Everything about this meal was outstanding. We tried a variety of dishes including the bolognese, shrimp appetizer, bread service, pizza, and a kids rigatoni with butter and cheese, and every item was excellent. The bolognese was especially memorable. Instead of being overly thick, acidic, or heavy, it was light, balanced, and incredibly flavorful. It had a refined, well layered taste that felt authentic and thoughtfully prepared. The shrimp appetizer was perfectly cooked and seasoned, making a great start to the meal. The bread was fresh and delicious, exactly what you want with Italian food. The pizza had a great crust with well balanced toppings, and even the kids rigatoni with butter and cheese was done perfectly. It may be a simple dish, but it was executed well and clearly made with care. Service was attentive and professional, and the atmosphere made the experience even better. When every dish at the table is this good, it is clear the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. A truly excellent Italian dining experience. read more

We are at Sophia's which is located at the Conrad Hilton Hotel at evermore in Orlando for the weekend. We enjoyed breakfast here at Sophia's out on the patio for the last two days. Service and food is exquisite. You can have a buffet, which includes everything and everything for $50 a person or you can have à la carte and get served. I chose the à la carte option because I do not want to be influenced by all the sweets and heavy duty food options. The patio seating overlooks the lagoon on the property. It is a beautiful setting. read more

Our server Vito was absolutely amazing! It felt very special when he approached us using our name. He had a very uplifting spirit and connected with us instantly. He gave us recommendations for our drinks and definitely didn't steer us wrong. I do wish they had more options with meat as I do have an allergy to fish. My pasta was originally a shrimp fra diavolo, but I wanted to have chicken instead. He said it's not something that's done with it, but he'll bring it out on the side. Which worked out great! My pasta was very tasty. Ohhh and I don't know how I forgot the bread, it was so good we got seconds! The bread is dipped in oil and seasoning. Vito was also very sweet and brought us out a chocolate dessert. It was a very lovely experience and I can see ourselves returning :) read more

Some great food at a relatively new resort! Dining some family who were up to visit, I would consider this a hidden gem in Orlando! Out if all the dishes (I tried a little of everyone's) I think the Maiale was the tastiest. The Baked Fontina was popping with flavor for an appetizer, but if you don't want to spend money on the apps, they still provide some bread for the table. Our server Tim went above and beyond and was kind, helpful and super aware of any allergies at the table. A great dining experience! read more

Came here for dinner on my first visit to the Conrad! There's gorgeous indoor and outdoor seating; outdoors gave us a nice view of the huge lagoon pool. The complimentary focaccia was delightful - it had awesome flavor and really impressed me! I shared the guanciale pizza, and it was also very tasty - the combo of meat with the peppers was a nice flavor, and the crust was very soft. The pizzas are perfect to split! Pastas were a bit hit or miss for the group - the bolognese was really loved, but the more mild gambretti left a little to be desired. This place is definitely on the pricier side as well, but that's to be expected at this type of resort. Either way, I think I'd come again for the pizza and bread! read more

We had a wonderful experience at Sophia's Trattoria. This is where we had brunch during the days we stayed at the Conrad Orlando at Evermore. It was inclusive with our stay and conveniently located on the level below the main lobby entrance. We had wonderful service from start to finish. Mackenzie was the lovely hostess that greets you with a smile from the moment you walk into Sophia's. John was our server on day one and he was very accommodating and attentive. He didn't miss a beat. I think Mackenzie worked on our 2nd visit too with Fonzie seating us to our table. Fonzie was full of personality and very upbeat. Paulina was our server on day two and she was wonderful as well, very polite and friendly and always good at checking back on us. DAY #1: * Keto Bowl $23 * Avocado Toast $21 * Steak & Eggs $28 * Overnight Oats $15 * Smoked Salmon Lox Bagel $24 I had Keto Bowl and it was healthy and delicious. The only disappointment was cutting into my poached eggs and got no runny eggs, more like soft boiled eggs. Egg porn fail. Lol. My husband's Avocado Toast looked beautiful as presentation was on point, one of the prettiest Avo Toast I've ever seen. Even my daughter's Smoked Salmon presentation was beautiful with the salmon beautifully decorated on platter and the bagel and cream cheese served on a separate plate. My son asked for medium rare on his Steak & Eggs but it looked more medium, still tasty. DAY #2: * Egg White Caprese Omelette $24 * Eggs Benedict $25 * Belgian Waffles $21 * Steak & Eggs $28 I was going to get an Eggs Benedict on the second day but opted out since my husband and daughter were getting it. I could steal bites from hubby's dish. I decided to go with the Egg White Caprese Omelette. My omelette was very fluffy and had good flavor with the Pine Nut Pesto. I wanted to sub the side of crispy potatoes with fruit but forgot to do so. Still good. My son got the Steak & Eggs again and asked for the poached eggs and chimichurri sauce on the side, he didn't like that the sauce touched his scrambled eggs the first time around. Ha. My daughter got the Belgian Waffles and great presentation but the waffles were slightly overcooked and crispy. She still enjoyed it. Eggs Benedict was delicious with the brioche bread. All in all, Sophia's Trattoria is a beautiful and very spacious restaurant in a great location at Conrad Orlando with amazing views of the lagoon. The vibe, service and food quality are top notch! read more

