Loved the atmosphere inside with an elegant bar upon walking in. We ended up having a larger group so had to sit outside on a very hot day so was a little sad to miss out on the ambiance inside but the patio was so cute! I had the espresso martini and the brown butter old fashioned and both were delicious! The hosts were very nice to accommodate our fluctuating group size and my scallops were cooked very nicely. Would definitely go back!
Favorite place for brunch!! $35 bottomless and it includes espresso martinis, mimosas, or a seasonal cocktail is amazing because you don't have to stick to one drink the whole time. Servers were a 10/10 helping us enjoy our experience for our friend's bday. Love the breakfast croissant sandwich. The vibes in the big room with curtains are amazing for a large group
Jonathan our server made the night! Food was delicious from steaks to apps and especially the chimichurri sauce - but Jonathan was the highlight. Come for the food, stay for the Jonathan. Thank you for a wonderful night entertaining clients.
My partner made this reservation to celebrate my birthday! We are big steak people so we are always excited to try a new steak restaurant. Sophia did not disappoint! Ambiance and decor is top notch! This is SUCH a pretty spot! Very IG-worthy, with different details and moods on different walls. The bar was especially stunning. Service was impeccable. From the minute we walked in, the host and manager were friendly and personable. Our server was the right amount of conversational to make it feel personal but not overwhelmingly so. He was also very knowledgeable about the menu and had great recs. When I asked about "Sophia style" he had great descriptions and recommended it as his personal go-to. The bus staff was also incredibly attentive and wiped down the table between courses (a detail of fine dining that I think makes a huge difference!) Now the FOOD! Wow the truffle fries were some of the best fries I've ever had in my life. Weird item to lock in on, I know, but a good fry tells you everything else will be amazing too. It was crispy on the outside and the perfect pillowy texture on the inside. The steaks and bacon were incredible. It was cooked exactly as I like (I like mine medium well and run into a lot of places undercooking it. I know, it's unpopular but I am also paying for what I want. So I appreciate the perfection from Sophia on this one!) and I really enjoyed it Sophia Style. I love that all steaks already come with the house steak sauce and steak salt at bare minimum. The chocolate cake was AMAZING. it's gigantic, they literally served it with a steak knife lol. It's hazelnut and chocolate so it has a very rich deep flavor. They brought it out with a candle for my birthday which was a nice touch! Sophia Steak made my birthday dinner feel very special and we cannot recommend it enough for your special occasion!
One of my sisters took me here for my birthday dinner. The service was A1! Very customer oriented and service was excellent. They kept the table clean, the water coming and always checked on us. We had the Rockefeller oysters, the scallops and potatoes, ribeye and filet mignon, brussels sprouts, meatballs, crab cake, truffle potatoes and birthday dessert. All were excellent but my favorites are the oysters, scallops and filet mignon. The meatballs were OK, nothing special and the brussels sprouts was OK as well. They have a great collection of cocktails and can make some off menu if you ask. They give you a welcome glass of champagne when you come in; the champagne is actually really delicious. Even though we came early in the evening, the place filled up quickly but was still comfortable and not really noisy. It's a beautiful restaurant; dark romantic and modern. I'll definitely be back for another birthday, girls night, or date. This place is expensive but it is worth an evening of being catered to with delicious food. They also printed menus with your name depending on the occasion and that's a nice sweet touch.
Came here Sunday night at 5 for a date! I was not feeling too great and the two gorgeous gals at the host desk went above and beyond trying to help!!!! Angels truly! I am still thinking about their kindness they really blew me away ! I always have great service and food at Sophia and yesterday was no different !
Sophia Steak is an upscale spot with a great vibe and truly patient attentive service. Even when it was busy we never felt rushed. The standout was the Potatoes and Caviar dish which is basically fancy tater tot style croquettes filled with raclette and topped with crème fraîche and Osetra caviar. Flavor wise it was absolutely amazing rich salty and addictive. The only issue was texture, the croquettes were a little mushy instead of crisp which knocked it down slightly. Still a great overall experience and I would definitely come back.
I had heard so much about Sophia Steak, so my expectations were high--but unfortunately, the experience fell short. The dining room felt very cramped and uncomfortably warm, even though we were not a large party. It took away from what should have been an enjoyable night out. The drinks were decent, and the crudo was easily my favorite dish of the night. Outside of that, the food was just okay and didn't justify the hype or the price point. For a steakhouse, I expected much more. The standout of the evening was the staff. Service was fast, attentive, and genuinely great from start to finish. They did everything right and were clearly well-trained. The decor is sexy and chic, which initially draws you in, but the layout and subpar food make the experience disappointing overall. One major downside: the restroom is up three flights of stairs, and the elevator wasn't turned on, which is extremely inconvenient and not very accessible. I'd consider coming back for drinks only, but beyond that, I don't see a reason to return. Style alone can't make up for an uncomfortable space and mediocre food.
the space is beautiful. our server was perfect. the apps (tuna tartar & lobster/shishito frito)z, drinks and steak were delicious. the chocolate cake was the best steak house dessert i've had in years! the sides were mid, but i would def go back again.
RW Review Located in River North (Downtown Chicago), street parking can be scarce so def look into SpotHero if you can't find a spot. SIL managed to snag a reservation for restaurant week Monday night dinner $60 pp. We really tried to order different things from each other to try a variety. First Course: Appetizers - Hamachi Crudo: Just ok, didn't wow me as much as the other dishes - Shrimp Scampi: This dish was amazing. Nothing small about these shrimps, they were humongous! Second Course: Entree We both opt in for steak! - Flat Iron 'Sophia Steak': Mine was crusted to perfection and I've never experienced a steak like that. Could use a tad little more seasoning but overall pretty good. Was so full could not finish it so I brought it home for my husband and he was pretty impressed. Stated some of the better steaks he'd had. SIL said hers was too peppery though. Third Course: Dessert - Sticky Toffee Banana Bread: Enjoyed the warmness of the banana bread but could have used more toffee and stickiness for me - Malted Milk Chocolate Sundae: Pretty ok & could also use more malted chocolate balls for me too Extras: - Truffle Parm Fries: SO GOOD I couldn't stop picking at it & that's what got me so full - Creamed Spinach: Def skip. I was expecting for the spinach pieces to still be intact but seems that it was chopped along the way Drinks: - Easy Breezy Beautiful Erratic: I really enjoyed this drink a lot. - Passion at the disco (non-alcoholic): Super tasty and my SIL enjoyed it All in all really enjoy my visit here and the service was impeccable. Our server was such a sweet lady and made sure we were take care of. Def will be back & already booked a table for next month!
Came here with a group of girlfriends for restaurant week, and we had a blast! The ambiance in here is great, the bar is adorned with this almost cloud-like design all along the top, and the art in the place is super interesting to immerse yourself in. To start- they personalized our menus which we LOVED. Such a fun and unique touch To drink, I had the Hot To Go which was a fun take on a spicy marg with mezcal. Loved this drink but would have loved it even more if it was tajin instead of a salt rim. Our group also ordered a few bottles of wine which I enjoyed too! To eat some of us decided to go with the Restaurant Week menu! I had the Hamachi Crudo, the Flat Iron 'Sophia Style' steak, some sides including Brussels and Bacon, the Truffle-Parm Fries, and the White Cheddar Gratin, and the Peanut Butter Cream Pie for dessert (they were out of the bread pudding). The food was excellent! We could not stop talking about the pb pie.. so so good! Overall we loved our meal (and our waiter, shout out to Brenton) so much that while we were sitting at dinner, we planned a brunch for the end of the month! Can't wait to come back and try this brunch menu (how could we say no to bottomless?!)!
Dinner here is effortlessly cute, Sophia's is heavy on the caviar and I'm absolutely here for it. I started with the Dry Decision cocktail, subbing in Hendrick's and blue cheese olives, which arrived accompanied by a caviar chip. The potatoes and caviar delivered a full, robust flavor profile without being overpowering. Pro tip: the lemon wedge is mandatory on the second bite, it brightens everything beautifully. For mains, the ribeye cooked medium+ was spot on, especially with the added chimichurri (a worthy upgrade). The creamed spinach was a favorite. The salmon, however, I could've done without, it didn't quite hold its own next to the rest of the table. We closed the night with the sticky toffee bread pudding. It didn't soar as high as expected, but it was still a warm, satisfying finish. There were a few additional items on the menu that caught my eye, so I look forward to returning. Overall: a chic, steakhouse with moody vibes and solid execution. Ideal for a dinner when the energy matters just as much as the food. Note: Table seating is fairly close so conversations tend to be communal rather than confidential. Also, a 20% automatic gratuity will be added.
Do I start with the ambiance or the service? That's always the dilemma. What hits you first is the beautiful décor, especially during the holidays. The light-filled entrance is festive and welcoming, and the bar (front and center as you walk in) is tastefully designed with warm, intimate tones. The bartender/server was informative, friendly, and refreshingly knew the dinner menu inside and out. Happy Hour is a great way to sample a few select appetizers and ease into the experience. The coconut shrimp is "expected, but the shrimp was tender! The potato croquettes were very tasty and hit the spot, along with the mildly spicy Nashville Chicken bites. This was a great start to the dining experience. Service across the board was impressive. From the host to the barback, runners, and management, everyone was attentive and on top of things. Tables were wiped clean between courses, and both the server and manager checked in just enough to feel cared for, not crowded. Now for the food... The au gratin potatoes were outstanding, and the Brussels sprouts are truly hard to beat. I loved the flavor of my ribeye, especially paired with the béarnaise sauce. The mushrooms were fine, nothing remarkable. But honestly, I just like mushrooms with my steak, so they did their job. Dessert sealed the deal. The chocolate ganache cake with hazelnut crunch was deeeeelicous. A little whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream might have taken it over the top, but I have zero complaints. And when I followed it with the Malted Milk Chocolate Sundae? Absolute perfection. This spot has officially landed on my updated list of Chicago favorites. I used to love Benny's Chophouse before it closed, and this restaurant has more than earned its place. I'll definitely be back.
Our absolute favorite anniversary and special occasion spot! Sophia Steak never misses. The food, service, and atmosphere are consistently top-notch. They even print personalized menus with your names for special occasions to take home as a keepsake, which is such a thoughtful touch. The crab cake is a must-order every single time. It is packed with real, sweet lump crab meat without all the heavy breading and flour filler you usually find elsewhere. The calamari appetizer was decent, though compared to the rest of the meal, it was slightly less memorable. For the entrees, the scallops were cooked to perfection with a rich, buttery, melt in your mouth texture. The roasted chicken was also incredible, super juicy and tender on the inside with perfectly crispy, seasoned skin. Since we were celebrating a birthday, they even surprised us with a complimentary dessert to finish the night. Everything was truly flawless from start to finish. Highly recommend for any date night or celebration! read more

