Best Date Night Restaurants in University City

I cannot remember the lady manager working on 12/23 at 4:30, but absolutely amazing. She was exceptional and very attentive to the patrons of the restaurant. Inessa and the server assistant were phenomenal. It was my first time visiting but I will definitely be back because their customer service was excellent!!!

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. I felt like I was back in California. We ordered the burrata and harissa shrimp for appetizers. Both were fantastic. For our main lunch courses, we got the BLT and pork chop dishes. The pork chop had a ton of flavor and was perfectly cooked. The BLT was great but def too much bread after eating so much with the shrimp and burrata apps. Server was nice but definitely laid back and slow and didn’t check to see how the food was. The ambience and food made up for it though. Highly recommend. Def one of my new fav spots in Charlotte!

The food was amazing!! I had the fried chicken with gravy, collard greens, and yams! 10/10

We were a little stressed about the parking situation so when we inquired with the staff at the lobby they offered complimentary valet for up to 3 hrs which was a relief with a toddler. Our food was very tasty and better than I anticipated from the Google reviews - you deserve much higher. We will definitely return the next time we're in the area.

The sports tv sets DEFINITELY lower the experience in Sophia’s l. Highly recommend the tvs be put into a smaller, less conspicuous area for those who, heaven forbid, absolutely cannot enjoy an evening without staring at a tv screen. Sophia’s can elevate itself away from the lowered quality of Sports Bar by putting the tv reception in a small discrete area.
