The only reason it now has 4 stars because it closes at 3 now. I understand maybe business or something but if it was open until 7pm or 8pm on a Thurs or Friday I think more people would enjoy the desserts or evening drink. The desserts are some of the best. Great chocolate cake and cannolis. Their cocktails were excellent. Their breakfast sandwich was really prepared well and very tasty (not pictured). I recommend!

Very nice dining experience. We came here on a Friday night and we booked our reservation online to secure a spot. The evening that we had dinner it was not very busy which was nice because you got a lot of 1:1 time with the staff and the owner. Everyone was really delightful and explained the menu items and also what their favorites. We were able to find parking a few blocks down. However you may need to go ahead and pay for garage parking if coming during the prime time. For food we got Brussels sprouts and fried green tomatoes for appetizers. both were really good and had different areas where they shined. overall the Brussels were fantastic. As for entree we opted for the cajun pasta and the braised beef over grits. Both were fake flavored very well however the brasied beef was very good. Lastly but not least, we got dessert. My husband ordered the carrot cake and I got the toffee pudding. We both enjoyed our individual desserts, but I will say that I am a little bit more going towards The toffee pudding as it's more unique. but the carrot cake was delicious. All in all a really lovely evening, I would definitely come back and try brunch and even just dessert at this location. we enjoyed our cocktails and even the red Blend wine was high quality.

It's worth the walk down the blocks!!! What an amazing way to end the evening. Even though I'm sure many items were sold out, what was left to choose from was absolutely amazing! TOFFEE PUDDING!!! This was a first, and it will have you in a chokehold. It's rich and moist and full of flavor. I probably should've ordered coffee with it, but DELICIOUS! Now the sorbets and gelatos were some of the best I've ever had. Vanilla biscotti flavor was so so so good. I enjoyed my cup of my two favorite flavors, raspberry and lemon! I'm definitely looking forward to a return visit very soon. Excellent service! Nice atmosphere! I would highly recommend stopping by and giving it a try for yourself. It's definitely a highlight of a great time in the Chi!

Stopped by while I was in town. I was left speechless by how good the banana pudding gelato is. Mouth watering isn’t the word. I’m not sure the name of the one owner but she’s a very nice person. Very pleasant, made my experience even more enjoyable. I’ll have to stop by again before leaving out of town.

We stopped in this Friday afternoon for a sweet treat and Decadent did not disappoint. We enjoyed their dark chocolate shortbread and a brownie skillet. Both were worth it! Server was polite and took care of us. Pleasant visit.

I hosted a private birthday party from 8p-12am in April and the Decadent Chicago Team exceeded my expectations. I created a a signature cocktail list along with serving light appetizers such as grits w/ braised short rib, avocado bites, elote bites, shrimp, mini chicken/waffles and baked mac and cheese w/ fried chicken. I would definitely recommend this establishment for private parties.

I love that the croissants are baked to order. They are beautifully crisp and buttery soft, and definitely worth the wait time. Recently, I placed a takeout order for shrimp and grits, and a cannoli, and both did not disappoint. I'm so glad that Decadent is now also open on Sundays.

Update: yesterday was my 83 year old neighbors birthday so since I was walking by I decided to stop in and get her a slice of cake (ended up being 2 slices since I know she likes everything strawberry but they also had a birthday cake slice). She doesn’t leave google reviews but said the cake was so moist and DECADENT that this dessert bar really lives up to its name. Also got her the jumbo decadent wings which she says are the BEST in the city. She’s preparing to move to Florida soon and said Decadent will be her favorite treat whenever someone from Chicago visits 💕 Old review: WoW what a gem in the south loop! I came to have a working breakfast and ended up staying for lunch and taking dinner to go for my neighbor! My only wish was that the free Wi-Fi could be used longer since I was consistently placing orders as I stayed longer and that there would be more plant based meal options. The latte’s are so good and a treat I can get them boozy lol, the avocado toast was yummy and I appreciate the chef made it and my salad vegan. The baristas are great and made wonderful suggestions, and the ambiance is so relaxing, perfect for working lunches and dates!

