I don't even know where to start!! Service: amazing. Decor: beautiful. Food: bussilicious. We came at peak brunch time around 10:15 on a Saturday and there was a sizable line but it moved quickly and we ordered within 15 minutes. The food came out so quickly (like literally within 10 minutes of ordering) and there was a person directing us to a table after we ordered so weren't awkwardly waiting for people to leave. Now onto the food. Everyone raves about the french toast and I can see why. We expected it to be good but it was so moist, fluffy, and buttery that we ate the whole thing up. There was a slight saltiness and crisp got hr edges that just made it perfect. It is definitely super sweet and a treat though so it can be shared. The egg sandwich was also good but not much different from breakfast sandwiches we could get anywhere else. We just really liked the milk bread they used. The tater tots were awesome though. Perfectly crispy and salted. The coffee cake was good but could honestly be skipped. It was slightly dry at the edges and I wish the crumble on top was thicker. My friend also really liked her iced tea and said it was the perfect sweetness though. Overall, I would definitely be back!! I really want to try the corn waffle and crustless quiche next time :p Rating French toast: 5/5 Egg sandwich: 4.5/5 Tater tots: 5/5 Coffee cake: 4/5 Iced tea: 5/5 read more

SOPHIA'S A BRUNCH CORNER @ MIDTOWN The egg sandwich was very filling and the salad was refreshing. There is a decent amount of outdoor seating but not much indoor. The place was very cute with many people going for brunch photos. Overall 4/5 read more

This brunch spot is a must try in the valley. From the moment you walk in the restaurant it produces a fun and upscale vibe. The interior was very clean and so well decorated. Their patio area is huge and well shaded. They had an ample amount of parking for downtown. The customer service was outstanding for a restaurant where you order at the counter. I loved their rotating drink menu in addition to their regular drink menu. I got the waffle, bacon, and the strawberry matcha special. The waffle was delicious and well presented on the plate. I loved the The bacon was tasty. The matcha drink was also great. The blue corn waffle was well made and a large portion.i loved the honey butter with Chile. It was a sweet and savory dish. The service was fast and they did not rush customers despite the line. The music was good but not overly loud. I look forward to my next visit. read more

Sophia's is absolutely worth the visit, but here's one piece of advice: arrive early! This place is incredibly popular, and if you show up later in the day, be prepared to stand in a long line under the blazing Arizona sun. The wait is worth it, though. If you're ordering, do yourself a favor and choose anything that includes the stuffed milk bread. It's soft, pillowy, and the perfect complement to the rest of the menu, making every bite even more memorable. Plan ahead, beat the crowds, and you'll be rewarded with a fantastic meal without the extra time in the heat. Sophia's has earned its popularity for a reason--I just recommend getting there early so you can spend more time enjoying the food than waiting for it! read more

Overhyped? Not really, this place a was actually really good! I see why the line is always pouring out on to the street every weekend. 30 minute wait in line is somewhat worth it when we finally sat down and had an interesting and tasty breakfast. I like the service here, friendly plus once we put in our order, they make sure we have a place to sit which was probably the most satisfying part of the whole experience. Cube of French Toast with a pleasant surprise in the center was paired with a breakfast cereal match drink. Both were delicious. Worth going back to see if everything else is this good. read more

SO DELICIOUS BUT CRAZY! This place is so cute! However, even on a weekday the place is packed with a line to the sidewalk outside. It is hard for staff and customers to navigate around the restaurant. Staff seemed confused bringing food and drinks out, not sure where to go. One of my items got forgotten. However, everything was absolutely delicious. The breakfast burrito was dripping in chorizo flavor. The tater tots were perfectly crisp, with a delicious spicy aoli. The French toast with tres leches was to die for! And amazing aesthetic presentation too. My latte was strong yet sweet. The only negative food wise was my friends avocado was hard. All in all, I had a good time but it's way too crazy inside to enjoy it and for me to rush back here soon. read more

Incredible food and atmosphere, only downside is it's primarily outside and we chose the hottest day to go to brunch haha incredibly good sandwich and tots, the French toast (not pictured) was also fantastic. Arguably and this may sound crazy my favorite was the prickly pear lemonade. Sandwich with tots and lemonade was $25, a little expensive but definitely quality and delicious read more

Super cute spot! Try to get here early as it does get crowded quickly. Intimate spot with a great outdoor patio. I ended up getting the Honey Bee Latte which is a summer special and it was delicious full of flavor. I opted for the Golden Corn Waffle and when I tell you, this has got to be the best waffle I've ever had. It was truly delicious. Glad I made it to this spot and plan to be back! read more

