Lettuce Entertain You cares greatly about the health and safety of its employees and guests. In the last few weeks, we have closely monitored developments in the current COVID-19 outbreak and have initiated enhanced protocols to reduce opportunities for the spread of this virus in all of our restaurants and offices. Our actions are focused on guidance from the CDC along with state and local resources, and we continue to rely on their leadership. We are now facing a situation in which our actions can make a difference, not only to the health and safety of our employees and guests but also to our communities.
The Holiday Bonus cards expired as of April 15, and they can no longer be used for carryout at open restaurants during this time.
However, upon the reopening of our restaurants for full-service dining, the cards will be eligible for an additional 30 days of redemption. At that time, you will have four weeks to use the cards for dine in or carryout. As soon as we get clarity on when we can reopen, we will send a communication with the 30 day extension dates for each market.
Also, please keep in mind that the Holiday Bonus cards can be used any year between January 2 - April 15. If you are still unable to use the cards during the 30 day extension, please hang onto them and you can use them again next year, January 2 - April 15, 2021.
Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
Please keep in mind that the Holiday Bonus cards can be used any year between January 2nd - April 15th. The Holiday Bonus cards can also be used for carryout up to April 15th at participating restaurants during the government mandated shutdowns.
We hope that this extension gives you more time to use your cards for carryout and dining in once we re-open. We will continue to closely monitor the situation and send a communication when we have confirmed the new dates. Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Many of you have asked how you can support our teams, we have set up a site to collect funds that will benefit our hardworking staff Employee Relief Fund
Based on direction from governmental agencies and as part of our ongoing effort to slow the community transmission of COVID-19, LEYE will temporarily close additional locations. Effective Tuesday, March 17, 2020, all Lettuce locations will close to dine-in guests until we are permitted to re-open by the applicable government authority.
We will reevaluate our options going forward based upon guidance and direction from health and government officials. In the meantime, we strongly encourage everyone to protect themselves and others by continuing to follow CDC guidelines (including social distancing, frequent handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes with a tissue, and staying home if ill) to combat community transmission.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
Lettuce launches second virtual restaurant, with Bon Appetit
Lettuce Entertain You and Bon Appetit magazine are partnering with Grubhub for a new virtual restaurant concept.
Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises is expanding its virtual restaurant offerings for the second consecutive month in a big bet on delivery.
In a partnership announced today, Lettuce and Bon Appetit are teaming with Grubhub to serve Chicago residents with recipes curated from the food magazine. The menu will be available to lunch and dinner for residents of Lincoln Park, Lakeview and River North.
Items will include dishes like cider-braised pork shoulder with butternut squash and short rib skewers with peanut-chile oil and bok choy. The recipes were produced through a collaboration between Bon Appetit and Lettuce. Entrees are priced between $8.95 to $22.95.
Last month, Lettucedebuted its first virtual restaurant with Grubhub,with the concept offering flexible online ordering and delivery. The Chicago-based restaurant group said virtual restaurants allow chefs and owners to react quickly to capitalize on evolving food trends.
“For those times when you just don’t want to cook, we’re making our favorite things to eat right now available for delivery,” Bon Appetit Editor-in-Chief Adam Rapoport said in a release.
Like the other virtual restaurant Lettuce is operating, the food will be prepared at existing Lettuce kitchens at Stratford on the Park in Lincoln Park and another in River North. The menu is expected to change and shift depending on the season and availability of items.
“We’re excited to continue our partnership with Grubhub to offer some of Bon Appetit’s most beloved dishes for delivery in Chicago,” R.J. Melman, president of Lettuce, said in a statement.
