The Waterfront Cafe - Chicago

Really good food just a lot of bees lol! Will definitely be back for the lobster roll and the views!

Great Location, Terrific View, and Wonderful View We loved this location. We sat by the water and enjoyed a great lunch. The seafood salad, the tofu salad, and the chicken nachos were wonderful. A wide variety of meat plant-based options. Great variety of drinks. Beautiful location. We will be back.

I enjoyed my culinary experience there. the live music added to the ambiente. the bark, the bacon bourbon sandwich and the blackened cajun shrimp roll were delicious!? Finally, the close to the lake offers an incredible view. I would recommend this place to others.

This is a beautiful location, a lovely beach terraced spot that is taken care of well. It’s so great to sit on the beach and have a drink, it’s evocative of the beginning of a vacation. But we spent $80.00 on two drinks in plastic cups, a crab sandwich with a freezing cold bun which was just “OK”, and small container of ceviche. All in paper containers. Nachos that were only chips with crumbles of chicken and parsley. This place needs to up their food game by a lot. It felt like we got robbed, food vs value. You are paying for the experience but it’s a shame….put some butter on that bun and stick it under the broiler for a minute! Put something more on the nachos. It’s self serve too and they ask you to put money in the tip jar. It’s always a bit of a rude feeling there like you are bothering them, not following their many rules or some weird thing is said to you such as “hurry they want to close the kitchen” never “thank you for coming” They seem to be doing you a favor to let you be there, is the impression always. Reverb to customer service 101. I just always feel sort of taken for granted.

Love this place. So close to the lake. Its nice to eat dinner here watching the lake and/or sunset. We had the crab rolls, beed bacon sandwich, the nachos, and vodka lemonade.