This location came recommended. While it was super cute in there, I wasn't completely impressed. I paid $14 for a corn waffle with red chili butter. There was nothing special about it and I felt it was over priced. Service was quite good. The young man was on it the entire time. Filling water, cleaning up plates, etc. I've been, but won't go back. read more

Tried Sophia's Kitchen Breakfast Counter after seeing all the social media hype. Be prepared for a long wait... it took about an hour just to get inside, but the staff was very kind and brought water out to everyone waiting, which was appreciated. I ordered the breakfast fried rice and felt the soy sauce was a bit overpowering, but the lavender latte was delicious and definitely my favorite part of the meal. Overall, the experience was good, but a little overhyped compared to what I expected! Xo -BB read more

Omg this is hands down the BEST breakfast/brunch I've ever had! Their fried rice was full of different vegetables and had so much flavor!!! And then- for breakfast dessert I had the stuffed French toast... Perfection!!! I was only in Tempe for a few days, but made sure to hit this place one more time before my flight back home just to have that French toast again. There was good music playing, the area was nice and clean, and we had friendly service. Wow. read more

Hubs and I heard about Sophie's and had to give it a try. Everything sounded delicious. We ordered their famous French toast and their egg sandwich with a side of eggs. This was absolutely delicious! French toast was on the sweeter side but tasty. The egg sandwich was filling but a bit messy to eat. The tater tots and the spicy mayo sauce were the winner for me. This place gets packed! We arrived on a Saturday morning for breakfast around 8ish and we were lucky to find parking right away. There is seating inside and outside. Order your food and then find a table. Food will be delivered to you. Service was friendly and quick. We will definitely come back! read more

Met up with friends here on Sunday and we we enjoyed our visit. The line was long when we arrived but it moved pretty quickly. The restaurant is beautiful and has a nice open concept. The decor and colors all go well and gives it a clean welcoming vibe. I ordered the BLT sandwich with an iced black tea chai + vanilla. The rest of our orders included an American breakfast, an egg sandwich, and the honey dill chicken sandwich. For pastries we shared one French toast, one cinnamon roll, and one Guava pastry. The pastries were all delicious. The French toast and cinnamon roll were my favorite. The French toast was served warm, it was fluffy, and had the right amount of butter on top. I really enjoyed my BLT sandwich as the bacon was delicious. The waffle fries it came with were flavorful and crispy. Service was great, everyone was friendly. Dont panic for a table, the employees will seat you after you have ordered! Overall, totally recommend. read more

Such a lovely little brunch spot! I love the flowers, the cacti, the arches, and the green pastel hues. It's all really pretty and tasteful. The food is delicious. I had the egg, avocado and cheese breakfast sandwich (not the official name), which comes with a side of tater tots. My friend had the crustless quiche (essentially, a frittata) and that was tasty too. The best part was of course that insanely delicious French toast. They have decaf espresso if you're sensitive to caffeine. Went on a weekday right at opening time before work, and there were only a couple other people there. Plenty of parking spots. Though I do hear that it can get really crowded. Sat outside and the music was just a tad bit loud to carry a conversation. I think the place still deserves 5 stars, but the lady who took our order was not very pleasant. She wasn't rude but she came across as very standoffish, and never cracked a smile. It seemed like she wasn't very happy to be there. read more

After all the posts on social media, we had to come check Sophia's out. We went this past Sunday morning. Upon arriving around 9:30am, there was a line out the door to order food. However, it moved pretty quickly. I'd say we waited about 20-25 minutes. After ordering, we were told to pick any open seats and that our food would be brought to us. Surprisingly, the food did not take long. It was probably about 40 minutes from the time we arrived to receiving our food, which is not terrible considering how busy this place gets. We ordered a breakfast burrito, an american breakfast, and a French toast, a cold brew, and a honey bee latte. The food was delicious. However, the coffee wasn't so great. It tasted somewhat watered down, hence why I'm only giving four stars. Other than that, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant's vibes were also really nice. read more

