Chicago's restaurant industry was on the rebound and hopeful about the holidays before the omicron variant killed business.

A group of restaurant owners with theRestaurants Coalition is calling on the government to allocate $48 billion more in restaurant grants by Friday, Feb. 11 to help them stay afloat.

Romanelli, coordinator of both the Chicago Restaurants Coalition and the U.S. Restaurants Coalition, said that 101,000 restaurants in the U.S. received some of the $29 billion originally available as part of the Restaurant Revitalization Fund . Still, he said 177,000 restaurants in the U.S. applied, but received nothing.

"We are the canary in the minefield. If we as restauranteurs in hospitality, if we aren’t successful, then very little else will be," said DeFranco.– was also denied RRF money and fears he will have to resort to more layoffs if additional funding is not made available.

No. Stand up to unconstitutional mask mandates and vax passports.

screw a bailout, let them have to rebuild and start over like the rest of us. ppl wouldn't need restaurant anyway if they took the time to learn and cook for themselves. home cooked meals are cheaper, healthier, and taste better than the over price stuff you buy from a stranger.

Politics is killing restaurants not omicron.

Fulton Market restaurants call for more federal dollarsJanuary is already tough in the restaurant industry, and some Chicago restaurants are saying more help from the federal government is urgently needed. Or they can just lift the ridiculous restrictions. And let people live their lives. Screw the woke Chicago restaurants, they had a chance to push back and chose to destroy lives and become sheep living on the public dole. Or they can call the Mayor’s office and beg to have mandates lifted or move the business to the suburbs.
