    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Saturday brunch here is packed. It was super loud, but I liked all the plants hanging from the ceiling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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.

    Green Goddess Vegetable Salad with Grilled Chicken and Side of Fries
    Whitney P.

    Ordered Door Dash from Beatrix, and I was obsessed with this salad. It was such a unique combination of snap peas, asparagus, green apple, and avocado, topped with pistachios, coconut, and crispy quinoa, all tossed in a tangy green curry dressing!! The grilled chicken was perfect with it, and I loved the crispy crunchy fries!

    Enchiladas

    The Brussels sprouts appetizer was inscribe. Highly recommend. Also loved the gluten free options at this restaurant. The Parmesan crusted chicken with lemon sauce I would also recommend.

    Greek Yogurt w/ Berries & Granola

    We came in for breakfast at around 7:00 am. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The smell of pastries as you walk in the door was intoxicating![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated in a cozy corner table, and I got the mango orange pineapple juice, which was so refreshing! Hubby got a cold brew that he enjoyed as well. For entrees, I got the yogurt and granola bowl and hubby got a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. Both were super tasty! Our waitress was attentive as well.

    Will return. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fake hanging plants; friendly and warm service; open kitchen; elegant water glasses and napkins (I think they're synthetic); earthy Barista tableware.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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 -:) [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bathrooms are in the hotel lobby; it has an ATM.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Beatrix is a mini-chain of all-day restaurants, coffeehouses, and markets in the Chicago area.

    Mushroom & Quinoa Burger
    Victoria M.

    Prompt service! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here with a group of six for lunch during a weekday.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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.

    This breakfast was so good! I had the lavender honey latte and it was amazing. The avocado toast was delicious. The pancakes were amazing... I could go on. Great service and great food. The restaurant itself was not very stroller friendly. I wish a staff member would have just told us to go through the hotel next door with the stroller, but we didn't realize it connected until we struggled our way through. One guy looked at my husband and literally said "good luck" without budging. (This was just a customer not a staff member) but it was so wild to see that kind of interaction!! Anyway, just some extra compassion to the parents who want to enjoy a nice breakfast would go a long way, but food wise we would recommend and would go back.

    Hello, Rod Stewart!
    Lisa C.

    Ordered a cheeseburger to go (my bf was in the hospital upstairs and I was going to eat with him in his room). Wait wasn't long for the food. Packaged well but the burger was so juicy it kind of soaked the bottom bun completely. I would go back and eat in person as it was delicious. Also they really nailed the decor for me as a fan of Prince and Rod Stewart!

    Cappuccino

    Walked past window signage about happy hour, now candidly I had always viewed Beatrix as a breakfast/brunch spot (which they are), but I was craving a burger and was about to go elsewhere for it but curiousity got me! $12 for a burger with fries in River North almost sounds too good to be real, but I'm happy to report it's a real thing! Monday-Friday 4p-6p in the bar. Now the big secret is out: Go! My waitress was Maddie, she was a sweetheart and quite bubbly, she kept checking to see if I needed anything else, and above all asked about allergies at the onset. Thank you!!!! The vibe was cozy, casual and modern. Really busy and now I understand why:) The burger was cooked perfectly, garnished with grilled onions, shredded lettuce and aoli. The fries were tasty and thankfully not salty. Food took a while to come out but arrived fresh so the cuppuccino was a nice hold-over. Beatrix is also part of LettuceEats group so xou can get points or pay tabs with points if you are part of their rewards program. I'm definitely coming back! Great experience all in all, the only area for improvement is the hostess who ignored me standing there until I interrupted her scrolling her phone then eventually just sat myself down and borrowed a menu from the table next to me.

    Menu
    Ashley P.

    My friends and I made a quick stop into Beatrix for some drinks and apps. Since the menu isn't super broad, we decided to stick with appetizers and they definitely did the job. The spicy tuna crispy rice was the star of the show. It was incredibly fresh with the perfect crunch. The whipped feta was also a surprising favorite, especially with the honey on top which added a really nice touch. The crackers it was served with wouldn't have been my first choice, but it was still really delicious overall. Great spot if you're looking to grab a few drinks and share some tasty apps.

    Happy

    Thought this place was fine. Just nothing particular special . It's on the first floor of a hotel. Next door is Ema which is honestly much more interesting. This place is just ok brunch food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's noisy and bustling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a coffee bar you can get pastries and takeout coffee. I went to dine alone and was told open seating at the bar. Service was very fast and attentive. Food was solid. Go here to get coffee or a hot breakfast without hassle.

    Hash Browns
    J E.