When I say You MUST Try Sophia's Trattoria at the Conrad Evermore please take my advice! The food is outstanding & the service and atmosphere is delightful. I really don't know where to begin so I'll just mention my top 5 favorite dishes. For Staters - the Cauliflower Salad was amazingly fresh and full of flavor. The Lamb Ribs were tender and perfectly seasoned and the Burrata was excellent. I also can't say enough about my 2 favorite entrees. The Whole Branzino is a must do for anyone that likes a flaky and moist fish entree. While the Royal Red Fra Diavalo will make you want to go back again and again. read more

Service was slow, but we were okay with it. It's summer and nice not to feel rushed. Food was good! We split a salad and bolognese, our kids spilt a pizza and fries. I will say the prices are reasonable except when it comes to dessert. A kids ice cream sundae should not be $16 and the dessert donuts should not be $16 either. That's the only complaint I have. read more

This location is a little deceptive. It's part of the Conrad Hilton hotel. Well that sounds impressive, but I think more importantly on the "Evermore Resort". We actually stayed on the resort, but this restaurant is available to everyone. As I said we stayed at the Evermore Resort and one of our children and their children, our grandchildren were with us. So last day we opted to eat here. We didn't have a reservation but we did eat seated. Option to sit outside or inside. We chose outside. It was the breakfast buffet but you also have the option for ala carte. Now I've had breakfast buffets before but this is a breakfast buffet on steroids. You just think of it and it's there. All kinds of breakfast foods, fruit, cereals, and omelettes made to order, or any style eggs to order. You might think since you're having the buffet the wait staff would not be attentive. Here, don't worry about that. The entire staff is at your beck and call. Oh here's the best part. My daughter and her husband picked up the bill. And let just say this, my daughter knows how to work the buffet and staff. I have to take credit for that, she has watched me do years. So, if you're vacationing in Central Florida you should consider eating here. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. read more

First time trying this place as an Orlando local and it was great! Pizza, Shrimp appetizer and Rocher dessert were definitely the stars of the show! Great waiter, Tim, who was so kind and on his game. Loved sitting next to the open kitchen and watching the food preparation(a favorite thing of mine). Menu had a good variety, the pastas seemed delicious so will definitely be back and try that next time. Arancini was standard, nothing special. Bread service was super delicious focaccia with rosemary, olive oil and sea salt flakes. Definitely a new date spot in the rotation. read more

As a family for spring break we stayed at the Conrad and this was a cute convinient option on-site. We did not know what to expect since it's a newer place but the vibe was super cute over looking the sunset on the lake. Our sever was VERY attentive, kind and knowledgeable about the food/wine industry. We were very impressed with the service. There was a mix up on our order but the staff MORE than took care of us to make up for their mistake and we are very understanding as sometimes things happen. The service truly was next level. This was an early birthday celebration for me and I was not disappointed. Truly some of the best service I have received anywhere! read more

Brunch is delicious! We took a girl's group here for breakfast and absolutely loved the experience. We sat at an outdoor round table for 7 and enjoyed overlooking the sandcastle / lagoon view with a nice shaded breeze. Our server was attentive and funny which made for a great experience. He went out of his way to craft specialty coffee drinks for us. As some people had special requests, he was happy to accommodate. I enjoyed a mocha latte and the Benedict. It had perfectly cooked eggs with mortadella which is like an Italian ham and the brioche offered a nice light sweetness. The hash browns were amazing! Assorted breakfast pastries, muffins, and breads were also very good. I would certainly recommend for a nice start to the day. read more

This was an ok experience. And I'm being generous with 3 stars. We ordered the tuna to start and that was good. We were given complimentary bread and that was stale and hard. As someone who makes their own bread, that was awful. The sauce had potential. We also got a side of the mushroom risotto. This was extra salty. All I tasted was salt and the risotto was a little hard. I took a bite and had to leave the rest. Finally my lasagna tasted good but I took most of it to go since the service was so slow and I had to leave. It wasn't until the next day at my house that I noticed my lasagna leftovers were all burnt. Finally the ambience was weird. There was no music or nothing and for only there being three other tables, there were lots of servers running around looking busy but yet our service was so slow and the manager was flirting with a group of women dining. Finally the tiramisu was so sad, it was mostly just crème. No restaurant has made me want to jump into the kitchen and teach them how to cook more than this. read more

