Ditka’s iconic restaurant gets new lease, will stay open another year

Holy grabowski!

Ditka’s iconic eatery in the Gold Coast just got a new lease on life.

“We just got the news and are so excited, said Diana Ditka, wife of da legendary Bears behemoth coach Mike Ditka.

Ditka told Sneed earlier this month that his restaurant would close in December because they couldn’t work out the terms of a new lease with the building’s owners.

“It’s over, it’s done,” he said.

But Diana sang a different tune Tuesday.

“We just got a year extension on our restaurant lease,” she told Sneed.
