   Sophie's was a fantastic location for an Easter dinner while traveling through Ireland. The views from the restaurant were lovely, the food superb, and the atmosphere outstanding. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5, was the service was a bit off. I would definitely visit Sophie's again when back in Galway.

   We had steak which was 39 euro that we couldn’t eat because of the fat

   We had a lovely day in Galway, ending with an excellent dinner at Sophie’s! Everything was delicious! Highly recommend the burrata bruschetta (although ours was missing the figs which we didn’t realize until we saw it delivered to the table next to us when we finished!). We enjoyed the braised beef and the sea bass, and the Irish coffee was wonderful! Our server was VERY attentive. Thanks!

   I had a great evening dining here with three friends. We were warmly welcomed by the host, Maria, and our server, Zuzana, was professional and attentive, regularly checking in on us throughout the meal. We ordered a mix of pizzas and the tempura prawns — everything was absolutely delicious, with the prawns perfectly crisp and the pizzas full of flavour. Great food, lovely service, and a relaxed atmosphere — we’ll definitely be back!
