Urbanspace

"The newest of these three food halls, Urbanspace feels like an upgraded, sleeker version of your typical mall food court, especially if you’re sitting on the leather barstools at their cocktail bar, The Peregrine Club. With 12 different food stalls, there’s a wide selection of cuisines and dishes with spots like Sushi Dokku for some maki, Keadkao for some Thai, or Polombia for a Colombian-Polish fusion.

"Urbanspace Washington is a food hall where Susan Thompson opened a post of her West Loop flagship, Sushi Dokku." - Naomi Waxman

"This food hall in the Loop is perfect for a quick bite if you want to avoid all the chain restaurants in the area. Urbanspace feels like an upgraded version of your typical mall food court—they have a cocktail bar and 13 food vendors with a wide selection of cuisines. For a taste of the Philippines, grab some lumpia and longanisa with garlic rice at Isla Filipino. If you’re looking for a new addition to your lunch sandwich rotation, Happy Lobster has a buttery lobster roll with giardiniera and spicy mayo. And if you just moved here from New York, you can even find a slice of cheese pizza you won’t complain about at Roberta's." - John Ringor

"After opening its first Chicago food hall in 2021 in the Loop, Urbanspace continues to work on opening its second food hall, this time inside the city’s tallest skyscraper. On the second level, there will be 12,000 square feet for vendors, including Roberta’s Pizza, to serve downtown workers and tourists. This project banks on life returning to some semblance of normalcy for travelers and office workers. Given that, Urbanspace is planning a late spring opening (pending supply chain issues)." - Ashok Selvam

"The 12,000-square-foot Loop location, known as Urbanspace Washington, was originally slated to open in early 2020, the first of two Urbanspace locations planned for Chicago. Highlights include the return of Isla Pilipina, the Lincoln Square Filipino restaurant that closed in 2020 after 17 years; a new Chicago location of Evanston’s Edzo’s Burger Shop; and a stall for food truck Happy Lobster." - Ashok Selvam
