Company Description

Showcasing the vibrant essence of Latin cooking, Bar Sofia is a paradise for shared plates and cocktails. Led by celebrated Chef Anthony Walsh, Bar Sofia playfully nods to his family\'s Argentinian heritage as well as the next generation of food lovers, artists and adventurers.

Highlighting fresh and bright flavours, Bar Sofia\'s all-day menu features an array of tasty snacks and small plates including addictive empanadas and colourful salads; along with larger format meat, seafood and vegetable dishes meant for sharing among friends old and new. While much of the menu is Latin inspired, Chef Walsh has thoughtfully incorporated beautiful Atlantic Canadian ingredients such as Nova Scotia mackerel, lamb and salmon, Newfoundland tuna, and P.E.I. beef cheeks.
