Fodor's Expert Review Sophia's Bar & Grill (SBG)

$$$ Piantini Eclectic Fodor's Choice

This formerly old-fashioned and elegant restaurant has morphed into something much more contemporary, but has still retained many of its old-world touches. Each bite is a sensory explosion; a sushi bar complements the grill menu, which offers both fish and foie gras. Prices are surprisingly reasonable for such a classy environment—there are even gourmet burgers. End your meal with a slice of warm guava cheesecake and an aged port. If you want to smoke, you'll have to take a seat on the outdoor terrace. You can join the young and beautiful at the granite bar until 3 am on Friday and Saturday (1 am the rest of the week). Signature cocktails are as attractive as they are heady.

Look for a sign that says simply "SBG".
