Food and coffee are quite good (in large part because they are all sourced from other local businesses). The building is BEAUTIFUL, but the vibes are absolutely awful. There are a ton of employees scrambling and doing things extremely inefficiently, like they literally have no system. They left bacon off a sandwich I waited literally 40 minutes for because the line was so long and full of stupid people who for some reason refused to look at the menu until they were literally ordering. The bathrooms are filthy. They played the same Madonna song 3x. And the worst part is that for some reason this place attracts everything that is wrong with society - wannabe influencers taking pictures of their food, each other, the building... Literally saw a lady ignore her 8 year old son for an entire hour while she took stupid pictures of her girlfriend pretending to drink coffee. Cool spot but not worth wait, chaos, and low quality vibes. This is a great place to visit once and only once. read more

Great new breakfast spot in midtown! The restaurant is beautiful with an amazing indoor/outdoor space. The egg sandwich is a must and the burger was incredible! The staff were fantastic as well. read more

The food was delicious and hot! Waitress and managers were so attentive and made the place so open and friendly. It was nice to sit inside and the windows/doors open up with this nice weather. I've been back twice in one week! read more

Amanda was by far the most accommodating manager in the industry i've ran into she's got a great personality and knows how to leave her customers happy, we where very pleased with the service we received! read more

Ambiance was the best part. The open air spaces are beautiful and nice decor. The coffees were also lovely. If only the food was up to par. We had the fried rice and the fried chicken schnitzel. Both were just ok. read more

I stopped in this morning for an iced Americano. The menu price is $4 but it came up as $5 on the POS. I pointed that out to the cashier and she called a man over (manager?) who corrected it on my order. They resolved it quickly and easily, so no problem there. My concern is how many people are unknowingly being overcharged every day, and how long has this been going on? If you're going there, I suggest you compare the menu price of whatever you order to the POS price so that you aren't being overcharged too. read more

So so good!! Also, well organized! Do be prepared to eat outside (there is some seating inside) however it is well shaded and cooled but it is Phoenix. But a great location... read more

Wow wow wow!! This place is stunning! You immediately feel the chic and welcoming ambiance as soon as you pull up. The restaurant is designed as a fast casual style. You order at the counter are given a number and then brought your items. My partner and I decided to share the breakfast burrito and the breakfast fried rice. The burrito was overflowing with perfect chorizo and perfectly wrapped in a tasty tortilla. It was served with a side of tator tots topped with a chipotleish style sauce. The breakfast fried rice was an explosion of flavor. Large chunks of bacon, crunchy veggies and flavor packed fried rice all topped with an over medium egg! We had a PB espresso martini and a glass of cava. Both fairly priced at ~$14 and $10. The food was about $36 for the two items. Flor, the owner, was a great help from the moment we stepped inside. She gave us recommendations and made sure our meals and cocktails were just to our liking-- which they were! It was a pleasure to meet her. This place is exactly what Phoenix needs. A great new brunch spot at a fair price and leaves you wanting to come back. I can't wait to come back for the breakfast sandwich! read more

Place had a cool feel to it. Plan to wait in line 30 min maybe. The food is great! My GF and I got the stuffed French toast, egg sandwich and the burrito! All very good! Side of tots with the aioli is amazing. Wish it had more of a sit down and order feel to it but other than that it's great! read more

Cute vibe and friendly serving staff. Food looks better than it tastes ("Baked eggs" is actually a bland frittata rather than actual baked eggs, breakfast sandwich falls apart in your hands and is a knife/fork situation). I figure they're new and hopefully get it dialed in. My only real complaint is that the influencer set got really obnoxious with how much space they took up in a very small seating area. (Plus it's really awkward trying to have a casual breakfast with a friend while people in full stage makeup are treating the place like a catalog shoot.) It's got a great location for me and they're clearly getting a buzz which is great for the neighborhood, so we'll keep be patrons and look forward to when everything settles in. read more

Great atmosphere, unique menu, overpriced. The food was good but not great. I found that both my food and my partners food was on the dry side due to the large amount of dry bread. read more

