Nice looking place. Menu is a bit odd with mostly create your own. I like to have creations 🤷♀️ portions are HUGE. Neither of us could finish our breakfast. We should have only gotten one.
Food was okay. If it wasn’t for all the cheese in my scrambled platter I don’t think mine would have had much flavor.
Service was good.
Great location with okay food. We stopped by on a Tuesday morning and were seated outside in 10 minutes. Food was great. However,service could be better for sure. Tables are super small and us being 6 people on 2 small tables was a hustle. Price wise was affordable compared to surrounding restaurants.
4 stars but will be back soon so I will update for sure.
Spent 9 nights in Chicago and was advised by the hotel staff, I would get a good breakfast here, this was an unstatement to say the least.
The food was fantastic, the staff were friendly and polite, I would highly recommend this place for anyone who lives nearby or if you are travelling through the city
We absolutely LOVED our breakfast ! First time here and it won’t be the last. My husband had corned beef hash and eggs, I had steak and eggs. DELISH !!! Our server was spot on, can’t remember her name. Very attentive. Strongly recommend this place for breakfast !
I just want to review how amazing this waffle was. I ordered a side of fruit and turkey sausage as well and just threw everything on the plate because the tables on the patio are so small. But let me tell you about this waffle. Not only is it aesthetically pleasing and not only is cooked so perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. But the taste of it is like candy like with the bite of the crunch . I don't know what they put in this but I have never experienced a waffle like this before. I got the chocolate chip waffle. And it's not overly sweet with the syrup. It was such a wonderful experience. The service is top tier and the food is filling. Would definitely recommend tempo cafe to anyone.
authentic American breakfast restaurant. It has everything your heart desires and in large portions. Super Service
Amazing! This was a short walk from our hotel. We are so happy we came here. The poor man skillet was amazing! The banana nut pancakes tasted like warm banana nut bread so delicious! I can’t wait to come back to Chicago to eat here again!
Absolutely delicious! Simple cafe in the heart of the Gold Coast. I’ve come here several times and the food is always great. Perfect egg skillet and pancakes every time. :). Also very cool Chicago Art.
Lovely restaurant attended by many locals for decades. Service could not be better!
Very nice place for breakfast. Friendly, efficient service and excellent food
