Shakshouka
Bryan T.

Busy Wednesday breakfast hour we stopped in at Beatrix. The restaurant was busy but staff seemed on top of all tables and no tables looked ignored or annoyed My friends had pancakes which looked great, I had the shakshouka. Ive seen this made several times on TV and even considered making it but hadn't yet - needless to say i"d never tasted it Regardless the shakshouka was savory , the tomato sauce was rich and all the middle eastern spices were present. No criticism here as the dish tasted great and I finished the "FULL Portion"

Light & Fluffy Lemon Pancakes

We had a nice experience at Beatrix in Chicago! The atmosphere was lovely, the service was great, and everything made for a really enjoyable visit. A great place to enjoy good food and spend time with friends or family. Definitely worth visiting!

I had two very different experiences at Beatrix on Clark Street. I first visited for dinner with coworkers, and dinner was great. Based on that experience, I was happy to return with my partner for breakfast. Unfortunately, breakfast was mediocre. We shared a breakfast sandwich and hash browns. My partner ordered a spicy Bloody Mary, which arrived with essentially no spice. I had a pumpkin spice latte, and surprisingly, it was pretty good considering I am not normally a pumpkin spice person. Nothing was terrible, but the breakfast food did not match the quality of my earlier dinner or the to go pastries they have available. I would gladly return for dinner, but I would probably choose another spot for breakfast or grab a pastry to go.

A Wonderful Egg White Omelet

I just wanted to add a photo. I've been here twice for the same meal! Definitely worth a visit.

Green Chili & Chicken Enchiladas
Steven H.

Good food with plenty of menu variety despite it being a single page. I enjoyed my enchiladas. The salsa it came with was just the right amount of spicy. I had a joy (coconut+chocolate) cookie from their bakery case ($2 after 8pm) that was also good. Sitting at the bar is a bit awkward as it's not full height. There is a step down so the bartender can't see if your water or other drink is low. Points for trying but they don't have local TV channels for basic sports watching. It's not that type of place but should be a baseline anywhere if a TV is present. They open early and have a variety of seating options and a solid looking coffee bar if you want to work from there.

I was craving a standard breakfast spot and enjoyed this place on our last day in Chicago. The lemon blueberry pancakes was so fluffy soft and delicious. The brown sugar bacon was superb as well as their soft buttery hash browns. Great place to start the morning

Beatrix was a lovely place to visit! They had so many pastries, and the place was busy on even a Tuesday. I tried their tiramisu latte with oat milk and it was delicious creamy and perfectly sweet. I was able to grab a spot at the bar and the service was lovely. A great place to grab a pastry, chat with locals, and try some amazing coffee, I'd definitely recommend!

Superfood oatmeal and Pesto & Egg White Wrap
Kasey G.

Cute brunch spot! The location we visited is inside the Aloft Hotel, which makes it super convenient if you're staying there (great idea on their part). They also have a cute pastry and coffee bar, the ham and cheese croissant looked amazing. I also learned they have three locations around town. The brunch menu has something for everyone, from healthy options like superfood oatmeal to heartier dishes like chimichurri steak and eggs. I ordered the egg white pesto wrap, and it was exactly what I was looking for healthy, filling, and packed with flavor from the pesto and tomatoes. A special shoutout to our server, Maddie, who was amazing and made our brunch even better. And happy birthday to my Leo sister!

Saturday brunch here is packed. It was super loud, but I liked all the plants hanging from the ceiling. 7/10. Service was fine. Nothing standout, but I appreciated our server warning us the café was backed up on drinks. Both the food and drinks took a while to come out. 7/10. The Iced Banana Joe (1/10) was way too bitter for me and needed a lot more sweetness (I think it's made of cold brew). I couldn't even finish it. The Iced Dulce de Leche Latte (4/10) had a unique flavor, but it just wasn't my type of latte. The Bacon, Egg & Cheddar Sandwich (7/10) was solid, just nothing memorable. The Hot Honey Fried Chicken Sandwich (7/10) had great flavor, but the chicken was soggy. The fries were surprisingly good, especially since I'm usually not a fries person. The Golden Hash Brown (4/10) was also disappointing. It was bland, didn't have much of a crispy crust, and completely fell apart after the first few bites. Overall, I'd still come back... just for the avocado toast.

Buffalo Cauliflower
Nicolette H.

Food was really good. We ended up going just in time for HH. Service was okay but it is a holiday so there was some confusion on what was happening Ambiance is really good. Warm lighting and spacious where conversation isn't overpowering

oat latte
Sarah C.

nestled at the bottom of aloft hotel, beatrix serves up great breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cafe fare! they have lots of seating and seem to be always busy -- weekends can be hours of waiting! we grabbed an oat latte from the cafe bar alongside the lil breakfast sandwich and lil breakfast burrito. the latte is great, their beans are more smokey and roasted than others. the breakfast burrito was just ok, we liked the sandwich a lot better

Irene E.