I've been waiting for this beautiful reclaimed building to open for months an be months. Inside is decorated very simply. Lay out is weird, small movable tables. Doesn't seem like it would be good for large groups, as it would be difficult to fit more than two entree plates per table. Music was way too loud to carry on a conversation and it was absolutely freezing. So cold inside that I was shaking while holding my latte. Counter service lends to a cheapening of the look of the place. I ordered the b breakfast burrito at the recommendation of the "host". Not sure why there was a host, since they don't seat you. I wish I could say it was good. I wish I could say it was bad. It was neither, just unmemorable. The salsa picante was so hot, it blew out my palate, which is why I may or may not have enjoyed the burrito. Portion of tots are freaking huge. Way too much (I know, complaining about too much is stupid) but it was. The vanilla latte with almond milk may be the very best latte I've ever had. I don't know what they did different compared to other coffee houses, but keep it up. Not sure if this one deserves a second chance. Overall, disappointing. read more

I can't say enough about this place! The food is delicious, the service is very friendly and efficient, all with great open air ambiance! So happy to be living by such a gem. read more

Had breakfast here this morning. I'm on the fence with Sophias's food choices. Bacon, chicken and salmon are the protein choices. In a sausage lady. Strike 1. The food was good, BUT I found myself up and down for salt, pepper, silverware, napkins, had to ask for butter for the toast. YES, I GET IT! It's counter service-maybe, that's not me but it seems to be for lots of folks, be informed. Service was good, I guess. The servers were delivering food, bumping into the patrons. Getting a table, FAST! The line was out the door, moves FAST. The ambiance is STELLAR! It is BRIGHT, OPEN AIR, BEAUTIFUL! The salt Shaker wasn't working and then am the salt poured out on my food. My potatoes were replaced, STAT! I received the wrong pastry but was made to feel like yes, that's what you ordered. Got it, leave it and go away. A pastry is a pastry, in not upset, but don't try to play me. My Matcha cold was tasty, NO BITTERNESS. We both had the American breakfast. The potatoes fried to the gods-PERFECT! My friend got tater tots, you can also substitute the waffle tots. I think it's the demeanor of the staff, an odd vibe; 'I want to serve you, but I don't,' I think it's what I felt. I can't call it. Parking has the potential to be a bear. I think the staff was overwhelmed because this place became popular, FAST. My experience left me with unfulfilled. Try it, it may be your spot. I'm undecided. read more

Honestly overhyped was so excited to try this place and was so disappointed.Not worth the wait the food is so bland and the chicken seriously needs seasoning.Took one bite and got so grossed out.The only decent thing was french toast but that itself is not worth the wait. read more

We were on vacation and this place was recommended to us. The line was out the door and we hesitated on staying. Glad we did, though we were ordered and sat with in an hour. The food came out quickly, great ambience, very hip and the food was delicious. We got the chicken sandwich and waffle fries, and the breakfast sandwich with tots. It was all piping hot, fresh and flavorful. Friendly, welcoming staff too. read more

Nice severs, good food, and option of indoor and outdoor seating. Food felt a little more focused on presentation as the sandwich was a little difficult to eat and most of the egg and avocado was at the top rather than throughout the sandwich. read more

quick and amazing service! food and beverages were great only complaint is the seating is too crowded for even small groups (5 adults, 1 toddler 2 babies) but they try to accommodate you as best as possible will be back! read more

Breakfast, coffee, and service were exceptional. We especially enjoy the relaxing outdoor seating.

