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!

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

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.

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!

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.

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.

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)

I think is my favorite vegan restaurant ever! Loved everything I had here. I like how spacious this location is.
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!

Atmosphere is great and the food even better. Love that spicy chicken sandwich with all my heart!

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 staff were wonderful and my gluten free meal was delicious! I'll be back soon!

The chocolate mousse ganache cake is as good as it sounds. Try it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

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

Everything was great! The shakes are amazing! Definitely coming back when I'm in town.

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

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.

Corned beef hash is amazing -- I'm an omnivore, and this has to be the tastiest fake meat I've ever had!

Pastrami! Never had a real one, but this stands on its own-super tasty and super messy.
Amy MaJanuary 9, 2017
staff is super friendly and their shakes are a must have while youre there!

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.

Even non veggies can find a satisfying meal here.

Vegan and vegetarian is just not my jam. With that said, if it’s yours, they will have a lot to offer.
