Skokie

Westfield Old Orchard to Welcome New Series of Stores and Restaurants

The establishments are set to open in Skokie's shopping center throughout the year

Nine new retailers and eateries are slated to make their debut in Westfield Old Orchard this year.

The collection includes a mix of projects — some of which are open already — that are gearing up to broaden the range of Skokie’s shopping center, organizers announced Tuesday. On top of the additions, the center will reopen its patios for outdoor seating in the coming months. 

"These new retail and restaurant additions are key in engaging our loyal Old Orchard shoppers,” Old Orchard general manager Serge Khalimsky said in a statement. “We are thrilled to welcome our new partners. The center is reinvesting in customer amenities, overall ambiance and upgrades to infrastructure. As a result, the shopping center will outpace the competition, welcome a whole new generation of customers and continue to deliver the jobs and revenues Skokie needs to thrive."

The following is a roster of the latest establishments: 

Alo Yoga

Alo Yoga produces performance-engineered athletic attire and gear, from leggings and sweatshirts to mats and beauty products for men and women. The Skokie storefront, which will open this spring, will be the yoga and lifestyle brand’s first location in Illinois. 

Bar Siena 

The West Loop restaurant is branching out to its first suburban location early this summer, bringing with it a menu that pays homage to various regions of Italy. Bar Siena plans to build two patios for outdoor seating.

Capital Grille

The fine-dining steakhouse is scheduled to break ground in Skokie by the end of the year. With establishments throughout the country, this will be the restaurant’s fifth front in Illinois.

The fast-casual pizza joint, which is open already, dishes out scratch-made dough, fresh-cut toppings and in-house creations of several sauces. Options for dine in and takeout are available.
