Claudia

Claudia in Chicago’s River North, designed by Siren Betty Design, honors the architectural charm of its 1880s-era cottage while setting the stage for Chef Trevor Teich’s culinary artistry. The restaurant’s warm textures, layered lighting, and refined details create an atmosphere that feels intimate, inventive, and deeply sensory.

Siren Betty Design envisioned Claudia as a dining experience that feels both timeless and personal. Velvety fabrics, rich woods, and tailored finishes bring warmth to the historic structure, while a neutral palette provides a serene foundation for vibrant artwork inspired by Chef Teich’s visually stunning dishes. The mix of original millwork, polished metals, and contemporary accents bridges the old with the new, evoking a balance of tradition and modernity. Each of the three dining rooms offers its own identity, encouraging guests to experience Claudia from a fresh perspective each time they dine. The result is a space that mirrors the artistry of the menu itself, layered, expressive, and unforgettable.
