This impromptu birthday celebration was a delight. We had the best server. I can’t remember his name; but he was great. Patient, and accommodating.

Something that I love more than finding a good happy hour- is discovering hidden gems wherever I go! The Little Gem Cafe is located in the Chicago/Oakpark area and is definitely a treasure in the area!

Service is good, food is also good and tasty (especially the mussels), but it is a little overpriced for what you actually get. $80 for two sandwiches, one appetizer, and one bottle sparkling water. Again, the place is very nice and the decoration is good-looking, with a cute terrace, but the price is a little too much. Will recommend for a date or a business lunch, but not for casual dining

Last Thursday was my husband’s and my wedding anniversary and although this visit was only our second time, we celebrated at our favorite restaurant The Little Gem Cafe and they did not disappoint. The staff was so wonderful and accomodating and the food as always was exceptional from the calamari appetizer, the honey Brussels sprouts down to the main courses that included the Gouda stuffed pork chop and the sausage orecchiette; but the sleeper super rock star was those Brussels Sprouts which were crispy, sweet, flavorful and perfectly done. As always the desserts were fantastic and I would like to thank our server Carlos for being so attentive.

This place is an absolute charm, offering delightful martinis and delectable food. My friend ordered the shrimp with garlic sauce, and I opted for the boneless chicken dish, which had an amazing sauce. The jazz musician added the perfect touch, creating a wonderful atmosphere for a date. I’m already looking forward to returning in the future!

My wife and I went on a date. Food was good. Calamari is the best. Steak and lamb chops were cooked perfectly. It was a great experience.

This restaurant is indeed a little gem! My mother, grandmother & I enjoyed our impromptu lunch date after celebrating the loss of a love one. We were greeted by staff and a owner I believe( definitely all the warm fuzzy feelings from that). We order the mussels for an appetizer ( immaculate and perfectly cooked in a white wine sauce). We each order drinks; mom has the erocia riesling( she loved), myself the new old fashioned( it was good nothing to put of the ordinary or different), grandma had a martini with no vodka as she really isn’t a drinker but she loved it to say the least. For main course I had the boneless slow roasted half chicken ( pure perfection juicy and crispy skin; it wasn’t quite half of a chicken it was only a breast & thigh). Mom had the seafood risotto ( definitely lived up to the reviews of being delicious and cooked perfectly; the only critic I was there was a bit to much liquid to the risotto cause it to continue in absorption of liquid. If you were saving any for later( which you probably won’t because it’s just that good) it might be a little mushy while reheating. My grandmother had the pan seared salmon filet cooked medium well. She enjoyed it immensely; leaving nothing for later hehe.

Went to brunch with my friend on a beautiful Saturday. There was a private party next door. We sat outside to enjoy the weather. The hostess was also our waitress. We waited an hour and 15 minutes for our food. Potatoes, eggs and bacon skillet. Nothing major. No one apologized for our wait. No one offered any compensation for our wait. Nothing. Another group came after us, got their food within 15 minutes, paid and left before us. When asked why we had to wait so long it was blamed on the private party. Honestly, I understand things happen and businesses are losing employees and customers, but my problem is that no one apologized or offered a discount on the bill. We had to ask. I gave a star to the hostess because she was nice but could still learn about customer service. And a star for the food being good. But not good enough for me to ever go back due to that experience.
