Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises is excited to announce Booth One (1301 N. State Parkway), a classic Chicago restaurant being re-introduced in the heart of the Gold Coast neighborhood from founder Rich Melman. Drawing inspiration from the legendary restaurant at the former Ambassador East Hotel, Booth One will be a modern American restaurant with a vibrant all day dining scene.

What’s in a Name?
The iconic restaurant featured one of the most famous booths in restaurant history, with the original Booth One being synonymous with celebrity and iconic dignitaries. In its heyday, it was the most sought after booth in the country; a regular spot you could find legends and luminaries like Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Sammy Davis Jr., Bette Davis, Bill Murray, Phil Collins, Oprah, Eddie Murphy, John Belushi, Mick Jagger and many, many more.

With Melman’s return to the space, guests can expect a dining experience at the new Booth One that celebrates fun, social dining with modern interpretations of classical dishes and ever-changing daily specials.

Booth One is open for dinner daily, with breakfast, lunch and weekend brunch coming soon, making for an all day affair for hotel guests and local Chicagoans alike.
