• Fresh, delicious crepes prepared right in front of you.
• Inside can get a little crowded.

“Sofis is just a short walk from Penn Station. There is another location farther down Charles Street, but this one is the most accessible. Also, it located next to The Charles Theater, and is a perfect pre or post movie treat. Sofis is moderately priced with excellent value. Crpes range from $4 to $8, so ordering more than one is affordable. Inside the rectangular shaped restaurant, the walls are splashed with bright colors, and upbeat music plays in the background, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The servers match Sofis funky vibe as well. Everyone is young, hip and friendly, and has an attitude that brings life to the restaurant. Sofis has both indoor and outdoor seating. The inside room includes a long bar against the window lined with black leather chairs. Ive found that this area can get quite cramped when the restaurant fill with people. If the weather is nice, I recommend sitting outside at one of the tables. Its a great place to people watch, too, a slightly creepy but favorite activity of mine. At Sofis, crepes are ordered and paid for at the front counter. Service is speedy and efficient. Ive never waited more than five minutes for a crpe. Even better, the crpes are prepared adjacent to the front counter, so I can watch my meal being made nearly 10 feet in front of me. I always look for this quality in restaurants because I know that I am in fact eating real food! And Sofis definitely passes the test. Ingredients such as tomatoes and avocados are always fresh. Sofis offers two different options on its menu, savory crpes and sweet crpes. Savory crpes are filled with ham, turkey, mozzarella, cheddar or gruyere cheese, mushrooms, and endless other items. Sweet crpes are the ideal dessert, filled with Nutella, cinnamon, caramel and other indulgences. The savory crpes are filling enough to make a meal out of, but dont worry, youll still have room for a sweet crpe. My biggest dilemma at Sofis is choosing a crepe because every one of them sounds delicious (and is!). For savory options, I recommend the Mozzarella, Fresh Basil, Tomato Cracked Pepper and Olive Oil crpe. The combination of flavors mixed together in a warm, soft crpe is quite satisfying. I also like the Ham, Gruyere Cheese and Dijon Mustard crpe, which is simple but flavorful. I do suggest holding the Dijon mustard, which can overpower the gruyere cheese. Orders are flexible and can be modified any way you prefer. For example, my server had no problem withholding the Dijon mustard from my crpe, and even asked if I wanted to add any other fillings to it. Also appealing is the Kevin Bacon, which consists of turkey, bacon, cheese, tomato and 1000 Island dressing. The crpe is named for the actor, Kevin Bacon, who has eaten at Sofis. The Crpe Florentine is also appetizing, containing fresh spinach, mushrooms, gruyere cheese, sunflower seeds and a peppery Parmesan sauce. Next time I go, I want to try to BBQ Shredded Pork and Cheddar Cheese Crpe. After enjoying two savory crepes (I was really hungry on this particular occasion), I tackled the sweet crepes. My favorite is the crpe filled with Nutella, a chocolate hazelnut spread that is mouth wateringly delicious. This Nutella crpe may be simple, but it never disappoints. This time, I tried the Apple Crisp, which contains apples, caramel, and cinnamon with graham crackers crumbs. My apple chunks were a bit mushy, though, distracting me from the cinnamon and caramel flavors. I recommend sharing the Peanut Butter Cup Crpe with a friend, as its too rich to finish alone. The Butterscotch Crpe is another simple, but tasty crpe that wont make you sick to your stomach. The Turtle Crepe combines chocolate, caramel and nuts, and is another smart choice.”
