Kinzie Chophouse


I redesigned the website for Kinzie Chophouse, a longstanding independently owned Chicago steakhouse celebrating over three decades in River North. Originally opened in 1991, the restaurant is known for blending the legacy of a classic Chicago chophouse with warm Mediterranean hospitality.

The redesign was created in celebration of the restaurant’s milestone anniversary, modernizing the digital experience while preserving the timeless, elevated atmosphere Kinzie has become known for. The goal was to create a site that felt sophisticated, editorial, and rooted in Chicago steakhouse culture - while also showcasing the restaurant’s evolving brand identity, culinary storytelling, and hospitality experience.