Tragic. Went in for a sandwich midday. The pastry case was practically empty, it was so sad! There was only one other woman in the place on a laptop eating an omelette, who turned out to be the manager/server. She was very nice and it's a QR ordering system so it was very smooth. The food was fine but very underwhelming. The ingredients are all Cisco-standard and the "avocado spread" was three very small slices of avocado in a little ramekin, that kind of thing. I definitely wouldn't recommend, but I hope they improve things food and can survive.

Decadent Chicago offers a wonderful and intimate dining experience, with exceptional desserts like the brownie skillet with ice cream and a delicious red velvet cake slice but my favorite items are pictured. I was visiting Chicago for the first time and stumbled on this hidden gem. I told everyone I could about this place. I went first for breakfast and again for brunch. The cafe provides a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for people-watching and over relaxation. The service is top-tier, with knowledgeable servers and the eclectic vibe is so rejuvenating. I will definitely visit again if I'm ever in the area.

Honestly one of the best brunches I've had in a long time !! It's two floors with plenty of seating styles (open floor, a nook, upstairs with a more chill lounge seating set up). Super clean. Good music but not too loud so you can still have conversations with your party. I had the braised beef and grits - very savory, flavorful with a soft spicy kick. I've never had this combo before and would definitely get it again. So delicious My partner had the bacon egg and cheese croissant. Perfection. It sounds like a very simple meal but the way everything was cooked, including the freshly baked croissant, perfection. Mimosas were served with a self serve bottle of Prosecco which I really liked because I could create the ratio that I prefer. In terms of the service- the staff is so kind, thorough, and attentive. They create a very homey / family run experience which was enjoyable. Overall great experience and would come back again!

Have only been here for desserts but they were sinfully delightful. The creme brulee, gelato milkshakes and brownie with ice cream were all delicious!! If you're in the area and craving something sweet, do yourself a favor and come here.

My very first time visiting this beautiful little restaurant. I was invited to a Black Everywhere event here for brunch and I was excited to learn that the restaurant was also a Black Owned Business. I ordered the Shrimp and Grits together with the Espresso Martini from their Brunch menu: both were quite good. Service was a little slow but it could be because they had an event going on. So I definitely recommend this spot if you live in South Loop area. They also have coffee, pastries and a wide menu so it basically fits any occasion.

Very excited to try this place. Open to trying it again, but not in a huge rush unfortunately with the balance of quality vs price point ($13). Popped by to try a dessert and went with a slice of chocolate cake. Chocolate cake - 3.5/5. Perfect cake texture. Decent but only OK frosting.

The evening that we had dinner it was not very busy which was nice because you got a lot of 1:1 time with the staff and the owner. Everyone was really delightful and explained the menu items and also what their favorites. Lucky for us we happened to go on the first evening of Chicago restaurant week 2024!!!! We have been wanting to try different restaurants all Uber the metro and decided to go down to South loop. We were able to find parking a few blocks down. However you may need to go ahead and pay for garage parking if coming during the prime time.

A South Loop stop that, if I lived there, I'd be a semi-regular at. I went in after running 10 miles, so I figured anything I got would taste really good. What I ended up getting was grits. Grits sounded good. Short rib sounded good. Sure, why not have both? Honestly, I was also there for the iced coffee, because again, 10 mile run. The coffee was indeed refreshing, but y'all... the grits were art. Grits! Art! There were a few greens (watercress, I think?) on top, and the grits themselves stuck together nicely, were soft, but still tasted like corn. Around the outside was a short rib floating in a slightly spicy sauce. This was also great; you'd think something like this would be too rich, but that's why it was just a bit spicy. A well put-together dish that wasn't too much to swallow for an early lunch. Service was friendly, and it was pretty quiet inside having just walked in a few minutes after it opened. The next time I have a run downtown, Decadent is on the short list.

I got a slice of the red velvet cake and it is absolutely delicious. This is definitely something that I ate on for a couple of days and because of the size it's definitely worth the price. I think I may be spent like $13 on it.