Will return. Fake hanging plants; friendly and warm service; open kitchen; elegant water glasses and napkins (I think they're synthetic); earthy Barista tableware. We've - Greek yogurt - Shakshouka Both are good, especially the yogurt: the banana is awesome. Shakshouka has a lot of kale! The pita is soft and fresh, I ate it all with olive oil -:) Bathrooms are in the hotel lobby; it has an ATM. Beatrix is a mini-chain of all-day restaurants, coffeehouses, and markets in the Chicago area.

Mushroom & Quinoa Burger
Victoria M.

Prompt service! Came here with a group of six for lunch during a weekday. We ordered the truffle appetizer along with our entrées and we were out of here in exactly an hour. I ordered the quinoa mushroom burger, which was delicious. My only complaint is that the fries were not as warm or crispy as I prefer.

The atmosphere…read moreis perfect for a night out -- dim lighting, fun neon signs, great music, a beautiful bar, and plenty of cute photo opportunities throughout the restaurant. The food was also a hit. The fried chicken nachos were easily one of my favorites and something I would order again. We also tried the huge brunch board, which came loaded with pancakes, waffles, chicken, eggs, potatoes, bacon, fruit and more. It says it feeds up to three people, but the portions were VERY generous and could easily be shared with a group. We also had the smothered potatoes and several cocktails, and everything we tried was good. The drinks were well made and fit the whole Brunch After Dark vibe perfectly. Overall, I love the idea of being able to have a full brunch experience without having to squeeze it into Saturday or Sunday afternoon.

Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing dining experience. The sausage and bacon were…read moreterrible--they tasted as if they had been microwaved rather than freshly prepared. The food overall was simply not good. What made the experience even worse was trying to eat while literally fighting off bees. We were just trying to enjoy our meal and each other's company, but it was nearly impossible to relax and enjoy ourselves with bees constantly around our table. We asked twice if the windows could be closed and received very little help from our waitress. Yet once the party of 11 seated next to us arrived and made the same request, the windows were finally closed. That was extremely frustrating considering we had already asked more than once. I will say the host did her best, and I appreciated her efforts. However, the waitress was not very helpful at all. She was more concerned with the next group coming in then whatbwe were experiencing. And given the poor quality of the food, the bee situation, and the fact that our repeated request was essentially ignored until another party complained, our meal should have been comped--or at the very least, some type of adjustment should have been offered. Instead, we paid $175.40 for a meal and an experience we couldn't even enjoy. I will not be returning.

Everyone enjoyed their drinks and they had a fun menu by the chef and we ordered off of both menus. Drinks were reasonably priced. Bartenders were great and explained what was going on.

The atmosphere was fantastic, our server struck the perfect balance between attentive and giving us space, and both cocktails I tried were creative and delicious. The truffle fries were pretty mediocre, but even that wouldn't have stopped me from giving Arbella five stars. What did? Discovering afterward that a 5% "service charge" had been added to the bill. I really dislike this growing practice of restaurants and bars adding percentage-based fees rather than simply pricing their menu accordingly, and it was enough to cost an otherwise excellent experience two stars. Ambiance: 5/5 Arbella absolutely nails the atmosphere. I came here on a date, and it was a great choice for that. The music was good, the lighting and decor created a really intimate vibe, and our booth was comfortable enough that we could settle in and actually enjoy the evening. There was energy in the room without it being so loud or overwhelming that we couldn't have a conversation. Even the menu design and presentation fit the experience. If you're looking for somewhere that feels elevated, interesting, and still comfortable for a date, Arbella definitely checks those boxes. Service: 5/5 Our server was fantastic. This was one of those rare occasions where someone found exactly the right balance between being attentive and not constantly interrupting our date. We never felt forgotten about, but we also had plenty of space to enjoy ourselves and talk. I especially appreciated the recommendations. Whenever we had a question or wanted guidance on what to order, our server was knowledgeable and genuinely helpful rather than simply pushing something on the menu. Excellent service from beginning to end. Drinks & Food: 4/5 The cocktails were easily the highlight. I tried the First You Take The Graham and the Trankilo Melon, and both were really good while also being different enough from what I would normally order to make the experience more memorable. This is exactly what I want from a cocktail bar: drinks that make me curious enough to try something new and then actually deliver. The truffle fries, however, were mid at best. They weren't terrible, but compared with how impressive everything else felt, they were forgettable. I'd absolutely come back for the cocktails, but I'd choose something different to eat next time. About That 5% Service Charge... This is unfortunately where Arbella lost me, and ultimately why I cannot give the experience five stars. I didn't notice until reviewing my bill afterward that a 5% service charge had been added. I strongly dislike this increasingly common practice of restaurants and bars adding percentage-based fees to the bill. If operating costs have increased, I would much rather an establishment incorporate those costs transparently into its menu prices so I know what I'm agreeing to pay when I order. Calling it a "service charge" also creates unnecessary confusion, particularly when customers are still expected to decide what to tip their server. At a cocktail-focused establishment, where you may be ordering multiple drinks throughout an evening rather than paying attention to every line of the check, I think fees like this need to be extremely clear and prominent before ordering, not something a customer discovers afterward. For me, it feels like an extra charge for simply using the establishment in exactly the way it was intended to be used. Overall: 4/5 The frustrating part is that without the service charge, this probably would have been a five-star review. Arbella gave us a genuinely great date night: beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, creative cocktails, and a space I otherwise would have happily recommended and returned to. Instead, that 5% fee left a sour final impression on what had been an excellent evening. It may seem small, but transparency around pricing matters to me. Arbella did so much right that I want to come back, but the service charge is significant enough that I would think twice before doing so.

