50 Best Salad Restaurants near Elmwood Park

“I went here to celebrate a birthday and I absolutely loved it. I got the chicken sandwich and my partner got the 8am burger with fries. They give you a mountain of fries. Both sandwiches were big and left me feeling full. The chicken is fried like a fish and I love the breading. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for varieties of burgers and a pretty chill restaurant environment. Parking was easy to find (street parking) and they have some games in the back while you wait for your food which is nice.“

“Muy rico todo 😋😋 fresco ..“

“Amazing breakfast spot that was a random find while in the area. Great service and really cute atmosphere. Kids meals are free with adult purchase & the portions of my son’s teddy bear pancakes were huge! Actually portions of everything is huge. The churro French toast was incredibly delicious and included as a side to my omelette…small upcharge well worth it!! If ever in the area again it will be a must to to revisit!“

“This place is amazing! The salads are delicious, nutritious and filling. We look forward to coming here as often as possible and recommending it to every veggie lover out there!!“

“Tasty Charcuterie boards and salads and sandwiches along with an interesting wine selection.“

“I tried the pizzas last night. We had 4 different kinds and they were honestly soooo delicious! Can’t wait for you to open! This is GREAT pizza!!!“

“First time having dinner here and it was so good. Fast service and nice atmosphere. Looking forward to coming back!“

“Hands down one of the best restaurants in Chicago. It’s rare to find a restaurant where every dish is so flavorful and on point but Elia does it so gracefully! Amazing atmosphere and great service - Ebrar made our dinner experience so enjoyable. Can’t wait to go back!“

“The concept for the menu is a unique trip along the Pan-American highway with stops at various Latin countries. Each dish and drink is thoughtful in its ingredients and presentation. The jicama salad was refreshing, but not at all plain. The pastel de choclo was a wonderful surprise of a warm dish. The frozen el arenal was seriously dangerous in how delicious it was, I can’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere was beautiful and the music was perfect. We are so thrilled to have this gem in the neighborhood and can’t wait to see what they do in the future!“

“Awesome service, line behind me, but Malachi handled it very well. I can tell he serves with a passion. Explained the ingredients after letting him know I was avoiding the sugar.

The food is celestially delicious 😋. I ordered the garlicky chicken shawarma bowl. He kindly offered me another salad in place of the rice which was, kao, broccoli, and feta cheese mixed with jalapeño.

Definitely sticking to this place.“

“I never have complaints when I eat from BIBIBOP! My food is always fresh and delicious. Whether it's the Salmon, chicken, steak or Korean Barbeque, the proteins are tasty. Being able to load up on veggies, toppings and sauces of my choosing from the generous offerings is a big plus in my book. I like to choose the sweet potato noodles as my base and work from there. They also offer rice bases and veggie bases. They are totally vegan, vegetarian and gluten free friendly. I highly recommend BIBIBOP for lunch or dinner on the go. Download the app and place your order for super quick in-store pickup. The points from ordering in-app add up really quickly for free tasty rewards. If you enjoy lighter fare with lots of flavor, make a trip to BIBIBOP. You won't be disappointed.“

“Family friendly restaurant with food choices for everyone but the made fresh pasta was the best part!“

“Best GF Pizza I have ever had and I have been GF for 15 years! Highly recommend!“

“This is an amazing & food is always good! They just added outdoor seating so our puppy could join us.“

“Had a private party here to celebrate my 50th birthday 🎉 All the guests loved the atmosphere. Everyone raved about the food and drinks 🥰 Their attentive service was much appreciated. Fabulous experience!!“

“I went here first time and I was so impressed. Great good. I ordered fish n chips and they brought out malt vinegar even without me asking. We ordered salmon platter. It was phenomenal. Wow. Definitely recommend this place 10/10“

“Wonderful all around. Great service. Great food. Nice decor. Perfect street parking“

“There’s lots of options to choose from (more on the sweeter side). Heads up, this is a grab and go bakery, therefore, there is no indoor seating (only a bar to stand at outside). They will also not heat up the pastries :/

The hot fudge babka $6⭐️4/5
It did not really taste like it had chocolate… it was still delicious, but it tasted more like an apples strudel and banana bread mix—yummy but not chocolate babka lol

The smoked ham brown grainy mustard + Gruyère croissant ($7.50) ⭐️2/5
This didn’t hit it for me :/ If you know you love gruyère cheese, then I say give it a go, if you’re unsure, probably try something else?

