My husband & I went to Sofia's for a supper for Valentine's Day. Let me start off by saying the online reservations was bogus. When we reserved for our dinner which we got by chance every other time was booked. We got our reservation for 5pm. When we got there the restaurant was pretty dead. There must of been only 15 people inside by 5:30 which didn't make sense according to the online reservations which were all booked.
The food was okay nothing special. I had the chicken parmigiana & my husband had the veal scalopini & we ordered the Americana pizza as an appetizer. The service was good. The atmosphere was bland.
Service was absolute garbage. I wish i read the reviews before entering because this is seems to be a common theme. Waitress was normal at first but when we requested to get pasta without meat or cooking wine, the attitude switched.
I ordered the margherita pizza (basically vegetarian) & the busboy brought us a different pizza saying'this has pork by the way'. & we informed him that it was the wrong order.
They took it back & brought us back our pizza. It was delicious but the whole experience was soured after we waited $40 minutes for our truffle fries. we told two different staff & finally decided to cancel it. We informed our waitress, asked for the bill & she was NOT happy about it.
Proceeded to wait for the bill for 20 minutes, until she came & told us that the machine wasn't working. She started saying that it would need 10-15 minutes to restart, & if we had anything to do for that time. She offered for us to pay cash or e transfer. We told her we will just pay cash & she kept pushing for us to pay by e transfer. Finally, she combined our order, gave us the receipt. She left again 5 minutes, while we waited to pay. Then when she came, we handed her the money & walked away. She was bothered & stared at us intensely as we left.
We just came back from Sofia & all we have to say is the service was excellent, food was excellent. My husband & I shared salmon tartare, oysters & we each had a pizza. Portions were a good size & it was soooooo delicious. Yes, it was a Tuesday night & our reservation was at 5 pm so yes it was calm. Our waitress Elsy was #1 the whole time & the busboy Mateo was charming too. Around 7ish, more people came & service was still very good. We are definitely coming back. Oh & my negroni was fantastic! Highlight of the night: that mini bottle of Tabasco was so cute!!!
We don't understand the negative comments about the restaurant. It's 2026, let's not be a Karen or a Kevin anymore please! Yes it was a bit pricey but the quality of our meals matched what we paid for. If you find it too pricey, stay home & let others enjoy the restaurant.

La meilleure pizza en ville !
Service personnalisé & attentionné. La nourriture est authentique, savoureuse & toujours fraîche un vrai coup de coeur pour la pizza & les saveurs typiquement italiennes.
Je recommande à 100 %.
Excellente expérience à la Pizzéria Sofia Laval! 🍕
L'ambiance était parfaite & la nourriture tout simplement délicieuse. J'ai pris la pizza, un vrai délice.
Le service était impeccable, les serveuses sont non seulement magnifiques, mais aussi très courtoises & professionnelles.
Je recommande sans hésiter'hands down'
2 pizzas + 1 verre de vin = 90$ avec pourboire 15%. 2-3 employés sont venus nous voir, mais jamais venus nous verser de l'eau. (1x avant d'avoir les plats) Pizza bonne & bonne grosseur
Machine TPV commence à 18% & + pour le pourboire… faut pas exagérer tout de même! J'ai changé le (%) à 15%.
Tout le contraire de Roxanne Latulippe. Attention au stationnement, on vous dit que c'est gratuit & de valider votre billet avec le terminal à la fin du repas. Mais on ne vous dit pas que c'est pour deux heures & puis quand tu viens pour sortir la barrière n'ouvre pas. Tu dois payer, tu rentres te faire rembourser & on te dit que c'est pour deux heures. Je ne connais à Laval aucun resto où on doit payer pour stationner…
Service bien ordinaire, pas le sentiment d'être important. Groupe de 16 pour célébrer un anniversaire. Restaurant presque vide à 18h30. Aucune explication ou suggestion de notre serveuse. Service lent.
Il y a tant de choix de resto possible, svp occuper vous de votre groupe expliquer le menu, bienvenue chez Sofia est ce votre première visite ?
Aucune chance que j'y retourne il y a tant de resto pourquoi irais-je dans un resto ou c'est relativement cher & où le service est plus qu'ordinaire. J'oubliais ma pizza sauce blanche était sans intérêt, mais de belle portion. Mon vin lui excellent pour la bouteille la moins dispendieuse à 55$.
L'unique positif est l'esthétique & le confort au resto.
We had an anniversary dinner for twelve. I had read the reviews & was worried before getting there. However I had no complaints about the service. The service for our table was great. The restaurant was not completely full though. The food was good & everyone enjoyed their meals. The pizza is not a Neapolitan pizza. It is Roman style pizza. so thin pizza all around. Our whole party had fun & did not have complaints. The only reason I put 4 stars for atmosphere is that the music was a tad loud. not so loud that we could not hear ourselves but still slightly loud. otherwise everything was good.
