50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Lockport

“Great food, great people! Sharing the RAW vegan experience and benefits, only true spot in all of the Chicago land area, stop in and give it a try! You won’t be disappointed!!“

“Hidden gem with excellent food. We frequent a few times a month— because the food is just that good. Our fav apps include Spring Rolls, Crab Rangoon, & Pan Fried Dumplings. For entrees, can’t go wrong with Homemade Dumpling Soup, Thai Style Fried Rice, Pad Thai, or Thai BBQ Pork with noodles. My husband is more adventurous and his MVP’s are Massaman Curry & Thai Red Curry. We are slowly making our way through the entire menu but hard not to just order our favorites every time. Thai Milk Tea is also delish. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“So many flavors to recommend! Key Lime Pie, Cheese Cake and Chocoholic were amazing.“

“Beautiful atmosphere and food tastes amazing!!! Hospitality excellent!!! Highly recommend!!! Our new favorite restaurant close to home ~ love“

“George’s has been ‘Lockport’…..everyone goes to George’s. Love the place!! Been going there for years! Today I went there for breakfast and was told by the waitress I was not allowed to bring in my own creamer. She said it was because people sneak in alcohol disguised as other beverages. Ok…I get that. They don’t want alcohol in the restaurant….but when she claimed it was COVID related that was utter nonsense. Is this yet another instance of stupidity where COVID is on outside creamer bottles but not on everything other item coming through the door? D****“

“I visit this place at least twice a week when my group plays DnD for a little over a year now and they never disappoint. Food is fantastic and the church's are always hot and fresh. My favorite thing is to get the small $1.50 bag of hot carrots with any meal. Also the horchata is delicious. Customer service is wonderful. The ladies make sure you get all your food.“

“Lots of cool daft beers, it is abit pricy but so is everything now a days. Sit at the bar for the best service. The table waitresses are a hit and miss.“

“I had such a great experience at Panera Bread thanks to Hannah! She had amazing customer service skills—friendly, cheerful, and genuinely happy to help. My order was perfectly accurate, and she made sure everything came out just right. It’s always nice to be greeted with a smile, and Hannah’s positive attitude really stood out. The food was delicious as always, and her great service made the visit even better. Highly recommend stopping in if you want great food and friendly faces like Hannah’s!“

“Recently went to a popular chain Mediterranean place.. I won’t name it. But AMBA is SOOOOOA MUCH BETTER! Instantly regretting my choice to go to this popular chain place and I can’t wait to eat at Amba again! So much flavor and care that goes into my meal at Amba! Love them“

“**⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phenomenal & Fresh!**
This place is an absolute gem! The food truly feels like fresh, home-cooked comfort food. I had the Pad See Ew and Pad Kee Mao, and both were spectacular perfectly cooked and packed with authentic flavor.
My only regret is that I wish I had found this spot sooner! Highly recommend.“

“Great food. Large Portions. 10/10 would eat again.“

“I absolutely love this ice cream place. I’ve been in the area for a long time, and this is hands down the best ice cream shop in Will County. Once you try it, you won’t want to go anywhere else. Everything is delicious, the atmosphere is great, and it’s become my go to spot every time.“

“I absolutely love this place!“

“Happy Falafel will leave your tummy and your wallet Happy!! 😃 The Samosas, Falafel, and Shawarma meals are all delectable and filling without being heavy or expensive. Try the Happy Drink to finish off your meal or as a summertime refreshment!! Staff is awesome and very friendly and we will definitely be back for more ✨😊“

“I'm so glad they opened near me! The staff is incredibly kind and helpful as someone with dietary restrictions. They always have generous portions for affordable prices and I don't think I've ever found anywhere comparable with how fresh their ingredients are.“

“This is a really nice place for special occasions, a date, or getting together with friends. The menu is varied, everything I've ever had has been excellent from the Beef Bourguignon Crepe to the French Onion soup. The atmosphere is lovely. The down side to me has been the wait staff is almost always a bit pretentious. Perhaps I should have paid more attention to see if it was the same waitress that seemed that way. I shall in the future.“

“My husband and I had a great time here for his birthday dinner. We were instantly greeted when we walked in. The service was great the whole time and the food was amazing. We will definitely be back!“

“First time me and my husband have been here. As we walked in our hands were shipped by the owner, which was a great welcome. The waffle was amazing. Presentation of the waffle was great. The eggs were cooked properly. Coffee was wonderful, including a craft at the table, lemon water was placed on the table as well. If I am in this area as I live two hours away I will certainly return. I recommend this place highly for a wonderful breakfast. Nice big menu but not too overwhelming. Give it a try. Say hi to the owner.“

“Great breakfast 🍳 skillets!!! Great food and great service. Highly recommend 😊“

“They have the best double baked potato in Joliet. Their poor boys are too Die for. They have been around for a very long time. You can't go wrong with any of their meals. Even the fish is awesome 👍👍👍. pI highly recommend🍽️🍽️👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“The food was simply fantastic. I ordered the Lithuanian beef sandwich, it was constructed to perfection. The beef was tender and flavorful, with just the right amount of seasoning. It’s clear they use high-quality ingredients. For a international European store, there is a vast variety of food you will explore there. Overall, Peter’s Deli in Lemont is a hidden gem with the best family-friendly atmosphere and a landmark on this planet. I’ll definitely be returning!

Dietary restrictions: While I don’t have any dietary restrictions, I did notice they have several options available for those who might need gluten-free or vegetarian choices, which is great to see at a deli.

Parking: Parking is convenient with plenty of spots available in their lot always. I had no problem finding a spot even during a busy lunchtime. There’s a good-sized parking area right next to the deli, making it easy to stop by whether you're grabbing takeout or dining in.

Kid-friendliness: They embraced my kids with friendliness and joy.“

“Everything was great, I got a beef sandwich. The ratio of beef to cheese to hot peppers was perfect. 'Dunked' very well, not a big soupy wet mess like some restaurants serve. The bread kept its structural integrity through out my entire meal while still retaining the flavorful juice. The baklava is incredible!“

“Great service, great food!“

“Best sushi I’ve had in my life. I’m a big fan.“

“Four of us from Dwight ate there Thursday night. Everything was outstanding. The pork chops were well seasoned and moist. My veal and smashed sweet potato was to die for. And the bread pudding was delicious. Missed several items on the menu, I will be back. Kudos to you and your staff for a fantastic evening!“

“Always great ice cream, malik was a lovely employee and offered me a sample right away when I asked what a flavor (chocolate lovers dream) was. I never knew oberweis even did samples so that was very exciting and helpful! Other employees were very kind when a young girl dropped her class dish and it shattered, also apologized to me for the wait that caused even though there was barely a wait. Wish they stayed open later though“

“I put in an order on the Potbelly app around 1pm and the time defaulted to immediately (not 5:15pm) like I had requested. Ashlei answered the phone and was able to move the order back. I called in at 4:30pm just to confirm (trust but verify) and Ashlei answered again. Confirming that the order was still pushed back and would be ready at the desired pickup time! Great customer care and service!
I have ordered food from this location many times (this is my main Potbelly) and have never been disappointed by food or service!“

“Several gluten-free options! Pancakes, waffels, toast- they have it all. I always ask to sit in Tracy's section, she's never failed me! The food always comes quickly and my coffee has always been hot!“
