Hogsalt is not your typical restaurant group. Guests know us for transportive spaces and sumptuous fare, but what we are most proud of is the generosity we extend to our teams. Our service team reimagines hospitality with energy and a sense of fun. Our culinary team makes classic dishes so expertly that you'll remember why they became classics. No matter which of our 20+ restaurants you visit, you'll see we're an organization that makes people — our guests and ourselves — happy. Hogsalt is a Chicago-based restaurant group founded in 2010. Under the leadership of founder, chef, and CEO Brendan Sodikoff, Hogsalt rapidly grew from a single storefront to an ever-expanding ensemble of restaurants employing nearly 1,000 people. Hogsalt's success has come from remixing fine-dining with comfort food to produce superb fare that is classy, unpretentious, and often playful. Hogsalt restaurants are noted for the warmth of their service and are imbued with a subtle but pervasive sense of story-telling, reflecting a belief that dining is as much about sociability as it is the menu.
