"Owner and pitmaster Jared Leonard has been quietly smoking quality barbecue on North Side over the past seven years. The meats are rubbed with a secret blend of seasonings and slow-cooked over wood-burning fire. The restaurant also offers BBQ 101 classes to help aspiring chefs become seasoned masters. A second location in Hyde park opened in 2017." - Jeffy Mai

Spiaggia

Italian restaurant · Gold Coast

"We’ve made the difficult decision not to re-open Spiaggia and Café Spiaggia. We were very much looking forward to welcoming back our family and guests. Unfortunately, we were unsuccessful in our efforts to restructure our lease, which was necessary to reflect the realities of operating a restaurant in an office building, post-pandemic. It’s been an incredible journey, and we are beyond proud of, and grateful for, 37 remarkable years. From the moment we envisioned the restaurants, our passion has been to elevate fine dining Italian cuisine. The endless number of special occasions, the most passionate staff and the amazing talent still delighting guests around the country, will remind us that Spiaggia and Café Spiaggia will live forever."
