Perfect spot for a date. We had great apps and each ordered the Paella for dinner. I do wish the lobster was cracked more as it was a little struggle to get the meat but great presentation and instagram worthy. The sangria was perfection. The desserts were enough for 1 per person. The back patio was nice and the service was attentive but respectful. In terms of photos, the back patio could be lit a bit more (another strand of lights). They were very clean. Parking was easy as they have a lot. No valet the night we went. The price is reasonable but check the menu/website prior so you know what you are getting into. read more

came here for hh. yet again this place over delivers. fabulous cocktails. from the hh menu - the quinoa empanada, guac, and argentine eggplant meatballs are standouts. my wife got the salmon entree and it was incredible - perfectly cooked and a wonderful saffron sauce. this place really knows how to cook quinoa. but the killer dish was the steak tacos read more

We just ordered from this place, and I have to say that I'm extremely disappointed. Granted, I know it's takeout, but the meals looked nothing like the presentation pictures from other people's reviews. I got the short ribs, and they were dry, and I didn't taste any goat cheese in the goat cheese mashed potatoes. My wife got the chicken dish. It was a small chicken rollup on top of sauce missing all the add-ons I see in the pictures. Despite that, she enjoyed it. For dessert, she got the cheesecake with guava sauce. If you look at the pictures, it's a beautiful display with guava sauce and vanilla ice cream. She got a bland piece of cheesecake sans guava sauce. It was tasteless and not worth finishing(pictured). Again, I know it's takeout, but there shouldn't be such a drastic difference from take-out to dine-in. I will not be returning. read more

Sonora - Cheesecake with guava sauce. No guava! - Latin American Near Me - Port Chester, New York

Had a great " Christening. brunch" at Sonora! The staff was spot on with the service as were the drinks and food! Their appetizers are to die for - coconut shrimp, smoky Mac and cheese, goat cheese fritters, eggplant meatballs the list goes on. Can't wait to go back and enjoy a dinner! read more

I'll cut to the chase, the negative reviews are on target; we were excited to go because the menu and photos of the dishes looked so inviting and delicious but we were met with substandard food and service. Cost a pretty penny too. I ordered the paella as was recommended by our waiter. It was terrible and the 1/2 (2lb)lobster in the dish was inedible 1) it was submerged in greasy rice/food, un-cracked and impossible to get at 2) the 1/2 of tail that was "getable" was complete mush and gross. I won't bore you with the rest, don't bother. Couldn't get the check for almost 45 minutes. Yikes. Plenty of other fine places to go in 914. read more

The place was nicely decorated and the service was good..... the drinks were not the best and the only food I liked was the eggplant meatballs they were full of flavor, the rest was just ok.... So I would say try it for yourself and maybe you will like it. read more

The service was excellent and the ambiance is lovely. Last time we ate there, the food was excellent but not so last night. I ordered filet mignon The filet mignon was covered in potatoes, rice and chorizo. The meat was overcooked and the rice and potatoes tasted as if they were leftovers from the night before. The chorizo did not add to the dish. read more

Everything was great. We shared a few tapas. They were well prepared and delicious. The service was excellent. My only criticism is the noise level. read more

Great food and service. Paella and guacamole are great. Been here twice. brunch and dinner. Coming back again.

Dined here on a whim because I was catching a show nearby and I was blown away at a number of things. The restaurant is decorated so uniquely inside, there is a cool atmosphere & vibe, and the staff are all friendly and accommodating. I ordered the stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes. I'm not a person that typically orders chicken and I'm so glad I did. This dish was magnificent! One of my all time favorite dishes I've ever had at a restaurant in Westchester. I can't wait to go back and order the exact same thing. read more

Disappointing food and service. Not going back! They screwed up our order and the food was barely edible once it arrived.

We've been to Sonora a dozen times since they opened. For whatever reason, it had been a solid 18 months since our last visit, and we were excited to dine there again this past weekend. Unfortunately, this visit disappointed. For one, the menu had changed dramatically. We always thought of Sonora as a tapas place, offering a wide variety of small plates to share. The tapas menu has shrunk considerably, and because one in our party eats no meat, her choices were extremely limited. We did share several small plates among three of our foursome, and they were all good, with a special salmon tartare among the best. Table-made guacamole was also very good, although that's tough to not get good. The ceviche was fine ... nothing all that special. Unfortunately, the next course is where we were really disappointed. Sonora had a red snapper special that sounded delicious. Instead, the fish was well overcooked and dry, and the small clams in the shell were flavorless. We also shared shrimp tacos, which were fine ... nothing memorable. I will give the hangar steak a thumbs up ... of the three we shared, we all agreed that the steak was the only dish we really enjoyed. My wife had the squash tacos, which she enjoyed. Desserts were yummy. Sonora had been a mainstay for years ... solid every time. This weekend, we were disappointed enough to cross it off our list. Felt like they took away the best parts and replaced them with mediocre fare that lacked enough to be worth it. A shame. read more

