    Great local neighborhood Middle Eastern / Fusion restaurant! So many great options to choose from - food or drink! Pretty big restaurant with wine bar next door. Ambiance was definitely a vibe, plus they had a DJ on Saturday night. Service was pretty quick and food came out as ready. Will definitely comeback if I'm ever in town.

    We attended a wedding at this restaurant, and from the moment we walked in, we were amazed. The place settings, decorations, and the entire ambiance were beautiful and calming, with charming touches from lamps ship from Bali, the cabinets were ship from Italy and lanterns in the hallway were form some old hotel in Chicago that closed a while back leading to the bathrooms. The servers were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and excited, providing amazing service from beginning to end. They meticulously cleared tables, replaced dishes, and kept water jars filled. The food was phenomenal, with a delicious array of flavors that kept coming out perfectly timed, ensuring nothing got cold. The hors d'oeuvres were particularly impressive. If I had to choose a venue for a wedding, family gathering, or any celebration, this would be the place. The staff truly know what they're doing, making it a wonderful experience

    I spent a weekend in Chicago on a girls trip and we were looking for somewhere to close our time before our flights. Beatnik caught our eye with their beautiful exterior. We came around 11 am and were easily able to get a table for brunch. Once you step inside you're transported to a beautiful garden with tons of plants and sky light. I wish my house looked like this. Not only was the decor amazing but the food was delicious too. I had the shaksuka which had excellent flavor and a good size. Our server was incredible too, very friendly & able to provide a great wine recommendation. Do not pass this place up for a great time!

    We had a mixup with drink and food prices for happy hour that we unfortunately did not notice until after we paid, however Nicole from the management team went above and beyond to help get us a refund! Great drinks and great atmosphere as well.
