You and Bob have done a great job in renovating, restoring, and re-invigorating an old building, turning it into a pleasant surprise that offers ambiance, great food, friendly staff, and a venue that is equipped and suitable for live music. Congratulations.

Paul and I sincerely enjoyed providing dinner music for your 1 year anniversary special dinner, and meeting lots of your diners and friends. We'll be back for more great food soon.

Sonia...I wanted to let you know how much my friend and I enjoyed our experience at your reataurant on Saturday afternoon. The food and surroundings were great and I believe that Megan was our server and she was very pleasant and had a nice personality.

The next time we are in the area...I know where we will eat. Thanks again and I have been spreading the word about Sonia's.

Sincerely...Mick

About Us

Sonia's Restaurant

Well... where do I start.... we've had the time of our life doing this project.  Let me start from the beginning.

We purchased the building in December of 2005.  A couple of months later, we decided to build a pizzeria-cafe.  We took almost 2 years to complete this project as we did most of the work ourselves.  We took our time because we wanted this to be a very unique place.  We picked up marine decor from different places between Renfrew & Nova Scotia. 

The building was in very rough shape when we bought it and by doing all this work, we feel that we saved a piece of history in the Pontiac area.  This building has been around for over 100 years.... well... the most part of the building.  The fire of 1914 took most of the structure leaving only the foundation original.

The building has had many faces in the past.  It's been a general store, theatre, post office and now a restaurant.

If you know of any information about this building or it's past, we would love to hear from you... pictures would also be great !!
