Hotel Business EXCLUSIVE: Wind Creek Hospitality Partners With Colicchio Consulting
Colicchio Consulting, which assists hotels and casinos in planning for and securing unique food and beverage experiences, has advised Wind Creek Hospitality on the reimagining of the food and beverage outlets at its Wind Creek Chicago Southland Casino & Resort.
Following an extensive evaluation process led by Colicchio, Wind Creek has selected chef and restaurateur Fabio Viviani to bring a culinary vision to the property. At the heart of this partnership is Alto, Chef Viviani’s signature Italian steakhouse, located on the hotel’s 17th-floor rooftop, which opened in May 2025.
Additional outlets include:
- “Food Bazaar” by Fabio Viviani: A modern reimagination of the traditional casino buffet, Food Bazaar comprises six unique venues offering diverse, chef-driven fast-casual concepts in a relaxed setting. Modeled after top-tier food halls across the country, it’s designed to satisfy a variety of palates with creativity and convenience.
- “Shuck It” Oyster Bar: A lively seafood destination offering freshly shucked oysters, classic gumbo and a wide range of seafood favorites in a festive and approachable environment.
- “The Spot,” an American Diner: Located off the casino floor, this American diner combines grab-and-go convenience with classic American fare.
