Haute South, the sister restaurant of Southerleigh Fine Food & Brewery, is trading The Rim for a new home at Make Ready Market in River North.

Why it matters: The move adds a new restaurant to the growing River North food scene.

State of play: Haute South will close its location at The Rim on Sunday after six years in business.

The Make Ready Market location is expected to open in early December.

The vibe: The restaurant will bring its Texas Gulf Coast-inspired flavors to a more casual food hall setting, with a menu that mixes Southern comfort food with upscale touches.

The menu includes everything from fried chicken and pimento queso to fresh oysters, caviar service and Gulf shrimp.
A full bar will offer daily happy hour specials 4–7pm, including $1.50 oysters and $4 margaritas.

What they're saying: "This move gives us an opportunity to bring the best of Haute South to a more approachable, fast-casual setting while staying true to our Texas Gulf Coast roots," Southerleigh Hospitality Group co-founder Jeff Balfour said in a statement.
