50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Riverside

“The meal here was pretty good and our server, Lucas, was a notch next to perfection. He helped with questions we all had. He made sure our drinks never got low, and all with a great attitude.The foods we're all good for the most part, just salt on fries was way too much. Our friends enjoyed their meals. My burger was a bit short of the mark, as they could not make it how I wanted it done. We might go back for another take of the menu.The desserts were delicious and topped off the meal.Parking: Stay away from the pigs in a blanket, as just smoked sausage wrapped in crust, but greasy sausage.“

“I've passed this restaurant multiple times to and from work for weeks. I'm so so glad I finally stopped in. Tamales were delicious. Jalapeno and cheese ones are my all time favorite. So many options to choose from. The owner was so wonderful and made you feel at home. Amazing artwork for sale as well!“

“I have the avocado lotto and it was plenty so much that I have enough for supper. The fruit was fresh and plentiful. The tunafish and cottage cheese were excellent. The patty melt with onions was cooked perfectly. It came with a cup of soup and a generous portion of coleslaw. We will definitely come back here again.“

“A delivery app made a mistake with my order. LaBarra took charge and the general manager personally delivered 2 delicious pizzas to make up for the outside apps mistake. Above and beyond! Thank you!“

“Amazing traditional Mexican food and drinks, friendly and professional staff!“

“Great fried chicken! Chicken falls right off the bone and is super juicy. The skin is very crispy and is not overly seasoned. The French fries had the perfect crunch on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I'm not a fan of Cole slaw at all, but the Cole slaw here is good! Lastly the fritters, I had no idea what a fritter was, but man it was good. I see why they are sold buy the dozens. If you haven't tried this place yet, do yourself a favor and try it. You will not be disappointed.“

“my best friend and I just had the BEST experience at the whale! Our waitress taylor was incredible and the manager (so sorry but we never got his name because he was just being so nice to us) was incredible as well. We will definitely return with friends and recommend anyone to try it out! classy, but not snobby, cool decor, warm kind and accommodating staff, and great food and cocktails are just the cherry on top! try the carrot cake after your meal :) Thank you again to taylor and the manager again <3“

“As Islanders living here, this place is a piece of of home. Onolicious grinds!“

“Cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. Beautiful atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food and drinks. Beber, Comer, Querer is on the wall and truly a motto for this place. The drinks are on point, the Al Pastor is legit and the Choclate Tres leche is a must.“

“Had so much for fun sitting at the kitchen counter watching the talented chefs at work. Our waiter made excellent suggestions. And the food… well it was out of this world! Definitely going back .. so many more dishes to try!“

“Amazing food! Loved flute seared tuna sandwich, can’t wait to go back.!“

“amazing food and great tea! I will definitely be back“

“I'm a sucker for Heritage's Happy Hour Oyster for a while so had to circle back for the restaurant week. The whole experience was giving East meets West as it covers a good range of dishes/inspired cuisine. I was pleasantly surprised with how each courses was planned out, with very balanced flavor combinations, leaving me full but not uncomfortably stuffed. My favorite we're definitely the tuna crudo, braised beef and fiancier, hopefully that make the official menu one day. Overall great experience and the downstairs speakeasy space makes it so fun to eat and catch up.“

“We had a delicious breakfast and the service was Excellent. Looking forward to coming back for lunch and mock tails.“

“One of the best, if not THEE best burger in Chicago“

“The food is amazing: tasty and healthy. I love it. Thank you for also baking the Masala biscuit for our dinner.“

“I used to come here with my dad geno I moved to Cali just got back and it was a definite go to! If you are ever in the area definitely stop by you won’t be disappointed one of the best tacos I have ever had!! And the owner is as nice as can be ❤️can’t wait to go back!!“

“was here a couple of days ago, and this place just never fails to please. the steak sizes are not huge, but perfect size for a meal. it is truly family owned, mama has been here everytime i've been here. it is clean, service is attentive, and the drinks are honest. and hopefully they never change the comfort and ambiance as that is really the best! once you have been here, you'll never forget it and will come back. the only complaint that i have is that the flat iron steak had too many tendons (?). the rib eye and the new york were perfect. order those. and do get the shrimp appetizer, that is just fantastic. if you're coming with friends, any table will do, but if you're coming with a special person, try to get one of the screened in tables for more privacy. this is one of the few restaurants in chicago that offers that. and so you know, this place is extremely comfortable and easily accessible.“

“Best Sandwiches in Chicago!!!“

“Amazing dine-in pizza spot. Unique pizzas by the slice means everyone can try something different. Their pulled pork pizza is the best slice I've ever eaten, bar none. Cheese curds are delicious too!“

“El Xangarrito is a gem. The presentation and flavors of every dish I've tried are some of the most creative Mexican food I have had. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, and the staff make you feel like you have been invited into their home. The prices are very reasonable for the level of food and service you receive. Their mole sauces leaves me craving more, and I am not usually a fan of mole. If you have not tried El Xangarrito, I highly recommend putting it at the top of your list.“

“La Parra is an authentic restaurant. Each time I go, I try something different, because I know they won't disappoint me. Everything tastes great and the staff are extremely attentive.“

“Was there for a birthday. We were seated inside not on the patio. When the monsoon type storm hit the staff did an amazing job accommodating those that were on the patio. The city-living branch of our family thinks it's well worth the trip out here to LGP. A wonderful restaurant.“

