Pizza was absolutely delicious and the customer service was great. Wings were yummy and their butter pasta was a hit with the kids.

Sofia's Pizzeria is one of those spots where pizza isn't just pizza--it's a decision…read more The crust? Just the right balance of crispy and soft. The toppings? Generous enough to make you feel like they actually care. And the flavor? Let's just say one slice turns into three real quick. It has that cozy, neighborhood feel where you can bring family, meet friends, or just show up hungry and leave happy. This is not the place for diet plans. This is the place for "I deserve this" energy--and honestly, sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Atmosphere is always relaxed. Green chile queso with chips or soft pretzels is always solid. Recommend the Brewhouse pizza as well because it's always good. No meat on it, but the artichoke, sun-dried tomato, and goat cheese all make it fantastic.

I was pleasantly surprised because in the pictures on Yelp I thought there were only picnic tables. But thats not the case, there are plenty of high top tables in there too. Really nice area for watching games while enjoying your craft beer. I ordered the brown ale and it was very good. I didn't order anything from the kitchen but the food coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. I will definitely be back, this place deserves some further investigation.

26 Jul 2023 We had…read moremade a reservation for 4pm, because it sounded like you needed a reservation. We got there at 3:50pm, walked in and no one was at the host station. There was a sign to seat yourselves. OK. We sat down and the bartender brought us menus. Us and a group of three were the only customers. Brought us waters. While looking at the menu, a server comes over and asks if we wanted appetizers or go straight to order. Straight to order, please. The husband ordered the brisket pot roast. It came with asparagus and what he thinks was puréed squash. I had the pecan chicken. Panko breaded with pecans and a bourbon sauce. Maple and bourbon were the flavor elements. Came with baked Mac and cheese and sliced slightly charred carrots. This was really good, as was the husbands plate. Warm Sourdough bread and butter is served with the meal. We split a Caesar salad. The salad was OK, the dressing was a little tart and served on the side. I'm taking a slice of chocolate cake to go. As I peek into the bag, it is a generous slice with strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Stay tuned. The restaurant is part of the Hillside Resort. Looks like a bunch of rooms. When we were about to leave a group of women came in and sat at the bar. I told the bartender we'd heard about them through Texas Eats. He said 'are they still showing that? That was about six chefs ago!' All righty then. I'd say it's worth a trip to try.

Reservations were made ahead of time for 4 and upon arrival we were were seated right next to the large open windows. Ordered the Berry Patch cocktail- nice and refreshing with a splash of mint leaves. Menu wasn't overwhelming and had a nice assortment of dishes. Starters ordered - pork belly bites and fried Brussels sprouts. Both highly recommend! Dishes ordered- salmon, pork chop, pot roast, and steak. Pork chop and steak were not dry, but juicy with lots of flavor. I loved pot roast growing up , so I had to order it here. Although tasty, texture was a little chewy and tough. Also would have enjoyed a little more helping of vegetable/potato purée underneath the roast. The salmon dish looked fabulous, but was slightly salty. The sweet bun that accompanied each dish were delicious! Service was good. I'd come back to try the pork chop next time around.

In Castroville, one of the places I visit most has to be Magnolia Filling Station, the only true…read morecoffee shop in town. It's small, always busy, and always slinging quality coffee. The shop is made from an old gas station that was converted into a cafe. They serve pastries along with a wide range of coffee beverages. I always find myself drawn to their seasonal drinks, which are usually themed around something fun. This year's holiday menu was Ice Age themed, but I remember last year being Shrek themed, and I think there was even a Top Gun themed menu at some point over the summer. For the Ice Age menu, I got a Manny which was a Chocolate Orange Mocha drink. I got it hot and it was great! The space inside is quiet, nice, and well lit. It's a great place to get work done. In the past, I've noticed the wifi could be tragically slow, which made some tasks difficult. During my most recent visit, though, I don't recall the wifi being slow at all, so it seems like that issue has been fixed. There is also plenty of outdoor seating if you get lucky with one of the three nice weather days in San Antonio. I really like the coffee here. For such a small shop, they do a great job, and it has become an essential stop for me every time I am in Castroville. RIYL: Coffee shops that are old gas stations but do not have a functional gas pumps anymore, so you don't accidentally get gasoline instead of a latte. I hate when that happens!!

He got the cream cheese strawberry pastry and pineapple upside down mini cake. I chose a simple chocolate chip cookie and a chocolate croissant. I love how these pastries are not too sweet. I asked the employee to choose one for me. She decided on the strawberry filled pop tart which I probably wouldn't have chosen myself. But i'm sure glad she did! The pastry was flaky and soft, the strawberry filling was not overly sweet. The pop tart was so good overall! I will definitely be coming back on my next cheat day.

You deserve more exposure and reviews than you've gotten. We had attempted to eat next door, so maybe it was a good thing so we didn't overindulge here. We had honey butter toast, cream cheese pinwheel, and a chocolate chip cookie. Let me say this, I cannot compare this place to a regular bakery. Like the inedible, completely waay to sweet other bakery in town. A true dessert, lets all the ingredients shine. Not just ungodly amounts of sugar. I can't compare it to a donut shop or Mexican bakery. Also, in price, it's not cheap compared to others, but it's worth every dam penny. The three items we had, were are all perfectly balanced. The honey butter toast was different in all the best ways possible. I'm going to assume it was fresh brioche, soaked in a honey mixture, then seared or broiled to just the point BEFORE it tastes burnt. That sweet spot, that takes true skill to perfect. The cream cheese pinwheel was almost as perfect. If not has just a little note of the cream cheese it would've been just as great. The cookie...it was so good you forgive that they pulled it out to early and it collapsed. I don't think it was intentional, but it was so good that we saved it, and later used the natural crater for a scoop of vanilla ice cream. One suggestion is asking if you would like your items slightly warmed up. This is worth a drive anywhere even remotely considered close. Thank you for saving my day!
