"I saw Sofia’s Kitchen online and also asked someone in the area who said they hadn’t eaten there in awhile but that it used to be good, so we stopped. Sorry we wasted our time on such an unhappy place. I’m deaf and mobility challenged. I read lips to communicate and have a service dog that assists in multiple ways. The staff at Sofia’s wouldn’t lower their masks to explain their arm waving and hostile eyes, and then pointed to the door and waved for us to leave, even with us explaining our situation. Apparently we weren’t welcome because we weren’t wearing a mask as we stepped through the door, though people were sitting without food or masks less than ten feet away from the door. Only the hostile “greeters” were wearing masks. I have never been treated so rudely and with such hostility by a service establishment in my life! They refused us service and pointed out a sign that says “No masks, no service. No debate.” That’s there choice. Mine was to serk lunch elsewhere. I say, “No smiles at Sofia’s Kitchen. No debate.” Honestly, as I glanced around the restaurant I didn’t see even one person smiling though I was.. Surely someone should be enjoying the food enough to have a pleasant smile. No! Seems a good indication that the restaurant had problems. We had no desire to make a scene so quietly left. Want to warn others so they don’t go through this harassment. We were happy to find Los Sombrero (aka El Sombrero) just a few minutes south and across the interstateô overpass. The food and service at Los Sombrero was good and pleasant without any drama. They were very patient and accommodating. A refreshing contrast to Sofia’s! Los Sombrero had a much more authentic New Mexican atmosphere than Sofia’s Kitchen anyway. So, be aware that Sofia’s has a militant attitude and you better not walk in the door with your smile showing. I recommend you look elsewhere."