Update:
Hot fudge croissant ⭐️3.5/5
A bit on the drier side and I felt that they skimped on the chocolate a bit. But it was a delicious pastry

Blackberry cheesecake danish ⭐️3/5
This was yummy and an easy to-go eat. I wish there was a bit more cheese tho

Banana bread cold brew ⭐️4/5
Idk how they do it, but this legit tastes like banana bread in a drink. Perfect for the fall season.“

“I had a great experience at this restaurant! The service was excellent — Dastan was our server, and he did an amazing job. He was very professional, friendly, and made sure everything arrived on time and exactly as ordered. It’s rare to see such attention to detail and genuine care for customers. Highly recommend coming here — ask for Dastan if you can!“

“the best food in town 😋😋😋“

“The food has been great and the service, too! Prices good Generous portions!“

“Excellent Deep Dish Pizza!“

“The food was good, but portions were small or less than most places.
The atmosphere was quite simple and plain but comfortable . The place was small and clean.
Service was order and pickup to your table.
Many carry outs while I was there.

Parking: Street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Acceptable.“

“I love thai food and have been to many different places. This Thai restaurant has to be by far one of the best restaurants and food I had ever had. The customer service was phenomenal; the main server was highly attentive and polite. I loved their pad thai; literally tasted perfect compared to other pad thai dishes from other restaurants. My friend and I ordered their pork pot stickers as well, and they were absolutely divine. The dough was almost sweet and it paired well with the sauce and pork given in the dish. Do not even get me started on the chicken satay. The marinade and peanut sauce for this appetizer exceeded my expectations. Super juicy and flavorful. Overall the food plus the atmosphere was amazing; if I could I would give this place more stars. Thank you Rice and Noodles Thai Food!“

“Best dumplings I’ve ever tasted!“

“This is one of the best family-run restaurants in Des Plaines. Sunrise Grill has been serving the community for 18 years, and you can taste the experience in every dish. Chef Jose cooks with passion, and Sylvia’s hospitality is unmatched. Ask the staff for their recommendations—they’ve never steered me wrong!“

“This morning was our 1st time there for our Family’s Annual Christmas Morning breakfast/lunch. Everyone enjoyed their meal and the service was fantastic.“

“Found at an MSP. I travel a lot and this was a great solution for a fresh evening meal. Pleasantly surprised by the Pesto Chicken Pasta salad! 🥗“

“I love this place and I love Giant. The crust is great, good texture and flavorful, and the cheese they use is top notch. Pepperonis were also high quality, if there’s a problem it lies with the sauce. There's hardly any, not even close to enough on either their tavern or NY style. Order the NY style with extra sauce. The tavern is so thin that there’s barely any room for sauce, if you care. Still solid tavern.“

“This is a review for Ekiben Catering!

I really wanted to have Japanese food (specifically Onigiri) for a Studio Ghibli-themed baby shower, and reached out to several local restaurants. Ekiben was by far the most responsive and fairly priced!

Shasha was lovely and helped explain the prices and option recommendations. We opted to have the food delivered, and it was delivered exactly on time. Thank you so much! Everyone loved the food!“

“Delicious and reasonable sushi. We order for takeout and it is always freshly prepared.“

“Seriously so amazing! Tender juicy meat, good pricing, great portions. Worth every penny!!“

“I recently ordered a 40 person catering order for my abuela’s birthday party. Prices were reasonable, communication was great, and everyone loved the food! Thank you so much for help make her birthday memorable! I’ve also eaten here and their back patio is so cute. Go check it out!“

“Best Chicago deep dish pizza.“

“Having prepared, ready to eat salads in the fridge with high quality ingredients is so wonderful during busy workweeks. These salads are incredibly delicious with creatively paired flavors, and are such a joy to eat! I highly recommend this service!!“

“The food was incredible! Best ive had in a while. We got the mixed plater, it comes with rice grilled chicken and kabob. The chicken was very Juicy and the flavors were spot on. Also got some appetizers, the baba ganoush was so flavorful and very delicious. The service was outstanding! Highly recommend 10/10“

“This is the real deal. A must try gem in Forest Park, IL. Thank you for making my son's birthday so special. I can't wait to take my family to dine out at your place.“

“Alejandra: I often go here for dinner Sunday nights with my 9 year old son! I was attended by Johanna and Max, they went above and beyond to make sure that everything was great at our table! Thank you for such a nice service!

Oliver: I go here on Sundays like my mom um well today Max and Johanna were the best but when I got to my table people were sitting there but the hostess took us to a table witch was good thank god.but I heard them say there was a mango icee but I did not see it on the menu so idk how that if that’s new but they have great service and there the best.“

“Delicious, flavorful & healthy food at a reasonable price. I got a bowl with purple rice, kale, broccoli, carrots, pickled onions, kimchi and Korean BBQ beef. Tried teriyaki sauce on the side and it was tasty but the veggies are all so seasoned so well that sauce wasn’t necessary and the meat was also super flavorful and marinated. Highly recommend. They list all ingredients and calories as you’re ordering so you can stay mindful! Great place.“

“we have gone here 2x in the last 2 months - the 1st was for carry-out and it was fantastic - the 2nd was for dine-in lunch specials and it was fantastic.“

“Great pizza! Moved into the neighborhood and was trying to find a good local pizza joint. I found them via advertisement in the weekly ads. Business is always very professional and kind.“
