50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Evanston

“My family of four loved our meals! My Thai bowl was super tasty! Fast and friendly service too.“

“I have been a patient at a re hab center nearby for 3 weeks.Tempting me with different foods so I would eat better, she brought me a half of a turkey sandwich and supposedly a cup of vegetable soup.

I think the soup was a pint, it was fabulous, all veggies were cooked perfectly. When she pulled out the turkey sandwich without unwrapping it I thought by the Wieght I thought she got me a full one. I don't know how they make money. She was bringing them almost every day. I'm leaving here tomorrow and am really going to miss their food. I wish they really had one by where I live.“

“We went to Zentli on a Sunday evening. The ambience was welcoming and the waitstaff friendly and helpful. We ordered vegan food which was fresh, delicious and filling. My husband thought the Zentli Salad was excellent. We both had tacos (Nopales, zetas and verduras). We shared the vegan dessert, plantains with a vegan caramel cream sauce, which was quite tasty. We will return , perhaps for a weekend brunch.“

“★★★★★ A Hidden Gem That Will Sweeten Your Life
Having frequented Parlor on Central since this summer, I've been holding onto a delicious secret that I can no longer keep to myself. This ice cream shop is nothing short of extraordinary, and I'm compelled to share my experience after countless visits (let's just say my rewards account has seen plenty of action).

What sets Parlor on Central apart is their remarkable creativity with flavors. I've made it my personal mission to sample their entire menu – yes, even the vegan and dairy-free options – and each flavor has been a delightful discovery. Their seasonal offerings are particularly impressive, introducing unexpected combinations that somehow always work perfectly.

The attention to detail extends beyond just the ice cream. Whether you prefer your scoops nestled in one of their various cone options or presented in a classic cup, the presentation is always Instagram-worthy. While I think they've recently expanded their menu beyond ice cream, I remain loyal to their frozen creations, which have yet to disappoint.

But what truly elevates this establishment is the exceptional customer service. The staff's genuine enthusiasm for their craft is evident in every interaction. They're always ready with a warm smile and eager to help you discover your next favorite flavor through their generous sampling policy. It's rare to find service this consistently outstanding, especially in an ice cream parlor.
Pro tip: Don't forget to join their rewards program. Trust me, at the rate you'll want to return, those free scoops add up quickly. I might be their most frequent customer (averaging twice weekly visits – but please don't tell my doctor!).

In a city with plenty of dessert options, Parlor on Central stands out as a must-visit destination. It's more than just an ice cream shop; it's a place where every visit feels special, and every scoop tells a story. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and experience what might just become your new favorite ice cream destination -- regardless of the weather! Yes, today with the temperature in the 20's and windchill in the teens, I had the mint chocolate. Burrr-Yumm!!!“

“Good food, fast, decently priced!“

“it’s good! This is one of my favorite places to go in Evanston, not just because of the food but the staff and place itself. The interior is traditional dark wood timber and brick walls, and is quite airy and bright. I love me a booth. It gets big cute points for being freaking…cute. The service is friendly and patient, the food is limited but what they do serve is …cute and delicious. The Dolsot BBB is wonderfully crispy and fresh, a wonderful light lunch, no weigh down, heavy drowsiness, the hotdog stew is spicy and surprising filling. Everything is in modest portions and thereby justify the affordability. Royal milk tea cools it all off! Go.“

With each flavorful bite, I realized the profound joy that can be found in life's simplest pleasures. In that moment, surrounded by the warmth of good company and the harmony of flavors, I made a promise to myself. I vowed to approach every aspect of life with the same appreciation and zest, knowing that even in the mundane, there is beauty to be found and cherished.“
