50 Best Vegan Restaurants near East Dundee

“Excellent food and service. I'm gluten free (sensitivity) and lactose intolerant, and they have options including gluten free breads and mixes and oatmilk. Just ask the server. I personally love their Pot Roast Skillet and their Jambalaya Scramble; and I always take a few dairy pills just in case. Better safe than sorry!“

“The food is absolutely delicious here. The service was very slow but could have been because it was a sunday evening even though there weren't too many people around

We waited twenty minutes to be waited on, they did apologize, but I think if this would have brought a little dish and the house would have made, let me feel better and not so upset“

“Once you eat here, you will not want to eat anywhere else.“

“Great place for breakfast“

“Great Vegan menu! The margaritas are wonderful“

“BEST peanut butter smoothie bowl I have ever had! Staff is super knowledgeable and they have everything you could ever need for your healthy lifestyle. 10/10 recommend and I can’t wait to go back. Thanks Digz!“

“We had such an amazing experience with Lindsey!!! She was so sweet & kind ❤️ went above & beyond to squeeze me in for my little gender reveal I was doing with my husband! The cake was by far the most delicious cake we’ve had! The texture, how moist it was, the frosting & piping work was perfect!! We can’t recommend her enough 🤗 thank you again Lindsey for helping be a part of our special day!!!“

“SYRUP is one of the best local breakfast and brunch restaurants and I would highly recommend it to people who live around Algonquin. Great food and hot tea selection!“

“the best. tacos are phenomenal“

“Oh man: I am from out of state, but Tatsu's Ramen was some of the best I have ever had, period. With fast service, friendly staff and just... amazing tasting food and for the price? Amazing protions.

I had thought this was some kind of bougie Ramen place and instead found a proper Ramen shop that, I believe, is family owned and run.“

“Tonight I decided to venture out and try this restaurant my family has been RAVING about called Al’s Cafe in Downtown Elgin! I sat upstairs and had this lovely server named Marcie! She recommended the monthly special called “Moonstruck” and it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! The ambience, service and food is unmatched! If you are looking for a great night out I highly recommend Al’s Cafe!“

“1776 was a true delight! We spent the 4th of July here 🇺🇸. The food was truly an inspiration. Our waiter Josh was an absolute gem and sweeter than sorghum. We will return and request him as our waiter every time. Love this place.“

“Delicious ice cream and the kids cone is the perfect size for my 3 year old!“

“Great dairy free options!“

“we spent our night tonight there together just myself and my fiance. we had an absolutely wonderful experience. The owners were the most wonderful people. It was nice and quiet just him and I with a little music in the background with nice dim lighting. The food was out of this world! Very generous food portions! we will definitely be thinking about this place for a while!!! Honestly I don't think we could have had a better night! Thank you for making our night special“

“Had the crab Rangoon, lao sausages, lao papaya salad, and steak pad thai.
The crab Rangoon was surprisingly good and was made fresh. Amazing crunch
The lao sausages are fantastic. Had a great lemongrass flavor and delicious meat chunks. If you have never had lao sausages before, this place is worth coming out and trying for that.
The lao papaya salad slaps. However, I highly suggest getting a low heat for the papaya salad. My husband and I have a high heat tolerance but even the medium heat hurt so good. Also worth it to come out for this.
The pad thai was really flavorful. Didn't seem like a large portion of meat however.“

“Great quality french pastries. Excellent service . Highly recommended“

“I haven't been to Alexander's in years and my last experience wasn't a good one. The food wasn't great and the service was terrible. This time was a complete 180° experience! The place has been renovated and looks very nice and very clean (including the very nice restroom). The food and service were, both, wonderful with nice selections on the menu. We went on a weekend, so they had a piano player who was very good. Even the prices weren't the usual "painful" experience of most restaurants. We will, definitely, return. I went because I was told they had improved, considerably, from what I remembered. They have!“