    While staying in town nearby I came here for breakfast... I chose this place because the reviews I saw were all great and once I got there, I understood why! Service was very helpful, friendly, a nice! The menu for breakfast is very good and they have a very popular and amazing coffee bar with lots of pastry options too. I chose their Bacon, Egg, & Cheddar Sandwich and asked for hash browns with it and for those to be extra crispy. Starting with their regular coffee - it was great! Then the food came out relatively quickly and looked amazing! The egg was PERFECTLY (ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY!) cooked! The sandwich came together and tasted amazing... I especially loved the bites of freshly sliced jalapeño and the arugula in the sandwich too!! The has browns were made the way I asked and tasted sooo good! Overall, I would definitely recommend giving them a try and I can see why the reviews were so good! My visit was very nice.

    Turkey Smashburger
    Rahima J.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes and inside here is super cute, from the sit down area all the way to the cafe/bakery ordering counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food is a bit on the pricier side and the food doesn't have anything too different or too much flavor. The service was really fast and good - just an average place in river north in my opinion. Nothing wrong with that!

Unfortunately Machine was not open, which is downstairs from this place, so we went here. Usually there is a bouncer outside, covering both places, but no one was at the door so me and The Queen walked upstairs. The bouncer was upstairs and saw us come in, so he asked for ID. He explained that everyone gets card before they come in, which is not a issue for me. The overall vibe, for me, was definitely a frat hangout vibe. There are arcade games all over the place and cutesy names for beers and cocktails, like the Froot Loops (vodka, coriander honey, oat milk, shochu, saline, milk carton, and froot loops). Man I do not do cocktails and this is the reason why. There is too much going on in that glass for me to deal with. Prices for cocktails range from $14-$15. BFF #1 got a vodka soda for $13, but looking at the size of the glass, it was on the small side. BFF #1 said it was on the weak side. I was happy to hear that there was prosecco, so I got that. The Doctor showed up and got a beer. The selection of beers was limited from what I could see on the wall, maybe there was a list someone else behind the bar. The bartender was a really sweet, she was all smiles and kept calling me baby, which was so funny to me. I tipped her well because she was great on them pours of prosecco. We did not do food as we were heading to Club Lago for dinner and I didn't realize that they had food until I checked into Yelp and saw the online menu. The Queen actually went to a DJ set here with Roosevelt, I believe, and said it was a good event. Not a place I would normally hang out in, but I can see the appeal for folks in their 20s as I would definitely say outside of The Queen, the three of us were the oldest folks in there. Lots of people taking Instagram photos and posing or making short videos with those ring lights. I imagine it can get super loud when it is busy, but that is a vibe for some folks. I would say if that is your thing, this is the place for you.

We ordered a flight of whiskey sours, which contained whiskeys from Japan, Vietnam, and Wisconsin. I also was able to order an amaretto sour, which they made with freshly hand beaten egg whites, which was a nice cherry on the top. As far as the whiskey flights go, I think the best one was the Vietnam flight because it had a slightly lemongrass twang and was a little bit lighter than the other two. The heaviest one was the Wisconsin which came with a little bit of a bite at the end, but it still wasn't bad if you're trying to blackout on a $15 budget. I would definitely come back with a larger group this seems like a great place, but is a little bit loud- so if you be prepared to yell or wear earplugs. The bathroom took my a second to find, which should have been intuitive considering it was on the opposite end of where you come in. I blame the lighting as things are already pretty hard to find in the dark, but eventually I made it there-Pat myself on the back.

The 1st that plans ahead and gets to places early. And the 2nd that is there for a good time but always gets everywhere late. Those of us that wanted to come early and not worry decided that we wanted to go to a restaurant close by to wait for our tour time and that's how we found Ema. As soon as we walk inside we see how beautiful and modern the interior looks. They had a lot of seating available and we got a nice table by the window with a view We wanted to eat light before the tour so we shared a bunch of small plates. We ordered the mushroom escargot, lemon Caesar, crispy potatoes, a couple orders of hummus and some chicken kebabs. That mushroom escargot was one of my favorite things I ate during the entire Chicago trip. The mushrooms were creamy and rich. It tasted umami, bright from the lemon, slightly spicy from the Calabrian breadcrumbs, and paired perfectly with some warm pita bread on the side. The hummus was smooth and well seasoned. The lemon caesar was fresh and fairly standard. The crispy potatoes were perfectly textured and were soft and pillowy on the inside. As long as they sat on the table they never lost their crisp. The chicken kebabs were tenderly, juicy and garlicky. We were all putting together our perfect bite combinations with the pita bread. Everything we ordered I would actually order again. Though may want to try a different salad next time since the Caesar was pretty simple. Regardless, still no real complaints with the food Our server was charismatic and funny. He had a great attitude and entertained us throughout the meal. Everything came out promptly as well so we made it out and could take our time walking to the riverboats. Lucky for our friends the tour said they'd be docked for a few minutes after our scheduled start time to set everything up. As 3 minutes after our start time we see group 2 sprinting up from a couple blocks away Overall Ema was consistent, flavorful and reliable. Not a bad price point either for what you get. I'd definitely recommend and come back

Medium rare - got rare one 2/3 of the steak. Medium rare - medium well on one half and medium the other half. But we accepted it since it was the closest to what was ordered. 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.