Excellent food top chef friendly service and relaxing cozy atmosphere upstairs they have a room for private parties, outdoor dining too and a great trio jazz band on the weekend, their drinks, cordials are fabulous. The desserts and their many coffee choices end a memorable enjoyable evening! read more

We went on a Sunday for brunch. The food was delicious. It was four of us, so we tried a bunch of different things. Everything was soo good. They had live music which was a nice bonus. Also, cava sangria was so good. A must! read more

Service was on point food and atmosphere was great . Will definitely go back. I recommend this place

The mango sangria was both tasty and strong. The menu was cute, labeling where each dish was from, culturally. The service was great; very sweet and knowledgable of the dishes. We ordered three tapas, including the steak and manchego cheese flatbread and quinoa empanadas. Everything was delicious! There were many creative dishes, which made the experience fun as well. We shared lomo saltado, which was presented beautifully and was full of flavor. Unfortunately the lomo was a tad on the salty side. There was a man there, by the way he was dressed most likely the owner, who was a little intense. All the staff were, as mentioned, wonderful, but this guy seemed to make all of the young servers nervous. Owner/manager in the grey suit, take a chill pill. Customers pick up on this and it even made me feel a little uneasy. But our server was great, warm, and knowledgable. Overall, I would suggest this place, lovely for tapas and trying something new. I will definitely be returning. Hopefully grey suit guy drinks some sangria before my next visit so I can give 5 stars next time read more

Sonora - Yuca frita, steak, quinoa empanadas. - Latin American Near Me - Port Chester, New York

Excellent Latin American themed restaurant with a hint of the SouthWest. I've dined here quite a few times over the years when in the neighborhood and have always found the experience to be very enjoyable. The menu choices are both varied and creative and the food preparation first class. Add to this great ambiance and service, and reasonable prices and you will have a great time here. This restaurant is always very busy and that speaks for itself. Enjoy. read more

Amazing food!! Best guacamole and tapas! Excellent staff! The food was fresh, and delicious! Fish tacos were perfection! Ended with chocolate fondue- their sangria so fruity and delicious- not too sweet. We are coming back to eat through the menu. read more

I travel to Port Chester frequently for entertainment, and always eat at Sonora Restaurant! The food and ambience are excellent, and the staff is superb. There is always a smiling face, from the time we get seated until the time we leave our tables! Antonio is an excellent waiter, and everyone in our crew was impressed with his table side manner, and his recommendations were spot on. He suggested the short ribs, and they were melt in your mouth fantastic! The guacamole was as fresh as it gets, and our table also enjoyed the ceviche, as well as the pan seared halibut, and an assortment of drinks that were most excellent. When we ride in for a show, its after a two and half hour drive from Pennsylvania. It's always nice to know amazing people like Antonio, and the excellent food served at Sonora are always waiting for us when we hit town. We'll be back...Most highly recommended! read more

This place is southern westchester's "secret gem". I love everything about this restaurant. The food is amazing. The atmosphere is great and the employees are always super friendly and helpful. The chef- impeccable. If you have not been here-!you are missing out. read more

Tonight I went to Sonora to have dinner with my family. They had valet parking which was especially convenient for my grandmother so she didn't have to walk to far to the front door. I wasn't sure what to expect going in but I was pleasantly surprised with a doorway lined with butterflies which opened into a series of rooms decked with wooden chairs, ornate light fixtures, colorful walls and festive music. For checking in through Yelp I was able to get a pitcher of free sangria the Red version and it was delicious. It wasn't too sweet and the assortment of apples, oranges, etc inside gave it a nice flavor. We ended up ordering Tapas versions of Coconut Shrimp, Lobster Quesadillas and Mexican Pizza. I don't eat seafood too often but the Coconut Shrimp had a nice amount of flavor and the sauce it came with complemented it nicely. The Lobster Quesadillas were definitely my favorite between the three. It was easy to eat. I'm a little unsure about the Mexican Pizza. It consisted of and while it tasted great the weight of the ingredients such as the avocado slice made it difficult to hold/eat. My mother had a bowl of black beans and rice which was very filling. The beans were chewier than she wanted but it tasted great overall. The South of the Border Lobster Roll was nice. I'm a sucker for bread and the bread was nice and soft, the vegetables were crunchy. The Lobster itself was inconsistent. Some of it was soft and other parts were tougher to get through. To finish off, we had a Blueberry and Strawberry Cobbler. We had the choice of Vanilla, Mango or Coconut and I chose coconut which complimented the cobbler nicely. The crust was delicious and the fruit was still full of flavor. The staff and managers were very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely visit again! read more

