Tempo Cafe

My boyfriend and I wanted to grab a quick breakfast before touring Chicago while we were in town for the weekend. This place was your typical diner with a huge menu, great food and fast service. Being from NJ, we love diners and this place definitely satisfied. Our waitress was able to make several dietary accommodations for us and let us substitute certain foods. She was very friendly and attentive and let us know that portions are huuuuge. We were afraid it wouldn't be enough for the two of us and she had an extra egg added, which was so nice.

It's good that we only ordered one because it was massive. It was delicious, with mushrooms, cheese, peppers, onions and some others. The size was perfect for the both of us and we finished probably everything but a few bites. If you're looking for some quick, casual, delicious food, definitely stop by.

This Restaurant is Great,I have been going here for years. I've been a customer when they were across the street at the old location. I miss the pictures of all the stars which come in and have a Great time. The Staff is Always Great and full of Life,see you next time at 4am.

Great place for brunch food at all hours! Incredibly friendly staff with a homey atmosphere. And with waffles that good its a place I visit regularly.

Tempo, can you please teach an online class to all the other people on how to run a great restaurant? I feel like all the other restaurants could learn a lot from you.

Tempo is quite simply the best all night 24/7 restaurant in Chicago and quite possibly, the world. Their food is yummy delicious and always fresh. Their staff is friendly, personable, and efficient at all hours. I love how their omelettes come in a pan with the potatoes--such a classic touch!

The restaurant itself is clean, bright, and airy. I can attest that the men's room is likewise. (Unless I am in there, of course)

I would eat every meal here if I could. I love the personable waitresses and how I can just read in peace here.

Tempo sets the speed and tone for what a Chicago restaurant should be!

Hadn't been here in awhile..it was great to see the food was still good! Many interior upgrades since I was last there and the prices didn't go up much! Thumbs up to that! ! Friendly staff...nice atmosphere and good food!!
