Sogo's

Post by NCSue »

Just wondering if anyone has eaten at Sogo's and what your opinion is. I have always wanted to try this restaurant - but somehow we never fit it in!

I'm a big fan of Sogos. It is very much no frills but the food is very good and reasonably priced. Opportunities to try authentic food like curried goat, good veggie plate. Our kids insist we go every year.

A very nice family runs it and someone told me he used to be a chef or some sort of cook at Caneel. Anyways, we have always left satisfied.

We love Sogos and go at least twice on each trip. Hubby loves the curried goat, and gets it every time we eat there. I discovered a shrimp dish with tomatoes and peppers last year that is great (I think its called Shrimp Creole). I also like their chicken dishes. You get rice and several side dishes, so there is plenty to eat. Its authentic Caribbean food and the nice lady there is from Dominica. We had an interesting chat with her about growing up there, since we had visited Dominica. The restaurant is not upscale at all, but its ok to sit on the porch. We often get carry-out and eat at the villa. I highly recommend it.

We recommend it and often try to get there twice too. Love the veggie side dishes. Drinks are good sized for the price :D They're always very nice to us too. Hope you make it there!

If you didn't have it here's a copy of their menu courtesy of St. John Spice.

Mrs. Sutton always recommends it when we go. This year, we will definitely eat once or twice!

We had a wonderful lunch there, last trip, and will probably eat there several times, next trip. Ihad the curried goat and it was wonderful! Blaine LOVED the big juicy cheeseburger and crunchy fries that he got. Great prices, and very, very nice people who chat and are just delightful!