Wow! The service the ambience and the food were all 10/10. If the weather is nice I recommend you making a reservation outside. Trust me. Don't get me wrong inside is very intimate, but outside just feels more luxury. For starters we did tuna tartare and oysters . The tuna tartare I have to rave about because it was literally the best tuna tartare I've had in a while. For dinner I went with the Tomahawk steak, juicy and made to the most tender perfection. I can appreciate a good steak. We ended dinner with something sweet and chose the chocolate cake . Yum ! Try it . Service was outstanding and everyone was super attentive . I will definitely be back . read more
Sophia Steak - Chicago is an absolute vibe and I plan to make this my go to brunch spot. I'm shocked that I haven't heard of Sophia Steak prior to my visit because I consider myself a brunch connoisseur! The decor inside of Sophia Steak is breathtaking. They have fabric draped throughout the restaurant, beautifully hung photos, and a lot of beautiful lighting. Not only is the inside beautiful, their outdoor sitting area is beautiful. I was thoroughly impressed! The biggest draw to Sophia Steak is their brunch premium bottomless drink option. They give you 90 minutes and it's not just limited to mimosas. The cocktails were well made and we didn't have to wait long. The fact they offer espresso martinis as an option makes this a must visit place. During my visit I ordered the grilled Forza burger. It was unbelievable! The burger was a decent size, I easily got two meals from my dish. All of the dishes that came out looked delicious! I'm already trying to plan another brunch at Sophia Steak! read more
Went here for my wife's work dinner with her colleagues. There were 10 of us and we had a private room, which worked out well. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I ordered a cocktail to start and was very happy with it. A take on a Manhattan and was well done. We split the wagyu beef carpaccio which- WOW. It was incredible!! We also shared the 10-oz filet and the broccoli side. Was the right amount of food! All in all had a great time and would return! read more

