kept to a minimum as there is a fan running in the dining area. The restroom was absolutely filthy. read more

Ya'll. This. Was. So. Good. The pupusas were delicious. And that was the best flan I've ever tasted.

VERY good flavor!! I wasn't sure what I was getting when I called and asked what dish would be comparable to steak, rice & beans, tostones. I went with his suggestion and added the black beans. It's very filling and delicious! When he asked if I wanted to add the black beans on top of the rice, I didn't realize it would be a cook's spoonful for the price of $2.25! Next time no beans!! I thought that price would be a side of them in a cup! Lesson learned. The 3 huge tostones were perfectly crispy and salted. I will return! read more

I had lunch here today with 2 of my friends. The menu has a wide selection of Cuban dishes, appetizers and desserts. I got the appetizer with 3 empanadas and a side of fried plantains. Wonderful!! I tried the cilantro sauce, which is their most popular condiment, and it was amazing. My friend chose the Cuban sandwich, served panini style, and was very pleased. The owner was helpful as we ordered, and gave us tips regarding our tastes and preferences. The restaurant is clean and comfortable and the owner was friendly and attentive.

Visited recently. I had no idea this place even existed. Tasty, authentic Latin food. I'll definitely be back.

After a long day, I felt adventurous. Let's eat somewhere unique. I don't recognize anything on the menu and there is one photo on the window. I ask the clerk, "is there anything that comes recommended?" This jack hole reads me every entree on the menu. Cool man, I really wanted to give you my money to feel insulted. 10/10 won't visit again. (Food was good tho, compliments to the chef). read more

Tried this spot today after having not been to High Point for a while. Began scanning Yelp for suggestions & happened upon Softito. They're located at the intersection of Wendover and Eastchester/Hwy 68, in the shopping center that used to be the home of Steinmart. They do not offer dine in but you can walk in & order at the register. They also have a couple of tables with umbrellas outside the door. I'm fairly certain the gentleman who assisted us is the owner; he was very nice and welcoming. I ordered the arepas with carnitas. It also had cheese, black beans, rice, lettuce and tomato. It was crispy and delicious. My husband got the chicken torta and he loved it as well. We will definitely come back to support this small business. read more

Being from South Florida, Sofritos is welcomed Latin inspired restaurant in High Point. The menu offers a diverse selection of Latin foods. I found the Arroz Con Polo to be favorable without being over powering. The grilled chicken was tender and the vegetables cooked perfectly, crisp and not soggy. The rice was perfectly cooked as well, not dried out. The owners were very gracious and engaging explaining the various menu options. If you like Latin food, I would recommend giving Sofritos a try. read more

This is a Veteran owned company which is a plus as my wife and I are both retired military.

Good variety of Latin foods: a little Cuban, a little Mexican, a little Colombian, etc. Clean friendly family spot run by a husband & wife. I placed a take-out order on a weeknight close to closing time and they cheerfully stayed open a little late until I could get there to pick it up. Ropa vieja (Cuban shredded beef) was tender and tasty, but a slightly small portion. Black beans were meh. Certainly not bad, but a little bland. Platanos Maduros (dark sweet plantains) were excellent. Evenly done and cooked just right to bring out the sweetness of the fruit. Fish tacos (a plate of two) were fried whitefish with fresh crunchy onions and a flavorful cream sauce. Fish breading was nicely seasoned. I would have preferred grilled over fried fish, but the frying was nicely done. Chicken Empanadas were mild with an almost-sweet pastry which held a little oil from the fryer. Good straight up and improved by a dip in the creamy pink sauce. Tostones had a wonderful chewy, crunchy texture. I really enjoyed them, especially with a splash of green Peruvian sauce, but they might be a little salty for some tastes. Overall, a satisfying take-out meal and a fair value. We will definitely go back and try some other items on the eclectic menu. read more
