Theory Physical Therapy held its grand opening ribbon-cutting last week in Tinley Park.

The clinic at 7545 W. 159th St. is locally owned by Dena O. Tadros who has almost two decades of physical therapy experience. She said she believes every patient should be treated with the highest quality of care and a continued pursuit of clinical excellence.

Tadros was joined by family, friends and members of the Tinley Park Chamber of Commerce when she cut the ribbon on Oct. 20.

Services offered include orthopedic­s, sports medicine, spine care, women’s health, manual therapy and vestibular.

Hours are 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Thursday, and from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday. Saturday hours are available by appointmen­t.

Stan’s Donuts opens inside Oak Lawn Mariano’s

Almost two years after opening a Stan’s Donuts & Coffee in Orland Park, owner Rich Labriola has brought a second location, of sorts, to the south suburbs.

Stan’s has opened a coffee shop inside of the Mariano’s supermarke­t at 11000 S. Cicero Ave. in Oak Lawn. The full-service shop is the 17th Stan’s location in the Chicago marketplac­e.

It celebrated its grand opening on Saturday.

Additional Stan’s will be opening later this year inside Mariano’s supermarke­ts in Bridgeport, Ravenswood and West Loop in Chicago. Another shop is expected to open next year in the Uptown neighborho­od.

Labriola bought the company from founder Stan Berman, who launched the company in Los Angeles in 1963. Labriola opened his first Chicago location in 2014.

Labriola hails from Blue Island and when he opened the Orland Park location at 15646 S. LaGrange Road he said he hoped it would be the first of many more suburban locations.

“I always wanted to come south,” he said then. “My hope is to eventually have 25-30 Chicagolan­d locations.”

Chuck Lager restaurant opens in Orland Park

Chef Fabio Viviani was on hand Monday and Tuesday for the grand opening of the new Chuck Lager American Tavern restaurant in the former Granite City brew pub at 14035 S. LaGrange Road in Orland Park.

It’s only the fourth Chuck Lager restaurant. Others are in Wilmington, Delaware, Wesley Chapel, Florida, and Barrington, New Jersey. New locations are being eyed in Florida.

Viviani is a chef who was on the “Top Chef ” television show, and he was happy to bring the restaurant to Orland Park.

“We have a lot of friends in Orland Park and we love the area,” he said when plans for the restaurant were approved a year ago. “We have a restaurant with a fun concept. We take the casual dining experience and combine it with well-thought bard food and a fun atmosphere.”

Chuck Lager will eventually be open for brunch, lunch and dinner service, but is starting with dinner service only beginning at 4 p.m. daily. The restaurant is open until 10 p.m. Sunday to Thursday and until 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

To woo the restaurant, village officials signed off on a 21-page agreement that allows, among other things, Chuck Lager to keep 50% of the sales tax for 10 years and a 25% reduction on the permit and related fees.

Pizza Hut moves from Bridgeview to Burbank

Pizza Hut will celebrate the grand opening in its new home at 7929 S. Harlem Ave.

in Burbank.

The restaurant moved recently from its longtime home at 7876 S. Harlem Ave. in Bridgeview.

Store hours are 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and from 11 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday.

The restaurant offers carryout and delivery.
