BUFFALO, NY — Sophia's Restaurant will reopen at its new location at 715 Military Road on Wednesday, after being closed for two months.

"It's what I always dreamed my restaurant would look like," said Sam Doherty, owner of Sophia's.

The 41-year-old restaurant closed back in August to be able to prepare for the new location in the old Catch 22 bar.

The new restaurant can serve 130 people in the wintertime and come summer with the patio it will serve over 200.

"It's the same kind of food quality, just better amenities. We've upgraded a little bit, so I'm excited to see everybody's response," said Doherty.

This restaurant holds a special place for many in Western New York and Doherty is excited to see his patrons once again.

Patrons can enjoy the food they love at the soft opening on Wednesday at 7 a.m.
