New Raw Dishes

I had been to the Chicago Diner years ago, when I was only a vegetarian. The food was good, but it's more like a greasy-spoon diner for vegetarians in my opinion.

But my hubby and I went there last weekend and tried their Rawchos. Yum! So very, very good. Not too salty, and the cashew sour 'cream' was to-die-for. We then tried two raw desserts. I had the carrot cake- very good. My husband had the blueberry lemon 'cheesecake'- oh my goodness! That was the best 'cheesecake' I have ever had ( including those made with actual cream cheese )!!!

Yummy kitsch in a great location

Located in one of the happiest neighborhoods in Chicago (Boystown), this restaurant has got a great vibe going at all times: chill, relaxed, open and friendly. The food is great, too, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan selections, not to mention daily raw specials. They like to do the imitation food, so you'll see a lot of typically meaty meals done up right with seitan, tofu and tempeh. Don't forget to grab some of their delicious vegan baked goods on your way out!

outstanding vegan choices

This restaurant has been around for some tine, yet never fails to excite the palette. The main dishes can be spicy and visually inviting, and the deserts are always delectable.

Almost Edible

Not very inspired. My food was bland and dry. Just because it's vegan/vegetarian food doesn't mean we have to forgo deliciousness.

good food

I thought that overall the diner does a good job of creating vegan and vegetarian food. However, I would like to see more organic and locally grown food options.

The best undairy shakes

When I was vegan, I really missed having milkshakes. The Chicago Diner has the best vegan shakes around. Truly a delicious treat

Fabulous

Had the vegan lasagna and I didn't miss the cheese or dairy products one bit. I'm more open to becoming a vegan.

amazing veggie food for a newbie vegitarian

I love this place. I always take friends from out of town here to experience the deliciousness of the food, dessert, and drinks! I also have their cookbook and love to try out the recipes.

vegetarian Diner

I'm not a vegan or even a vegetarian for that matter, but I enjoyed the food very much. I had a curry burger with apple chutney. Super delicious! Also, the service was good.

Chicago Diner

The Chicago diner is not just for the meat repellent. Their menu choices, while being completely vegan, are hearty and creative.
