Moon Dance returns to Maple Park

We’re pleased to share the good news that owner George Georgiou recently reopened his Moon Dance Diner and Grill in Maple Park. 

Georgiou closed the diner less than year ago, despite enjoying strong business during weekend hours. The diner simply could not attract steady business during the week, Georgiou told the Kane County Chronicle.

He recently reopened the business, operating it from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, when the diner sees a steady flow of customers. Moon Dance also is open Wednesday nights, when the diner hosts a cruise night from 5 to 8 p.m. Moon Dance is located at 309 Main St., Maple Park. For more information, call 815-827-90063.
