Gregg Horan is the founder — and namesake — behind The Greggory, and owner and managing partner of Hearth Hospitality. A sharp, good-humored force in Chicago’s dining scene, Horan’s journey took him from wild shifts at Cubby Bear in Wrigleyville to the polished halls of Gibson’s, where he helped the restaurant evolve into one of the world’s premier restaurant groups. Now, he brings his expertise to his own venture in South Barrington’s Arboretum, where rustic tavern fare meets steakhouse precision. He joins us in the studio to talk about scaling service without sacrificing soul, navigating celebrity tables, building a restaurant that reflects both his name (whether or not it’s spelled the same way) and his ethos — and so much more!
