Sophia's Deli

Stepping into Sophia's Deli, located intriguingly in a hospital environment, one might not expect a culinary delight. However, this eatery shatters all preconceptions, serving up a steak and cheese sandwich that can only be described as a masterpiece of comfort food.

The sandwich itself was a testament to simplicity done right. Encased within a wheat sub, it was generously laden with succulent steak and a lavish amount of cheese, melting together in a symphony of flavors. Each bite was a harmonious blend of tender meat and gooey cheese, making it a hearty and satisfying meal.

Accompanying the sandwich was a cup of coffee, a perfect foil to the rich flavors of the meal. The total cost, a modest $12, felt like a bargain for such quality, especially considering the usual fare one might expect at a hospital deli.

Beyond the food, Sophia's Deli offered an ambiance that added to the overall experience. The environment was not only visually appealing but also had an inviting aroma that set the stage for the meal. The service was lovely, with staff members exuding warmth and efficiency, ensuring a pleasant and swift dining experience.

Sophia’s Deli stands as a beacon of quality and comfort, a surprising find in a setting where one might least expect a memorable meal. It's a reminder that great food can be found in the most unexpected places, offering a respite and a touch of normalcy in an otherwise clinical environment. For those seeking a delicious, filling meal at a reasonable price, Sophia’s Deli is undoubtedly a go-to spot.

Great “Mom and Pop” sandwich shop. Nice selection on the menu. Friendly staff and reasonable prices too. If you are looking for a nice lunch or even breakfast stop, this is a great choice. Love supporting local, small business!!

Hidden gem. Wonderful little deli hidden away from plain sight. Very friendly people who work here put together some great food. I had the smoked turkey sub and it was delicious. Great pricing too.

Nice dining area with tables and booths. Very reasonably priced, friendly staff, serves Starbucks coffee. Offers a full breakfast as well as a hot meal lunch, soup, and a variety of make-to-order sandwiches. The crowd gets busy around noon, but the line moves quickly as they are well-staffed.

Great and delicious little mom and pop deli!

Sofia's Deli in Alexandria is a gem in a sea of office buildings and INOVA hospital on Walker Lane. The food is made fresh while you wait or call ahead. Daily specials, fresh salads, cold juices, soda fountain, chips and ice cream. Clean, pleasant environment, good open seating area for COVID distance safety. Monday - Friday breakfast and lunch.
