Sonya Restaurant
Your All-Day Aegean Bistro
Unfortunately, Sonya is now closed!
We have loved serving you over the past year but unfortunately, we couldn’t survive the current climate.
We wish that we could have made this work as we have loved serving our community.
Thank you all for the support you have given us!
