About this venue

At Café Mado, we believe the most memorable gatherings feel deeply personal. Tucked into a quiet corner of Prospect Heights, our space was built with intention—a place where food, setting, and service come together with care. Drawing inspiration from by the Riviera and the legacy of Madame Mado, who championed grace and hospitality, we approach each event as a chance to welcome you into our story. Our enclosed atrium, sunlit and serene, opens onto a garden that shifts with the seasons. The dining room is understated and intimate, designed to let food and conversation lead. Whether you're planning a family-style dinner, a small ceremony, or a spirited celebration, we work closely with you to create something that feels considered and sincere. We offer both partial and full buyouts, and our menus evolve with the market—always rooted in produce, handmade pastas, and carefully sourced seafood. Café Mado isn’t just a venue—it’s a shared table. And we’d be honored to set it for you.