This is genuinely a hidden gem in the city! It's black owned by the nicest family with an amazing atmosphere and delicious treats. It's more of a cafe style during the day making it a perfect spot to work remotely with great coffee, perfect cookies and great regular food dishes as well with lots of seating. Also great for a casual date. By the evening it turns into more of a restaurant and on certain nights they have events like bingo as well. I got the hazelnut cappuccino and a turtle cookie and they were both phenomenal So worth making the trek out of your way for, i'd highlyyyy recommend!

Stopped by here for lunch and ordered a couple of the sandwiches. All sandwiches were really underwhelming and feels like something I could make at home. I think it's really overpriced for what it is. Wait time for the sandwiches took over 30+ mins.

Thanks Decadent team for making my friend's birthday special! They played a special song and brought out a candle and whipped cream when they heard it was my friends' birthday. Plus the cake was SO GREAT!! The slices are $7.50 but they are honestly the size of what I would expect is three cakes. You can order to go or sit down and have table service. Every dessert we've had there has been amazing, but this is the order we'd rank them from best to last (with last still being fantastic and worth the cost): 1. Lemon cake 2. Chocolate cake 3. Carrot cake 4. Brownie

I love this place. It opened last fall and was up the street from the Hilton Chicago where I was staying. It gives off bistro/coffee shop vibes, but is anything but that. It's counter service but they bring your food and drinks to your table. The owner actually took my order and brought out my food. I love establishments where the owner is there working in the trenches. I ordered a Hawaiian latte. It had notes of coconut and macadamia nut but was so good. I also ordered the veggie skillet with scrambled egg on top. It came out in a small, piping hot cast iron skillet and was very well seasoned. The peppers, onions and potatoes were seasoned so well, I could have not had the egg, except I needed the protein. I truly enjoyed my food and can't wait to return to Chicago to go back!

Very nice dining experience! We came here tonight (a Friday) and had booked a reservation in advance. It was not very busy so we had good service and got to talk with the owner. The owner even gave my brother in law a free cinnamon roll. Everyone was delightful. We did the restaurant week menu and had a hard time picking our favorite dishes afterward because everything was so good. We liked the low lighting and candles at our table for ambiance! Hoping to come back soon for brunch.

Walked in to grab a cappuccino with a friend ....it's really nice with a decent bakery selection.Apparently everything is made in house which got me excited. Also, their menu features southern food which I look forward to trying. Kendall at the counter was very sweet!

Five stars - I would come here frequently. We came in the early afternoon for a late brunch. Set up and decor is great. Ordering system was a bit offputting since it's completely automated (scan the code on a table to order), but it works. Staff were great and friendly once you got past the automated ordering. The standout here is the food. We ordered the crispy Brussels. Some of the best I've had. They're actually crispy and the flavor balance is excellent. We inhaled these. I also got the chicken and waffles. Excellent as well. Waffles were crispy and tasty and the chicken was beautifully done. My only gripe is that I prefer chicken breast and this was wings, but that's not really a negative to the food, just a preference; I know most people prefer wing or thigh. All in all, fantastic.

We left before eating. Maybe the deserts were good but what an odd menu. Chocolate cake next to shrimp and grits. All QR code ordering and sterile ambience. My friend and I just looked at each other and weren't feeling it.

I'm a little late with this post. My husband and I decided to tey this place as a casual date night. Upon arriving, we were greeted by a young lady who later admitted that it was her 3rd when she had an issue with the register, but we were ok and understood. The jumbo wings we ordered were really good and seasoned. Truffle fries are good, and the sauce that came with it was delicious. We also had the braised beef with polenta, which would have been good but a little spicy for us because we don't like spicy food. So I wish it was an option to get it without the spice because I think we would really enjoy it. For dessert, we had the chocolate cake and pistachio chocolate shortbread, which was so good. I went back a week later and got another one. For drinks, I had the sangria, which was good, and I was able to share with my husband. The only cons were they had an upstairs, but we were told its for vip in the evening, but other than us, it was only 4 other people there so I wish we had the option to sit upstairs. Also, when we went back for chocolate cake, they didn't have it that day. So I suggest calling first. Overall, we will definitely go back.

