The Concept

The Montclair is our two level Chicago destination. Upstairs, an upscale modern American restaurant that feels warm, seductive, polished, and alive with the energy of a true night out. Elevated American cooking is familiar at first glance but delivers unexpected execution and flavors guests talk about for weeks, set against layered lighting, rich materials, and a glamorous bar at the center of the room. Built around martini culture, strong cocktails, and dinner to late night energy, The Montclair is the restaurant guests see, while Understudy, the hidden cocktail room downstairs, is the room they discover.
