    My wife, son and I visited Sofia for our 4th wedding anniversary. We wanted to pick a spot close to our home and decided that Sofia had won first place in the plethora of choices that we had to pick from. Right from being greeted at the hostess desk to being seated at our table in a corner by a window, everything was very smooth in its operation. A huge shoutout to FABIAN, who took such great care of us for the entirety of our evening. Fabian was extremely gracious, polite, well informed and had a sense of urgency when it came to our little 2 year old bundle of joy. Now let's talk food; we started with the hiramasa, carpaccio di manzo and the olive ascolane. Both crudos and the antipasti were outstanding. But for me the hiramasa took the cake. For mains we chose the 8oz filet and the 16oz ribeye alongiwth some sides from their newly launched sides selection. The broccolini with the lemon aioli was a great fresh way to serve it up rather than the run of the mill charred broccoli. The potato crocccante with the taleggio fonduta was a fresh way to showcase a potato side with a steak dinner. The pave was well compressed, fried well and served hot. The eggplant parmesan although good still can be better on flavor profile but nonetheless it was good. We finished off with a fantastic coconut cake with caramel sauce and banana center and to was it all down a doppio espresso and grappa sealed the deal. Keep it up Sofia. We will surely return

    Another fantastic dinner at Amal, as always! The food is spectacular, especially the delicious dips and fresh bread. What really makes the experience exceptional is the hospitality, particularly our server, Mo. I always ask to sit in his section because he is simply as good as it gets. Attentive, personable and genuinely welcoming. He elevates an already wonderful dining experience. Always a pleasure to return!