Outstanding dinner! Open concept with a lovely table overlooking the lake Sophia was my server at Sophia's (this one is a student, not the namesake) The bread was out of this world... This chicory salad with porchetta and the short rib with risotto were so both BIG on flavor, I had to eat every bite! And to think I was going to Del Frisco's. I made right choice coming here. You should too! read more

Recently stayed at the Conrad Orlando and decided to try out Sophia's on our last night. We were very happy that we did. I had the Pork Ragu, my wife had the Braised Octopus, and my daughter had the kids Bolognese. All three pastas were amazing, and the portions were huge. I wish the hotel had a mini-fridge in the room so I could have saved the leftovers. If you are staying at the Evermore and are looking for a good Italian restaurant, I highly recommend Sophia's. read more

Got to eat here twice during our stay with the Conrad, once for dinner and once for breakfast the next morning. Dinner - absolutely amazing service and food. Started with a spritzy cocktail and a Negroni. On the magical dining menu, we ordered one of each since there were four of us. Top picks: octopus pasta (the most tender octopus I've ever had and I loved it, portions were huge), beef carpaccio (def getting this again, the tender meat and sharp cheese is chefs kiss), pistachio cheesecake (MUST GET, I'm still thinking about it) Breakfast - I think their dinner is more impressive. I got the pear grain bowl and it was delish but not worth the price it felt. My fam raved about the chia seed pudding though Will be back even if we're not staying at the Conrad! read more

So Sophia's is mixed for me, it has amazing customer service, but just okay food. The beef carpaccio was very good, the beef short rib was tender but sightly dry but still decent. The rack of lamb was eh... I've had better lamb from the Australia booth at Epcots Food and Wine. It was cooked well just lacked any flavor. The dessert was good also, and my kids enjoyed their meals. I would probably give it 4 stars but what brings it down for me is probably the price, it's kind of pricey for just okay food. If you're going to spend the money and being in Orlando there are so many better restaurants at that price point. read more

Staying at the Conrad Orlando for the first time and decided to try the price fixe Magical Dining menu here for dinner. The sophisticated yet warm decor matched the Maldives-esque water front view and the open kitchen did not cause a hectic atmosphere as they can sometimes do. The waiter, Devone, was extremely attentive and personable. He made sure to address my allergy concerns upfront and took extra care to speak with the chef regarding needed dietary accommodations. From the drinks to the dessert and everything in between, no bite was left uneaten as the flavors and textures perfectly complemented one another. My only food critique would be that the portions were too large. If you are eating with others, I would recommend sharing an appetizer or two and entree as all alone were a meal in themselves. I look forward to dining here again next time we are in town. read more

I finally got to visit the Conrad Orlando and had the chance to dine at the Sophia Trattoria for dinner! For starters, our server had recommended the potato puffs so we decided to give it a try and it surely did not disappoint! For entree, my boyfriend had ordered the pork ragu while I ordered the braised short rib and both entrees were amazing! For desserts we had ordered a chocolate mouse cake to share which were also good! I think adding a vanilla ice cream to this dessert would make it perfect! Overall, we enjoyed our food at Sophia! Surely we will be back with our friends next time! Servers are nice but the service was a little slow even though there was only a few customers. The place has plenty of tables and the ambiance was good! read more

Great food ! Really liked the mushroom pizza at dinner, the octopus pasta dish, the mini waffles at breakfast and the weekend brunch buffet. Wish the buffet was offered during the week as well! read more

What a great place!! I can say that I really enjoy every aspect of this place. We are staying in the hotel and wanted to nice birthday dinner for a family member I am so so glad we chose this place. The server which her name happens to be Sophia was great she helped us translate the menus and was very knowledgeable of every single thing on there. We got what was recommended and I am glad we did. To start we got the Straciatella the figs were so fresh and the cheese paired perfect. For the children we ordered the fish and ship. The fish was fried perfectly and the chips (fries) did kinda look and taste like McDonald's fries but I am not complaining. For main dish we got Casarecce this pasta was great the sauce was smooth and we got the gluten free. Strozzapreti Al Bianco this was my order it was smooth and the octopus was cooked to perfection melted properly in my mouth. I will love to get this again. We also got 2 pizzas Puglia and Campagna. The dough was so good and every topping was fresh and paired perfect. The food combinations were great this menu took time and passion. Huge congrats to who made it. There was no bland plate and no plate that I can say this was a bad idea. The restaurant it's self over looks the beautiful lagoon pool and the table was perfect for 9 of us.You can see in the kitchen and the smells coming from it were as good as the food. read more

Staying at the hotel . Plenty of tables were available and they weren't even busy . Was told an hour wait. What a joke.