Came here a few weeks ago for restaurant week. Very crowded, sat 30 minutes late, and felt rushed. We inquired about the 90 minute bottomless and was talked out of it by the waiter as he basically told us we wouldn't have enough time or we can try next time. We were shocked! Food was just ok and cinnamon roll was dry. Cute atmosphere but won't be back. read more
If you want a restaurant that makes you feel like royalty on your birthday - COME TO SOPHIA STEAK. I was welcomed with a custom printed menu that said "Happy Birthday, Ciara!", as well as a free round of champagne for my table, and a free dessert with a candle. The service was quick and very attentive. The ambiance was dark and romantic (with a balance of perfect lighting to set the mood but still allowed the menu to be readable). The food was delicious. I got the French dip, which was a little on the drier side, but all of our sides like the fries, whipped potatoes, and Brussels sprouts with bacon were all super yummy. We had the absolute best time here. Left with full stomachs and big smiles! read more
Sophia's steak is a great restaurant. The staff is very friendly and attentive and pleasant giving advice on different flavors. The food is really really good. I had the turkey club this time and an espresso martini. The vibe can be date night dinner with family or friends girls night out it really does check all the boxes as the ambience is so welcoming. Be advised the bathroom is upstairs and they do have valet parking and parking around the building that is paid parking. There's also a Whole Foods parking garage upstairs do that at your own risk but definitely go and enjoy yourself. read more

