Prasino , a restaurant in the Loop, got its City of Chicago food license on August 21, 2026. It is the first of Prasino's everyday cafes, a smaller format from a restaurant group that has operated in the Chicago area for more than 15 years. The group plans more cafes, one on North Aberdeen Street in Fulton Market and one on the Riverwalk in 2027. It opened August 25, 2026. Brand-new spots often run soft-open hours and a short menu at first, so it's worth a quick check before you cross town.

We list a menu and hours only when the business posts them itself. Prasino hasn't put a menu or hours online yet, which is normal for a spot this new. For today's hours, photos, and reviews, check its Google Maps listing . Once the menu is up, this page will carry the highlights; owners can send it through the form below.

How we know

"Licensed" means the City of Chicago issued the business its retail food license. Before that, the Chicago Department of Public Health inspects the space; that license inspection usually lands a couple of weeks ahead. A new spot often opens within days or weeks of its license, and many soft-open first.
