This chicken is now my go-to. Fantastic! So why four stars? The noise level inside is crazy high. I have fancy high-tech hearing aids and they could barely keep up. Maybe this is why I come once a year, and only eat in the courtyard. Another plus is the service. Consistently great every time I've been here.

I found that prices were a bit high for what you get. For example,…read moreClassic Ceasar Salad....$12.00 add 1/2 Chicken breast, $10.00. That would make it $22.00 "for a salad.

The donuts called my name the minute I stepped up to the bar to order...so many yummy options to chose from and the same goes for their coffee choices. The team at Midnight Morning really took time to cater to my needs and answer questions to help me make great choices since it was my first time in. I ended up ordering a Cortado, the avocado and pepper jam sandwich, and their epic strawberry brioche doughnut. When I'm not in a rush, I'm going to definitely come back and enjoy the patio area and a cocktail. I'm sure it will be amazing!

The bread was slightly dry but I suppose that's to be expected with a toogoodtogo bag. I wish they would slice the large boule because that was hard to do at home! Maybe I'll ask in-store next time. The staff was friendly and explained the process and what's in the bag to me before purchase. Overall, a fun experience.

I'll need a second visit to Sophia's. I went during the heat wave (108° index) and there's no way I…read morecould sit outdoors in the blazing sun. Note: they don't have air conditioning inside either--but we were seated in a booth under a ceiling fan. It was tolerable. They did seem to gate-keep ice cubes--we had to keep asking for them. The calamari was pretty standard except for the cornmeal batter, which I enjoyed. The sausage, peppers & onions were delicious but I needed some yellow mustard to get the Fenway feel. My eggplant parm was saucy and delicious. The pasta is homemade. My date had the mussels over polenta--this is more saucey and less brothy. The heat really impacted my date night vibe and I'll have to go back in cooler weather. I thought the dessert choices were limited (only 3-tiramisu, lemon cake, and cannoli). Not a gelato or sorbetto in sight. Julie was an excellent server who checked back often and offered suggestions when we asked.

This is good food, prepared quickly and there's always a cup of coffee. She had the corned beef hash and I the blue berry pancakes. Both were delicious. Service was insanely speedy and really nice.

One Saturday morning I called in an order, they said it should be ready in about 15-20 minutes, but it actually took 50 minutes.