We were looking for a nearby dessert spot and stopped in around 7pm. At this point most of the items were gone, so we had a limited selection to choose from. It was a nice big space however with plenty of seating area. We got the carrot cake, gelato, and brownie. Nothing was that great honestly (very dry), and especially for the high price I would have gone elsewhere. We also got coffees which weren't bad.

I finally made my way into Decadent! And boy was I happy. Came in one night for some sweets and desserts l and they did not disappoint! The ambiance is everything. Nicely lit, a romantic feel. It's a beautiful cafe with beautiful decor. Customer service was amazing! All staff are very sweet and friendly. It's plenty of seating and there are two levels. The upper level puts you in the mind of a loft with more plush chairs and if you're lucky you can grab the couch and catch a vibe. But baaaaybeeee!! Let me tell you about the dessert! As picture perfect as it looks....it's taste just as good! Do yourself a favor and come to this hidden gem the South Loop! Oh....AND DID I MENTION ITS BLACK OWNED. Come check it out.

A warm and kind staff, lots of amazing looking sweets and evening savory bites plus wine makes this a great addition to the area! The homemade gelato is made on premise and the strawberry was absolutely delicious. We also had a charcuterie platter and a couple glasses of wine. Prices were excellent and we will make this part of our regular rotation. Note for now, hours are a little more limited as they slowly ramp and staff up. Be sure to check in advance.

We've been wanting to stop in for awhile and wish we'd come sooner! We tried the limoncello prosecco float and a cider-based cocktail- both creative and refreshing. Soon after came smoky braised beef with a rich and smooth cheese sauce over crisp and fluffy waffle fries and a croissant sandwich with turkey, ham, bacon and avocado. Swoon-worthy, both of them. Dessert was a bit of butter cake so moist that it nearly falls apart on the fork smothered in a toffee sauce that is so good that we're happy it features on multiple desserts. We are coming back soon, and recommend you do too if you want to put a shine on your evening. Chelsea and family own and operate here & we look forward to visiting again!

I took my sister to this bistro cafe for lunch to celebrate her graduation today. The vibe is chill, but the cocktails and the dishes and the desserts are out of this world! We had the Peach Cobb martini cocktail. OMG! A peach cobbler with a kick, but not sweet, in a glass. I hear they have the BEST expresso martinis. Back to my visit..... We also had the wings, the fries, the shrimp dish and the Bundt cake. Everything was fresh and seasoned well. The sauce for the truffle fries and wings was savory but not overly rich. The Cajun shrimp with garlic bread were tasty and spicy!Huge glass windows right on the corner so we were able to do some people watching and observe downtown Chicago. The service was laid-back but extremely professional. You order via a QR code. The playlist was soulful and I really felt at home. So, if I come back to Chicago, I'm going to have a decadent time at Decadent again! Thank you for everything. You all are amazing!

We came in last night for the Harry Potter trivia night. IT. WAS. SO. FUN. bravo to the Decadent team for hosting this. I'm sure it was a lot to plan and they didn't quite know what the response would be from the community. Spoiler alert, HP fans show up!!!It was so great. I hope they have these trivia nights often. The place itself is lovely. So posh, as a good friend described it. Love that there's a second level too. Lots of light. The food we had last night were there truffle fries? Wings and the Mac and cheese. Um seconds please!! They have a great wine and drinks list. I can't wait to come here and try all the lovely desserts that in the display. The staff seems so nice and the e space is clean with lots of tables!

This new addition to the South Loop is an absolute GEM! The black and family owned establishment has some of the best cakes we have ever tasted and the food in general is amazing. It has become our morning staple and we are excited to host our Holiday Party there in December. They have a new brunch they are debuting this coming weekend and we cannot wait for spring and the patio to open up! We highly recommend this place. The service is always nice and attentive and while they may be working out a few bugs, it is well worth the wait!!!

