50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Willowbrook

“I absolutely love this place!“

“A small celebration was planned at Giordano's in Willowbrook for my nieces' Baptisms. My Hubby and I walked in early with balloons and flowers, two hours early, in fact. Yet this did not faze anyone there. They could not have been nicer. "You're a little early..." "We came to decorate." Stephanie showed us to a sunny corner of the restaurant, all set up for the expected 20 guests. She offered us an ice-cold beverage. Several hours later, the party was in full swing, with a wide variety of fantastic pizza spread out among the many tables. It was served after a delicious and very fresh Caesar salad. Yum! All of our many favorite flavors/crusts were represented, which kept Stephanie busy serving the tables. The pizzas were hot with crispy crusts. The mostaccioli had stretchy cheese with an almost creamy texture. It had a little kick, too. Fabulous! A dessert table followed the pizza, which was just right. We never felt rushed, and so stayed to visit a while longer. This Willowbrook Giordano's was super clean with a cheerful, efficient staff. Thank you, Stephanie and Manager Patrick. We will return!“

“Awesome time. No rush dining. All you can eat!“

“Amazing food and service“

“Firstly, they must have a new owner or chef. Their online menu is not offered, and they have a new menu.Don't be fooled by them being located in a hotel, the food was fantastic. I placed a to-go order and it came out quickly and 100% accurate. It was delicious, hot, and well proportioned. The sauce on one of the honey bourbon chicken sandwiches was great.For a Friday night, the dine-in area was dead (and partially dark), but the staff was friendly and welcoming.I would definitely eat here again. I just hope they can stick around long enough for a return visit.“

“Burger was overcooked, edges were burnt/crunchy. Also the guy putting the side of hot peppers dropped them on the floor. Walked back to the beef table and pretended to replace. Dropped the same container in the bag, while looking at me. Been eating at Portillo's for 50 yrs... food's still very good but the service has declined noticeable over the last few years.“

“Yummy food....warm and cozy ciabetta dippers are back. Love the soup and 1/2 sandwich deal. My only complaint was when the iced tea was filled, some tea went on the lid and when I went to drink it, it dripped on my shirt. Ah well...should have looked. Everything else was perfect. Can't beat the chicken soup on a cold Chicago winter day.“

“This is one of my favorite vegan Mexican restaurants. Chef Patricia is so sweet. I almost always get the Carne Asada burrito but I’ve loved everything I have tried. The nachos & tacso are so good too. The peanut butter cookies are probably the best I’ve ever had. I love the chocolate mini Bundt cake.“

“😀 I've been a satisfied customer for many years. They never disappoint! They also have a nice selection of both dairy free and no sugar added options!“

“The food and service were outstanding. We ate there on Saturday and came back to eat again on Sunday because it was so good.“

“My sister Shelly Nagy purchased tickets to a Sunday afternoon drag brunch to celebrate my birthday! Marco not only held the door open for his guests, but he was also very kind and generous! He offered 2nd helpings (my only regret is that I did not indulge on that offer). Our meal was plentiful, delicious and presented beautifully! The bartenders cocktails (garnished w/ fresh flowers!) are pure elegance and his customer service skills are excellent! The drag show was a blast! The music was a hit (inside and out) and the upscale atmosphere will always have me anxiously waiting to come back soon! Thank you Marcos & Shelly for the most wonderful birthday celebration anyone will ever dream of! Gorgeous Downtown LaGrange is lucky to have Marco’s Kitchen! Take me back already!“

“Absolutely love Vistro! Amazing staff, delicious food, wonderful atmosphere, and superb customer service. It never disappoints!“

“Had an amazing lunch!!! Food selection is amazing. I wound up with the Tuna Poke Bowl and it didn’t disappoint. Our waitstaff was attentive to detail. I am not a big dessert person when I go out, but the Key Lime Pie was calling our names. SOOOOO good!!! Thank you for a great meal. We will be back very soon.“

“Jo Jo and the staff are what keeps us coming back a not to mention all the vegan goodies on the menu. The corn chowder is phenomenal and we love the ube buns!!!“

