The Social Table to bring women's dinner series to Chicago's Venteux
The Social Table monthly dinner series to host debut Chicago event at Venteux Brasserie, Cafe and Oyster Bar Saturday February 21, 2026.
Venteux is excited to welcome The Social Table, the beloved west suburban women's dinner series to host its first-ever Chicago event in our cafe and main dining room, Saturday February 21, 2026. This milestone marks an expansion for the community-focused dining experience that has captured a collective following of women throughout the western suburbs.
From Suburban Success to Chicago Debut
The Social Table evolved from the popular Bubbly Nights Out, a curated evening experience designed exclusively for women. What began as intimate gatherings has blossomed into a thriving monthly dinner series, thanks to the vision of founders Christina and Nicole, two former teachers whose friendship was forged over a shared passion for exceptional food and urban culture.
Their mission? Creating thoughtfully curated dining experiences that bring together women of all ages and life stages in an atmosphere of connection, celebration, and culinary excellence.

An Expertly Crafted French-Inspired Menu
