Just curious...
La Bella moved from their main locale on Marion into their South Blvd. storefront just around the corner that existed primarily for private parties in the past. It is very much still in existence.

Thanks for the link!
Interesting that the menu is heavy on the seafood side (as well as steak offerings) to the extent that the main 'Menu' features their Oyster offerings (a link takes you to the regular menu). Also interesting is that their new restaurant at Randolph and DesPlaines is supposed to feature seafood offerings. While it appeared that the construction at Randolph and DesPlaines had stalled the past few weeks there has been some renewed activity.
It would appear that most of the forum has followed Chef Gaetano DiBenedetto to his new restaurant without much mention (or review) of the old and renamed La Bella Bistecca.
Does not look like the new restaurant is going to open after all.
Construction has ground to a halt and there is a for sale sign up on the corner of the building."Very good... but not my favorite." ~ Johnny Depp as Roux the Gypsy in Chocolat
