The Space
This is a plug-and-play restaurant, not a shell. A proven location with every piece of food-service infrastructure already in place — vented, equipped, and beautifully finished. You're paying for a concept to move in, not a buildout to start.

The Space
Built-Out. Ventilated. Ready.
3,128 SF of second-generation restaurant space delivered turnkey — commercial kitchen, venting, and grease trap in place, with an existing dining and kitchen layout that's plug-and-play ready. The infrastructure that drives buildout cost and timeline — Type I hood, grease trap, gas, drain lines — is already there. An operator with a proven model can be operational in weeks, not the 3–5 months a vanilla shell demands.

The Room
Gallery Feel, Skylights, Brick & Beam.
Unique skylights, brick, and wood beams in the dining area give the room a gallery-quality character — the kind of memorable environment that turns first-time guests into regulars and earns feature photography. The previous Michelin Bib Gourmand operator built its identity in this room. The bones are proven; the concept is yours.

The Frontage
Chicago Avenue Visibility.
Strong street presence and signage on Chicago Avenue — a high-traffic corridor with consistent daytime and evening activity. Close proximity to Ukrainian Village, East Village, and downtown puts you in one of Chicago's most durable dining markets, with a customer base that supports local food businesses and follows new concepts.
