The key to Indie Cafe’s success is simple cuisine, elegantly prepared. Chef Iggy Waranon's dishes feature a dynamic combination of savory Thai and simple Japanese cuisine, with an emphasis on the original flavor of the fresh ingredients. Fresh and seasonal fish is often touched by cilantro-infused oils, miso dressing, and Asian citrus for pop and personality. Indie Cafe's fun, casual, and modern Asian interior also lends itself to a comfortable and cozy night with friends. Before the rolls arrive, order up a Ginger or Lychee Martini to whet the appetite. Oh—and for an added bonus, they’re mere steps from the beach.Best New Restaurants, Chicago magazine America's Top Japanese Restaurants, 2008 Zagat

    Hadn't been to Maggiano's in YEARS but wanted to go back for V Day. The first surprise was the 'new' decor that is about 2 years old. Didn't know they are no longer a Lettuce Entertain You restaurant. The interior feels like an upscale hotel. Not stuffy but refined and elegant. Comfortable, too. Our waiter, Jerome, was AMAZING! He was sensitive, attentive, fun to talk with, accomodating and more! We were going to go to a movie and we told Jerome that convo with him was BETTER than a movie!! Really! We got the V Day Special Lunch for Two. Alot of delicious fresh food. We took alot of doggy bags home. Seriously, two sous chefs came out to ask us how everything was. They are in transition and seem to really be intentional and proactive about upgrading their food and their service. Most heartedly recommend!
