Restaurants
Rock Bottom Brewery has open a sister restaurant RB Grille in River North featuring steaks and seafood. It is set up like a pub ,sporting walnut finishes and linen tablecloths topped with butcher paper. The new place might have a different feel from the original, but the amazing beer is still the same.
Love BBQ? The new Logan Square Brand BBQ Market might be for you. This BYOB spot is not your typical BBQ joint – the chalkboard menus hanging on the rusty orange-colored walls include the regular BBQ options as well as fancier fare such as pulled duck and pork belly confit.