“I tried Vasco’s Peri Peri for lunch and was blown away by the Two Tenders Rice Bowl. Tons of flavor, generous portions, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. It’s hard to beat a fresh, hot meal like this for under $11. Perfect quick lunch option Monday through Friday!“

“The gm Stephan is amazing. Great experience and great good and service“

“Everything you could want on their menu trust me“

“Wonderful, classy yet casual experience! Delicious!!!“

“So I visited this place at least three times with a carry out order and customer service was awesome first time. Second I decided to go due to the good food and definitely the customer service, again awesome. Third, I enjoyed my food as always with recommendations from the young lady ( forgot her name). All three times I was either on crutches or knee brace. They were so sweet they helped me with my food to car an even told me to pull up to place and they’ll have my order ready for me! They were very nice to help me and for that I’m grateful. They went above and beyond. They made sure I was taken care of. So I brought my daughter there and she agree with the great customer service. Thank you guy so much. We will see you guys soon.“

“I got the StrawBeet smoothie and the asparagus soup and both were absolutely delicious!!! I love that their ingredients are organic and that they have vegan options as well!“

“The best thing about this cafe is that I do not live anywhere near it, so I can't go every day. But for real, everything I have had from them from savory to sweet has been absolutely fantastic, and I am not easy to please when it comes to baked goods. I cannot comment on the coffee, because I don't drink it.

But try a cookie! Or a scone! Or a biscuit!“

“We recently got married at The Elm this past weekend (10/13/2024) and can't express in words how satisfied we were with their service. Starting from the first day that we went to see The Elm we were treated with the upmost respect and professionalism. We had our ceremony in the Kensington room, and our reception in the Madison room. The atmosphere and vibe of both rooms was everything that we could hope for. The staff was incredible, the food/drinks were AMAZING, and our guests had nothing but positive feedback. WE HIGHLY RECOMMED THIS PLACE FOR A WEDDING AND/OR ANY OTHER EVENT.“

“Great service, fantastic food, and I had a great time with my cousin there. The server was so helpful in explaining their combos and allowing us all the food combinations we wanted in a simplified manner. The boba smoothie was Devine too!“

“La mejor comida de todo lombard 🙂✌️“

“Ellyns has awesome food and a very friendly environment. Never had something I didn’t like, and can always find something new on the menu. Great drink menu and specials. Ellyns will always be a go to!“

“Food and service fantastic. They were running behind with reservations but they comped us drinks an an appetizer...which is pretty unheard of these days. Rachel, our server, was phenomenal, I liked her so much I even asked her to help me "customize" my pasta dish, which she happily did (and it turned out great! The lobster diavolo but with vodka sauce...keeping the spice level.) Caesar salad good but not traditional...and missing anchovies (I know, I'm weird. Very fresh ingredients though.) We were a party of 6 and everyone loved their food. Reasonable prices too. Will definitely be back! Only wish it weren't so cramped inside.“

“My husband and I had an amazing dinner experience at Autre Monde! Exceptional service, excellent food, and delicious desert! Cannot wait to come back!“

“Love this place even though it's pricey. It's for special occasions of which I seem to have plenty! Sat in the bar this time Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately there was a very loud annoying gentleman who had had too much to drink! For and service were great!“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“Excellent food for dine in and creative, well presented catering service options. Karim worked with me to create a menu that our guests loved.“

“The BEST Chili Rellanos I've had in a long time! yummy 😋. The skinny margaritas aren't bad either. A MUST visit Restaurant. Thank you for living up to and beyond my expectations.“

“Absolutely outstanding food. The roast leg of lamb and saganaki and dolmades were all outstanding. My boys had never had Greek food and were completely impressed as well. Best dining experience I've had recently, I don't live here but I'm adding this to my list of favorite places for whenever I'm in the area.“

“The chili is good. Entered into a chili competition at work and really didnt feel like cooking. Purchased 4 quarts of chili and told my co-workers how I slaved over making this chili, putting just the right spices in to give it its unique taste. Everyone loved it! I lost 1st place by two points, probably because the judge can't add, but whatever. And yes, those are hotdogs in the picture. We made chili dogs. Their cream of chicken soup is good too.“

“Great venue and room for our wedding shower. Staff was on point and food was excellent!“

