Sofi Restaurant

Italian Restaurant She opened Girarrosto over 70 years ago and today; it is still a hub for many artists, movie stars and fashion designers.

Born in Milan to culinary great Cesarina, a Cordon Bleu of Chaine des Rotisseurs in Paris, Maurizio inherited his passion for cooking and learned his skills under the watchful eye of his mother. After, years of running Girarrosto, as the front man, Maurizio decided to move to NYC in 1987 to open “Bice” with his cousin. He then went on to work for another famed NYC restaurant “Da Silvano”. After ye

ars of being the front man in Milan and New York’s most prestigious restaurants, Maurizio realized that he wanted to pursue his passions as a chef and subsequently opened his own Maurizio Trattoria in NYC’s Greenwich Village to great critical acclaim and success. Along with many prestigious articles and reviews, Maurizio Trattoria was also voted one of the best restaurants in New York by Forbes magazine from 2004 to 2007. Maurizio Trattoria’s regular clientele included famous A-list movie stars, fashion designers, Ceo’s, as well as neighborhood notables. Maurizio is very excited to have finally landed in Chicago’s prestigious Printers Row to open his very own Sofi Restaurant, where he can once again focus his passions on cooking. Sofi Restaurant is an upscale Milanese Trattoria simply decorated with lithographs from Carroll Tyson and table tops that are handmade from two hundred year old wood.

W**E. DINE. SOFI.

A little sizzle from the kitchen.
A beautiful plate headed to the table.
W**e poured just when you need it.
And dinner outside while Chicago still gives us these warm summer nights.

This is how we do summer at Sofi Italian.

Come for the food. Stay for the w**e. Linger a little longer under the Printer’s Row city lights.

Because some nights aren’t meant to be rushed.

Meet us outside at Sofi.

UNDRESS THE BOARD.

A little salty. A little sweet.
And maybe… a little naughty.

At Sofi Italian, the evening doesn’t have to begin with the main course.

Start with our Misto Salumi, a tempting spread of Italian cold cuts, pecorino, dried figs, berries and crisp croutons. Add a glass of w**e, steal a bite from across the table, and suddenly sharing becomes the best part of dinner.

Because some things are simply better when you take your time.

Come hungry. Stay tempted.

The Bear = kitchen panic, while Sofi = kitchen zen.

Same busy kitchen.
Same passion.
Very different energy.

While everyone else is yelling “YES, CHEF!”…
our chefs are quietly saying,
“Pass the basil, per favore.”

Turns out incredible Italian food doesn’t always need chaos—it just needs experience, teamwork, and a little amore.

🎥 Sound on for the joke…
🍷 Stay for the pasta.

Every bite is light, flavorful, and made with the simple, fresh ingredients that make Italian cuisine unforgettable. Whether you’re enjoying dinner on our beautiful patio or relaxing inside our cozy dining room, the Salmon Piccata is the perfect choice for any occasion.
