A mother and daughter are opening Café on the Grove, a high-end breakfast and lunch spot, in the location of the former Gus' Diner in Rolling Meadows. Susan Luisi and Dena Maldonado have signed a six-year lease for the storefront and plan to invest $500,000 in build-out costs.
Susan Luisi and Dena Maldonado have inked a six-year lease for the 2,948-square-foot storefront at 2160 Plum Grove Road. It's where Gus Diones closed his popular restaurant a year ago after 14 years in business.
To help defray costs, they got their request for a city restaurant incentive approved Tuesday night by the city council. Under the program, they're entitled to a refund of up to $5,000 in building fees, a portion of food and beverage taxes , and a facade and interior grant of up to $10,000 -- which the owners say will cover costs of signage and an etched glass sliding partition for a private room.
Luisi and Maldonado are owners of the Schaumburg location of The Goddard School, an early childhood day care and school.
