Irving Park Gets Active
A few updates, aligned along Irving Park Road:
• Fornello Trattoria, 1011 W. Irving Park, will be featured on the Food Network's "Rachael Ray's Tasty Travels" on April 18. (Which, judging from the Yelp reviews, should give you an idea of Ray's variable level of taste.)
• A new Indian place, Bombay Grill, is scheduled to open April 14 just north of Irving Park on Sheridan, next door to the Holiday Club.
• The old Biasetti's Steakhouse (notable in later years mainly for having been reviewed by Ira Glass in the Reader) closed last year, and its replacement, Cordis Brothers Supper Club, 1625 W. Irving Park, plans to open "mid-April" according to its website. Rumor has it the new restaurant remains in the Biasetti's family — it's supposedly run by nephews of the old owners. Look for a "Wisconsin supper club mixed with 1930s-40s" vibe, which sounds suspiciously like Lettuce Entertain You's Wildfire. Stay tuned.
