The Mac and Teese is a dairy-free side dish that looks startlingly like the real thing. To my surprise, it also mimics the ultra creamy consistency and salty, tangy taste of boxed mac and cheese. Read more

Amazing spot for vegetarian food! Highly recommend the Radical Reuben, with sweet potato fries. Wish i had visited this place more when I was in Chicago. Open one in London please!!

Had a great brunch here! The Mexican breakfast bowl was to die for and so were the vegan pancakes! Not much to do around the restaurant but it was still worth the trip!

The food was excellent. I had the Reuben and really enjoyed it. Service was great until we finished - - then our server forgot about us and it was an effort to get the bill paid!

There are healty options& options if uou aren't vegetarian that will satisfy. breakfast bowl, buffalo wings are delicious, but my first love is their ruben sandwich. Get there early for breakfast.

No matter what you get, you'll be very happy you did. My favorite place to go while in Chicago. (I'm from Dallas, tx)

This place makes my belly happy. The County Fried Steak was awesome. I wanted to order a second helping! This location is much nicer than the other location.

If you're looking for vegan cuisine, #ChicagoDiner is the place to go. I'm not vegan, but I must admit that the vegan Rueben sandwich is very tasty.
Andrea NyicsMay 13, 2015
Radical Reuben with waffle fries is a must-to-have meal. Very hard to find a good vegan Reuben but undoubtly Chicago Diner makes the best one!

I’m Cuban & ever since I became vegetarian I’ve missed my Cuban sandwiches. Chicago Diner hit the spot with their Cuban sandwich!!

The "corned beef" in their Reuben truly does live up to the hype. It's actually one of the better Reubens I've had in the city, period.

I think is my favorite vegan restaurant ever! Loved everything I had here. I like how spacious this location is.
Erica DJanuary 15, 2013
I liked how it was much roomier than the original Chicago diner and I like the bar. I don't know if its just me but I think the sweet potato fries portion is smaller here.

The chocolate mousse ganache cake is as good as it sounds. Try it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Claudia S.June 4, 2014
Amazing! Loved it! I had the Buddha's Karma Burger and it hit the spot. Beware-it could be messy but def worth it!

Vegan Chai was 💰, saiten Thai chili chicken was 🔥, and the mushroom gf burger was 💣. This place was great!!
John PaterakisNovember 19, 2014
Good food and good service. I just wish they'd offer a glass, instead of just popping the top on a can of craft beer!

Where has this place been all my life! I had the Monte Cristo..to die for!!!
M GonzalezMarch 5, 2018
Soft lettuce and a pile of soylent, goodnight Chicago...but no, in all seriousness, it was alright at best, but also not the worst. Maybe the sandwiches are better.
Juily ManghirmalaniSeptember 7, 2019
Atmosphere is great and the food even better. Love that spicy chicken sandwich with all my heart!

Come for the quinoa chili, stay for the milkshakes. 😋 Always.

Pastrami! Never had a real one, but this stands on its own-super tasty and super messy.

This place is AMAZING!!! The wait staff is phenomenal (esp. Liz!!) the food is delicious no matter what you get.

Corned beef hash is amazing -- I'm an omnivore, and this has to be the tastiest fake meat I've ever had!
CarolinaJuly 8, 2016
Everything was great! The shakes are amazing! Definitely coming back when I'm in town.
BJ F.January 24, 2016

Country fried "steak" is the best I've ever had. Thai Chili Wings are also good.

Even non veggies can find a satisfying meal here.

The vegan chai "latte" is very sweet and delicious.

They have a library of VHS tapes, which they play at the bar daily.

Vegan and vegetarian is just not my jam. With that said, if it’s yours, they will have a lot to offer.
Manoj AmbalavananNovember 30, 2020
Great veggie option - doesn’t even feel different from the real deal!
Emmett R. McCarthyNovember 9, 2013
Poutine is excellent, ask for Ryan, especially if you went to NT.
Mandy KirkendallOctober 7, 2013
They have a drink here called the Black Rainbow Unicorn. I haven't had it, but I feel everyone should know this is a thing.
Justine ArrecheSeptember 29, 2015
Huge portions so share a few things. Milkshakes are incredible.
Laura McSlizzJanuary 10, 2017
Curry burger, meat free buffalo wings

Their vegan Russian cocktail is tasty (made with coconut milk). Food is okay.

Vegan rueben was ridiculously good

The food was as good here as at the Halsted location, but the service was painfully slow in Logan Square. No one else seemed to receive slow service, amd they gave us a free dessert to accomodate.

Don't be shy at the community tables. Fun way to meet new people and share menu tips.
OrianaJanuary 2, 2015
The Spicy Crispy Chick'n Sandwich is so good.

desert is way too rich for me but probably perfect for anyone else's sweet tooth.

HUGE menu to choose from. You cannot go wrong.

Close to Revolution Brewery which means fresh beer. I heard the Chili is good.