We had wanted to go to Sophia's and actually made a couple of attempts, but as you'll see from my video, this place gets seriously long line. In the past we've just gone someplace else and vowed to come earlier in the day to avoid the line. We got up early-ish for a Saturday morning and made our way to Phoenix. I really love this building which was repurposed from an old house from the 1940s era. There's a glass wall that completely opens that runs diagonal across the building, and a patio with giant shades. A long silver communal table runs down the middle of the room and there are lots of little tables dotted around. Although this place is nearly designed, it has a fantastic retro look with white globe lights. They're also lots of plants and the place just feels bright and airy. There is a glass case with delicious looking pastries, and although there's no official bar, they do serve some cocktails like mimosas. We arrived at 9:00 and the line was already relatively long. My son grabbed a table while I got in line to order the counter - - this is a place where you order at the counter and they'll bring you your food when it's ready. We ordered an iced vanilla latte, a pecan sticky bun, chicken schnitzel which came with Caesar salad, and a honey Dill chicken sando. There was a mix-up, which I fully take responsibility for, and we did not receive the chicken sando - - again, my fault. We asked one of the servers about it and we learned it was never added to our order. No worries though, because the schnitzel and Caesar salad was gigantic and we ended up splitting that and the sticky bun. It was plenty of food for us. I have to give kudos because when we were out in the parking lot, the manager came out to hand us a gift card for the inconvenience of not having the chicken sando added to our order. It was not a big deal and it was my fault, but she was very kind and gave it to me anyway. I 100% recommend Sophia's, just come prepared to wait in line. It's worth it. read more

Came here with moderate expectations and left feeling pretty neutral overall. The atmosphere at Sophia's is nice and has a welcoming vibe, which I appreciated. The service was good, employees were friendly, though a bit inconsistent with timing of the food. The food was okay. Some were enjoyable and well presented, but others felt a little underwhelming when it came to flavor and execution. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out either. It's a decent spot nearby phoenix airport if you are looking for something casual. I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come back. Overall, a fair 3 out of 5 stars experience. The parking situation gets a little crazy and shortly after we arrived there was a line formed out the doors read more

I've been so excited to finally come here since it's opened, and it totally didn't disappoint! As soon as I ran out the corner and drove up into the parking lot, I noticed there was a huge line which I was not surprised since it's only been a few months since opening. I did have to park pretty far down the lot, but there were definitely still plenty of spots left in the area. I waited in line about 45 minutes and this was around 10 AM. This was all good, because my eyes certainly had a feast upon the brilliant retro-modern decor and airy ambiance. Right before we reached the counter, an employee seated us to order through her. I'm assuming they split everyone near the counter whether it's a to go or a sitdown order? Nonetheless, we were glad that it was seating by a waitress since we were worried that finding a spot was going to be a challenge. I got the Matcha martini and the waffle, which was corn based I believe. Absolutely scrumptious!! The Matcha martini had a very deep Matcha flavor and it wasn't overly sweet, which was exactly how I liked it! 10/10!! The waffle was equally just as good as it was corn flavor, so it had a slightly savory profile to balance its sweet toppings. I couldn't get enough!! I'm excited to come back to try the rest of its menu. They partner with local foods like Provision and Noble Bread! Classic Arizona faves. The coffee on the menu was also very reasonably priced! read more

This was a pleasant surprise! Originally had plans for another spot but that place was closed so a quick search and this place was an option. Met with a friend here and we were greeted as we entered. Super cute layout, all open to the outside, which may get a bit harsh with the warmer temps but it was comfortable in the morning. Limited parking next to them, but was able to grab a spot. Walked over to the line where they had menus to look over. Everything sounded great! Opted for the breakfast burrito with an iced vanilla latte. They also had pastries so we obviously had to try two! The cashier was very nice and helped us decide between 2 pastries. Got our number and found a table in some shade. Drinks came first and my vanilla latte was great! The berry danish was fresh, sweet, and refreshing! My breakfast burrito came an it was amazing. Full of eggs, chorizo, and cheese, albeit not overflowing. It was served with these super delicious and crispy tater tots that I wish I had ordered an extra side to go! There was a side of this salsa that I personally was not a fan of, but they did have a station with other hot sauces & cups of water you can grab! Great experience, attentive staff, will definitely be back, even if it's just to order something to go! read more

This place is POPPIN. We came at 9:30am On Sunday and there was a big line- thankfully it went fast but my friend who showed up at 9:45 had to wait 20-30 minutes longer than we did to place her order. So COME early especially on a weekend. The ambiance is incredible!! We LOVED the open views it was so unique. The staff was super friendly- shoutout to MAY! She ensured we got seated right away and then grabbed us a table. I got the breakfast burrito which was just OK- but I did enjoy the tator tots on the side and my Cinnabon roll was super yummy! If I'm in the area again I'd love to try something else! A very cute brunch spot read more

