The Greater Ravenswood Chamber of Commerce, Indivisible Lincoln Square, and the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce are teaming up to spotlight our Latin immigrant-owned restaurants! We believe this is a critical time to support these community members, so we’re inviting neighbors to “dine in solidarity.”
Throughout 2026, GRCC will highlight local immigrant-owned restaurants on our social media and in our weekly newsletter, as well as through strategic partnerships with other community organizations. Our goal is to encourage Chicagoans to explore Ravenswood and enjoy some amazing meals while driving sales to businesses who most need our support.
