EvenFlow Music & Spirits is already starting renovation work for the interior of the building that once was home to the restaurant known for its cuisine and its address: 302 West.

The new, music venue is scheduled to be open this summer, with a focus on live entertainment.

"EvenFlow Music & Spirits will showcase some of the most popular live music acts in the Chicago-land area," owners Michael Knuth and Nick Mercadante said in a press release issued Thursday.

Knuth and Mercadante says the venue is inspired by many live music scenes across the country, in cities such as Chicago, Nashville and New Orleans.

EvenFlow Music & Spirits will provide music acts from every genre, past and present, including rock, jazz, and blues. There will be something for all musical tastes, including live-band karaoke and gospel brunches.

When there is not a live band on stage, expect to see recorded live performances from some of the most well-known performers in the music industry on our high-definition flat screens placed around the bar.

Blending the elements of the historical exterior with a modern interior design, this three-level venue will include a bar spanning the length of the main floor, a lofted area overlooking a full stage, and an intimate lounge below the main level. The cocktail menu will boast competitively-priced libations with local brews, handcrafted cocktails and classic recipes.

Diners should expect American fare with a twist.

“We are so appreciative of the support we’ve received from the people of Geneva,” says owner Michael Knuth. “From spending time in Geneva, we know that there are a lot of music fans in town. We want to create a new place for them to enjoy amazing live music right in the heart of the suburbs.”