This place is so pretty and the architecture is amazing! We came today thinking it's a Tuesday it won't be super packed and we were wrong it was still pretty packed but we still snagged a cozy table in the corner for two. The sun was shining on a breezy cool morning so it was perfect. The pistachio latte was pretty good. It was so good I got another one to go when we left for our drive back home to Gilbert. My daughter got the fresh squeezed orange juice and that was also delicious. The food was really good it was simple but delicious. The chorizo was one of the best I've had a restaurant. It tasted maybe locally sourced or homemade. The French toast I thought was going to be very "eggy" but it was soooo good the dulce de leche, butter, syrup, and flaky salt all went so well together and it was cooked perfectly no egg taste. The only reason I knocked off a start was because the young lady who was taking our order was very rude. I asked to change my latte flavor at the last minute because I didn't know they had pistachio until I saw the syrup on the counter and she huffed and rolled her eyes. (Ok it's early and I get it this was an inconvenience to change the flavor of the latte that wasn't made yet) We were done eating and I wanted to free up a table for patrons who were waiting for a table. While we were waiting for our friend (she lives in the area and I invited her to come for a latte run) I decided to order my 2nd latte for the road and my fiends latte and I asked the manager/owner if there was someplace we could wait outside she pointed across the parking lot and suggested to wait in there since it is a nice open space. So my daughter and I grabbed the lattes and walked across the parking lot to wait for our friend . We were greeted by a nice younger gal at the desk asked if we needed anything we explained we were waiting for our friend and the manager suggested we could wait in here. No problem. That's when an older Hispanic lady walked up to us and said this is a place of business we couldn't wait in there I said the lady across the way said we could we aren't going to be long we are waiting or our friend. She continued to be extremely rude and with it being Lunar New Year, I was in no place to argue. So we walked away for sake of argument. Overall the food was good and the place is beautiful and everyone with the exception of these two were extremely nice and courteous. read more

Outstanding! The space is great. Loved the open air design. Very well decorated. Staff was so friendly and helpful. The food was top notch. Perfectly seasoned soft scrambled eggs on incredibly pillowy milk bread. Fingerling potatoes well seasoned and crispy. The pastries looked incredible. It is not often a place lives up to the hype, but this place absolutely did. Cannot wait to go back! Well worth the wait. read more

Atmosphere was very nice. Service was amazing!! This was our first stop once we landed in Arizona. I felt very welcomed. Food is 50/50 tho. Egg sandwich and waffle fries were good. Kimchi fried rice was good also! Espresso martini first thing in the morning... perfect but the waffle was a little disappointing. It came out looking so good with the scoop of butter and gold flakes but It had a little weird aftertaste idk how to describe it. The breakfast plate was average, again the potato it had a little weird seasoning. Other than that I would definitely comeback to try something else! read more

Loved Sophia's brunch!! Staff and service was great and really enjoyed the breakfast sandwich and hash browns!

10/10 the line was long but it went by fast and was worth the wait. chorizo burrito was amazing. The French toast was also amazing. The price was just right. We are visiting from California and wish this place was closer. Will be returning in the future. I almost forgot the espresso martini is so worth getting. Currently craving another one. read more

I think this place is really over hyped. The restaurant is really cute and aesthetic but the food doesn't live up to the standard unfortunately. There were pigeons all around the outside tables trying to get food from the ground. The breakfast burrito was just ground beef and eggs and the American breakfast I could have made at home, the toast was even stale. The food came out really fast so part of me thinks they already made the food, warmed it up and bring it to you. So just fast food breakfast. I probably will never go back! read more

Absolutely love this spot. I had the chicken schnitzel it was on point. I'm also obsessed with the building. I haven't seen anything like this in Arizona. read more

Wow! I'm so impressed. I love the ambiance of this restaurant. To start I got the vanilla latte which was so yummy. Then, I got the breakfast sandwich and the waffle & both were outstanding. Even the side fruit was so good. Only downside was it took awhile to order, the line went pretty slow! But they're so new so it was expected. read more

I came in on the 21st & although the place is gorgeous and has so much natural sunlight I still have mixed feelings since the service wasn't so good for a Wednesday morning.

Get there early or plan to wait. It's a great little spot with lively vibe and great food. Parking is limited.

Finally went to Sophia's today and man it did not disappoint. I had the stuffed French toast and it was amazing. It's sweet but not too sweet. My husband had the burritos and tater tots and they were good too. So many things on the menu that sounded amazing and their baked goods looked delicious. Parking can be challenging and you have to get there early to get a table but it's totally worth it. read more

I stopped in this week to try the infamous french toast. The line was long, but it really didnt take long to get through it. The staff members meet you after you order to ensure that you have a place to sit. This was much appreciated as we had a party of 5. The food and cocktails we ordered were fantastic. The french toast certainly lived up to the hype. Cant wait to come back! read more
