" Had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner here and couldn't have asked for a better meal. The turkey was tender and juicy, complemented by homemade cranberry sauce that was the perfect sweetness. I also had the mashed potatoes, which tasted so fresh. The ambiance was cozy, with friendly staff making sure our glasses never went empty. This place has definitely secured a spot on my regular dining rotation. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try this cafe after hearing good things about it. Unfortunately, my experience did not meet expectations. Service was haphazard and it took a while for our orders to be taken. I tried the beef tournedos which was decent but nothing exceptional. The ambiance was quiet, but I felt it could use a bit of liveliness. I might return but I’m not in a rush to do so. " (*Curated Review*)

" This café is the epitome of charm and excellent food! I enjoyed an exquisite dinner here, trying the pike special which was simply divine. Each dish was beautifully plated and tasted incredible. The live music added an extra layer of charm to our evening, and the owners were so friendly and welcoming. It’s places like this that make you appreciate local restaurants and the experience they provide. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Edgewater Beach Cafe for brunch and was blown away! The service was prompt and warm. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the eggs benedict and a seasonal fruit tart, both of which were delightful. The coffee was freshly brewed and strong. The atmosphere was relaxed, making it a lovely place to chat and enjoy our meals. I would highly recommend this spot for brunch or a leisurely dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" Edgewater Beach Cafe is simply fantastic! I stumbled upon this place after moving to the area and decided to try it for a special treat. The French cuisine here genuinely competes with some of the finest dining experiences I have had in Chicago. I started with the French onion soup, which was deliciously cheesy and savory, and then moved on to the filet mignon. It just melted in my mouth. Not to mention the live jazz music made the evening even more special. Definitely a five-star experience from start to finish! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was fortunate enough to dine here for dinner recently, and it was a truly lovely experience. The highlight was undoubtedly the rack of lamb which was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The owner came by to greet us and was genuinely interested in our experience. The ambiance of the café was warm and inviting, making it perfect for a quiet evening out. Can’t wait to come back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Edgewater Beach Cafe while searching for good places to eat near my new home. It did not disappoint! The coziest atmosphere paired with delicious food made for a perfect evening. I tried the chocolate cake for dessert and it was to die for – rich, moist, and an absolute treat. The staff were all friendly, and I felt genuinely welcomed. I would absolutely recommend this cafe to anyone looking for a nice dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)