This is a nice addition to the sloop. While the main focus is on dessert & they're quite tasty I do wish they had more on the menu for entrees. There's a chicken option & some truffle fries which are decent (I believe it's merely truffle oil) but this would be great for a sandwich or burger spot. The interior is quite scenic & tbh sort of romantic. The staff is lovely & while paying at the register you can peek into the kitchen. To my dismay they're closed on Sunday's which imho causes them to loose a ton of $ especially considering the crowds from bears game. Nonetheless the desserts are delicious & I can't wait to try the s'mores hot chocolate.

This spot has a super nice ambiance, great service and quality food for decent prices, especially given the south loop location. There are two floors, with the loft overlooking the main floor. We tried the truffle fries, red velvet cake, lemon bar, jerk chicken wings and braised beef. The food was all pretty good except the wings could have been fried harder. There was upbeat music playing and they even had a raffle for a free cake. Definitely a place to try.

The food was ok; however, when I ordered my Southwest salad, most of the ingredients were absent. When I let the waitress know, she offered to take the salad back and bring me a fresh one that was prepared correctly. She took my plate and came back again with the same plate she took away and said that the chef said they couldn't make me a fresh salad because I had dug into the salad already . I was like.... I had to "dig into it " to see that most of the ingredients of this $21 salad were missing. She next brought the rest of my ingredients in these small containers to my table. Ok........ I was so disappointed . This was a tacky move. I don't like that the restaurant made a mistake and did not handle the error professionally. Considering that they made the mistake... they should have given me a fresh salad done correctly as a result of their inability to get the dish correct the first time! Also, it should have been free. I tried to support this business, but what they did not sit well with me and not only will I NOT be returning, but I don't recommend this restaurant to anyone. They definitely need to brush up on their hospitality skills.

I took a group of seniors on 05/03/2024, they had run out of certain items on the menu, just about everything we were trying to order was not in stock, but it was showing on the menu like as if they had the product, that's just a way to get the customer in the restaurant, then find out they don't have half of the stuff on the menu​, I'll never recommend this venue!!! 1 star review

Found this gem during a visit to my eye doctor. Was feeling brunch and walked past this place and doubled back. I am so glad I did! This black owned restaurant is amazing! The owner is the one who greeted and seated me. She is phenomenal and very personable. The service is excellent and the food is equally amazing. Y'all know bad service will make the best food taste bad! I had the fried green tomatoes that melt in your mouth and the shrimp and grits. I am not sure what the owner did to get these grits so soft and creamy but I am a fan! The shrimp and grits had the perfect amount of spice and the aromatic flavors set this dish off! I plan to come back for the Sunday brunch soon!

I have been waiting for a dessert and drink place in south loop ! I love that they also have food. I have gotten the club and it's been delicious both times. The chocoholic is very strong and delicious. This is a place you can come to with others, by yourself, and on repeat.

Incredible!! Service is 10 star!!! The vanilla Oreo cookie cake was the best cake I've ever had; moist with an amazing frosting. The Apple stick with butter pecan gelato amazing. Ambiance, clean and relaxed. Thank you for a great experience all around.

I stopped in after leaving the doctor at the Rush South Loop location and was met by the warmest smile from the young lady behind the counter. She was so inviting, you felt almost obligated to buy something. She game me a full overview of the establishment and its amenities. I bought coffee and assured her I would return for the decadent carrot cake at a later time. As I was leaving, the sign for the Sat. Brunch menu caught my eye and my family ordered it the following weekend for carryout and it was delicious. Relaxing venue!

This place is the cutest! We went close to closing time to grab some late night treats and were blown away by the quality and variety of desserts. The carrot cake was delicious, moist, and most importantly did not contain raisins we got some choux pastry filled with deliciously thick vanilla cream and currants. And I got a scoop of apple pie ice cream that was to die for Not to mention the lady working the counter was delightful! My only regret is that we did not try more of their menu items! Next time I come to Chicago I will definitely make a trip to come here. Also would be cute for a date night; the decor is nice and classy.

