Sofia Italian Restaurant Miami

It is a great little Italian restaurant in the middle of the designer district. Most of the people hang out in the outdoor space rather than the inside. It is a good stop when you get hungry and thirsty from shopping. It is way overpriced, but so is everything else around it 😂 But the quality of the food is impeccable, it has been a while since I got a full gluten pizza with the perfect crust and chew.

This is one of my absolute favorite places in Miami. It’s a rare restaurant that does an exceptional job with every component of the overall experience. I’ve been in twice to eat & drink, and sat at the bar both times, where Alonzo and Alessio were fantastic in their attentiveness & interactions. The food is excellent - scallop crudo is unreal, and among the best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had - w/ the pesto *chef’s kiss*. The atmosphere is very ‘refined Miami’ in the best way. Additionally, Gary swung by to say hello and was very welcoming.
