Stopped in for dinner and as always was a great experience. This is a upscale casual establishment. The food is always very good. Had a fantastic burger that was loaded with all the goodies. Had Stephanie as my server and she was terrific which made the meal even better. If you haven't tried this place you are missing out. By the way their Happy Hour is very good also. read more

I recently brought a very special guest to Sophia's for their first visit, and from start to finish, the experience exceeded every expectation. We were greeted warmly upon arrival and swiftly escorted to our table, which offered a lovely view of the bar area and a musician playing genuinely cool, soulful music. The energy in the room was vibrant, welcoming, and effortlessly chic -- the kind of atmosphere that immediately lets you know you're somewhere special. Our server, Lizzie, was an absolute standout. She was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable, with such a bright and genuine spirit. Her guidance through the menu was thoughtful and spot-on, and she truly elevated the entire dining experience. We began with the specialty oysters and the tuna poke. The tuna was clearly sushi-grade and incredibly fresh, served with house-made wonton chips that were nothing short of outstanding. The oysters were beautifully presented and came with a phenomenal variety of accompaniments that complemented them perfectly. For entrées, we chose the sweet potato-crusted grouper with truffle fries and plantains, as well as the crusted snapper served with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Both dishes were expertly prepared, flavorful, and beautifully plated. I must also note that the portion size of the fresh Florida fish was incredibly generous -- easily enough to feed two people, which was a wonderful surprise and tremendous value. We also requested a customized margarita, and the bartender nailed it -- perfectly balanced and exactly what we had in mind. From the ambiance to the service, cocktails, and exceptional food, Sophia's delivered a truly memorable dining experience. We left impressed, happy, and already planning our return. This is a gem in Hobe Sound, and we will absolutely be back. read more

Absolutely loved this little gem of a place in Hobe Sound. Tiki hut vibes, excellent service by both the bartenders and wait staff once we sat down to eat. Food was delicious. My husband loved the pork chop and I had one of the specials which was excellent. Dog friendly outside and an awesome solo singer the entire time. Will absolutely come again. What a nice addition to the Hobe Sound area. read more

First time here ( we leave 30 minutes south) but we were very pleased with our dinner. My fish sandwich was great, and hubby ordered the pork chop that was really good. Service was excellent. Live music at the patio. Next time we are in town we will definitely go back. read more

I went to Sophia's in Hobe Sound and it was absolutely delicious. Their happy hour is a great deal. It's $12 flatbreads and appetizers and nicely priced drinks. So fun for a girls happy hour to sit inside or outside. 10/10 recommend you go! read more

The only thing better than the food is the service. One of our go to. Love it!!! E we travel from Jensen Beach to Stuart because we love it at Sophia's read more

Food was plentiful & very tasty. We both had leftovers to take home for another meal. Ambience was great. Indoor and outdoor seating. Staff were very friendly & helpful. We will be back! We did lunch on a cold rainy Saturday so got comfort pasta dishes. Also wanted to try an appetizer so got the calamari. All our food was very good though my chicken was a bit tough (hard to find really tender moist chicken anywhere). My husband loves oranges & orange juice. They have an orange cake that we got as a takeout but he tried before we left. Excellent!! read more

I heard this restaurant just opened in September 2024 and it is so important to support local restaurants. This is definitely one of them and my new favorite spot when visiting Hobe Sound. Sophia's is a hidden gem with a really nice outside dining area and bar. The waitstaff was very attentive, the customers were very nice and the happy hour during the week from 3-6pm was fantastic! The bartender even offered to make a mango martini with a hint of lime that was not on the menu. That was delicious too! The flatbread appetizer with filet mignon and Gorgonzola was amazing! It was so delicious that I went back again a couple days later for happy hour again (but this time it was slightly overcooked). The calamari with red peppers appetizer was good but had a kick to it if you like it spicy. The filet mignon sliders were delicious too. If you have not been here yet, it's definitely a must visit whether you are local or out of town. The outdoor area is highly recommended! I will definitely be back next time I am in the area. read more

Wow, wow, wow !!! I wanted a restaurant between Jupiter and Port St Lucie to meet friends and I discovered Sophia's and it turned out better than I expected. Hidden in Hobe Sound is this Gem! Once we parked we could see a nice outdoor area. We went inside to the hostess and were warmly greeted. We were led outside to a nicely decorated outdoor space with a full bar and multiple seating areas. The server was extremely attentive and helpful with a wonderfully friendly attitude. Shrimp Cocktail was typical, the Wedge Salad was extremely nicely plated and the Ahi Tuna Poke Platter was super, large portion and very tasty. Surf and Turf had a nice size Lobster Tail and perfectly cooked filet. The Center Cut Filet Mignon also was great. Nice side dishes, as well. I will be going back and I highly recommend. Thanks for making me look good to my friends! read more

I wanted to specifically write a review for Sophia's. Shane at the bar out back is 10/10. Me & my boyfriend went for happy hour last night. It was busy, a full bar. Shane had great recommendations for food & made his drinks even better. I appreciated his positive attitude despite his full bar. To me the bartender also sets the vibes. You can definitely tell Shane loves what he does!! Will definitely be back & we hope to see Shane!! read more

Amazing! Everything we tried was delicious and it was a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend.

