We enjoyed our brunch here! We both ordered sweet French toasts--mine was the Cappuccino French toast, and my sister got the Very Berry. Both were very good and beautifully presented. We also got coffee. I originally wanted a dirty matcha latte, but they had run out of matcha, so I went with a dirty cinnamon latte instead. The inside of the restaurant is spacious, and the booth we sat in was very comfortable and pretty. Overall, I'd definitely come back, but I do wish they had matcha available next time! read more

Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon. Small crowd in the restaurant. Seating was comfortable, restaurant was attractive. I ordered a breakfast with hashbrowns, chicken fried chicken and eggs. Hash browns were nice and crunchy. The eggs were flat and round on the plate and looked like a yellow pancake. Lol. But they were very very good. Chicken fried chicken was crunchy and maybe a little over cooked. The breading broke off when you tried to cut it. Very hard to eat the breading with the chicken. Nothing tasted seasoned. Not even salt the breading or the chicken itself. I am a Texas girl who loves Chicken Fried Chicken or Steak. This is the first time in my many years that I could not eat most of it. I kept adding the super finely ground salt they had, but it still didn't taste all that great. Maybe I should have gotten the beef instead. Looking at the pictures I saw online, the way I received mine is pretty much the way it is with all the others they make. The hubs got a breakfast bowl with a pancake. I gave him the pancake that came with my meal also. He said they were very good and very filling. I ate some of his leftover bowl and it was pretty good, but it also needed more salt. read more

We went in with high expectations. But some times stars don't align The place was deserted on a Friday morning. We ordered the veggie omelet and the Medi skillet. Both were ok , nothing to write home about. Service was passable Ambience was not much. But a decent place to grab a breakfast! read more

Hello neighbors... I wanted to bring a fantastic local restaurant to everyone's attention. Located at 503 West McDermott, in Allen right across the street from City Hall is Sofra... It's a great breakfast and lunch spot. Not sure how I missed this place for so long. My wife and I just had a late breakfast there, the food was great, the wait staff was friendly, the place was immaculately clean and the atmosphere was very relaxing... The pricing was absolutely not over the top but actually very reasonable considering the meal quality and dining experience. Sofra is a locally owned business and not one of those chain restaurants with high prices and mediocre food and service. If you are wondering what to have for breakfast or lunch, please support these folks and give them a try, you won't regret it. I will absolutely eat here again!!! (I am in no way affiliated with this business other than having enjoyed a great meal with my best girl) read more

Came here for breakfast on a weekday and service was great. Food took a bit to come out but it didn't bother us. Eggs were good but the hash browns were a little salty. Parking is plenty. They have a kids menu. Mine chose the Mickey pancakes and eggs. Super cute. read more

Hard, overcooked French toast. Weird tasting grits. Thick crepes, fake tasting raspberry sauce. Thin omelettes. Greasy hash browns. I came in expecting the same level of service and quality of food as the other places that serve Segofredo coffee but this one needs to either retrain their cooks or consider a new location to justify their high prices. Good luck to the family running it. I hope you're able to turn things around. read more

Really friendly staff, a tad slow overall with service, menu has plenty of options. My kid loved the Oreo pancakes. A bit high on prices for breakfast vs others in the area. My food was good but not amazing. read more

We visited this breakfast and brunch spot for Sunday brunch on Mother's Day, so it was understandably busy. The place was packed, and we had about a 15-20 minute wait--not too bad for a holiday crowd. We ordered the Bacado omelette and the Mediterranean skillet. While the food took quite a long time to arrive, it was absolutely delicious!!. it would've been nice if the staff had been better prepared for the crowd. I'll definitely give it another try and hope next time they're better staffed to handle busy morning --because the food really was great! read more

From the moment we walked in, to the moment we left, we were very well taken care of! They have great coffee options and their breakfast menu has a large assortment of options. The room has several tables, comfy booths and a cute coffee bar. If you're in the Allen area, looking for breakfast, this is a great place to eat! My husband had the regular French toast with a side of hash browns and I had the very berry French toast. Everything was delicious! They also have a large choice of coffee drinks to choose from. I had the Chai Latte and it was the perfect taste to go with my breakfast. Our server was absolutely wonderful as well! read more