I love having this cafe in the neighborhood! Everything from their bakery case is delicious! My favorites are the lemon glazed old fashioned donut and the biscoff cheesecake. The bacon egg & cheese croissant is the best breakfast sandwich in South Loop - hands down. The service is always so friendly and helpful. I highly recommend stopping by! 10/10 stars

We love it here!!! It's absolutely adorable in here. Lots of spaces to post up and do work or chat. Was visiting my bestie for just a couple days in Chicago and we went here randomly one night after dinner and they had THE BEST ESPRESSO MARTINI I HAVE EVER HAD, and those are my go to so not everyone makes them just right. We also had the apple pie and pumpkin gelatos and a huge cookie! All were amazing. We came back the next day before my flight to grab a coffee and a pastry and yet again they didn't disappoint :) we met one of the owners, Chelsea, and she was as sweet as her apple pie gelato. Excited to come back next time I'm in town

Such a cute addition to South Loop! My friend and I stopped by this weekend for some desserts after dinner. We had a reservation for 7PM, but the dessert bar was only about 30% filled, so I'm sure it would be easy to stop by without one. Our waiter led us into a smaller room inside the main dining area, enclosed by velvet curtains. It was a bit awkward as there was another party inside, so it felt like we were intruding, but everyone was friendly, so it wasn't a big issue. My friend and I each ordered a hot chocolate and shared the toffee bread pudding. The bread pudding was delicious and moist but very very sweet. The hot chocolates were also decadent but extremely sweet. Some people might have a strong sweet tooth, but I was a little overwhelmed by the sugar rush. Overall, I'd rate this dessert bar 4.5 but rounding up to 5 because of the sweet staff and cute decor. I would recommend you stop by for dessert while you're in the South Loop, but just be prepared for the sugar overload.

I love this place! I've been twice now and every both times I've gone, the service and owners have been nothing but amazing. The food is so good and the dessert is even better. My first time around I got the hot chocolate and biscuits and gravy which was delicious. My second time around was this past Saturday for a group brunch of about 12 of us. My husband and I both ordered the breakfast croissants which melted in your mouth. I got hot chocolate again because why not lol. They brought the table a few orders of the potato and chives which were some of the best I've ever had. Our friend was celebrating his birthday as well and they brought up and entire German Chocolate cake for us. I highly recommend this place! You will not be disappointed.

Been meaning to try this place since we like to support local small businesses. Made it there today and were totally bewildered given all the 4 & 5 star reviews. We had planned to pick up some dessert and take it home so we headed straight for the counter. First, the overall ambience did not seem very inviting. No music. Lighting is nonexistent. There were no other customers in the place and the chairs were on top of the tables upstairs. Not a good look. The cases holding the pastries and gelato looked like they could use a cleaning too. The woman behind the counter stood up but never greeted us. No labeling or prices were listed so you have to ask what everything is and how much. Not a very large offering either. My husband asked how much a slice of chocolate cake was. She actually had to look it up and said $11.50. Yikes!! A bit steep for 1 slice. I said it was our first time in here .... crickets. No welcome. No offer to introduce us to their offerings. No offer of a taste of gelato. Nothing. Finally, we got a turtle brownie for $6.50 (only because my husband has a sweet tooth). Parts of it were dried out. The rest of it was okay, very dense and nothing special. I think I can make better brownies. Super disappointed since we love supporting local small businesses, but just not feeling it here.

Hands down, the best breakfast sandwich that I have had in a long time. It's a simple bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on a croissant but it's elevated because the eggs are cooked to perfection and the croissant is freshly baked. This sandwich has become a Friday tradition for my wife and me.

Very cute, family-ran, dessert spot. Little pricey however considering the area, my partner and I don't mind! Great deserts. Great food. Great customer service and BLACK OWNED! I try to visit at least once, every two weeks. My favorite things on the menu are the truffle fries, jerk wings and peach cobbler cocktail (my usual). Honorable mention to the Southlooper, a whisky smash inspired cocktail.... Very tasty!

Great atmosphere and service! Very friendly staff. Enjoyed the restaurant week menu, food was amazing (definitely try the fried green tomatoes). Will definitely be back.
