"Wherewithall, 3472 N. Elston Avenue, aimed to give Avondale an affordable and dependable prix fixe meal, casually introducing customers to fine dining. Opened in July 2019, it initially earned positive attention. The pandemic and dining restrictions halted its momentum. A sewer line collapse in May caused further damage, with repairs needed for the pipe system. These challenges, along with the pandemic, led to the decision not to reopen." - Ashok Selvam
