Chicago police said that at about 3:30 a.m., the male driver of the GMC Yukon was attempting to make a left turn when he swerved into the front of the Chicago Oyster House at Cullerton and Indiana.
No one was hurt but the crash caused extensive damage.
"I actually got a call from a tenant of mine from upstairs saying there was a car in the restaurant," said the owner of the restaurant. "I just rushed over, there was a bunch of squad cars and I see this big SUV in the middle of my dining room."
No one was inside the restaurant at the time.
It's not yet clear if any citations were issued.
