"Set to open in early December at 23 W. Harris Avenue in La Grange, this two-level restaurant aims to give western suburbanites a Chicago-style dining option without the commute. Owned by Dan and Caitlin Spain—Dan tracing his hospitality roots to a family-run South Side bar—the spot will feel upscale yet family friendly, offering an approachable lunch menu for parents with children and a more sophisticated contemporary-American dinner crafted by chef Eddie Jobin, who previously worked at Parker’s American Restaurant & Bar in Downers Grove. The 13,000-square-foot buildout features a private event room and modern reception spaces, a second-floor outdoor bar with fire pits and heat lamps for colder months, and a 20-seat U-shaped bar on the first floor." - Ashok Selvam
