17 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Highwood

“The staff, management and Chef are amazing. We are regulars at this establishment for a reason. The reason is their ability to understand their guest! My special needs son had a moment where I have to leave before I ate and with his to go food. The Chef, Manager, and servers took amazing care of my daughter and hubby and made sure to send my favorite items home with him so I had dinner.“

“I didn’t get a chance to take a picture because I ate my food so fast ?. This was my first time trying their chicken. Everything was absolutely delicious. The employees were so friendly. The restaurant was so clean inside and out. I really enjoyed eating here!“

“Our spring break vacation was falling apart, so we stopped here for a reset. And we got it. The food is always piping hot and delicious. The owner knows you need coffee or more tea before you do. We used to live nearby and as soon as we saw the sign, we knew Sandy’s was just what we needed. PS they even make gluten-free toast taste so delicious that my kid will finish it off my plate.“

“My best friend and I met up for dinner on a Saturday evening.... First, parking is hard to come by - you may have to drive around for a bit before a spot comes available. The restaurant wasn't too busy when we arrived but was pretty full by the time we left. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food came out freshly cooked and was delicious! I ordered the steak jibarito with Puerto Rican rice and a side of sweet plantains, and my friend had the ropa vieja trifongo. I'll definitely be going back to try other menu items!“

“We were in the area checking out a place for tea (we live an hour and a half away) and decided to stop here for lunch. My husband and I were soo glad we did. Staff greeted us promptly, served fantastic chips and salsa. We both got the asada burritos with a side of rice and beans. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor! We’ve tried many Mexican food places and this one is top on the list. We are already planning a trip back to try more food! Thanks for the love and care you put in the food!“

“We dined at Disotto for the 2nd time now. Server was Kevin. He was so prompt,knowledgeable and well trained, that it really made the dining experience amazing. We all loved all our meals and the wine was excellent. Just came back from Naples, Florida and this restaurant had better everything! Better mussels, better caesers, better pasta....so delicious! We will be back!“

“we recently ordered carry out for a small get together at our house. We ordered off of the catering menu and were very specific with our choices. The woman on the phone was exceptionally friendly, patient and helpful. Everything in order came out perfectly incorrect. The food was delicious, everyone was happy and we even have amazing leftovers for the next night or two. Washington Gardens is consistently good and there is always a pleasure to deal with. We love it.“

“I have eaten here before and always thought it was good but the last couple of times it has been great. Really outstanding dishes. I highly recommend a new diner here start with several of the small plates as they are excellent. We loved the Arepas, the Drunken Mushrooms, and the Peruvian Ceviche. The Empanadas were also very good but the three above were excellent. The four of us split two other items and were stuffed. We had the skirt steak with mushrooms and the Mussels. Again, both were excellent.“

“It's one of the best taco places in Chicago. The food is fresh and generously served; there are more than 20 kinds of tacos to enjoy, and the salsas are delicious. La Plancha loca serves Mexican sodas and beers that are always cold and easy to grab.Service is always friendly to native Mexicans and Americans; people can sit inside or outside in a pleasant setting.My favorites are “Vampiros” and “Tacos De lengua”.I recommend La Plancha Loca to all my friends and customers.Vegetarian options: Taco guacamole, Taco soy chorizo, and nopalesKid-friendliness: Kids are welcomeWheelchair accessibility: The sidewalk is wide and accesible“

“Such a spectacular space! I am the client concierge for a financial group & we held a cocktail party for some of our clients in the Soto Room private bar last night. Our staff & guests loved the experience! I heard many good things about the smoked Old Fashioned & was very impressed with the serving vessel. So cool! The pizza was also delicious. New Haven style pizza might just be my new favorite! We can’t say enough good things about the space & talent behind the bar. Mike was wonderful to work with, very kind, quick & considerate in his approach. I look forward to our next visit!“

“The very best the North Shore has to offer in Italian food. This small cozy restaurant serves the most authentic Italian dishes and the baked goods are incredible. Gino the owner is an amazing person in every way and a great friendTonight the squash stuffed raviolis in a sage butter sauce with sugar brought me back to Tuscany 5 stars and get a cannoli“

“This is hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant in the area! They use fresh ingredients, the food is always delicious, and it's a great value-for-money. Service is also really good. If you're interested in filling your belly, try their Torpedo Burrito and get a homemade tres leches cake while you're at it!“

“If you want the best food down in highland Park you should definitely try this place out honestly God I've been going here for years I just moved farther away so now I got to take a trip to get out here to to get the best Chinese food ever I love their combination rise or fried rice I love the sweet and sour chicken and I just like everything on the menu to be honest my family loves going here I always love going here again I just would like 2 hours away so I can't come here often but when I do The guide knows who the heck I am and ask about what's been happening besides that is the best service ever get they're quick fast and would recommend this to anybody and everybody“

“Although Miramar offers excellent meals and a well-designed environment, that evening's service left a bit to be desired. We were seated promptly as we had a reservation.The water came quick, with the choice of sparkling or still. The bread and waiter were quick as well; the issue was with the utensils. The man who would bring utensils didn't come many times; we had to ask him three times for new forks and knives after they were taken. The food, as I said, was great. With good flavors and a balanced use of ingredients, the food didn't feel overfilling. The steak frites and crème brûlée were the shining items at our meal. I would overall say it's 3–4 stars only due to the issue with utensils; it may have been only that night; still, that was my experience.“

“Stopped here on the way home and it was very good. I would recommend it to anyone who is passing through. We went on a Friday evening around 5:30cpm and it wasn't very busy. The food took a little longer to come out but overall I would recommend it.“

“We hired Froggy's from a list of approved caterers at our venue. They also provided some dessert. Froggy's tried to meet all our requests and people seemed to enjoy the food. The service was attentive during our meal and open bar time. There were some unfortunate issues at the end of the night and a missing cake, but Froggy's did their best to resolve them (for example, making a new cake top for us to enjoy on our first anniversary).“

“Once you have had a slice at SLYCE, all other pizzas seem not good enough. Highly recommend adding the sausage, Caribbean chili, roasted garlic, chili oil (if you can handle some spice) as toppings if you are going for a custom pizza!Would recommend eating at the restaurants vs take out for the ambience and while the crust is warm.“
