EVERYWHERE—The weather is supposed to be nice this weekend, so get ready for some al fresco drinking and dining. Eater compiled a list of great spots to sit out on the patio and enjoy the day.

LINCOLN PARK—This week, the dining community received a shock when the acclaimed Kith & Kin announced it was closing for good. Eater found out it was due to a lack of business and money issues.

LAKEVIEW—Taverna 750 is scheduled to open in early June, bringing upscale Italian small plates, gourmet pizza and housemade limoncello to Boystown.

LOGAN SQUARE—The crew behind Webster's Wine Bar are set to open a new spot in June and it now has a name: Smith.
