800° - New Ghost Kitchen Open in Chicago

Ghost Kitchens are popping up ALL over the U.S! These facilities offer professional food preparation, but no dine-in areas, meaning food is only available for pickup and delivery. So you can enjoy your food at home!

800° restaurant partnered with Epic Kitchens last month to open the brand’s first ghost kitchen in Chicago. 800° is known for their unique and innovative approach to the art of cooking with fire. The popular Chef-Driven restaurant has more than 10 national and international locations and offers a diverse menu of signature fire-roasted pizzas, salads, bowls, sandwiches, and more!!! Delivery options include Uber Eats, Postmates, Doordash, and Grubhub.

Chef Anthony Carron founded 800° in Los Angeles back in 2011. Three-time NBA champion Dwayne Wade serves as a Global Partner for the brand. The companies philosophy starts with using the purest ingredients like made from scratch dough, fresh produce, and artisan quality meats and cheeses. The ingredients are sourced from top purveyors, then fire roasted to impart a unique, subtle, smoky taste. The varied menu items features both clean- eating and indulgent options with something to please the palates of everyone.
