50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Port Barrington

“Fun tiki like atmosphere inside, but you don’t really get good views of the water from inside restaurant. I got the bbq bacon burger and it was great! The fries were a seasoned kind, they were good but not my fave. The mister got the all you eat fish fry. They bring out two fried cod pieces at a time. The beer battered fish was great and so was tartar sauce, especially the spicy one was fantastic! Only complaint is we waited awhile for another serving of fish - but when it came out it was hot and fresh! We asked for side of blue cheese and some hot sauce - be aware they charge you for 75 cent for every sauce without letting you know.“

“My 1st time here, I did enjoy the atmosphere, but the food was average. I was surprised that I couldn't request how I wanted my beef cooked. I always want it well done, but my server said that all meat has to be cooked medium, so I took a chance at it. I saw too much pink, and had to pick through my patty melt. Was disappointed, but the seasoned fries were very good! The Kenosha curds were good, but over fried. They seemed like they're not battered in house, but pre frozen. So I won't order those again. Our server was not very friendly, just average. I did like my razzmatazz margarita, but had too much h ice in it. I definitely enjoyed the Live Band that was performing!“

“As always our meal was great and the service exemplary. Thomas was our waiter and he is great at explaining the specials and helping us choose the perfect wine. My only complaint about Region is that is is not bigger and thus hard to get into for a spontaneous meal.“

“First time at the Pizza Pushers, ordered takeout. Friendly, attentive staff. Nice clean cozy dining area. Ordered a sausage pizza and a Wild Hog. The pizza was delicious and could tell made with fresh, quality ingredients. For a guy that does Friday night date night every week in my opinion I got lots of good food for the price. I think next time I’ll eat there and enjoy a beer with my pizza.“

“Wonderful service and food! Eric, the manager, is excellent checking in with diners and ensuring they have everything they need.“

“Authentic Tex-Mex food including most favorites, such as tacos, burritos, gorditas, and tomolles. I especially appreciate the well cooked and spiced home-style take of their gorditas.While their portions are not as large as their competitor close by. I believe their dishes more then make up for that with flavor and an authenticity. The homestyle taste rather than the usual standard expected of this type of Mexican restaurant makes them stand out.“

“We were looking for a breakfast place in Volo while waiting for the museum to open and this place didn't disappoint.its not much looking from the outside but the food was excellent.. we had ham off the bone ,my friend had egg pizza of some sort and it was amazing..the waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Food portion was more than enough but we finished it all. The place was very clean. There's gaming too and a good size bar.. we will definitely come back for lunch next time and see what they offer..“

“What is wrong with me, I've haven't talked about Sal's? There are many things wrong with me, and that 4000 page book is for another time. The little pizza places are what I always look for. Sal's is a staple. Don't be fooled by it's location and exterior appearance, this workhorse is around the corner of a 7-eleven building. The appearance is small but internally, thanks to the hard workers doing their thing, they produce some great pizza. Their tavern style is classic, thin (but not cracker thin) crust has generous, tangy sauce, and hearty, fresh toppings. I like that the sausage isn't too salty like other places. Don't sleep on their wings, they are meaty and done right. Sal's is 100% pickup or delivery. They have other options for pizza, appetizers, hot sandwiches, pasta, ribs, salad, etc. Dave Portnoy recently put them on an extended map..beyond word of mouth from locals. I never expected him to show up near my neck of the woods, but if he was in search of a "real deal" or "go-to" tavern-style pizza, he made the right decision. Even without One Bite, Sal's was already award-winning. Be sure to use their coupons as they gladly accept them.“

“So soooooo good! Talk about pizza... the ingredients are fresh and plentiful, cheese just the right texture and amount, crust crispy and satisfying so much so that you can eat 2 (maybe 3 pieces ) and not feel STUFFED! Service was friendly and efficient. Atmosphere is nostalgically comfortable. Our 11 month grandbaebae was happily acknowledged by all waitstaff though they were busily weaving thru the tables with their pizza pies and libations. They offered to take a picture of our group of 6 afterwards, as we were celebrating our son's birthday. On our return home, realizing an item wrapped in a napkin, was left behind and most likely tossed, I called and the owner (Jerry O.) offered to look thru the waste and by the time I returned to the restaurant, seeing him with a smile on his face, I knew he had found it !! That's going the extra mile... hurray to Uncle Jerry and his crew !!“

“Best sushi ever, great hospitality, I recommend the Salmon Sunset. I can never get sushi anywhere else, this place is a hidden gem!! 10/10“

“Run don’t walk. In the top 5 best breakfasts I ever had. I had a the gyro omelet. The pics I posted are of what my friends received. All was perfect. Waitress was super nice.“

“My husband discovered this restaurant has an entirely gluten-free menu and is farm-to-table. The offerings were so good! On our first visit, we began with the charcuterie board and bruschetta, then two of us had a scallop special, and my son had the flat iron steak. All the bread was fresh and excellent--not "for being GF" but just plain good. The dessert choices were interesting and my husband had the lemon poppy seed cake with a lemon sauce. And the wine list was phenomenal! A fun mix of specialty cocktails, too!We have returned multiple times and had consistently good food and service. The menu evolves to incorporate seasonal items.“

