Sophia's Restaurant is housed in the Fairview Inn, thought to be the most elegant inn in Jackson. I found the restaurant on the Internet when I was looking for a new place for Sunday brunch. No one had ever told me about Sophia's, even though I have asked friends for recommendations of good restaurants, but the reviews were good and none of us had been there, so we decided to take a chance.
We seven are all in agreement. The food was excellent. It had brunch food with a southern flavor, but with no bacon or sausage in sight. The girls loaded up on a waffle smothered in chocolate chips and strawberries, then covered with whipped cream. Next time, I will eat two bowls of gumbo. Wonderful deserts and excellent service made us all very happy.
The Fairview Inn looks like an antebellum mansion with large white columns in front. But this home was built in 1908 for a lumber mogul as his own family home. Over the years, it changed hands and after many additions and renovations it opened as an inn and restaurant. We are delighted to have discovered this charming restaurant. We will definitely return.
