If you haven't been keeping up with Chef Laurent Gras' blog charting the progress of his build out of the old Ambria space, you should. It's a fascinating read that gives readers an intimate perspective of both Gras and the ongoing construction.

Chef Gras sent us (and presumably, other media) an e-mail this afternoon announcing L.2O will open on May 14. Additionally, reservations are now being accepted by calling 773-868-0002. OpenTable is also accepting reservations. L.2O could shape up to be not only one of the most anticipated restaurant openings in town, but a hard reservation to snag. Jump on it.
