BREAKING THE RIGHT RULES

After decades of working in the hospitality industry, I've decided to take on this business and apply a new approach - one that serves those who typically do the serving. My establishments are designed to be a reprieve for industry professionals and food fiends. Deliciously crafted dishes without the pretense, a friendly place to recharge, and a mindful approach to both our environmental and societal impact...coming out of NYC, Miami and LA, now you can find us in Chicago. A Black-owned and operated boutique house, MJB Restaurant Group is committed to serving traditionally overlooked communities through a casual fine dining experience while nurturing the talent that moves neighborhoods.

​

Welcome.

Created with Purpose.

Plated for You.

Through offering a variety of chefs, food enthusiasts, beverage connoisseurs, and other industry experts a space to develop and promote, eat and be, each concept is built on community - our community.
