Willis Tower’s First Full-Service Restaurant Slated for 2022 Opening
Chicago’s Fifty/50 Group will debut the first full-service restaurant at EQ Office’s Willis Tower, currently undergoing a $500-million renovation. Kindling, a char-house style culinary experience, is slated to open in 2022.
Fifty/50 Group’s latest concept will occupy a two-story space and outdoor terrace at the corner of Franklin St. and Adams St., as part of Catalog, Willis Tower’s dining, retail and entertainment experience.
“For our first full-service restaurant, we sought out prominent restaurant operators in Chicago that reflect Willis’ ethos and would complement our vision,” said David Moore, SVP and portfolio director at EQ Office. “We met and quickly fell in love with Fifty/50’s concept. The name of the restaurant, Kindling, refers to our shared purpose – to kindle new connections and inspire new relationships.”
Fifty/50 Group is one of Chicago’s fastest growing hospitality groups. It owns and operates 14 restaurants and bars across the city.
