There is no happy hour.
Food was delicious but this place is way overpriced and they charged us a 3% fee for using a credit card.

Such a fun spot for an occasion dinner! We came here during my friends bachelorette weekend and were seated at the most amazing table on the covered patio that was basically sitting on daybeds, it was awesome. The restaurant is gorgeous and so much bigger than I was expecting!! So fun to be right on the river. I tend to be skeptical of the quality of food for the river walk restaurants (typically they are overhyped) but I really enjoyed this one. We split the 4 spreads. My favorite was definitely the beet mutabbal - sooooo good and memorable! The carrot dip was good too, and I also really loved the octopus hummus. The pita bread itself is pretty basic. They recommend doing all shared plates but have some dishes that are more substantial for individual portions too, so we split the spreads and each got our own entree, which works great if you have dietary restrictions. I got the chicken musakhan and it was sooo good! The portion was substantial and the bread had a sweetness to it so it balanced nicely with the savory chicken and onions. The drinks were fine. The pineapple mezcal margarita was nothing special, especially for the price, but I really enjoyed the food. I'd definitely come back to sit on the patio again! Not my favorite Mediterranean in the city but overall a very positive experience.

I went simple on the food a burger and it was delicious the staff is awesome and so friendly. The atmosphere is kind of cool especially seated in their enclosed area by the river. Unfortunately it is cold outside and a little chilly in here.but overall I would definitely be back. A little pricey
Be the first to ReplyReally cute atmosphere.
Get an early reservation to sit on the river. Decent brunch menu options with good portions.
Be the first to ReplyHorrible customer service .
We set a reservation for Sunday brunch and arrived 30 min before time . We requested for the patio area downstairs but were quickly rushed to a tight table upstairs in the corner . The host who worked downstairs was completely rude and short tempered . We had no issue waiting or even coming back but she quickly dismissed us and said "there's nothing we can do" with a smirk and proceeding to seat guest with no reservations ahead of us . When we asked to speak to a manager she said I'm too busy and had her counterpart tell us the same " too bad, too busy" . We were so excited to try the restaurant and were only in town for a day: it's so disappointing when you have people like that representing your business . Delivery, and customer service go a long way and they lacked so much of this here ,

My Saturday night visit to Beatnik on the River was a delightful experience, thanks to its stunning riverside view. I highly recommend trying the octopus appetizer--it's a standout dish that shouldn't be missed. The service was attentive and pleasant, though I felt the menu could use a bit more variety to cater to diverse tastes. Nonetheless, it's possible that this is simply a matter of personal preference.
Be the first to ReplySome of the best babaghanoush and Shashoua that you can get.
Great outside seating, right on the river decorated in Mediterranean flare. I highly recommend.

The ambiance was probably the coolest thing! There were a lot of plants and it gave me a boho type vibe. The music was nice. The view of the river was beautiful! The ambiance was the best part! The food was so different than what I'm used to and I liked that about it! They had Mediterranean she Spanish vibes. My husband loves the halloumi which had a sweet mango flavor from the amba. The crudo was really good and so fresh! As far as the service I thought it could be better. It started out nice but as the night went on, I got a vibe that we were kind of being rushed! So that's why this place had a 3 instead of 4.

Food - 4/5 Ambiance 5/5 (would go higher if I could) Service - 5/5 Value - 4/5 The is one of the most beautiful places to have a meal. Great views of the river while being surrounded by greenery and flowers everywhere which looks great along the bright colored seating and flooring. Service is fast and the staff is friendly. We came for brunch which was good (get the falafel), though I like the dinner menu better. The cocktail I had was great. Overall a fantastic experience for brunch.
Be the first to ReplyFood was decent.
Falafels were not falafels, menu descriptions are deceiving. Service was subpar with a very European style of waiting. The place is all for ambiance and instagram photos. Not terrible but I would not visit again.

