Atelier Kale

This place is a hidden gem on Oakton Street in Skokie. We came in for Sunday brunch. The restaurant was chic and was clean. The menu featured a lot of options that featured fresh and healthy ingredients. We had the Western Omelette and B.A.T. Tartine. Both dishes were beautifully plated, fresh, and delicious! I can't wait to come here again!

Pleasantly surprised!

I went here to eat on Sunday morning and it blew me away! The quality of the food is outstanding. I had a smoked salmon avocado sandwich which is now one of my favorite breakfast dishes. The price is reasonable compared to the food that you will get.

Friendly and quick service too! You order at the counter and they will bring the food to you. I was checked on many times.

They have a very clean and minimalist interior with two tables for outdoor dining.

I truly fell in love with this place and am excited for many future visits!

After two visits:

Still amazing quality food! I tried the brie cheese apple sandwich and it was great too! The food is so delightful and light every bite feels like a treat!

Atelier Kale is one of my new favorite hot spots that provides healthy breakfast options and smoothies made out of real fruits. The atmosphere was amazing with black and white interior with some cute plants. Friendly service and great location in Skokie downtown area. Below are what I ordered and my thoughts on them.

Garlic Mushroom Omelette: 5 stars. Omelette had cheese inside and I could definitely taste the garlic flavor. Rich with mushrooms. Came with two slices of bread, housemade strawberries jam ($1 to add extra), and a house salad.

Smoked Salmon Avocado: 5 stars. Ingredients were all fresh. Dills sprinkled on top. Capers weren’t overpowering. Their white cream cheese sauce had a great balance of savory and sweet.

Green Milk: 5 stars. Not too sweet and feels refreshing. Very smooth and light with a hint of matcha in it.

Overall, I will definitely visit again.

This place is brand new in Downtown Skokie so I wanted to try it out. I got a super delicious and refreshing breakfast smoothie to start my day. I should have a taken a photo of the beverage when it first came out. I wasn’t expecting to down it as fast as I did. My belly was full as I slurped it up before I noticed.

I met the owners. They are an adorable married couple, Hans and Jay. Immigrants from Korea with a lot of restaurant experience. I hope the best for them. They have my support!

Newly opened brunch cafe in downtown Skokie. So clean and nice! pretty looking salad and open toasts with fresh ingredients homemade jams were also so good and goes well with their signature scones. Would definitely be back to try other menus 😃