Looking for rancid beef, crappy service and terrible ambiance? Then this is the place for you! This place used to be good. Would go here on date night and loved the food drinks and service. Decided to treat my family to a meal here for a special occasion and left feeling embarrassed and nauseous. They served us rotten meat, and the waiter didn't speak enough English to be able to fulfill our request for more water. Also, they overcharge. Never going back again. read more

I've been here several times before and both the service and food were excellent. I invited a friend out for dinner and was so disappointed. My meal was so over cooked that it was inedible. Unfortunately, the waiter did not come back to our table for 20 minutes despite the fact that I pushed the plate away from me. I twice told him that it was overcooked and dry and he did not so much as apologize. I tried to fix the problem by asking for more sauce but it was just too dry. Sorry to say but one over cooked meal is forgivable but terrible service is not. After spending money to take my friend out to a nice place on a Friday night I went to bed hungry. read more

I don't normally leave reviews. I've been here before and loved the food. I live near by and figured I'd come and check it out again after some time has passed. My partner and I decided to split a meal and order a couple tapas appetizers. We ordered steak expecting it to be full of flavor. It was not. Sadly, the food was subpar. Definitely not worth the money spent. They did however compensate with a chocolate lava cake and some complimentary cookies at the end of our meal. Still, don't think we'll be returning. The drinks were good, that's about it. Also, one of the runners took out plate while we were still eating....quit disappointing to say the least. read more

Tasty food. Great cocktails. Amazing service. The ambiance is lovely, especially when they do the live jazz. This will become our new go to spot! read more

Came in on a Saturday night with a 730 reservation for four people and arrived promptly at 730. The restaurant and bar were packed, so we sided up to the bar for a drink to wait. Around 8 someone in our party checked in and was told it should be only 10-15 more minutes. 815 rolls around and we're now 2 drinks in, and 2 hours into our babysitting charges, and still no word. At 830 I ask to speak to a manager, after a hostess tells me it will only be 10-5 more minutes, who makes me wait 5 minutes before coming to speak to me. She tells me they seated a different party at our table but one should be opening up soon. I ask her if she'll be paying for our next round at the bar but she assured me that we'll be seated in no time and that she'll get us a round when we sit. We finally sat at 855 for a 730 reservation. We put in an order of spicy guacamole immediately and sangria (rather than each order a $15 drink we decided a $30 pitcher was a better idea to be nice). The guacamole came out with absolutely zero spice. I would feed it to my kids without hesitation but we were assured it was "spicy." Zero spice. We ate it because we were starving. We ordered a few other apps for the table to share that were fine. The entrees were definitely the highlight. They got our order incorrect but it was quickly corrected. The manager came to check on us once early on and we told her about the not spicy guacamole - she apologized and said she'd be back to check on us as more food came out. We never saw her again. We needed to get home to relieve babysitters, so we passed on dessert, but they brought 2 out anyway. I would have preferred that they give us money for the sitters...the desserts were both just ok. Very sweet. So we got a pitcher of sangria, guacamole that wasn't very good and desserts we didn't order as an apology for waiting almost 90 minutes with no information unless pressed for it. The restaurant obviously does extremely well but with so many other amazing options out there, the only way we'd go back is if they invited us back to right their wrongs. In the meantime, we'll cross this one off the list read more

Good place I never had have gone until recently. Just don't be too hungry as plates are small. But worth it for light dinner

This is a nice fusion restaurant: American-Latin. It's tapas style so we ordered several dishes. The coconut shrimp was so good! Lobster quesadillas were not impressive. The margaritas tasted spicy and great! The various tacos were also yummy! When going there, don't expect authentic Latin food: it's got a delicious twist instead. read more

Went here for Thanksgiving as they had a menu catered to the holiday Turkey was one of the entrees they had on the menu and we left totally satisfied as the three course menu was one hit after the next place was crowded but you could not tell with the great service they had from getting out drinks giving us a complimentary appetizer we will definitely be going back read more