I want to preface my review with the positives, Londyn was our server & was truly so kind, thorough, and friendly. The restaurant itself is clean & all tables have clear views of the TVs on game days. Now for the room for improvement- the food was very underwhelming. Being from the Chicago area previously, I regularly advocate for the Chicago food scene, and this unfortunately did not meet those standards. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, buffalo cauliflower, wings, and sesame ginger salad: -Brussel sprouts: tasted like they weren't seasoned just air fried and drenched in balsamic dressing -Buffalo cauliflower: soggy, unseasoned, runny buffalo sauce -Wings: PERFECTLY CRISPY, but no flavor (we ordered lemon pepper & buffalo) -Sesame ginger salad: sloppy mix of vegetables tossed in an overly sweet sauce with no sesame or ginger flavor in sight If you're not going to eat, this is probably a great spot, but from a food standpoint, there is room for improvement.

Very complex flavors that's sweet, a little sour, creamy, and with a savory edge from the browning. We sat outside on a pleasant evening and it was a very nice patio. The wait staff were very attentive as well so no issues there. They went the extra mile of checking on food allergy issues for me multiple times. My main issue is that the appetizer - the halloumi - was the best dish. The brussels sprouts that came out were charred crisp on the outside and creamy on the insides - which is ideal - except that the flavor was very one-note. If you eat one, then every other one on the plate is pretty much just that again. The problem is that it lacked that feeling of "moreism" that you need if you're going to go with a very simple flavor profile. They tasted fine, but nothing about these made me want to just keep eating them. We also had the crispy mushrooms which likewise had a very similar issue of being one-note. This was notably better than the sprouts though because they came was a very tasty tzatziki sauce that saved the dish, but the sauce shouldn't be the star of a dish like this.

Very hip and trendy, with a great atmosphere and a two-story layout. The upstairs area looked like it would be perfect for larger groups or private gatherings. Unfortunately, the service didn't quite match the atmosphere. We were a party of six and arrived before the big dinner rush, so it wasn't particularly busy when we ordered. Our server was very quiet and not especially engaging. I was seated toward the end of the table, and rather than walking over to take my order or answer questions, she spoke to me from across the table. I personally enjoy being able to have a conversation with my server, especially when I have questions about gluten-free options, and it was awkward trying to communicate across five other people. Our food took approximately 35 minutes to arrive after ordering, which seemed excessive considering how quiet the restaurant was when we placed our order. Interestingly, the staff assisting with clearing tables and refilling water were much friendlier and more personable than our actual server. The GF Fried chicken was good, crispy but lacked flavor. I did not care for the GF waffles, and the syrup was underwhelming. Others enjoyed their meal, the fish and chips and short ribs were well liked. One thing worth mentioning: Yardbird automatically adds a 20% gratuity for parties of six. We all had separate checks, and when paying through the QR code, the payment system also prompted for an additional tip. If you're not paying attention, it would be easy to tip twice, so definitely double-check before submitting payment. The restaurant is on the pricier side, although the portions are generous. Overall, I loved the atmosphere and appreciated having gluten-free options, but the service and overall experience fell a little short of expectations. I'm glad we tried it, but I'm not sure it's somewhere I'd go out of my way to visit again.

We told the server and he didn't listen to us right away and had to repeat several to him that the temp of two steaks were incorrect not just one and he walked away without acknowledgement. The manager came to check the steaks and apologized. When we got the new steak, the whole thing was rare and we had to send it back again to get it to medium rare. Our server didn't come by at all to check and make sure everything was good. We can tell he was purposely avoiding our table. Horrible service all around. Manager came around one time after the mishaps but took him about 20 min. Didn't comp us anything on the bill. Bad service, food and management all around.
