Ever since he launched the Gaztro Wagon food truck, Matt Maroni's fans (some of them, at least) have been hoping he'd establish a brick-and-mortar restaurant as well.

Well, it's happening. Tuesday, Maroni will unveil Morso (340 W. Armitage Ave., 773-880-9280), a dinner and weekend brunch spot on the former site of Terragusto, in concert with Terragusto's former partners (not including Theo Gilbert, who has gone back to tending to his original Terragusto near Wrigley Field).

The menu skips the app-entree designations, breaking down Maroni's dishes into Raw, Veg, Shellfish, Fish, Offal and Game categories. An upstairs, 24-seat lounge will have a separate kitchen and menu and will serve late; on Fridays and Saturdays, the lounge will feature an 11 p.m.-1 a.m. breakfast menu for the hangover-inclined.

Reservations by phone only; search for more details here.

And don't fret about Gaztro Wagon; Maroni, a leader in Chicago's food-truck movement and co-author of Chicago's food truck ordinance (still bottled up in City Council committee) says those wheels will keep turning.
