50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Gages Lake

“Usually, we've been to Jesse Oaks for parties or an evening cocktail, but now that we have a toddler, we've switched gears and have been grabbing breakfast.I need to say that everyone is ALWAYS nice and friendly! They are SO attentive and thoughtful of our little one as well. One of the girls offered to let our girl color!But onto the food! It continues to exceed our expectations and is honestly a great value for how much you get. We like that we can really ENJOY breakfast, especially since the dining area is spacious. It's easy to carry a kiddo and their supplies or pick up dropped toys without bumping into someone's back. PLUS, it's finally PATIO SEASON, and breakfast isn't excluded here!Kid-friendliness: Breakfast is completely kid friendly, even stress free depending on what kind of a day your kid is having!“

“We are from WI and found Big Ed's because it was close to the hotel we stayed at. Unfortunately they we out of a few favorites but we found others and all 3 meals were outstanding. I had a full rack of ribs which were amazing and the wings were just as good. Service was great and super friendly...every employee was helpful and had smiles on their faces. Love the mom and pop local family business and already planning trips back to try the favorites they were out of as well as past the word on to everyone we know that loves BBQ. Well worth the hour drive!“

“Really delightful little middle eastern joint. Ordered the shwarma wrap. They bring you out sauces in bottles, so you can use as much as you wish. The wrap was delicious. The feel inside is cozy. The real jewel is the service. The woman behind the counter was incredibly friendly and you can see she takes pride in getting to know her guests. Great mom and pop feel.“

“Their food and bakery is authentic old world Italian food. The anise cookie are great.“

“Hands down the best grow store that I’ve ever been to and I’ve been to quite a few. The guys are really good people and they actually help you instead of trying to get you to buy a bunch of useless stuff. Gotta support them every chance I get.“

“Came here with my girlfriend and mom, not really sure on what to expect. We walked in to a nice restaurant and a friendly staff. They explained anything that we needed help with and we're very patient. Food was very good, from the addictive cabbage, to the sushi roll, but where this place should go above and beyond is the ramen. Ramen tasted fresh and was very good. We got 2 chicken and one pork. Pork was a bit oily, but still very tasty. With this I got a pork and rice bowl which was to die for, it was excellent. We also got a crepe for desert, and it was the perfect bit of freshness to round out the hearty meal we had just enjoyed so much. I would love to returnPictured is the Red Miso Pork Ramen“

“Delicious and fresh food EVERYTIME. Have been coming here for years and would highly recommend their Guac and Jibaritos! Worth every pennie! Edgar and the crew are always in great spirits and happy to serve their customers. Love that they also have a vegan menu to cater to everyone. Will be returning as often as I can and recommend it highly to anyone!“

“Food was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend!!“

“Everything is always great at Wildberry as far as the food & service go! I just wish they had a better system for when they are crowded, and not have everyone come up to the desk to wait to be seated. It turns into a mosh pit. I don't like it! Maybe they need a bigger building...something but the food is always so amazing!“

“It was my first time visiting this beautiful restaurant and Very great food and friendly staff and service. Delicious food the best food in lake Villa I highly recommend it.“

“I have been going to Hayashi for years. Whenever, I have a craving for Japanese strip steaks, sushi, or Udon that is my go-to place. Excellent Food, Excellent Service, and Excellent Ambiance. I would highly recommend this Japanese steak house. They go out of their way to serve their customers. In my case, I love to have their kimchi and they bring it without even me mentioning about it. 5 Stars.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available in their menu.“

“Been here several times always fresh and consistent portions. If you're a fan of sushi and Japanese style appetizers but looking for a Subway restaurant style of informal dining ...a quick bite to eat, without all the overhead in service and prices, then I suggest trying this place.My favorite is the deluxe salmon bowl with the black rice. The fish is very fresh and I like the crab and seaweed salad. This has a very savory without being overpowering a true umami kind of tasting food. No overkill on making it hot or spicy. The meals include complimentary self-serving of miso soup. The prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get. In my opinion it's a great sushi bowl at Subway prices.“

“What a cute place. Atmosphere & great food. Abby is a very good waitress. What a pleasant experience . Will definitely be back. Thank you.“

“I've been going to Olando's for at least a decade now, and have yet to have a bad experience there. My most recent trip with my fiancee was no exception.The servers are friendly and helpful, the food is delivered quickly (even when they are busy), the portions are huge and the quality of the food is outstanding. While I've had their pizza before and really enjoyed it, I constantly find myself drawn to the "Bootie," an Italian beef sandwich topped with mozzarella cheese. It's got enough au jus in the sandwich to make it very flavorful (though next time I'll probably ask for some extra on the side, as I love sandwiches like this extra wet).My fiancee was impressed by the salad that came with her dinner, noting that it looked and tasted like it was made fresh to order. And she couldn't believe the serving size of her plate of lasagna. If there is a complaint - and I use that term very loosely - it's that there is so much good food served in the course of a meal that neither of us had room for dessert! Some day, I will sample the wares from Diana's Dream, the ice cream parlor that is part of Olando's... but for this particular visit, we left full and happy, and can't wait to visit again!July 2019“