Celebrated a friend's birthday at Sophia Steakhouse and they went above and beyond to make it special. The staff created a personalized menu with her name on it, surprised us with champagne, and brought out a birthday dessert. The service was exceptional, attentive without being overbearing. I ordered the French dip sandwich and it was delicious, perfectly cooked meat with rich, flavorful au jus. The ambiance was sophisticated and intimate, especially when they dimmed the lights during our meal, which created the perfect celebratory atmosphere. Highly recommend for special occasions or any time you want excellent food and service. read more

Svc and waiter was wonderful. The problem was our oversized group. I really can't wait to come back as an adult. Not an ideal place for teenagers. Some things on the menu were off but have a big party I think we tossed them off. I love the brand and the concept of this place. More for romantic two person dinner night. read more
I visited for Monday night happy hour. Everything is $10. The daily special was steak frites; it comes with fries. The have a Sophia Mini menu for children, always a nice tough. My child order the spaghetti and meatballs, hold the spaghetti sauce and meatballs (ha!). They brought her a nice butter Parmesan pasta with broccoli on the side. Very nice touch for this mama! I had the "Easy, Breezy, Beautiful, Erratic" drink from the cocktail menu - careful, it's so good you'll drink a lot before realizing it's alcohol! I switched up and had a classic espresso martini to finish. My sister had the "Hot To Go", a smoky margarita type drink. All of the drinks were so good! I look forward to exploring more of the daily specials here. read more
Came into town for a bears game & wanted to do a nice steakhouse. Glad we chose Sophia's, our waiter was amazing, very attentive and personable. The inside is moody and dark and we loved the ambiance and vibes right when you walk in. We started out with the shrimp cocktail, not a lot of shrimp but the quality is amazing. Also got the rolls and they were so good we almost ordered another round. Me & my fiancé shared a steak and sides. Everything was delicious. Ended with the peanut butter pie and I'm still thinking about it the roasted peanuts on top were a great touch! Will come back next time we visit Chicago! read more
I celebrated my birthday at Sophia Steak this year- and it was a solid meal. My wife is a vegetarian- so she had the salad and rice which were good. One star for the vegetarian. I was very surprised by the kids menu and happy they included a green vegetable- a good balance for the kiddos. Two stars for the kids menu. The drinks were on point, fries were on point, but the steak and crudo were just okay. Minus one star. Service and ambiance were amazing brining them up to solid 4 stars. read more
Great vibes here! We had planned to just get a drink, but decided to get dinner as well. The steak was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The mashed potatoes are absolutely loaded with butter and smoother than anything! Bar service was a little slow as it was a busy Friday, but good nonetheless read more

I'm giving the place a 2 stars for the server n the deceiving check The restaurant is beautiful n has a nice vibe We went to a show in the area n thought we would come here to celebrate an early birthday Hosts n manager n runners were very attentive n friendly Our server however was like either he didn't want to be there or he didn't want us to be there Given an upscale restaurant as such, we didn't even get his name That's one star out Next to the check We had order a bread pudding for our birthday with candle, we knew that's what we wanted as most restaurants these days only give you a free ice cream They sent us a "complimentary" ice cream dessert that's $14 on the check that they discounted There's an auto gratuity of 20% for dinner for 2 on the amount before discount That means we paid/tipped $2.80 for a dessert that we didn't ask for That's deceiving To add to that, I almost tipped on top of the tip included check, the server didn't say a word that tip is included And, there's a 3% service charge For that, 2 stars out Food was good, the experience was ehhh I wouldn't come back, there's lots more places to try read more

Arrived for brunch on October 11th and had a great time with friends. We did the premium bottomless brunch + entrees and even though they were a bit busy, the staff as a whole took really good care of us. Would definetly go come back. All the food we ordered was delicious, specifically the skirt steak which was cooked to perfection. We also ordered the cinnamon roll flight was also delicious! read more

This place was so beautiful and really instagram worthy. I told them it was my birthday and they printed a birthday message for me on the top of our menus, which was a nice touch. We ordered dessert and I saw other people around us have a cute little dessert with sparklers, but they didn't do that for us. Wondering if it's because we ordered our own desserts. The steak and gratin were delicious. Highly recommend. read more
