Tasteless, unimaginative, not particularly fresh tasting, wildly overpriced. They must own the building or something because I just have a hard time believing a place like this can stay open. The worst restaurant I've ever eaten in? My spouse who is a vegetarian didn't like it. Pleasant service, clean, nice decor. Just horrible food.

My wife has memories of eating here with her mother in 1992. So this place has been here for a long time. The problem with that is the food is a bit out dated. I think a new menu would really help the situation.Each menu item needed some seasoning and flavor. Everything was bland. Vegetarian food does not have to be this way.The service was great and the location is great, but it's not gonna be a place I'm going to frequent.

The Ambience is extremely cosy. Perfect for a coffee date!I tried a Mexican hot chocolate and a regular mocha and they both were really good!

Friendly, efficient, accurate service with good recommendations. Chilaquiles, quiche, tacos, and carrot cake were delicious! On a very rainy day, we each lucked out and found street parking right in front of the entrance. Always have good food and service here.

It's about the food and the staff. Amazing all around. Couldn't decide what to order so we shared. Everything was so delicious. The place could use a refresh and parking was a bit of a challenge. But I will be back. I can't believe it took me so long to try this place!!!

It has been about 40 years (I'm not kidding) since I've visited the “Faith”. Different space, but still on Dempster. Was excited to see that the Macrobiotic Plate was still on the menu. Just as delicious as I remembered. The vibe is somewhat different than it was in the old days, but isn't that the case everywhere? Nice stroll down memory lane for this old Evanstoner.

Haven't been here for several years. Our server was great and I loved the Valentine's Day touches. We had a nice booth. Special menu for Valentine's Day too. Excellent quinoa and veg soup! Portions were plentiful. I ordered Be Bim Bop, which I loved in the old days, off of a brand new menu. But nothing tasted the same.as it used to. Seems they tried to fancy it up (different sauce on seitan, for example). My husband had a type of lasagna with corn tortillas instead of pasta noodles. Awesome idea, but again, the flavors were strong and strange. Oh, well. Things change.

Blind Faith Cafe is my go-to to meet my cousin from the northern suburbs. Both of us always have a great time and great food experiences. The wait staff is always friendly and accommodating. Hope to go back again in a few months.

It is always an enjoyable experience at Blind Faith. There are so many plant-based choices and none have disappointed us. The service is friendly and efficient as well. Highly recommended!

I’ve been coming here for over a decade. It’s a GREAT vegetarian restaurant for vegetarians and carnivores alike. I usually get the barbecue seitan sandwich, but I’d also recommend the Mongolian stir fry if it’s your first time. The desserts are also great! Will (of course) be coming again.