We didn't know about this breakfast place last until last week. Their service is top notch and was great! To test a breakfast place I usually go for Benedict's and my husband has skillet. I feel since we love it so much, it is a perfect go test a place. And Sofra didn't disappoint. I ordered the French Bennie that came with a thick slice of ham and a glossy hollandaise with perfectly cooked eggs. The skillet was delicious.. my husband had the chicken carnitas and it was extremely tasty. The food came out fairly quickly. Definitely recommend this place if you are in Allen McKinney area. read more

I like the atmosphere in Sofra. We are always greeted with a smile and a kind word. The food is always fresh and delicious. I especially like the skillet meals. The portions are always large. I usually get to take some home! read more

This place is horrible, I was in there for 30 minutes before the cook recognized me and he didn't speak any English. He said on text "I don't know where my boss is! What a terrible place when no one can show up!! read more

Delightful new diner. My gals and I came for breakfast with baby and enjoyed a long leisurely meal with superb service. Of note our food was super clean and not at all greasy which we really appreciated. No vegan options so I had avo toast which was superb. One companion had breakfast carnitas bowl and said it was really good. Another had apple french toast and called it interesting. We drank coffee, fresh squeezed OJ, and chai lattes. We did find the price point a little high. We realize inflation has been recent and it's hard to balance with prices coming back down shouldn't that start reflecting on menus too. Especially at breakfast which should historically be cheaper. But overall we enjoyed our meal and experience. Loved the staff!! read more

I've been twice and have fallen in love with Sofra! The food is delicious with all of the American staples, but also has unique and flavorful Mediterranean dishes that add variety to the normal brunch fare. The service was so friendly. It's a clean and spacious restaurant and is a great place to visit with family/friends or to catch up on some work/reading and enjoy some alone time. read more

Great place for a quick breakfast or lunch. Not a plastic chain! We had a burger and the Migas.

The food was amazing, to begin with. The fruit was very fresh and the breakfast options had excellent flavor. We went on a Sunday morning and it was quite busy - but the service was very quick with the food coming out in under 10 minutes! Great place for breakfast / brunch! read more

I've been here two times and overall, I would recommend. First trip, the pancakes were really good. I had a plain one with my skillet meal andy son had the Oreo pancakes. He was a huge fan of his and that says a lot. Second trip wasn't as good for me. My daughter had the crepes and she was a fan. She has another place in town she likes better but gave Sofra a critical second place (also says a lot). However, I had the biscuits and gravy and just wasn't impressed. The biscuits were not what I expected ... Bland and small. The sausage gravy just had no flavor either. Complete missed opportunity on this southern staple. Hopefully the next trip will be betterr read more

Excellent breakfast and brunch!! All is made to order, very fresh and just excellent. Portions were not over the top and the crepes were perfect for sharing. Coffee is splendid, very nice Italian espresso beans. The hollandaise is very tasty, has a nice caper taste. Overall cannot complain about a single thing. Very kind and generous service, and the setting inside is pleasant and quirky. read more

Overrated! This is dollar store/temu style of breakfast restaurant and portion. Water down ice tea, thin chicken fried chicken, thin layer of skillets, not fresh pancake, makes you feel like the restaurant is not serving Texas size but rather TEMU, and dollar style by cutting corner. Service is not very attentive without waitress coming to refill the beverage. Will not come back. read more

Sofra is a hidden gem in Allen! I enjoyed the Senior Breakfast which is just right for a light eater. The ambiance is quaint & inviting. Our server, Chase was attentive & on point. He checked on us frequently assuring we were doing well! I wanna go back to try more of their dishes since this initial experience was a 5-star! Best of luck to Sofra!! read more

We're first timers who had a great breakfast here on Saturday. My Chicken Carnitas and wife's Eggs Benedict were aces. I forget what our son and his wife had but they were very complimentary. A lovely place, our hostess was friendly and our server attentive (she had a server in training with her). Things ran at a leisurely pace which was certainly understandable considering that they're new and it was almost full when we got there and packed with a few people waiting when we left. Generous serving sizes and very fairly priced. We'll certainly be back read more

