To begin our monthly roundup of restaurant openings and closings (and closings, with a question mark implied), some final news items from November:

- As Gut Check learned when we spoke with co-owner Jennifer Heath a few weeks ago, the new Edwardsville, Illinois, restaurant Cleveland-Heath opened before November's end. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner daily.

- BrickTop's Restaurant is now open at Plaza Frontenac. BrickTop's is a small, higher-end chain based in the south and southeast (Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville). The dinner menu for the BrickTop's in Frontenac is available on the chain's website (link PDF).

The complete list of openings and closings is available after the jump. As always, please let us know what we've missed.
