Excellent hidden gem. Multi-Cultural foods - Mexican, Vietnamese, Indian, Healthy Salad Shop, Bagel and Smoothie, and a beer bar dive. Very welcoming, fun, hip. Easy in and out. Foods are amazing and something for everyone. Midday expect the Mexican Roach Coach aka Food Truck to serve up delicious tacos. Do not get all wound up with the name 'roach coach' - we use this for any and all food trucks. Also, great place to cool down in summer. Parking is challenging - worth walking a few blocks to build appetite.

I came here for a quick lunch before a conference I was attending started. The place was recommended to me by a peer. It’s a small food hall/stall type place. These seem to be popping up more and more around the country. I walked around taking in all the stalls. There’s a good variety and many appetites could be happy here. I opted for the pizza place as they had a half pizza and salad lunch special. The pizza was spot on delicious. The flavor of the margarita was intense and vibrant. However, the Caesar salad was rather lacking. Idk if it was the dressing or maybe the lettuce wasn’t fresh enough or what. But I didn’t finish it. Before leaving, I snagged a cappuccino from the coffee spot there. It was good and the appropriate size but not as good as the one I had around the block at Voltaire. Overall, I do recommend this spot for casual groups and would come back again.

It's quite a nice place to grab some delicious food and a beer. Suitable for larger groups having a drink or two.

Great food mart with pizza, sushi, Indian, cuban, mexican, and vietnamese all under one roof and a great bar to boot. The hardest part is choosing which yummy dish to enjoy. Seating isnt the most comfortable, and most dishes are served in carry out trays...so not the most environmentally friendly.

There are at least 6 international food options, 1 bar top with bottled spirits (I didn’t see beer), and a dessert/coffee shop. I ate at the Mexican place which was tasty but pricey. $21 for a Torta with a side of Rice & Beans is a bit much. I’d go back to try the other places.

I'm always a fan of a high quality food court and even more excited when I randomly find one. In this case, I was looking for a decent Banh mi and found a place that offered that and more. SoFA market is not that far from the convention center and was a nice change of pace from the local side down restaurants around. I'm not sure how common it was for it to be pretty quiet and not busy but it really helped make the experience better. There was quite a bit of seating in the back as well as outdoor siting in both the back and the front. While some of the shops were not open when we went, there was still a decent selection and this place allowed all of us to get something different. This was a bit smaller than some of the food courts I've been to but since it wasn't busy, I actually liked it quite a bit. There was a wide variety of food options and I'll give a shout out to the options at Vietnoms and Habana Cuba. I really wish I could try more but there is always my next visit downtown!

My wife had a very good salad with lemon grass chicken. I chose the vermicelli bowl with vegetables, lemon grass chicken, and a spring roll. The egg roll was cold but the overall bowl was still satisfying. Service was prompt and efficient but unfortunately not as friendly as one would like. We ate our food at the adjacent FountainHead bar, enabling us to have draft beer with our meal. Overall a pleasant and affordable quick meal.

We love South First Arts (SoFA Market) District. This is a really quaint food hall with a variety of small "pop-up" restaurants: sandwiches, coffee, ice cream, Vietnamese, pizza, vegan, poke, Cuban, a bar, and plenty of seating, including outside at the back of the restaurant. We ate at Pizzeta 408 and ordered a prosciutto and spinach pizza- delicious. We could not finish this and the 3 of us shared it. We also ordered the cubanos (sandwich) from Havana Cuba. The owner used to have a full restaurant, but she closed it and now is located in SoFA Market. The cubano was the best dish we ordered in the food hall. We also ordered ahi poke bowl, poke and chips, and watermelon juice at Hawaiian Poke Bowl. I really liked the poke. There are several tvs- great place to watch sports. We are thinking about making this food hall as one of our regular eats. So much to choose from.
