"I love many of the pastries and baked goods from Sofra. Quite delicious. The tea, coffee, and hot chocolate are great. However the portions for the price you pay is ridiculous. For a $6-7 cup of hot chocolate it’s not even filled to the top. Also, I would appreciate a comfortable laid back cafe style atmosphere where one can sit alone and do work on their laptop, however there is no internet service. So it does not really have that cafe feel which I personally don’t enjoy."

"Went there to have breakfast. Parking was little tricky to find as all road parking were for residents only on weekdays and fee parking places reserved for bakery were filled. We got lucky and got 1 space soon but if you are planning to visit on weekdays, I suggest to find out parking first. We had coffee, chicken wrap, Cilbir , croissant with peppers. Coffee was great, loved the croissant with pepper, it was new, different and tasty. We love tatte bakery and this was a good change for us on similar taste."

"Sofra is a wonderful café and restaurant in Allston that specializes in a wide array of delicious Mediterranean dishes. Their menu is extensive, offering everything from vibrant salads and hearty sandwiches to flavorful traditional plates that showcase the best of Mediterranean cuisine. They also have an impressive selection of freshly baked goods, tempting sweets, and light snacks, making it a perfect spot for any time of day. The café itself is clean, thoughtfully designed, and has a warm, inviting atmosphere that encourages you to linger. The staff are always friendly and attentive, adding a personal touch that makes each visit special. Whether you’re stopping by for a leisurely meal or just grabbing a refreshing drink, Sofra has quickly become one of my favorite places in the area."

"I've wanted to try for months and finally made it out- so sad to be disappointed as I love Mediterranean food. The restaurant has the vibe of a Panera bread. Service was fine. Pricing was pretty crazy considering how little food you get. I'm sure the quality of the ingredients is good, but ill prepared. Chicken was extremely chewy in shawarma... I think there was supposed to be other things in it but there wasn't? Wrap was so burnt it literally broke apart. Sauce was on the outside of the wrap in just the middle?? Unfortunately won't be going back despite the hype"

"Sofra is one of my favorites in Boston. I’d always go to the one in Cambridge but when I heard they were opening one in Lower Allston. It genuinely made my week. The energy in this location is great. It’s bigger, open layout with more seating. Sofra is going to do it every time for me. Consistent, fresh and delicious food and drinks. I’d go everyday if I could."
