After announcing in early January that they would be closed indefinitely, Red Poppy Bistro in Elgin has reopened with a new concept featuring a rotating prix fixe menu of multi-course, curated meals.
Elgin s Red Poppy Bistro reopens after expansion
Chef/owner Matthew Habib reopened the Red Poppy Bistro this week for takeout and the dining room is available if people want to eat in without table service. The restaurant opened in March 2020, just hours before the governor put restrictions on indoor dining, but found a niche as a takeout option downtown and decided to close in December to expand and double their square footage.
