Indie Cafe Chicago Reviews from The Last Year
Indie cafe sushi + Thai really is a different experience.
The ambiance really is nice it is very peaceful when you come in and sit down. The food is very good. I will recommend the chefs omakase really quality fish and you could taste how fresh it was.
We usually order take out.
Great variety with consistent my high quality. We order regularly from indie Cafe.
Ordered take out here, no meat ramen was inedible , smelled
Ordered take out here, no meat ramen was inedible , smelled really bad . I couldn't bear to eat it. There were huge blocks of raw tofu and not too much else. I also got egg rolls which were disappointing as well. Crab Rangoon was good .
Food was great.
Service (waiter) not so because I decided to eat in. The cooks were great; the waiter on Thursday, 03/07/24- would not even look at me or offer a glass of water (the cook did it). Very rude tone when saying -next time make sure you say dine in (I am their frequent customer). Would not go back. Warm and pleasant with certain customers. Completely ignoring others (got for my basics:water and napkins)- no thank you or anything.

Alway delicious! A quality place to go for dining in or takeout. The vegetable maki and veggie ramen are delicious- perfect option for vegans/vegetarians.

Over the years, Indie Cafe has been amazingly kind and thoughtful in their service, and their food preparations and presentations always go above and beyond all of my expectations. From quadruple-checking whether or not a menu item is gluten-free, to recommending the best wine/sake pairings for an entrée, their staff have always ensured that I've left their restaurant knowing that I was appreciated as a customer. And welcomed as a friend. Given the quality of their sashimi, the creativity behind their menu, and the warmth in their hearts? I look forward to dining with them for many years to come.
Our party of three all had curry.
The Red Curry had great flavor, ask for it mild if you are sensitive to spice. The Panang was also good, as was the Signature Curry which had a lot of filling in the sauce, some kind of crunchy noodle, potato, some kind of squash along with chicken. Could have used more sauce with all the filling. The prices at Indie Cafe are relatively reasonable, considering restaurant prices these days. The ambiance on one side of the restaurant is somewhat lacking. It seems a little cozier on the side to the north. We parked right in front at a metered spot.
We love to visit Indie Cafe.
our family and family friends from Thailand missed Thai and Japanese food, Indie Cafe is the place to go. The Thai dishes are real local taste but not too spicy. Many sushi choices are fresh and in a fancy decorative style. The staffs are very friendly and good services. Very reasonable prices. When weather permits, sometime we like to sit outside enjoy nice Chicago weather.We visited Indie Cafe many times during our short visit. We definitely come back again anytime we come to Chicago. Great job, Indie Cafe.
I want to like this place but it has a few problems we
I want to like this place but it has a few problems we experienced over dinner. We had a party of six on a recent weeknight. Seated inside not on sidewalk cafe. Which looked nice but loud w/ Broadway traffic. As the sun came down the lights stayed low. Not a big deal but you need the phone flashlight. Water came. Big menu options. Sushi, Thai. Curries. We had a few appetizers. The broccoli gomae, veggie egg roll, spring roll, veggie tempura, chive dumpling were ok. We ordered dinner. Sushi maki roll came out kinda quickly. Then each diner had their meal brought out in a sequence time lapse. Kinda like the chef made one at a time. The kitchen spacing was weird. Made for uneven night. Not busy at the time. So it was not a good experience made worse when my ramen finally came out last after everyone was eating and it was the wrong order I requested. It was not that good either. The whole pre boiled egg was cold sitting in an ok broth. I don't feel the mgt cared. No one asked us how we liked our meals or wanted to come by and say "we're sorry your food is not coming out right away". Just staff socializing and hitting their social channels near bar.
Amazing food! Affordable, and a great atmosphere. If you’re lucky enough to have Mya as your server, even better.
Great Thai food. Simple, quiet atmosphere, and fast service. Off the beaten path, but worth another Red Line stop. And Mya is the absolute best!

Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
|
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
|
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
|
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

Idk if this is related to the unsold listing % rule but I have listed 6 reservations and sold 5 of them and my unsold listing percentage is ~45%. For some reason the unsold listings have not been converted into sold ones. Does this happen only after the payment is released following the booking or is it an issue that needs to be addressed?

Give the best answerHonest review of AT and advice to new joiners
Forget trying to snipe reservations online by waking up early and booking top restaurants at Carbone or Tatiana or Cote or 4Charles. After 2.5 months of booking reservations by setting up alarms, waking up early to sell appointments. It’s very hard to cash out on this app. During cash out, you have to pay $5 fee +3% transactions fee and max payout per day is $150.
Advice to new users:
- do not mass book reservations
- fill bids only
- don’t try to book reservations online, you need connections and call the restaurant
After putting in about 40 hours of work, I’ve made about $750 sale on this platform but gotten paid $0. Take this with a grain of salt.

Hello All,
I don’t know what else to do as I can’t transfer my cleared funds to my bank account. Customer support is close to non existing and not helpful. How can we keep selling here if we can’t withdraw what we have worked for. They say I have to wait 180 days. This is ridiculous!

Am confused about the payout restrictions. Have nearly $1k sitting, wanted to withdraw some and am surprised to see I can only withdraw $50. If i have to do this everyday I’ll end up paying over $90 in fees just for withdrawing via ACH which doesn’t make much sense to me. Have opened a ticket regarding this, but any input or advice would be appreciated

Has anyone found a way to get a question answered? From what I can tell there is no way to get in touch with anyone that works at/for AT. Other than the occasional admin posting a consultation offer here and there they are non existent. A lot of people have the same issue I have where we cannot cash out earnings. I cannot get my warning medal removed even though I am under the threshold. Sad to say but seems like AT is holding up everyone’s funds currently. Very scary and makes me wonder….Please reply if you read this admins and can help. Tried every way possible to get in touch

Give the best answerRestaurant Bought/Canceled Their Own Reservation
I accepted a bid for a popular restaurant in Los Angeles only to receive a phone call shortly thereafter informing me that the reservation had been canceled due to it being listed on AT. I of course need to subsequently cancel the reservation on AT but get this warning that my status will be negatively affected for doing so. I've reached out to customer support about this several times with no response, not sure what to do in this station. Hoping someone can advise.
