I wish that I had taken pictures of my food but I devoured it so quickly it didn't have a chance. I've had Turkish cuisine all over and I was so pleased that I found this place. I was a bit apprehensive because I've never heard of it before but my goodness. SO HAPPY I TRIED IT! Delightful chicken and doner kabob! And the owners are lovely! Everything fresh and so tasty. Can't wait to go back. Will make sure to take pictures next time!

This place is an absolute gem. doesn't look like much from outside, but ignore that. Make it a priority to go here. The food was absolutely delicious. Babaganoush was smoky, silky, fresh and bright on perfectly grilled bread. Ordered the mixed grill that had a taste of everything, and loved it all. Everyone from the guy that will only eat steak to the Indian food aficionado will love this place. In a world of awful chain restaurants serving poorly cooked processed junk, we need more places like this. BYOB.

Stopped in for some take-out. I had a chicken kabob sandwich and my companion had a lamb gyro. We both enjoyed a cup of lentil soup. The sandwich was enough for 2 meals and very flavorful. Looking forward to my next visit for some delicious Mediterranean food.

Bristol and the area around it is slowly, but surely, getting some great food. A few years ago Noemy's shows up and now I finally tried Sofra. Go here. Go here right away. As soon as you can find the time go here. When it comes to Mediterranean / Turkish food I'm legitimately questioning if I've ever had any as good as what I just had tonight at Sofra. Every dish was what I wanted it to be. Every part of the cold appetizer platter was perfect. The hummus was the best hummus. The eggplant was addictive. The crushed veggies were delicious. And then my grilled chicken combo came out and it was all awesome. I've been to places with similar cuisine and I've enjoyed it, but I've never really been blown away. I'll get all excited by the sight of meats on long skewers or delicious looking dips only to eat them and think, "Yeah that's pretty good, but I don't think I'd pay for it again." But at Sofra it was like someone finally got things right. It not only looked beautiful, but the food tasted as seasoned as delicious as I'd always wanted this type of cuisine to be. It it a little pricey? Yes. Normally I'm cheap as hell and would write a place off if the food was more than I wanted to pay on a night out, but this food was so good that I already know for a fact I'll be back. It's worth it. If you get the app platter maybe split it with three of four people instead of two. We were stuffed. Go give them your business because we all know the location is a TOUGH one. Only one side of the street can turn in and it's easy not to notice it there as you zoom by on 13. But you should really go there like... today.

My husband is from Istanbul and we live in Seattle, WA. It's so hard to find good Turkish food that isn't frozen from some big company. You get a lot of restaurants out west using pre-made frozen food to pass as their own. It's good but nothing compares to the freshness and flavor of Sofra. This restaurant made everything from scratch and to-order, including the manti. We waited while the owner rolled out the dough and hand made the manti. The food was exceptionally fresh! We started off our meal with Çoban salatası (shepards salad) and bread that my husband told me is typically on every Turkish families dinner table. It was amazing! It wasn't pre-made, the owner was cutting up all the vegetables to order and it was seasoned perfectly! The Adana kebab was flavorful with that little bit of heat it's supposed to have from the peppers and it's accompanied by grilled tomatoes and peppers. The owner was so kind and made my husband feel like he was back in Turkey. It's been awhile since we've been back but this made him feel less homesick. All in all this restaurant was a little hole-in-the-wall with amazing food and great customer service!

Sofra was great again tonight. Love the lamb shish and the hummus. The hummus alone is worth going for. Would be great to take to a party. It would please me, anyway! The pita is delish, too. Perhaps they make it in house. So fresh and hot with grill marks. Yum! And I love the tea. It's all good.

Besides the fact that Sofra doesn't look like much from the outside, we also never see any cars in the lot. I often wonder how this place stays afloat. Nevertheless, we have heard good things about the food from Yelpers and friends so, we decided to give it a go. We came for a 5pm Sunday dinner. There were no other patrons, but I wasn't alarmed since this seemed to be the case in every review. The owner greeted us and sat us at a table off to the side. Turkish music was playing and although a bit loud, it added to to our dining experience. We were immediately presented with a pitcher of ice water, a basket of warm flat bread and a plate of walnuts and cheese. The walnut plate could have a better presentation but that didn't stop up from gobbling it up. We quickly ordered the babaganoush for the bread. It was delicious and had the the right amount of garlic and oil. It was not overpowering and made it easy to finish the entire basket of bread. (Like we needed any help) My husband had the lamb kebab dinner. The lamb was very tender and was grilled and spiced to perfection. I had the Lamb Adana kebabs. Juicy minced lamb with just the right amount of cumin and chili flakes. I was glad to have the cucumber yogurt dipping sauce to cool it a bit. Both platters were served with buttery rice, grilled tomato and a grilled hot pepper. Overall, it was excellent. Portion sizes are just right and everything was reasonably priced. We would definitely go back.