“I usually am not a fan of barbecue, but that was some of the best food I've had in a long time. Ribs were fall off the bone, chicken was moist and delicious, and the sausage is my new favorite food in town.Not to mention, all the staff are super friendly, and the highlight of my visit!Lived here for 20 years and always passed by (never even knew it was a restaurant) but I HIGHLY reccomend stopping to try!“

“EXCELLENT FOOD, EXCELLENT & FAST SERVICE! The food is SO FLAVORFUL! You will NOT regret your choice in coming here!Parking: Sometimes a little hard to find parking close to front door but ONLY because they are usually packed cuz they are SO GOOD... BUT there is plenty of other parking.“

“Great place for breakfast“

“My favorite son took me here for a belated birthday. Amy was our server she was not as attentive but did refill my son’s soft drink several times. Food was really good! We had small plates; bacon wrapped dates, veal meat balls, short ribs, and Boursin mash potatoes all yummy.“

“Great place to be drinking quality beer.“

“My two favorite menu items are their Farm Flight (generous portions of meat) or the Prime Rib!“

“Service, hospitality and food were wonderful!“

“The best Mexican food we have ever had! Generous portions and the green salsa is delicious! Guac n chips Steak tacos Burrito bowls Will definitely be back!❤️“

“We visited on Monday for brunch, so no waiting & super fast service, but this probably varies depending on when you visit. But the menu was extraordinary! Great selection of breakfast, brunch, and lunch items. We tried 2 skillets, both plentiful and full of flavor. The pancakes, sometimes an afterthought at restaurants, were especially delicious! Definitely worth many more visits!! Great find!!“

“After spending almost all day in Volo museum we wanted to have a nice dinner and this place was just 6 min away..I wish I took some picture of the food but I was starving.. the prime rib was a good portion. It was delicious..I ordered chicken Marsala and had a Chardonnay with it and all in all the experience was amazing. The waitress was cheerful and very accommodating and the price range was very affordable...we will definitely come back..“

“It was a very special night for us and they made our dining experience so very nice“

“I've been going to Olando's for at least a decade now, and have yet to have a bad experience there. My most recent trip with my fiancee was no exception.The servers are friendly and helpful, the food is delivered quickly (even when they are busy), the portions are huge and the quality of the food is outstanding. While I've had their pizza before and really enjoyed it, I constantly find myself drawn to the "Bootie," an Italian beef sandwich topped with mozzarella cheese. It's got enough au jus in the sandwich to make it very flavorful (though next time I'll probably ask for some extra on the side, as I love sandwiches like this extra wet).My fiancee was impressed by the salad that came with her dinner, noting that it looked and tasted like it was made fresh to order. And she couldn't believe the serving size of her plate of lasagna. If there is a complaint - and I use that term very loosely - it's that there is so much good food served in the course of a meal that neither of us had room for dessert! Some day, I will sample the wares from Diana's Dream, the ice cream parlor that is part of Olando's... but for this particular visit, we left full and happy, and can't wait to visit again!July 2019“

“Great local brewery with their own line and several options from other local breweries. The atmosphere was comfortable and the service was awesome (thank you Garrett). We stopped here as part of the McHenry County Brewery Trail Challenge and we'll definitely be back. Also, the cheese curds were really good!“

“Like speed Gonzales 100 % recommended“

“My waiter was good and friendly. I sat in covered patio. I ordered a spring salad with shrimp. blackberries, grapefruit, candied pecans, arugula and berry vinaigrette and a side of Mac n cheese. The salad was missing the pecans but I forgot until I left, I thought something was missing. However, the shrimp was perfectly cooked. The ratio of shrimp to half portion was good. Mac N Cheese was ok. Noodles were undercooked and some still hard/crunchy edges and cheese sauce was just average and a bit gritty/thick. However, I was not expecting my meal to be served with plastic wrapped plastic utensils. a take home box for salad and a take home container for dining in. That was disappointing. the table of eight next to me was a bit shocked too to get their meals in to go cardboard containers.“

“We were warmly welcomed. The rich wood interior and fireplace make for a relaxing atmosphere. The service was excellent. We were greeted at the table with water and place settings. The meals are served hot, they were plentiful and they were delicious. Try the crepes!Kid-friendliness: High chairs are available.“

“I cannot say enough good things about Black and Gray Brewery! I have been a few times and always have had a phenomenal experience between the amazing brews, kindest staff, and immaculate vibes. A few weekends ago, we hosted my brother’s 30th birthday at Black and Gray and it was absolutely perfect. As always, the staff went above and beyond to make the experience amazing for the entire party and the drinks were superb too. If you are thinking of visiting Black and Gray, do it. You will not be disappointed but rather will find your new favorite spot for some great beers. Thank you Black and Gray for always being the best of the best! Cannot wait to come back soon.“

