Service was fantastic. Shout out Lizzy!

Good was great. Very tasty. Drinks we're excellent... Well balanced.

Atmosphere was what you'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber. They were also very accommodating to vegetarians.

Desserts were 10/10!!!

Sometimes all the marks are hit 🎯👍🏿👍🏿...
Response from the owner:Earnest, we love hearing this, thank you! 🎯 Nothing better than knowing the food, service, and atmosphere all hit the mark for your visit to Modern Plate. We also appreciate you mentioning the parking situation, weekends can definitely get busy around downtown Elmhurst, but we’re glad it was worth it once you got inside. Hope to see you back again soon for another great night out! 🍽️

Had breakfast my bartender was Amanda S. She greeted me right away and was very quick to get my beer/s. I wanted to try something new and she recommended the salmon toast. I added avocado and 2 sunny side up eggs. It’s was a dream! The cook brought it out. She made me coffee to go since I was in a rush. Check out was fast. Everything was perfect, host, busser, bartender even the manager checked in on me. Would highly recommended everything about this restaurant. Thanks !
Response from the owner:Pablo, this was such an awesome review to read — thank you for taking the time to share your experience! Amanda S. will be so happy to hear this. She does an amazing job making guests feel welcome from the moment they walk in, and we’re glad her recommendation was a hit. That salmon toast with avocado and sunny side eggs sounds like a perfect combo 👌 We’re also happy the entire team, from the kitchen to the hosts and management, helped make your visit smooth, especially while you were on the go. That’s exactly the kind of experience we strive for at Modern Plate. Looking forward to having you back again soon for breakfast… and maybe another beer or two 🍻

I don’t write reviews often, but Sophia absolutely deserves one.
From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place is being led by someone special. Sophia is the kind of manager you rarely come across — young, approachable, and genuinely passionate about what she does, yet carrying herself with the quiet confidence of someone who’s been doing this for decades.
We grabbed seats at the bar and were lucky enough to try her newest cocktail creation, the Greek Dirty Martini, and wow — it is a showstopper. A brilliant, creative twist on a classic that somehow feels both bold and perfectly balanced. It’s already my new go-to, and honestly reason enough to come back.
But what really sets Sophia apart is how she makes every guest feel seen. She came over to us at the bar, asked about our experience, and actually listened. No script, no rush — just genuine care. You can feel her energy ripple through the entire staff too; the team is warm, attentive, and clearly inspired by her example.
Sophia is the real deal. Remember her name — because she’s going places. This spot is lucky to have her, and we’ll absolutely be back.
Response from the owner:Matthew, this is incredible. Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. Sophia is truly something special, and you captured exactly what we’re all about at Modern Plate. Her passion, creativity, and genuine care for every guest make a huge impact, and we’re lucky to have her leading the way. We’ll absolutely be sharing your kind words with her, it’ll mean a lot. Also… that Greek Dirty Martini has been getting some serious love lately, and we’re glad you got to experience it firsthand. Sounds like you’ve officially found your new go-to. We can’t wait to have you back again soon for another great night at the bar. Cheers 🍸

Response from the owner:Arianna, this made our day, thank you!! 🙌 We couldn’t agree more… Amanda, Iwona, and Holley are absolute rockstars behind the bar, and we’ll make sure they see this!