The service, food, atmosphere was all good. Brandon was our waiter, and we couldn't have asked for a more professional service. This seems like a good place for a date, it also just a night out to eat and socialize. read more

Sophia's - Orangecicle Cake - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Hobe Sound, Florida

Service was good. Great selection of ambiance. Outdoor tiki lights, music lively crowd. Indoor seating, a bit tamer. Bar area with high tops. Food was a disappointment. I had to search for the cobia in my cerviche. Even then it was bland (not talking about hot sauce.) Steak and Gorgonzola salad, sad to look at. Lots of lettuce. Two small medallions Of steak, Cooked nicely, but unnecessarily heavy on spice. Crab cake was ok. Nothing special. The dressing was a little spicy. Plantains were excellent. Wine list was terrible. Poor selection of whites. Settled for Rose which was undrinkable. Not sure what it really was. Sad to have one of the few restaurants in the area off our list. read more

Excellent service excellent food I highly recommend you experience amazing restaurant

Love love love Sophia's, and so happy that it is in Hobe Sound- GREAT happy hour with excellent appetizers for wonderful prices.

WOW!!!! A friend recommended and I headed straight here. Such a cool vibe with upscale gastropub type menu, chill outdoor space with bar and live music, and best of all delicious food that's reasonably priced!! The hostesses were INCREDIBLY friendly and efficient. Waitress was a delight. We will be BACK! Lobster crab bisque was a succulent well-crafted soup. The brisket jalapeño sausage were sooo tasty! Smash burger perfectly caramelized edges with cheese dripping. YESSSSS read more

Everything. The most inconsistent restaurant I've ever been to. Moved to HB 1 year and 1/2 ago. Wanted to love it. Adorable setting. Service is consistently horrible. A bunch of kids on their phones in kitchen entrance...,they consistently forget appetizers l... multiple times exact thing happens. The service and food us a 2 star at best. Very sad. Wanted to love it and gave it multiple times. The waitress was the bartender tonight . Zero interaction .. no smile. No follow up on the drinks. Amazing that she has this position and slightly understated working both but it was not even close to crowded. Suggestion...Go for drinks and apps. Don't waste your time on dinner if you want service for the $$ you'll spend read more

Waitress was wonderful and food was very good! Lovely outside patio with heaters for dinner.

Excellent food, service, and ambience! We will definitely be back for round two! We had the grouper, burger, goat cheese salad, wings, and pasta and every dish was amazing!! read more

So happy to see a new spot open in Hobe Sound. The place was super cozy and the food was outstanding. Everything was fresh and delicious. Our server Jessica was well versed on the menu and extremely sweet and professional. Highly recommend. Thank you read more

Although we had heard only lukewarm reviews about Sophia we gave it a try ourselves tonight. The outdoor atmosphere is fun, with a nice bar and live entertainment. However the service this evening was pretty much the worse we've experienced anywhere. We had to call our waitress over to take our order. Once that was done she never returned to our table. A runner brought the food. . .reaching across the table rather than walking around to place the plates. No one ever checked on us. If someone had we would have told them that the lobster and crab bisque was barely lukewarm, the tuna poke didn't have most of the ingredients listed on the menu and that we would all like a refill on our drinks. We, of course, had to flag the waitress down for the check and again to take the payments. Unfortunately we will not be coming back. read more

Food very good. Atmosphere on patio, just right-charming! Res highly recommended. Town of Hobe Sound is a small,, relatively quiet corner of beach towns. read more

We went here on spur of the moment to celebrate my wife's birthday. I won't mention which one. I rated our experience a 5, only because there is no 4 3/4 star. We sat on the patio. It was very pleasant and comfortable and warmer than inside. There was a musician playing near our table. The background music was pleasant, not intrusive. Our server was Lyla. She was terrific. Nothing more need be said. My wife has a peculiar food allergy - asparagus. Lyla brought this to the attention of the manager, Riley, and he made it a point to come to our table to discuss it with her and to make sure the filet she ordered was not exposed to any grilled asparagus. Thought this was really classy. We started with small caesar salads. They were good - not overdressed. We would have preferred the use of more romaine heart in the mix rather than the dark leafy greens. She ordered the filet, medium rare; I ordered te ribeye on the rare side. Both steaks came as ordered. Suggestion- order the steaks cooked to a lower temp than you plan to eat them, as they will continue to cook after they get to your table. Her filet was very good, but the last several pieces were medium, not medium rare. She had the broccoli; I had the plantains. Both were very good. We both ordered the mashed potatoes. We both left the mashed potatoes which are made with a cream cheese blend behind. Sorry Riley, no offense intended - just not our concept of mashed potatoes. We finished with a slice of decadent orange sunshine cake. Delicious with enough calories to feed a professional football team. Overall, a really nice dining experience. We will return. read more

Great spot for happy hour and dinner. Loved the service, vibes, and food selection!! Very accommodating for gluten free (not sure about cross contamination though). I got the sweet potato grouper and it was amazing!! The happy hour deals are worth it too- great selection of cocktails, wine, etc. Seems to be the place to be in town, would go back!! :) read more

Great service. Food was amazing and ambiance was high quality and relaxing. We will be coming back.

Wonderful food, service, and atmosphere! So happy to have this new addition to Hobe sound!

Lovely new spot in Hobe Sound. Great happy hour specials. Friendly wait staff, although bus boys were non-existent. The key lime cheesecake is to die for! Was celebrating a birthday and they even came out to sing. read more

We went for our 56th anniversary, the place was empty at 4:10 pm on a Saturday. Wait staff was attentive and we ordered . Calamari was delightful , Seared Scallops , 5 of them , pricey at 40 bucks, was over cooked and chewy. With a glass of house wine and tip 150 dollar. I think at that price we expected better ambience and food. read more

The food was great. There was live music. Drinks were excellent. Our server (Bradley) was awesome! Loved all of it. We got the coconut shrimp, the sweet potato crusted grouper and the yellowtail snapper. All was really good. read more

Everything is really good. The steaks are probably my favorite, I've tried all of them. I'd have to recommend the ribeye. The fish is great as well, no fishy taste at all. The plantains with the pina colada sauce are out of this world. Bussin bussin Great atmosphere, nice outside seating with fans, a south florida staple. read more
