We went to Modern Plate for dinner on New Year’s Eve. We had great food and our waitress was busy but treated us very kindly. Thanks, Holly!

This was our first meal at Modern Plate. The restaurant was decorated for Christmas beautifully. Server was very helpful and attentive. The food was delicious and there was lots of it. Go check it out in downtown Elmhurst.

I have visited this place a few times now and must say it is always great. Had my wife's b-day celebration here and it was the best decision we could have made. Set up bar tab for my guests and the service was top notch and they kept us updated on the amount we were at when getting to the limit we set. Food is good and apps were served for each table and enjoyed by all.
We tried the sliders, flatbread, chicken skewers, burgers, and calamari, and for desert lava cake. Recommend it all. For drinks we had old fashioned, espresso martini, long island, and cosmos. Again, all good and recommended.
Thank you to the staff and manager for making our visits very enjoyable. See you again soon.
