Reviews for Sophia's Grotto in Roslindale, MA
The food was outstanding!!!!!!! I ordered the Sirloin steak, and it was awesome! The place is very hidden in a alley. The inside... is small, but it wasn’t crowded at all. I accidentally ate some of the steak before I took a photo ????. Read more

A beautiful environment with bad food. Pasta dishes had a burnt taste because they used fried union in them, but burnt them... badly. Also dishes were extremely oily. Prices are much higher that what they should be and they are not authentic Italian. Soif you are looking for an expensive pile of oil in a nice environment visit this place. Read more
Incredible food (the sauces are exquisite ????????) and exceptional service. Family run restaurant with owner personally... checking on diners and helping staff in between friendly conversations with the regulars. Updated menu with simpler as well asmore dynamic options. Always has great wine. Love the ambiance and music which had some classic Italian songs but also moremodern/top hits. Indoor and outdoor/covered seating Read more
What a wonderful dining experience in the Roslindale neighborhood. Hidden in a cute alley, this is a charming Italian restaurant... that is sure to please. We sat outside under heat lamps on a chilly night, and were very comfortable. The staff was prompt,attentive and very efficient. Most importantly the food was outstanding. We loved the crostini apps, and the various pastaentrees and specials. Everything was cooked to perfection- which made for a great evening! Read more
We visited this restaurant about 1 month ago and it was a great experience. The food was all delicious and the staff was kind.... All the food came out in a reasonable amount of time and the presentation looked great! We ordered the an appetizer withtomatoes and cheese and it was such a fun surprise because it came with an ice-cream scoop size of fresh mozzarella. Theingredients were all very fresh to the point where they were either made in house or made locally. There are lots of differentflavor options for people so this restaurant is great for everyone. It is a very cozy environment and perfect for either a dateor for a family dinner. There are also lots of wine options to pair with your meal and enhance your experience. I woulddefinitely visit this restaurant again. Read more
Such a lovely place! I love that the outdoor seating is away from any active streets; it was a beautiful atmosphere and... delicious food! The portions were very generous, making the prices super reasonable. Highly recommend for a romantic Italiandinner date! Read more
Good atmosphere but poor service and just okay food. Incorrect drinks were brought to our table, waitress asked what we had... ordered multiple times, food took 1h and their pizza looked very sad (see below). Our small plates arrived after the pizza whichdefeated their purpose as appetizers. Read more