This spot came highly recommended and sadly the food was not it. We live in an age where beautiful Instagrammable spots get a lot of attention because of the esthetics seem to outweigh the main character which, in my opinion, is the food. Don't get me wrong, this spot is too cute. Nostalgic of California vibes, the place was clean, the staff were very attentive and professional. Plus, the bathrooms were clean also. So I will give credit where credit is due. However, the Breakfast fried rice was very much lacking. I heard and thought it would be all the rage but the rice did not seem to be fully cooked and tried to add hot sauce, spicy mayo, anything to help the flavor but it did not help. We also tried the Breakfast sandwich with the side of tater tots and spicy mayo. The tots won the show and thats saying a lot considering they were overdone. But that spicy mayo was the great assist. Maybe it was the day, a Saturday or the time we went, the afternoon, maybe it was the triple digits that had something to do with the Breakfast fried rice not hitting the spot. But definitely give Sophia's a 10/10 for their presentation abilities and customer service. read more

If you're a carb lover, this new Phoenix brunch spot is about to become your favorite. From pastries to French toast to breakfast sandwiches, they truly don't miss. The vibe is modern, colorful, artistic, and super bright. Perfect for a laid-back weekend brunch. It's outdoor seating only, and you order at the front before the staff seats you (sometimes at community tables, so you might end up brunching next to strangers). Service was friendly and welcoming, and the food was spectacular. Honestly, not a single bad dish. The French toast was decadent, buttery, soft in the middle with perfectly crisp edges. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and beautifully plated (a little on the heavy side, but worth it). And the tater tots? Perfectly fried with a super yummy dipping sauce. Pro tip: get there early. By 10am on weekends the line wraps around the building. My only tiny critique (because I'm picky): the coffee syrups are Torani, which is a bit of a bummer. But aside from that, this spot is superb! read more

A nice breakfast out! Cute business with thoughtful touches of decor and color inside and out. Very busy on Sunday morning with limited parking available. The wait in line was about 25 mins, but it wasn't too bad. The staff are very kind and attentive, running food to tables, checking on guests, and someone helping find an open table which was really helpful since it was so busy. We ordered the fried rice and breakfast burrito to eat and an iced dirty chai and latte to drink. Our drinks were delicious. The burrito was very basic so I would like to try something else next time, but it came with a side of tots so that was a nice perk. A nice place to grab some food. I wasn't wowed by anything here, but I am glad I came to check it out. read more

My friend and I stopped by Sophia's a brunch counter last weekend for brunch and it was pretty good. To order here, you wait in a line outside which was pretty toasty in the sun but they also had an outdoor fan to help people cool off. We waited for about 45 minutes before actually ordering but they provide menus to look over before you get to the counter. I got the valley latte and subbed honey for vanilla and it was pretty good! I also got the breakfast sandwich and the bread is so fluffy and delicious (I bet the French toast is amazing) it's just so fluffy it kinda falls apart for the sandwhich functionality. The vibe here is really cute and a fun place to visit for a casual brunch vibe. read more

Sophia's on Thomas: Beach-Side vibe in the desert I love it that coffee shops are becoming destinations!!! I am not one to shy away from experiences! I am enjoying taking a Coffee Tour around the city! Honestly, most coffee shops have a similar feel. Most of them do things right: be inviting, comfortable, and create an amazing social space. But, I recently had another design-genius-with-a-latte-machine moment in this architectural marvel. The Unique Detail: This structure is one of the most aesthetically pleasing spaces in Phoenix. I kept thinking how amazing this building would look right on the beach! It has that breezy, high-end coastal feel that makes you forget you're in the desert. The Pro-Tip: I went at 7:00 AM on a weekday morning, so I didn't have to endure the long lines and the crowd that descends on Sophia's over the weekend. Who says Brunch is just for the weekend? If you are following my #PHXCoffeeShopTour, then you know, I am a plain Cappuccino kind of person. Nothing exciting about drinks for me, but this was the best one I've had in quite a while! They used Provision coffee for a double shot in a small cup--the coffee-to-milk ratio was absolute perfection. Well-balanced and flavorful without being overpowering. The Food: I opted for the Salmon and Quinoa bowl to keep it healthy. While I'm not the biggest quinoa fan, I wanted to kiss the chef for that salmon! It was cooked to perfection with the kind of lovely crust only a skilled chef can pull off. Next time, I'll just pair that salmon with something else. Return Factor: 100% More to come from my coffee shop tour! #PHXCoffeeShopTour #1CupAtATime read more

Fully expected a brunch place that was just here for the vibes. Came out incredibly satisfied with the food, service, and overall experience. Located next to the Beadle building on Thomas, Sophia's mimics the design with a metallic exterior while introducing beautiful arches, soft earthy tones, and an open-air environment. It's worth a visit for the building alone (don't forget to check out the restroom), but I was so impressed by the food!! The hidden gem: Sophia's Burger. I know this is a brunch spot, but you can't miss out. As someone who has only occasionally *liked* burgers, I can honestly say I *love* a burger for the first time. The quality and cook of the beef, with a bit of pink, was superb. There's a perfect ratio of caramelized onions, comté cheese, and oniony sauce (no drowning in ketchup or mayo!!). And the fries were SO crisp and well-seasoned. The ever-so-popular French toast was a hit too. The caramel interior was deliciously rich, and the bread was soft but not soggy. It's incredibly sweet as French toasts often are, so I recommend sharing, but it's a nice decadent treat. Service seems to have found its flow, and we were quickly guided to an open seat on a busy Friday after ordering. Water and utensils are conveniently ready at a clean station. This is certain to make me visit my boyfriend next door more often :') read more