Last minute decision to go out for brunch & decided to try this place from the great reviews. We were told they had a big crowd earlier but the place was clean and the staff was amazing! Hubby always judges a new breakfast place by their CFS breakfast plate. This one was perfectly cooked & real steak, not ground beef. My only complaint is too heavily seasoned for my taste a good steak doesn't need that. I really loved the omelette with all the fresh veggies and tomato. Pancake was fluffy and the perfect taste of vanilla. Delicious coffee too! read more

Went here for Mother's Day. Service was very slow. Waited for my son pancakes for over 45 mins mind you I had told them we were missing pancakes twice. Never got the pancakes. Still paid for them. Server never came back after we got our food. I had to ask another server to get our server to come help us out. read more

Fantastic service!! Fantastic coffee! Fantastic food! We really enjoyed our brunch at this little gem of a restaurant.

Food and service are always amazing here. We come here for breakfast often and it is consistently good. I love their corned beef hash and their crepes! read more

This a nice restaurant with good food and service. Nice alternative to the more crowded Allen breakfast places. Give it a try.

The ambiance and friendliness of the staff, were overshadowed, only, by the scrumptiousness of the food. My wife had chicken and waffles which she loved, I tried it (was quite tasty) but was too busy rounding third base on my country skillet to give much attention to anything else. Hash browns were perfectly crispy with an exquisite buttery biscuit. Num num num read more

Sofra Breakfast & Lunch - "All Meat Skillet" - first ingredient: hash browns - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Allen, Texas

Really nice breakfast spot. We had fantastic service and a perfect breakfast. They have more selections than most other breakfast spots.

Dined here on Sunday, May 5th. We were a party of four and quickly seated. Waiter was nice.. everything was going good for a while until we realized other people were getting food before us. Nearly an hour later and only after inquiring about our food, we received our order. The pancakes were undercooked, eggs were either under cooked or over cooked. The omelette was definitely not an omelet. There were items missing from our order. We waited another good ten minutes for the owner/manager to come speak to us. In which case, she was completely rude and went as far as telling us that we don't own a business, so we don't know what it is like. She doesn't know us. She doesn't know that we may very well own a business. Furthermore, she insisted that her customers like the food the way it was presented to us (undercooked). Who speaks/shouts at their customers like that!? Her attitude towards people who are dissatisfied in any manner is what will bring this place down. There are simply better ways to handle things like this. read more

Had breakfast here in July on a Sunday morning, This was our first time visit. We wanted to try because reviews were good but after ordering we waited at least 45 minutes for our meal which was unacceptable and the food was just marginal. We were disappointed & with all the options that are in the area we will not be returning Sorry about that Sofra! read more

My wife and I typically come here after church on Sunday. We placed our usual order but we asked for no cheese/no avocado (avocado being an allergy). We wait about 20 minutes, food comes out & it has both cheese/avocado on it. We asked for them to take it back. It happens, no big deal. They food comes back out to the table 1-2 min later with traces of avocado still within the meal. Thankfully there was a server who suggested that we leave because the OWNER refused to remake the order but also stated "Just wipe the avocado off, it's not like she'll die". Given the fact that they sent this order out minutes after us sending it back, I truly believe the owner made this remark. I also hope this server is protected and doesn't lose her job for being HONEST!!! They sent out a server who claimed to be the assistant manager, then a secondary owner came out and stated that they typically remake the order when there's an allergy. Well if this were the case why wasn't it remade the first time we sent it back? We just hope that they don't do this again in the future. It can literally cost someone their life. read more

DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY ALLERGIES! My husband and I came here as we do many Sundays. Today we ordered a meal with no cheese and no avocado. (One being a preference and the avocado being an allergy). They bring the entree out with both on it. We politely let the server know that it was wrong and asked if we could have it re-made. They took it back and brought it back 1 minute later with traces of avocado still on the plate. The server politely informed us that the owner stated "just wipe it off, it's not like she'll die" and refused to make it again. The other co-owner came out to apologize and offer to remake, however this business can no longer be trusted. read more
