"A longtime River North bar-restaurant that helped pioneer the neighborhood’s rise as an entertainment district, this venue has been a focal point of the partners’ business split and remains in the hands of one co-founder. It has undergone multiple closures and remodels in recent years—most recently shuttered for renovations since January with a planned reopening on August 3—and management acknowledges a prior remodel missed the mark, promising now to restore what patrons expect. Despite turnover elsewhere in the group, the brand and finances are described as strong, and the location will continue operating under the retained owner's stewardship." - Ashok Selvam
