50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Elburn

“I really like the friendly atmosphere. The restaurant is well lit and decorated. The servers were welcoming and attentive. Oh, and yes, the food was great. 😀“

“This is the 2nd time we've been here. It was alright. The tots were amazing. Other than that, we know they were shorthanded, but it was 3 of us and another party of 5. It seemed odd that the owner would leave the restaurant understaffed. We sat near the open garage door. It was a nice day but the elderly lady, who clearly didn't need a cigarette, stood right in front. I'm also not a huge fan of non-service animals walking through a place that serves food. The server is friendly and as attentive as she could be considering the situation.“

“Had a lovely early dinner here with my family on a Saturday. We were sat on the patio right away, and it wasn’t too busy. Burgers and fries were good and my Caprese Chicken Wrap was fresh. Food and cocktails all came out pretty quickly. No complaints!“

“15/10, this place is AMAZING.
fried elote is PURE GENIUS, the salsa is FANTASTIC, your puffs are magical little fried pieces of heaven & the friendliest, most pleasant service you could ask for! the gentleman behind the counter was so polite and so welcoming, it made the experience even better. we will be back very very soon!“

“Dough nuggets are awesome. Sauces all good.
Ordered a thin crust just cheese. Was greacy, undercooked and just not good. But I've had Rosaties many times and will keep coming back. Let's cook it just a little longer next time!!“

“Chef Abdul's is absolutely fabulous! The food was fresh, delicious and with generous servings. The baklava is to die for. The staff is friendly, attentive and a pleasure to be around. Consider this our new fave!“

“Went to Balmoral restaurant for my birthday dinner last night. My husband and I enjoyed our 5 course meal. We started with mushrooms in a garlic sauce that was served with a crusted bread. The sauce was so tasty. We had mixed greens salads. Pea and Ham soup. The soup was very flavorful. My husband had a beautiful cut porkchop with chosen sides of roasted potatoes and glazed carrots. I chose a chicken dish and once again the sauce was incredible. The meat literally melted when you cut it, it was very tender. My chosen sides were glazed sweet potatoes and cauliflower in a cheese sauce. We were stuffed but ordered dessert just because. We chose a chocolate and shortbread dessert. We ate every crumb. Our server was attentive and informative about all the food. The menu is extensive. We highly recommend. We'll be back to try more items from menu and try their afternoon tea.“

“Best sushi and ramen I've ever had. HIGHLY recommend this restaurant!!!“

“Syrup is easily the best breakfast and lunch spot in Aurora. The food is consistent which is sometimes hard to find and the flavors are always spot on. Big fan of the Loaded Potato Cakes with Tillamook Cheddar, but yesterday I found a new favorite in the Chicken & Waffles Deluxe. Their omelets are always huge and packed with ingredients. The Billion Dollar Bacon is also amazing.“

“I had a really enjoyable meal. The place has a casual, welcoming vibe, and the menu offers a great variety of Thai and Lao favorites. We started with the spring rolls, which were fresh, crisp, and served with a tasty dipping sauce .The drunken noodles were a standout—packed with flavor, slightly spicy, and perfectly balanced with veggies and noodles cooked freshly.

Another highlight was the papaya salad. It was refreshing, and tangy.
Honestly, it was one of the best papaya salads I’ve had in a while. The Panang curry with tofu was creamy and aromatic, a comforting dish that paired beautifully with steamed rice. The tofu soaked up the curry flavors nicely, making every bite delicious.

I ordered a cold Thai tea, which was sweet, smooth, and refreshing—perfect alongside the spicier dishes. Overall, the food was flavorful, portions were generous, and everything tasted freshly prepared. It’s definitely a spot worth visiting , with plenty of vegetarian-friendly options.“

“First time for everything deep-fried pickles, AMAZING!!! Chicken fettuccine with grilled chicken was smooth and creamy. Fresh warm bread and butter with a crispy salad. I'll be back 100%. We ate outside, and the server was AWSOME. A young man who made sure we had what we needed.“

“First time at Open Range…Katie was our waitress…very nice and attentive! Will be back!“

“Bien servicio y la comida muy sabrosa, totalmente familiar“

“Food is deliciously prepared. Servers are courteous and in a friendly mood! 👏🏽🤝“

“Might be the best omelette I’ve ever had…. I’m full right now and it kinda hurts. Lotta food (Ozempic girlies watch out) and you gotta eat it all. Perfectly seasoned red skins and the cinnamon butter on the pancakes…. Dude. I’m not high but I wish I was for this. Order the Alexander omelette you won’t regret it.“

“I don't visit often because it's kinda a hike for me but always a pleasure when I do visit. Nice taproom with a chill outdoor area. The beer is always great. I feel the BA program is a sleeper in the Chicagoland beer scene. BA Kamoho is currently in my top list of best BA pastry stouts of the year. I'm a sucker for that cinna/coco combo and every release of that beer has been absolutely delicious.“

“I got the cheddar cheese beef and Omg That was so delicious. I need to go back very soon to get another one.“

“The Bulldog has always been a place I looked forward to meeting friends at when I came to Aurora.
The staff is always smiling and attentive to what we need.
Hearing the change to a breakfast place made me laugh. How unoriginal can you get? Those are a dime a dozen and none truly last long in the restaurant world. Why, it’s hard to get original with breakfast offerings. The biggest piece for success is the people. They are the main reason we would go to there.
It’s a business decision, but I don’t feel a wise one. Also, the timing couldn’t be worse. Don’t tell me you didn’t know this was happening. Have a heart for your people around the holidays!“

“We've been going there for awhile and lately it just seems like a better place! Best service, food quality is better, drinks are great, and very reasonable!“

Tanya who was our waitress and coordinator for the setup in the back room was absolutely amazing. She was super friendly and helpful with everything. You can tell she loves her job since she was always smiling. You have a great worker with Tanya. Also, the cast and crew loved the pizza and salads.“

“We have always been happy with Rosati’s in Sugar Grove. My son is a pizza-holic! :) He has very high standards for his pizza and his favorite is Rosati’s. I have always been treated with friendliness and respect at this location. There are a lot of pizza places to choose from in our area and a Rosati’s 9/10 gets our business. 5 stars“

“Very filling portions and super affordable prices.For $13 I would this (a small size) with a nice side of white rice and spicy chili oil on the side. I definitely will be retuning because it’s so flavorful without being overly saucy or greasy.

Parking: Plenty spacious parking.“

“This unassuming little place was quite the surprise! Looking for something new, our first trip here did not disappoint. Attentive service, good selection of items to choose from, and great flavors. What really put things over the top was the nice little extra attention to detail. The sushi rolls were fresh, the Gyoza was awesome, the sauce that came with the Katsu Chicken was amazing - and even the shredded cabbage on the side was great! We are already planning our next visit.“
