Smoque BBQ, the widely acclaimed barbecue restaurant in Chicago, will debut a steakhouse later this year, not downtown, but out in the neighborhoods.
“The new project is called Smoque Steak,” said chef and partner Barry Sorkin. “It’s a different kind of steakhouse featuring what we think is a unique and really good take on steak.”
The new restaurant, under construction at 3310 N. Elston Ave. in the Avondale neighborhood, is planned to open this fall.