What a unique and fun place to visit! We decided to hold our small team meeting here for brunch and not knowing what to expect, two of us arrived first and found a table on the patio. We really wanted to be inside just because it was a tad cool and eventually a table inside opened up so I skirted over to claim it. The server came and cleared the table but never came back to wash the table. I just used a couple of napkins to sweep off the crumbs. And little did we know but eventually the entire glass wall was opened up and it was just like sitting out on the patio! I also want to mention parking! It is tight and not easy to find a spot and we discovered that you could park in empty spots over at the office building next door but it was a small parking area for sure! Very small place with limited table and counter seating. You line up and order, are given a table number and food is brought to you. Everyone was friendly and attentive. Seemed a bit unorganized at times but it seems to work for them! I noticed that when servers brought meals to the tables, they never picked up the little table numbers and then a bit later one of the workers came around and picked up all of the numbers from the various tables...interesting and wondered if it would work better to serve the table, grab the number plate and take it back to the serving counter. Ok, shrugs! They have a very limited menu but what they offer is spectacular! I decided to have the egg sandwich, which comes with this magnificent, very tender milk bread with egg, bacon, cheese, avocado, and a mayo spread that says spicy but wasn't in the least. Comes with a small cup of fried tots that have some of this same spread over the top. The presentation of the sandwich was like I've never seen...see the photos! I was so pleased and look forward to another visit to try something else! I also asked for iced black tea which turns out to be more like a mango or passion fruit flavored tea and was really nice. I also got one of the maple pecan muffins, which they call "handpies" to go for the wife. They have a great case full of handpies and other wonderful looking pastry-type goodies. Service was quick once ordered and when we asked about crowds we were told that weekends typically have a line around the building...I can see why! Really wonderful find! read more

This brunch place is a new and popular spot in Midtown Phoenix. The restaurant itself is beautiful. They had open windows and light airy decorations that made it seem bigger than what it actually was. It's a popular restaurant, so if you go at a busy time, you might find yourself hunting for a table after ordering your food. For the food itself, we got the egg sandwich and the golden corn waffle. The waffle was good and was unique. The egg sandwich was good but didn't really distinguish itself from other egg sandwiches. So I was a little disappointed by it at its price point. Overall, I would get the waffle again, but not the sandwich, and I would definitely return for the ambiance. read more

This spot was so incredibly cute! When we arrived on Sunday morning around 11:30 and boy was it packed on a perfect sunny day. The crowd wrapped around the corner of the entrance and folks sat outside feeling the bright sun on their happy faces. There was a lovely lady walking down the line apologizing for the delay and wait but there was no need for us, as we were enjoying spending time together in line, as I came with my MIL and daughter. It was so sweet. The foods looked incredible coming out and on people's tables so we were able to largely see a visual menu, which was so cool. We ordered a good amount of to go goodies and for brunch we had French toast and the breakfast fried rice and the Everly smoothie. I didn't get it but saw it a few times, the salmon, and knowing it's coming from Chula Seafood as one of their local partners - I'm sold. Overall experience was fantastic, delicious food, great service, attention to details, and the stickers they have that are free are soooo cute. I understand why the trend and how it got so popular and viral. But it's worth it and I'd wait again in that 45 min line to enjoy! Great work to the staff and owners- a gem of a brunch spot. read more

Interesting experience this morning, ordered the French toast and egg sandwich which were both good. The tater tots were a bit too salty. As we were finishing we saw a family looking for a table so we offered ours since since we were finishing up. We were abruptly interrupted by an employee that said "woah, woah, woah, how many people are you planning on seating here" (it was a table that fit 4-5) I looked at her and tried to explain we were leaving and that family that already ordered was looking for a table. She explained she needed to "control seating" and put a reserved sign on the table. I feel like she could've said thank you for stopping by, or been friendlier but it seemed like she was just waiting to see when we got up. I tried to make a reservation but never got a response so I assumed it's first come first serve and you sit after you have ordered. As we left I saw she sat a couple while the family was trying to squeeze at a small table. This place has a lot of potential, sad it was overlooked by the service. read more