“The food was delicious! The drinks are fresh and new, and very well balanced. The best part of our experience was the staff! Each member was knowledgeable of the drink and dinner menu and made incredible recommendations. Overall, a wonderful evening out.“

“Its a nice place, has good ambiance and had a nice window seat. The tomato soup was excellent, had a sweet kick, wished there was maybe a spot of bread with it. Service was very active and server answered questions kindly. Food wasn’t really my type, a bit “fancy”, with lots of garnish, but obviously doesn’t deserve to lose an actual star because of that. Appreciate the effort clearly put in.“

“After a week of travel for this Mom, the last thing I wanted to do was to make dinner. This isn't the first time we've been to Glen Prairie and I knew it was just the place I wanted to go. The atmosphere is warm, but quiet. Perfect for a good family catchup. The food is comforting without being too heavy and the wine, beer and cocktail selection is the perfect pairing. We've had the pleasure of being served by Anna a few times now and she does a great job. She is attentive and watchful, without being overbearing which is a difficult skill to master for a lot of servers. Aside from that, I love that it is a safe place for folks with food allergies and I feel very well taken care of in respect to that issue. I can tell that everyone from the hosts to the servers to the bartenders to the kitchen staff are very well trained in creating a safe and welcoming experience for each guest. Glen Prairie is quickly becoming one of our go to family favorite restaurants and we will definitely be back!“

“Love this place! Delicious food, gluten free options, and excellent service. Chef Paco is the best! I highly recommend the tamal de mango!!“

“The Best Lox Bagel Ever !“

“Unbelievable. My son and I had tried all of their popular items. First, the Beef Noodle Soup, to die for. The flavors and rich and balanced and the best soup ive ever had and I look for the best ramen, pho, noodle soups, and etc... the soup dumplings incredible and the perfect size. The grandma's fried rice is delightful, and worth it. The Cheng Du dumplings were good but I would skip them for the rest of the dishes listed here, and the Dan Dan Noodles unfortunately didnt have any flavor and wouldn't get those again. All in all, this place beat the expectations. Thank you for the great food!“

“My 3rd time there and had the Chile Relleno dinner.,the Best I ever tasted!!! The sauce they are in is so delicious and the peppers are so fresh and made perfect! The whole dinner was great! you can taste the quality of their food and crave more! The owner and staff are so nice and you will want to go back again.“

“The food is always delicious, and the drinks are fun. I could hang out on the patio for hours. Emilio comes out to make sure everyone is happy. Just a very special place.“

“I judge breakfast spots by their staff and their oatmeal. Louie's wait staff are amazing. They're friendly, fast, and have never made a mistake on an order. Louie also has the BEST oatmeal in all of Chicago! I don't know what all the ingredients are, but it makes magic out of oatmeal!“

“This place is amazing!!! The food is breath taking and the staff are very nice! I’m definitely coming back.“

“Loved everything about my dinner here. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. Love the variety on the menu. Staff were super friendly. Decor and atmosphere cheery and relaxed. Check it out soon - you will not regret it!“

“So good. Delicious, tasty and all kinds of yummy. Everybody at the restaurant was so nice and generous. I highly recommend this place. We come to the area once a year from Canada and I think we’ll have to make this an annual dinner.“

“We held our daughter's engagement party at Neat on Saturday night - and we were so very pleased. The staff was absolutely amazing, the room was beautiful and the food was delicious! I can’t thank their team enough!!“

“Recently celebrated a 70th birthday with the D'Alexander family. What a great event. The staff could not have been nicer, and attentive. You only thought you might need something at the table and it would appear out of no where. The food was all home made and you could tell made from traditional old recipes and a lot of love thrown in. You feel like you are in a small cafe in Italy. If you want a great Italian dining experience please take the time to enjoy Made In Italy, because my wife and I plan to go back.“

“What a lovely restaurant! Great food and drink. I ordered the Chicken Avocado Shrimp and Eggs and Pineapple Paloma! They did not disappoint! My food was filled with flavor and cooked perfectly! The chicken and shrimp were a perfect combo. My drink was perfect, as well. It all worked together for a tasty combination. I will definitely be returning to this hidden gem!!“

“The service was quick. Food was delicious. Smoothie was fantastic! Definitely will return.“
