50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Crest Hill

“we moved from the area years ago , came back for the holiday weekend . Decided before we even drove 600 miles up here to come to merichkas friday the day after thankgiving and invite the family out to join us. made reservations for 6pm for a large table ,our 10 party members showed up on time . our table was ready . for parties over 8 people an 18% gratuity is automatically added to the bill. our waitress forgot to bring a salad , didnt refill a few drinks even after being asked, forgot to drop my daughters porkchop order so it didnt come until everyone else was just about done eating so they comped and put it up in a take home box. for demanding 18% tip we should have had impeccable table service. definitely not the merichkas we remember.“

“I found this gem by accident and will certainly be coming back! I had two tacos (chicken and tripe) and both were delicious. The ingredients were fresh and well seasoned and a good size. I also had a green shake which was a great healthy addition.
The service was friendly and informative. Mr S. was absolutely amazing. I was so full, but I wanted to take something home so I also ordered a torta. I’ll let you know how that was. Highly recommend.“

Thank you for your concern and care for your customers. 9“

Try the Happy Drink to finish off your meal or as a summertime refreshment!! Staff is awesome and very friendly and we will definitely be back for more ✨😊“

“Beautiful atmosphere and food tastes amazing!!! Hospitality excellent!!! Highly recommend!!! Our new favorite restaurant close to home ~ love“

“So many flavors to recommend! Key Lime Pie, Cheese Cake and Chocoholic were amazing.“

“By far the best sandwiches in southwest burbs. Besides that, you have to try their soups and fresh bakery treats. 5 stars all around!“

“Hidden gem with excellent food. We frequent a few times a month— because the food is just that good. Our fav apps include Spring Rolls, Crab Rangoon, & Pan Fried Dumplings. For entrees, can’t go wrong with Homemade Dumpling Soup, Thai Style Fried Rice, Pad Thai, or Thai BBQ Pork with noodles. My husband is more adventurous and his MVP’s are Massaman Curry & Thai Red Curry. We are slowly making our way through the entire menu but hard not to just order our favorites every time. Thai Milk Tea is also delish. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“Customer service exceeded all expectations! Steve created an amazing sampler platter! His dessert was the hit of the party! Thank you so much! 🥰“

“Some of the most flavorful food I have had in a long time . First time customer, and would definitely be going back.“

“Such a fun time! The staff were wonderful, the food was incredible, and the wine—wow. I tried several new varieties and enjoyed them all. The team asked what I was interested in and gave great recommendations. Plus, they even have a solid nonalcoholic drink selection!“

“Highly recommend eating here!! Authentic Mexican food with friendly staff. Will be returning and making the hour drive from Chicago 👀“

“Best sushi I’ve had in my life. I’m a big fan.“

“The food was simply fantastic. I ordered the Lithuanian beef sandwich, it was constructed to perfection. The beef was tender and flavorful, with just the right amount of seasoning. It’s clear they use high-quality ingredients. For a international European store, there is a vast variety of food you will explore there. Overall, Peter’s Deli in Lemont is a hidden gem with the best family-friendly atmosphere and a landmark on this planet. I’ll definitely be returning!

Dietary restrictions: While I don’t have any dietary restrictions, I did notice they have several options available for those who might need gluten-free or vegetarian choices, which is great to see at a deli.

Parking: Parking is convenient with plenty of spots available in their lot always. I had no problem finding a spot even during a busy lunchtime. There’s a good-sized parking area right next to the deli, making it easy to stop by whether you're grabbing takeout or dining in.

Kid-friendliness: They embraced my kids with friendliness and joy.“

“Great food, drink, and staff. Reasonable prices. Love the outdoor area!“

“comida deliciosa,muy rico“

“Great breakfast 🍳 skillets!!! Great food and great service. Highly recommend 😊“

“Madison was lovely as our server this most recent visit. attentive, welcoming, & prompt.