“Always fresh, always delicious. Excellent drinks, even better food“

“I love getting my morning coffee from Elder + Oat a few times a week. It is a little bit of a haul from my house but totally worth it. Have usually get their monthly seasonal cold brew I have never disliked it. Nicole is the sweetest barista! I highly recommend this cute coffee shop!“

“So many styles to choose from. Always hot and tasty! Highly recommend!“

“Delicious champurrado !!! love it !! Very nice staff!“

“We went to Woodfire for the first time a few weeks back on a Thursday night to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Full house!! We had the best appetizers, main dishes (pasta & pizza), drinks and the donuts as a treat from our amazingly friendly server was a fabulous ending to a great night! Great atmosphere, food, drinks & service!! Looking forward to going back again soon!“

What’s not to love about this restaurant?
My husband and I have been on a mission to find the best, authentic Mexican food in the Algonquin area. We, along with our friends and family, agree that this place is it! And we also love that they’re closed on Sundays.“

“The food was outstanding and the waitresses did an awesome job. It seemed like they were extremely busy but never showed it. Very professional“

“Loved our experience friendly staff and delicious food 🍱“

“I’ve eaten at Bleuroot twice when traveling through Chicago for hockey trips. Every bite has been phenomenal and there have been many “Oh you’ve got to try this” shared plates. The staff are amazing and this is a place where it’s okay to be loud and boisterous and joyful. Thanks to Maria and the crew for a great experience (and excellent customer service mailing me back a pair of prescription sunglasses I left on the table!). Looking forward to a third visit in November!“

“Delicious unique fare and cocktails. City vibe in the suburbs. Recommend the Vine margarita, braised short rib panini, and holy grail grilled cheese. We’ll be back to support this local restaurant especially because the staff is so friendly.“

“The sweet owner walked across the tracks this morning to give my daughter an avocado egg sandwich before taking the train to Chicago. He heard my daughter wanted one and he was so kind to Bring her one. Btw my daughter enjoyed it on the train! Thank you again for your hospitality!“

“It's a great local restaurant for birthdays and other events!! Delicious food and wine as well as wonderful service!!“

“Absolutely delicious. Great staff. Great cocktails“

“New to the area and tried out the nearest breakfast place— we were not disappointed! The pancake and crispy hash browns were delicious!!! The restaurant was very clean and our sever was very nice and attentive. We will definitely be back.“

“Stopped here for my first time ever by using the Too Good To Go app and was surprised to see all of delicious options they have. I will definitely be going back to try out their salads. I got the Waldorf chicken salad wrap and it was delicious.“

“Our favorite ramen spot close to home! So happy their squash curry ramen is back! I’m been dreaming about it!“

“The food is delicious every time.“

“Very good hot dog; they really grill it until it is hot. A "Shroomer" made as a grilled chicken sandwich is good. The burger is good and I have ended up getting a kid's meal last time so that I can try to eat less meat. I am more of a light weight person anyway. The inside of the restaurant could be renovated. They are still in the real old Kooker's building with the same old tile floor that Kooker's restaurant had when I was in high school. It is over 20 years later now. I have been willing to go back to Happy Burger to get meals. The people at the front desk are nice. I do admit, though, sometimes I end up getting a burger for $3 at fast food drive-throughs. Happy Burger (HB) burger tastes more like a fresh made juicy burger when compared to the McDonald's on the other side of the street. HB fries are not bad but could be better because when the HB fries come up and go into a bag, I have found they were a bit wet.Wet fries is a common imperfection with Chicago-style grills.“

“I went to Wok n Fire for my first time tonight and got to experience it a little differently with it being the first day you are able to dine indoors since COVID. Our waitress, Stacey was absolutely amazing! She gave personal recommendations and even traded out my girlfriends wine that she didn’t like. Great food and delicious!“

“Great place! Our party of 5 bellied up to the bar and had a great time. Jim our server and Scott the bartender made some great recommendations on drinks and apps. Watermelon margarita was the best one in the flight we had. The Tequilla Old Fashion was fantastic! Definitely made new friends and will be back often“
