Punk rock was partially a reaction to vacuous mainstream pop culture, but it’s merely a coincidence that the follow-up to a restaurant devoted to Saved by the Bell is a pop-up with a Riot Fest theme. The same team behind Saved by the Max—a re-creation of the diner from the popular 90s sitcom—opens Riot Feast for a three-month run in the same Wicker Park space beginning tomorrow.
The restaurant is open Wednesday through Sunday with two ticketed seatings at 6 and 8 PM both for the communal dining areas and reserved tables. On Fridays and Saturdays starting at 10 PM, Riot Feast advertises that it’ll “transform into a carnival speakeasy” and offer a late-night bar menu.
