As you recall, 4-Star Restaurant Group, owners of Crosby’s Kitchen are opening a new restaurant in the former Wrigleyville Dental space called Ella Elli.
Construction has now started in the building behind Crosby’s Kitchen, and 4-Star is looking to open an adult restaurant and full bar with French and Italian cuisine in early 2017.

From our earlier blog post:
4-Star Restaurant Group, parent company of Crosby’s Kitchen, Smoke Daddy, Frasca’s Pizzeria and D.O.C. Wine Bar (and others) is expanding in Chicago’s Southport Corridor, and here is the latest update:
- Justin’s Space. The former Justin’s Bar & Grill space is currently gutted, and 4-Star is hoping to get in there shortly to start the construction process. The space will feature full windows from the rendering below, along with an expanded kitchen area. The name will be Tuco & Blondie, and they are looking to open by fall. It will be a Tex-Mex themed restaurant along with brunch on the weekends, killer margaritas and a full tequila bar. They will be keeping the outdoor area, albeit a bit smaller.
- Wrigleyville Dental Space The building behind Crosby’s Kitchen will be re-developed and is planning to open in 2017 as an adult restaurant and full bar with French and Italian cuisine. The name of the new restaurant will be Ella Elli, and will be open for dinner only.