Went on a Sunday night & had a lackluster dinner compared to numerous other visits. New menu, later in the evening on a weekend. But undercooked veggies & lukewarm sides were not ideal.

every other time I have been to sovereign, the food has been great. hopefully the new menu changes are better after the first week of service with them.“

“Great service, great food!“

“Nothing beats a good Italian Beef especially when your in Chicagoland! That is exactly what you will get when you have an Italian Beef from Johnny's. This was my second time at Johnny's but first time at this location. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly and the food phenomenal! It's a casual place to grab a great Italian Beef... They have several options besides the Italian Besf which I do plan on trying if I can eat there without ordering my favorite!“

“Best pancake house ever!! Friendly environment, generous portions & reasonable prices! I've tried & highly recommend the Cinnamon pancakes, S'mores pancakes, Southwest Benedict, waffles, steak chilaquiles & the Cowboy breakfast sandwich. Every single meal was incredibly flavorful, fresh & absolutely delicious!!! The Cowboy breakfast sandwich wins the "ultimate comfort food award" !!! I'd eat here every day if I could!!!“

“Four of us from Dwight ate there Thursday night. Everything was outstanding. The pork chops were well seasoned and moist. My veal and smashed sweet potato was to die for. And the bread pudding was delicious. Missed several items on the menu, I will be back. Kudos to you and your staff for a fantastic evening!“

“She made my daughter 16th birthday cake and she loved it. The cake was so good. She definitely gonna be my baker. She is so friendly and professional. She definitely understood the assignment“

“coming here to leave a review before we even meet our reservation times! We had reservations at the lemont location, and who ever had called me (forgot the name, my bad) was so nice about a unfortunate situation and went out of his way to call the lagrange location and book my reservation for my boyfriends birthday dinner/promotion celebration. since I moved to this area 6 months ago, I have never crossed paths with such a caring sweet person. Lemont location, we haven't been there yet, but we will be soon just for that! thank you so much to the one who made sure we were able to keep our dinner reservations! UPDATE: made it to the food. first of all. food and drinks are amazing hands down. if you havent went... GOOOO!! Gary and Trevor, from the Lemont and Lagrange locations, thank you so much for making it a memorable night for my boyfriend for his birthday/promotion. you both are the greatest and hands down will be the reason why we become regulars and we tell everyone to come visit both locations. ♡♡♡“

“I ordered the Grilled Chicken Margherita with Minestrone soup. It was very good and the portion was good also. I normally order Pasta (Chicken Scampi) but wanted to try something different.
I really like that you could also order a take home meal for only $6 now.“

“Always great food when I go there and take out is never a problem! Whenever I mention bee brothers all I hear is great things! Great potato soup and amazing chicken. Will always order here please keep up the great work! ❤️“

“George’s has been ‘Lockport’…..everyone goes to George’s. Love the place!! Been going there for years! Today I went there for breakfast and was told by the waitress I was not allowed to bring in my own creamer. She said it was because people sneak in alcohol disguised as other beverages. Ok…I get that. They don’t want alcohol in the restaurant….but when she claimed it was COVID related that was utter nonsense. Is this yet another instance of stupidity where COVID is on outside creamer bottles but not on everything other item coming through the door? D****“

“Zuka hibachi catering was incredible! We surprised my husband for his 40th birthday with an at home hibachi dinner and Zuka was fantastic. The chef was great and very entertaining and the food was delicious! Highly recommend!!“

“I’m in Braidwood and it is sooooo worth the ride!!! We have absolutely no GOOD pizza places over here and the surrounding towns of Braidwood. Take the ride and get a GREAT PIZZA AND APPETIZERS ! Download the app and get lots of great deals too! I just earned 10.00 in Beggars bux!“

“Very Nice and Delicious Second time there Want be my last“

“Food was decent but nothing special. The biggest issue is prices were higher than the already way overpriced ones on their menu. Not only is it kind of deceitful to charge more than your menu states (at least put a notice that prices had to be raised for inflation or something), but that priced this place way above similar competitors“

“Always a pleasure going here to eat, and you can’t beat the all you can eat sushi. The wife and I have been going here for years and always had a good experience.“

“Classic, longstanding location in Chicago's little Mexico. Great flavors and ambience. You would think you were in Mexico until you step outside into the freezing cold.“

“Had an awesome time at Uptown Tap and Eatery thanks to our server, Alex Barlog! He was super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. From checking in on us at the perfect times to making great drink and food suggestions, Alex went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. You can tell he genuinely cares about providing great service. If you’re heading to Uptown, definitely hope you get Alex, he’ll take great care of you!“

“Homemade chips were very good. Burger was amazing. Exceptional service.“

“The coffee is always hot and the bacon is always crispy!“

“Lots of cool daft beers, it is abit pricy but so is everything now a days. Sit at the bar for the best service. The table waitresses are a hit and miss.“
