Proper steaks and service - a good combo 8th January 2009

One freezing Saturday afternoon, sales-weary and hungry, we decided to have a look for the Rossopomodoro on the Fulham Road that everyone on TP's been raving about. To our dismay, it was closed until the evening, and Sophie's was one of the nearest (and warmest) options.

Our friendly Aussie waiter was over in a flash and we soon had two glasses of very agreeable house red in front of us. They had a special lunch offer running until 6pm, which was £12.50 for two courses, including a rib-eye steak and fries, so we plumped for that. To start, I had a fantastically American house salad (chopped, mixed with cabbage and thousand island dressing, and served in a wooden bowl) and the Mr. had soup of the day, which was rocket and potato. He wasn't overwhelmed, but I liked it.

On to the steaks. For cheap lunchtime cuts, they were well-cooked and very tasty. I was really pleasantly surprised. The vibe in Sophie's was just right too - not too light, no hurry, and the bar looked as if it had real potential to get busy later on. I liked it here a lot, and will definitely return for dinner sometime.

Still Hoppin... 2nd October 2008

Went there earlier this week for a catch up with a couple of old friends. Whilst overheard conversations around the bar hinted darkly of 'market stresses' and 'credit crunches' the chelsea crowd were determined to enjoy their tuesday evening and the place was as packed as ever.

We got there for around 8pm and, with about a 25 minute wait for a table (no reservations), ordered a bottle of Montepulciano from their well priced wine menu and stood jawing at the bar. Service was fantastic throughout the meal and as soon a table became availiable we were ushered through.

Started with the whitebait special and had a great ribeye for main. Total for the 3 of us with starters, mains, sides (no desert) and 2xbottles of good wine came to about £135.

In summary, Sophies is friendly, warm and and packed with the well-groomed 20-40 year old Chelsea crowd. Not somewhere I'd suggest for a romantic first date, but good for a fun evening out with friends.

Been here on a lot of occassions and recommend it.
- Relaxed but fun and modern atmosphere
- Lively without being off-putting
- Bar is small and gets pretty busy, mainly because...
- There are no reservations, so it is first come first served
- Usually very busy so arrive in plenty of time and when you are not too starving
- Excellent steaks (as the name would suggest) but plenty of other good stuff on the menu.
- The house BBQ sauce is tremendous
