There’s nothing like a piping hot pizza. That combination of gooey cheese, savory sauce and crispy crust always hits the spot.

Pizzeria Sophia totally gets it. The new Delray Beach restaurant, designed to be a more sophisticated interpretation of a classic pizza parlor, serves up a plethora of gourmet New York-style pies.

Customization is key there, with tantalizing topping options ranging from figs, chopped clams, truffle oil and goat cheese to pancetta, homemade Toscana tuna and roasted zucchini.

Or, if you’re not feeling creative, choose from 25 varieties, like the Napoli, with tomato sauce, anchovies, capers, Kalamata olives, red chili flakes, oregano and parsley, or the Arthur Avenue, with tomato sauce, shredded mozzarella, Italian sausage, broccoli rabe, parmesan cheese, red chili flakes, Italian parsley and EVOO.

Starters, salads, sandwiches, entrées and desserts round out the menu, and the Sunday Brunch puts a whole new spin on pizza with toppings like fried eggs and smoked salmon. In a nod to the past, the eatery carries Boylan old-fashioned cane soda alongside other sippers like beer, wine and coffee drinks.

Plus, great news for social-distancing diners: Pizzeria Sophia also features a terrace.

Pizzeria Sophia is located at 15065 S. State Road 7, Bay 400, Delray Beach. For more information, call 561-359-2606 or visit pizzeriasophia.com.
