The food was great and bakery well above average. The best part was that a friendly sign was posted on the door that asked children to "please behave" and use their "indoor voices." A delightful change from other restaurants that I have been to and left because some parents weren't doing their job and let the little ones run all over the restaurant disturbing everyone else. I would recommend this restaurant to EVERYONE.

My husband and I have been to A Taste of Heaven quite often. The food is very tasty, the ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff members are attentive and friendly. I am especially supportive of the fact that they set their expectations high for good behavior from "children of all ages." Bravo!!

I travel to Chicago once a month and always make it a point to eat at this wonderful restaurant. Sorry they are having "kid" problems, I have a business and the "kids" are sometimes out of control. The problem is the parents. THIS RESTAURANT IS EXCELLENT with an excellent staff. Enjoy it and enjoy the kids being told to sit down and be quiet.

If you want to enjoy your bakery atmosphere with all those delicious items, then this place is perfect. Oh, and I LOVE the admonishment to misbehaving little people. Enough is enough already, parents! No one wants to listen to your offspring cause a ruckus. If I want to pay to listen to children act like children, I'll hop on down to Chuck E Cheese's! In the meantime, Heaven has my vote and my money. Keep doing what you are doing!

I stopped going to A Taste of Heaven when I could no longer distinguish it from Kiddieland. Thanks to the marvelous owner, it now looks and smells like what is should - a lovely little cafe. Gone are the undisciplined, shrieking brats and grimy handprints on the display cases. Gone are people holding their hands over their ears in pain as "parents" assume strangers will keep an eye on their kids. The staff has taken back the store and returned it to a quiet, blissful place to enjoy a coffee and pastry. Thank you A Taste of Heaven! Patrons can now focus on enjoying the tasty treats unharrassed.
