About this business
Floor-to-ceiling glass doors line the street side of Sonsie and remain open during the summer, making this a great spot for Newbury Street people-watching. The chic atmosphere suits the hipsters who visit in the evening, but afternoons are quiet and relaxed. The chef serves a tasty mix of American and Italian cuisines. The staff is particularly attentive, and they take pride in their mixed drinks behind the bar. Patrons can enjoy lunch or dinner or just drinks or coffee and dessert.

Good food but slow service – My friend and I decided to have brunch at Sonsie on Saturday - The scantily clad hostess, teetering on her high heels, guided us to a table in the main dining room. I've eaten at Sonsie twice, and I have only good things to say about the food. However, a two-hour lunch on a sunny Saturday afternoon in a dark dining area wasn't what I had in mind. Especially when the majority of the time is spent waiting for your long finished salad plates to be removed, while your drink sits empty with no offer o... read more
Thank you for Thanksgiving – I have never written a review before but I had to after last night. My girlfriend and I took her parents to Sonsie for Thanksgiving dinner because I had to work today and could not travel. It was the first time we have not had a homecooked meal and we were very uncomfortable going to a restaurant. This is why I am writting. When we walked into Sonsie we were greeted by an amazing hostess who joked with my sorta father-in-law and who seemed genuinely happy to be there working on a holiday. Our ser... read more
Great food, poor service – I went to Sonsie with two other people. Seating was no problem and the food came out quickly. My gnocchi was amazing. I was quite full, and wanted to get it wrapped up since I couldn't finish it. We asked our waitress to wrap it up, and she threw it out instead. After, we waited 45 minutes for our check, even saying "excuse me" to people for it and getting ignored. In conclusion, the food is great, but the service is awful.
The famous and trendy may eat here, but well-executed dishes go beyond fashionable fare. – Club kids, Euro jet-setters and the genuinely famous head to the foot of Newbury Street to drink and dine among the masses. In warm weather, people-watching is in its prime, as the front windows open wide. For serious lounging, head downstairs to the swanky, intensely romantic wine bar. Sonsie's kitchen turns out surprisingly solid New American fare; starters include lemon garlic skillet-steamed mussels and salad with sheep's milk Came... read more
Tons of fun – I was surprised at how good the food was since the place was jam packed and so trendy. It would have been impossible to get in without reservations. It's a nice ambience albeit a little dark. Had the swordfish - best ever! But it's really crowed and noisy so probably a better place to go with friends than on a date.
Looking forward to returning – I went here this afternoon with my friend and we had a lovely time. The staff was very friendly and efficent and the food was excellent. We started with a crispy goat cheese salad which was the perfect size for sharing. The Pizza Margarita was very flavorful, but unfortunatly they brought it out at the same time as the salad so it got a little cold. We finished with a strawberry filo dessert which was amazing. The espresso was very fine quality too. It is a great place to people watch and enjoy... read more
Try Harder – My friend and I went for drinks and dinner on Wednesday night and were so turned off by the pretentiousness, we left. The hostess was incredibley rude and would not seat us because we had someone (who wasn't even eating) joining us later. It just seemed like they were trying SO hard, we had to laugh. If you are looking for a warm, classy place to eat, Sonsie is NOT it.
Nice Experience – I recently tried this place for the first time with a group of friends. We had heard rave reviews and so we decided "why not try it". We had a good time. The service was excellent. We sat at the bar for a bit and it wasn't too long a wait to get a table. The drinks are great. The menu choice is good. There's alot to choose from. The crowd was a good mix too. All in all it was an enjoyable evening. Everyone should try this place ...it's worth it!!
Super – We went to this quaint, AWESOME place for our two close friends' birthday celebration (my sister and a friend) and we had a BLAST!!! First of all, the service from the hostess was very warm and inviting and even the waiter as well as the bus boy were so professional and friendly. Our waiter was very handsome (by the way) and was very generous(especially to us ladies). The best part of the night, each and every one at our table (Six of us) enjoyed our food soooo much, we couldn't speak during dinner as we were enjoyin... read more