“Deeeelicious! Everything on the menu is awesome. Nikko’s Burger, gyros, beefs!“

“This is an absolute hidden gem of Mundelein!!! Everything is seasoned so well, delicious food, priced fairly, great service. We have tried so many Mexican restaurants all over town and this is hands down the best. We’ve eaten here lots of times- the tacos are always amazing, tortas, burritos too. I’ve had a few of the Mexican classic dinners. Never any complaints. Check it out!!“

“My partner and I have frequented several locations of Mission BBQ and the food and service are always great, but the Gurnee location's customer service is the best. They are always friendly and we never feel rushed when ordering. This is our favorite location to visit.“

“Most excellent pizza in town!“

“The food was absolutely amazing!! The margaritas were completely on point.. The service was top notch and the margarita flights are a must ❤️❤️❤️“

“My favorite pizza in the area! Gluten-free friendly, amazing food and even better service. I had a large pickup order today for myself and my family and when I arrived the kitchen manager came out to describe that they had to restart one of the pizzas, offering to let me go now with the rest of my order - plus the messup free for extra snackage - and that he would come deliver the remake himself in a bit so I didn’t have to wait. The entire staff was so friendly, kind and accommodating during the pickup and communication process. If you haven’t had Kaisers, what’re ya doin??“

“One of our families favorite places to eat. The Lodge offers great daily specials on both food and drinks! The staff is always friendly and great and the food is always amazing 10/10 would recommend!“

“The food is so fresh and the environment is so warm. Many try to hit the mark with this type of menu and fail to deliver as great of an all around experience. The service is attentive and kind. Willing to travel to experience this small treasure!Dietary restrictions: Great option for a gluten free sandwich!“

“Love the New owner Jay. The food - that includes vegetarian as well as non- veg delicious. Authentic & portions were large. Go with your family, carry out - all good. Jay treats us like family. I see him stopping at all the tables ensuring their dining experience is enjoyable.“

“Ordered the tempura, calamari, yakisoba, and bulgogi rice bowl. The batter on the tempura is perfectly crispy and pairs wonderfully with the sauce. I was impressed by their housemade teriyaki sauce and how flavorful it is. A comforting meal for a cold dayKid-friendliness: The server was kind enough to ask if our kid needed any modifications to the food“

“absolutely the best sub sandwich in lake county“

“Best food and service EVER!!! We attended a wedding reception there. We had an amazing BIG soft pretzel and brussel spout flakes, they tasted like candy, yum. My husband had the BBQ ribs, BEST ribs and BBQ sauce EVER, I had the orange chicken again BEST orange chicken I've ever had. Our nephew had the Tim's challenge and he ate it all and got a cool tee shirt. Highly recommended. And did I mention the AWESOME customer service!!!“

“We attended a family member’s retirement dinner/party Sept 23, 2023 here. The food was delicious, the wait service was fabulous and though the menu was limited for the party everything was fabulous and there were plenty of choices. Thank you Backyard Steak Pit for making this party such a success.“

“Good ol’ reliable Poppy’s. Hooking up servings from when we get out of middle school to this day. The owner always shows love and keeps a smile on his face. Pizza puffs, ice cream, chili cheese fries, this is the spot for those Chicagoland meals that are bang for your buck. I never had a bad experience here.“

“the best food,all fresh meat the best coffe.“

“This is a five star place with delicious food and friendly staff!“

“Decided to take a ride to Cracker Barrel for the Sunday special southern fried chicken. OMG there was so much food on my plate. I had hash brown casserole and turnip greens for sides. My friend had green beans and mashed potatoes. Way too much food for one meal, but really really delicious. The place was pretty crowded. But our server did a wonderful job. It definitely was a treat to go to Cracker Barrel for Sunday dinner.“

“We live 2.5 hours south of Lake Villa, but we were meeting some friends from Florida for dinner. They were in the area for their grandson’s graduation from Great Lakes Naval Academy. Found this place via Google and it had great reviews, with good reason. We wish we lived closer because it would be a favorite for sure. Probably the best bruschetta and lasagna I’ve had in a very long time. Everyone loved their entrees. We tried multiple pasta dishes and the pizza. Prices were very reasonable and our service was exceptional. Excellent dining experience all around. Highly recommend.“

“Nice place recommend this place. Nice assortment of beers. In downtown Mundelien. Owner bartender gives nice background of the styles.“

“I've been here twice, and both times have been great! Good food and fun atmosphere. There are some vegetarian options and parking on site (just don't use the neighboring restaurant's lot for parking as they do tow). I love getting the teriyaki chicken. The grilled vegetables and fried rice is also always delicious. Everything is cooked in front of you-like any hibachi place-assuming you order something from that section. I love the miso soup that comes with the meal, as well. And it's cool that for birthdays they give out oranges with a candle. Definitely recommend reservations. It's a very popular place. There is also some seating in another section if you want the sushi bar.“

“I loved it here. Food is my heaven, and this place was out of this world! Their BBQ sauces to die for! Everything here was amazing. Staff was efficient and very pleasant. A lot of parking space and enough seats to sit and relax for a while wasn't crowded for a Saturday night! I'm definitely coming back here to try more. No complaints here, delicious chefs kiss“

“It’s always a fun time had by all. Everybody is very friendly.“
