Sopraffina Marketcaffe

I've had their breakfast and coffee a few times, and in short, they suck.  No flavor, over priced, and small quantity.

On the other hand, I think they rock for lunch!  Overall, they are higher priced than your regular sandwich, soup, etc restaurant, but for the most part, they are delicious!  I haven't tried their salad yet but I heard several great things.  I tried their pizzas couple of times few years ago, and it was good, and it would have been better for another $3-5 cheaper.   My crush with with them are the sandwiches which I totally enjoy, and I like it how you can order half instead of a whole sandwich.  Their antipasti are also great

During the warmer months they set a few tables outside towards the lower level of the AON Center, which is nice.

Lasagna, pizza, sandwiches are all good just a little on the pricier side.

Despite living in Chicago for 25 years, I had never felt compelled to visit Sopraffina until a friend insisted I try it with her.  So I did.  I learn quickly.  Never again.

I ordered one of their panini and a cup of soup (cheddar broccoli).  The soup managed to have no flavor whatsoever, despite lots of calories; truly a waste.

The real disappointment was the panino.  A panino is essentially a GRILLED cheese sandwich, usually with other ingredients added in.   What I was served had never seen a grill, and since it was tepid rather than cold, I'm guessing it was microwaved VERY briefly.  ICK!  

Wasted money, calories and time.  How do they stay in business?