Came to celebrate a birthday, was greeted with hostility and a hefty price tag.It looks very cool inside but it doesn't seem like they make a point to regularly clean.The food was delicious but the service left much to be desired.
Be the first to ReplyReservation recommended as this place gets really busy.
There's no parking available with them, you'd either have to find street parking nearby or there's few paid parking lots nearby(you'd have to walk at least half a mile, we parked on Desplaines). Ambience is super cool, you'll enjoy the vibe. Food and service are great but it's on the pricier side. They have pretty good collection of drinks too.
Be the first to ReplySo my old pal Shokko's childhood friend Ginnieshitzu
So my old pal Shokko's childhood friend Ginnieshitzu recommended this place to him. We walked in after a play at the Goodman and I was like, "Dude. Please." But, Shokko being Shokko pushed me along and kvetched, "Aw, come on, you might like it." Might. But did not. And once we got through the first round of drinks and an appetizer, I had no desire to see the full menu. Now, granted, the place DOES have that river view going for it. However, as a previous reviewer noted, he or she could not help noticing how much more lively and inviting the bar across the river was. The Shitzu was wrong. Or maybe jealous that Shokko finally decided to add some female "class" into his lonely lethario life, and she is no longer the "it" girl. Anyroad, we wound up paying the tab and wandering farther down south the river, where we wound up at The Branch, drinking cognac and sharing a tray filled with deserts. Yeah, babee. Love was in thee air along with wafts of my Jean PAtou 1,000.....
Be the first to ReplyExpensive, but good food and cocktails.
I was here last summer, and had a brunch with friends. Everything from service to atmosphere to food and drinks quality checked out. The best part of it was a view of the river, It was nice and sunny out, and the staff opened windows, which I appreciated a lot. A very instagramable place. I will probably come back again.

The zero proof cocktails were so, so amazing! Loved the small plates. Don't skip the lemon dessert! Look forward to returning the next time I am in Chicago.
Be the first to ReplyPictures in most of the reviews are not factual.
I was so excited to visit this location, however, it was a major disappointment. It was my fist time in Chicago and was so excited to find a place on the water. However, as I was sitting there, I wished I was across the river at the sports bar instead. The cocktail was not good ("I came. I saw. I conquered. ") was very underwhelming , the Tres Leches dessert was so incredibly stale, and the coffee was bland. What a waste of $70. The only place in all Chicago where I strongly felt was a waste of money. I do not recommend this place. I can't speak for the food as we only ordered dessert, but if it's the same (stale) as the dessert, please spend your money elsewhere. HOWEVER, service was great. Unfortunately, the experience didn't merit a higher rating, even if service was great.
Be the first to ReplyIf I could give this restaurants zero stars I would.
Despite the bad reviews we decided to give this restaurant the benefit of the doubt, we liked the aesthetic and thought the views could make up for their bad reputation. We were wrong. The food is bland and unappetizing, I should have known the chilaquiles were going to be a disaster when I asked what type of sauce they were and the server had no idea. They were horrible, as someone who grew up eating chilaquiles I feel offended by their lack of effort and the blandness of the sauce. The raw tuna was fine, nothing special about it, I suspect it might have been sitting out of the fridge a while before being served. Which is ironic, because our party of four was served separately, 2 of us finished eating before the other 2 were served. Server was inattentive and a lil rude.
Be the first to ReplyThis restaurant is Instagram worthy.
From the dim lights to the walk to the seating area- it's just so cute. I loved the greenery and the decor. Loved how the atmosphere changed when the sunset and the lights were glowing. Perfect for a girls night out or a date night. The service was nice and the drinks and food were also good! The location of this restaurant right by the river gives it the icing on the cake. The views at night set the mood. Loved it.

This location is so lovely to enjoy the river! It's a bit of a maze to get around the restaurant. We had brunch reservations and still had to wait a while until we were finally seated. Our table was a bit small, thankfully had a bar next to our table to put things out of the way. Service was a bit slow so we made sure to put our orders in immediately since we knew it was going to be a while. We shared the burger and fried chicken bao buns. The food was good. I had a gin cocktail that was also tasty and refreshing. Nice spot for views.
Be the first to ReplyWe made a reservation for Beatnik on the River to sit down
We made a reservation for Beatnik on the River to sit down by the water. The restaurant is laid out very strangely, with rooms connecting to each other and zigzagging you around to get to the lower level. It was a very laid-back and relaxing space. Our server walked us through the menu and gave recommendations for dishes and quantities to order. The server spaced all the dishes out as we ordered all at once. The food was pretty good overall with the exception of the Shakshuka. I think it may have sat too long in the heating window in the kitchen because the eggs were cooked through and not runny as they should be. Our brunch at Beatnik was great despite the one dish having a hiccup. I recommend getting the Sangria Bottle! It's a fun way to have an interactive group drink.