This restaurant is located in the Conrad Hotel, we came for brunch and the food was good. It was nothing crazy spectacular but everything was good. It is valet only and they do validate SOME of the cost for parking but they do still make you pay a portion. The sangria was delicious!! read more

Sophia's Trattoria - 2 eggs, hash browns, butter croissant - Southern Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Delicious authentic Italian ingredients used in a modern, innovative way is how this restaurant was described to me. Service at Sophia's was excellent and you could tell the staff was excited and proud of the new restaurant and the lovely Conrad Hotel. The Hugo Allo Zafferano is a must try - a unique take on saffron gin. The flavors were very memorable! The Arancini was some of the best I've ever had. Smoky flavor from the prosciutto combined with the unique bite of saffron in a perfectly cooked fried risotto ball. The Puglia pizza was also one of the best pizzas I've tried. Perfectly cooked, delicious flavor, and impeccable balance. The pastas were very well done. I'd lean more towards a meat dish next time I dine, but you can't beat a good pasta. Sophia's has a lot of potential and although it is a new location, I suspect it'll grow very popular. I'll definitely return for a nice summer afternoon meal with the beautiful ambiance of the Conrad! read more

Horrible service (soooo slow, waiter was no where to be found most the time) felt we were held hostage. We ordered my daughter the steak so bland,overdone and dry asked for rigatoni with sauce instead took forever to come out. We had to stop another worker to get us help, the manager had to come to get noodles with sauce out. The shrimp pasta dish was just ok, the best thing we had was the wild mushroom pizza. Was really hoping for a better experience. read more

The restaurant gives cafeteria vibes in terms of ambiance. The outside tables have a great view and would have been a better seating option but it's just too hot to sit outside in the summer months in Florida + mosquitoes. So we sat inside, we asked for the best table due to celebrating my friends marriage. However, the table we got was nothing special at all. So all in all the ambiance leaves much to be desired. And so does the food, everything we ordered was so average or below. The only thing I liked was tiramisu - delicious and beautiful presentation. Service was great. But in my opinion for the price they charge this place is definitely not worth it! read more

The ambiance is stunning as it's located inside of the Conrad Orlando which is on Evermore property. You can look out at the 8-acre lagoon from most of the tables. The staff were very friendly and the menu had lots of variety. I was with a group of 8 so we tried a lot of items. Some of my favorites were the baked fontina, endive salad, potato puffs, and the margarita pizza. I didn't love the octopus or tuna crudo - I eat a lot of seafood and neither of them excited my taste buds. In lieu of dessert we opted for an after dinner drink and their espresso martinis are great! read more

The food and drinks were amazing- we still talk about it ! Can't wait to come back ! read more

I was able to visit the new Conrad Hilton Resort and Evermore and I was blown away. A must visit for those in the Orlando area. Food: Very delicious. We ordered the duck and the bolognese. The duck was cooked perfectly, very tender, and the accompanying sauce and brussel sprout puff was very good. A little pricey for the amount of food that was given, I wish there were more accompaniments. The bolognese had a wonderful flavor, some more meat in the sauce would have made it even better. The drinks, dessert, and bread service were also very good. Service: The service was 5 star. Our waitress was so kind and very attentive. She provided us with great recommendations and checked on us frequently but not excessively. We were celebrating a birthday and she gave us a free dessert which was a very nice touch. Ambiance: I would give the ambiance 10 stars if I could. The Conrad Hilton and adjoining Evermore Resort were stunning. It is very clear that so much thought was put into the architecture of the resorts. Everything was absolutely stunning, I felt like I was walking around a resort in Bora Bora. read more

So my boyfriend and I went to Sophia's two nights in a row on our Conrad staycation and both were the best meals ever. First night we got the potato puffs for an app and the bolognese and pork ragu for our entrees (ragu was great but we liked the bolognese better). For dessert we got the apple rhubarb pound cake- I can't appropriately describe how much we loved it, it would be a rated R description. Second night we shared the octopus app, spring harvest pasta (my favorite out of the three pastas we tried), fingerling potatoes, and margarita pizza. That was my favorite meal since we tried a bit of everything. Both nights we had Iris as our waitress and she was so attentive and kind. I guess someone noticed that I had a stain on my blouse and she came with an extra napkin and carbonated water to help me blot the stain out easily she was the best waitress we had and all the other workers were amazing too. Our table was always wiped clean and waters always topped off. If you're staying at the Conrad this is a must do! read more

Easily the worst breakfast I have ever had. Weird awkward service. Sophia's Trattoria puts all lot of effort into the presentation. Unfortunately, it's all show. The fresh juice is not fresh squeezed. The hash browns were frozen. Water was requested but never brought. No one came to ask if we needed anything or if the meal was ok. I couldn't eat my omelette. It was just gross. read more