We ordered the paella package and it was excellent. In addition to the seafood paella which was plentiful and very fresh it came with a wonderful cheese cake dessert and a goat cheese and beets salad. I would highly recommend it and feel very good about Sonora paella being the last meal in this challenging 2020. Debbie read more

The atmosphere is incredible!! The food and drinks are delicious! I ordered the goat cheese and guava croquettes, the mofongo oysters, the guacamole ...everything is absolutely incredible! Has wonderful customer service and the staff are friendly! I would definitely come back! And, oh! Go check their happy menu and their brunch menus! I look forward to coming back! read more

The music is not appropriate - a Spanish restaurant and jazz? They used to have live Spanish music - what happened?

I made a 7:30 reservation for 4 and arrived 10 minutes early to a packed house. That was a good sign the food would be good. They clearly accommodated walk-ins on first come first serve basis regardless of reservations. I ordered a margarita at the bar that was served in a martini glass. Why??? We ordered tapas which were mostly good. The bus staff spilled the substantial remains of a ceviche tapas on me and ran off. I had to use our napkins and wet wipes from my purse to clean up as no one came to assist. I literally had to point out the mess to our waiter for them to move the table and replace it with a clean setup. Eventually some one came to apologize after I had taken care of cleaning myself up. We were offered churros which mostly no one wanted as we would have ordered desert if desired. Got home to realize my suede boots are stained. No returning! Not that they care, obviously! read more

I really used to love this place. It's still decent but used to be much better. What's great... The staff was superb, always checking in and accomadating. The decor is unchanged. The drinks inconsistent. The first round was awesome and second round not so much. The food was lacking in salt and flavor. Overall would probably come back because maybe it was an off day. read more

Sonora - Argentina - Dulce De Leche - Latin American Near Me - Port Chester, New York

Restaurant week forces me to get out and about (within a 1-hr driving radius, that is), so four of decided to make the trip to Sonora for dinner and the RW specials. The red sangria was very good - the pricetag for a pitcher seems daunting at first, but it's a fairly large carafe and realistically is not much more expensive than four drinks on our own. My app was very good - a quinoa quesadilla. The apps in general were a bit on the small side, but they were at least tasty. Two of us got the braised short ribs, and two of us got the paella. I can't comment on the short ribs, but they seemed good, as one person cleaned both his plate and the remnants of the other. The paella was good - fine - and while mine was a bit short on "stuff" and a bit heavy on rice, you kind of can't go wrong with it. I had sorbet for dessert - mango and coconut - which was very good, but I was cold and didn't finish it. The service was ok, if not sliiiiiightly intrusive. One server was very loud, and the others were sort of hovering. That aside, they at least served in proper order (eldest woman to youngest) and from the proper sides (serve on left, clear on right). It's good for small groups, of which there were several very loud ones - It's a small place, so sound carries, but generally the ambiance is nice, and I'd be inclined to return if I happened to be in the area, but I don't know that I'd make a special trip. read more

Sonora - Duck with butternut squash - Latin American Near Me - Port Chester, New York

I found this restaurant to be very enjoyable to my surprise, it is in a strange location but in my opinion a hidden gem! I went with a friend on a Saturday night and the service was superb, everytime my water glass was empty it was immediately filled! We ordered a bottle of white wine and they immediately put it on ice which was nice. I thought it was tastefully decorated and the food was wonderful! We started with the guacamole which they made at our table, not as spicy as I would have liked but still good. Next we had the lobster quesadilla which was pretty awesome, nice and cheesy. My main meal was a Mahi-Mahi special and it was crusted with plantains over two enchiladas filled with crab meat and veggies, interesting combo but it worked well! We were provided bread with a tasty dipping sauce free of charge and and the end of the meal we were delighted to get homemade cookies as a nice treat. I wish I knew about this place sooner, will definitely be back! read more

First visit to this restaurant and had a fantastic experience! Staff both friendly and attentive...always refilling drinks, setting new silverware/plates between courses, and cleaning crumbs off the table. But most important is the DELICIOUS food. Both plating/presentation and taste were OUTSTANDING!!! I had the eggplant meatballs, calamari salad, and sirloin empanadas for appetizer and the churrasco and seafood paella for dinner. Best paella I've ever had! My only complaint was that I was so full, I couldn't eat all my food. Definitely want to try other dishes, as well as their weekend brunch. read more
