Chef Lee Wolen and Chicago-based Boka Restaurant Group announced Tuesday that they will open an upscale establishment serving steak and seafood at the Vinoy Resort & Golf Club in downtown St. Petersburg. Wolen earned a Michelin star at Boka and said St. Pete “holds a special place in my heart” in a prepared statement. Elliott Aster, named after the Florida wildflower and Vinoy developer Gene Elliott, will occupy 10,000 square feet indoors and 4,000 square feet outdoors in the former Marchand’s Bar & Grill space.
The restaurant will open in early 2025.