“We each got a veggie lunch special . I had the tofu in a red sauce it was best i literally ever had . The price was more than fair for the amount of food ! It was so well seasoned and cooked perfectly . The rice was so fluffy and amazing . I was also loving the crispy bread and dips as an appetizer that’s given before you order . Such a nice place to eat I highly recommend this place . Mild was mild it had just the right amount of spice . The hot was making my date sweat but he asked for hot and he got it lol Google and pre game the menu , if you are unsure what everything is incase you’re new to this type cuisine . But I assure you it will all taste good! Will definitely be back again !“

“Excellent spot for breakfast with healthy (and delicious) options, strong coffee, and courteous and responsive service. Warm diner setting with option to pay online (QR code on check). The avocado toast with side salad was an excellent meal I most recently had - hit the spot to start my day strong.“

“We had a fabulous dinner celebrating Greek Easter with family. The food was very authentic and traditional in taste. Our waiter Great ~ as was the service!!!!And all of this was on a busy Greek Easter Sunday! We highly recommend this restaurant!!!! We will be back!!!! ???“

“Was in the neighborhood and I stopped by. Italian beef sandwich is amazing. Loaded with beef. Only thing that happened was that I ordered an Italian combo and I got just a regular Italian beef. Giardiniera was not spicy at all and I do like spicy. Otherwise, will probably be back.Parking: There is a parking lot on the side of the building.“

“Amazing food. Great atmosphere. What more can be said?“

“Delicious food, unusual beers and cocktails, and beautiful decor. The kolsch, crepe and Rangoon Royale were especially good.“

“I love the owner & I truly enjoy their food. They make their restaurant very homey, & the food is immaculate to me! I enjoy their service & the loaded fries & the black bean bbq burger is awesome. I love that they have variety of vegan options! Keep it up guys!!!“

“What can I tell you! 5 rolls for $45. Better than most OVERPRICED rolls at restaurants. Always fresh and they don't hold back on the contents.Don't play with the meter maids on Lawrence, they write tickets like it's a contestThis is the BEST place for party trays BTW“

“Shavaonne is one of the sweetest and nicest servers I have come across“

“The pretzel was very good! Light and fluffy on the inside. The brisket taccos were pretty good they have a decent kick of spice to them. Beer is good, staff is friendly. A 1 star deduction for getting my fiancé her flight but then forgetting my pint, and no napkins or silverware when the food was brought out. (This is a bit arguable as we were at the bar.)“

“So delicious! We have never had Costa Rican food and was unsure what we should get. The waiter was so kind and helpful. He gave us great recommendations. The food was amazing and the lemonade was the best! When we hear someone going to Chicago, we always recommend this place!“

“TNT an exceptional new series of food, drinks, and entertainment. The owner is the highlight for this black owned establishment! She’s who truly set the tone for this beautiful decorative restaurant. Be sure to try the delicious lamb chops seasoned to perfection all while complimented with thee most creamy garlicky mashed potatoes. Not to mention their Mac n Cheese doesn’t fall short of tasty and cheesy.If you haven’t yet be sure to check em’ out tell ‘em’ Nells sent you!“

“Fantastic food and service! Have been a few times, and it never disappoints!“

“High quality Thai food. Limited menu (no pad Thai) but that doesn't detract from the offerings. Grandma's pork belly is different from your typical pork belly dish. The pork belly is cut into bitter sized pieces and deep fried. Served with the jaew sauce is really delicious. My wife loves coming for the papaya salad and Thai fried rice. The pad siew is also really well prepared here.“

“First off, the service was excellent. Michael did an amazing job. He knew the menu from front to back. He spoke loud enough so everyone at the table could here him even in a noisy, crowded restaurant. He deserves a big shout out! The food came out quickly and was presented in a very nice manner, congrats to the food runners. The food was absolutely delicious, congrats to the kitchen staff. Over all it was a great Mothers Day choice and we will certainly be back and not just for a special occasion.“

“Finally got to go and it was good. Went on a Wednesday, got in line for a walk in reservation at 4:57, put my name in by 5:05 and was seated at 5:50. We got the house ramen, and the monthly (May) special. Honestly, the monthly special may have taken the crown tonight! All service was great and super fast - true ramen culture ?. We also tried the pork rice which was good! I want to come back for the brothless ramens.“

“Wonderful, creative menu as well as great service.“

“Tony’s pulls no punches when it comes to late night or early morning dining. I’ve never seen such a variety of options from a 24hr restaurant which makes it the clear choice as they have little something for everyone. This is where I’d put a photo of one of my meals…but I ate it too fast to get the chance.“

“Went to Offset on a snowy Wednesday night. The staff were so kind and the food was great! A friend has a gluten allergy and our server was really accommodating and noted it for the chef without us asking. Highly recommend!“

“We were at a holiday/retirement party. Large group. We were well cared for. I highly recommend them for a date night, happy hour or a large party!“

“Cozy brewery & distillery nestled in a neighborhood and against the train tracks & highway.Great selection of unique beers and cocktails made from in house spirits. Some of the beers you can find in stores, others are unique to the location.They do still do scheduled beer releases you may only be able to get on location.You can bring in food, but there's also a selection of pizza that is pretty good.Only gripe would be that it was a bit difficult to find, if you hug the road that goes against the tracks its very narrow and basically an alley. Part of the charm though, makes the place feel like it's hidden.“

“Great food and service is so friendly ❤️“

“Great food pizza was absolutely amazing BEST thin crust pizza I ever had, was worth the hour drive“