“Love the food here, great quality at reasonable prices. The owners are very polite and work hard to get every order done properly. We never have had a problem with their service. I highly recommend the fish tacos and the Tortas.Dietary restrictions: My son has a gluten allergy and this is one of the rare places where he doesn't get sick due to cross contamination. Big reason why we still go here.“

“Need to look twice that this restaurant is celebrating 40 years at this location when service and kitchen has not missed a mark in that time. Comments are well deserved about the quality of margaritas but it the kitchen that carries the dinning experience. If there is a need for refresh, it’s a decoration here or there and maybe that just confirms this is the place of the last tasty dining experience and not disappointed on the revisit again. Congratulations el Molino.“

“I have enjoyed this cafe for quite some time. Highly recommended if you are looking for good sushi. The bulgogi ramen is great as well. the Spicy Kyle roll is my favorite. We usually order takeout and the service is always spot on. Always exactly what we ordered.“

“We played a show at the theater next to this place. Had dinner here. WOW!!!! The service was very good and friendly. But the food!! I had a huge burger with bacon, egg, and hashbrowns. It was huge and incredible. Wife had a chicken wrap, she said was incredible as well. The incredible food combined with the small town friendly atmosphere makes this place well worth the stop. I love how they "branded" the bun.“

“Ultra busy for Mother's Day but expected. We were patient and it paid off. We have been many times, but our first Sunday brunch. The food was amazing. Every item ordered was just outstanding. Waiter was super apologetic and didn't need to be. We sat outside and it was a perfect weather so we were in no rush. Exceptional food every time.“

“I didn't know so I want you to know! We were searching for a place to hold our funeral luncheon. We needing something McHenry local, good food, and could accomodate us on short notice. BuddyZ answered the call. They had a banquet room in the back with access to the patio. We had the pizza, salad, chicken fingers, mostaccioli bar. The food was brought out as soon as we arrived. There were tables of varied heights which accomodated our entire family. Carrie, Caitlyn & Kirsty were so friendly, professional and attentive.Thank you all for being there for our family when we needed you.“

“Excellent food and friendly staff. They have a beautiful mural inside. Will definitely be back to try the Sangria.“

“Food was soooo good tried the restraunt in the back today after coworker made the recommendation and was not disappointed! 3 tacos and I was full my boyfriend had 5 and had a hard time finishing. Love the little shop growing up in Arizona there were tons of little places like this I used to frequent so finding something that reminds me of home made my day! Will definitely be back. Prices were also good considering you get ALOT of food“

“Super cute and cozy! I got to enjoy Easter brunch here and the breakfast menu is amazing. The breakfast is definitely more home style and I got large portions. If you have a sweet tooth, try the fruit crepes. I believe I had the rhapsody. Mouth watering goodness!!“

“The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the ladies working here are so nice. I ordered the ginger tea and was blown away. Strong and full of flavor. This is the best ginger tea I have ever had. You can tell this is made fresh and not with a tea bag. My husband and I split the fried calamari it was perfectly cooked, chewy but not rubbery at all! My husband ordered the Thai fried rice with shrimp. He loved the flavor he just wish that they took the tails off the shrimp. He said he would definitely order it again. I had the Long Life Soup with extra Vegetables. I am normally not a fan of clear glass noodles but this soup was so delicious and I really enjoyed eating it! This restaurant is very clean, they play instrumental music and put white paper on the tables. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try if your in the area.“

“Best place in McHenry to purchase Tacos with a large Menu. Prices are not outrageous and has fast friendly service on my takeout order. I've tried others in and around McHenry and this one ranked #1Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in and out“

“Amazing food. This restaurant has the HIGHEST quality salmon (sake) in the Chicagoland area. The portions are generous, and the freshness is unmatched. Service is quick! Ambiance is what you'd expect for a small sushi restaurant. 11/10, I'd highly recommend the Sake Don!“

“Enjoyed the beer selection. Would of stayed longer but not a fan of the music played on I guess you would call it bring your own vinyl might. Rap /hip hop.“

“This place is awesome. Really great food near the Fox River. In old downtown Algonquin historical area.Food is top-notch great chef on board. Great wine list and excellent spirits. Had Eagle Rare and glenlivets 18. We want during the week on a Wednesday at about 4:00. First person there but it quickly filled up. Food excellent service great atmosphere is excellent we will be going back. It is a little bit on the pricey side so we'll go there on special occasions.“

“Small place, easy to miss. Excellent thin crust pizza. Limoncello Cake is light and delicious. The traditional bone-in wings are made to perfection. Wings were so good, they were gone before I thought to snap a pic. Very clean restaurant. Friendly staff.“

“Great food!! And friendly staff!“

“The food is amazing. The house salad has a unique lemon oil dressing. So simple and refreshing. The neopolitan style pizza is the best in the area. Love the modern ambiance inside. Plus they have covered outdoor seating on their patio in the summer. Highly recommend if you are in the area.“

“This is one of the best places I ever met when I spent some time living in Chicago, I'm Mexican and the taste of the food is pretty loyal to the original taste here in Mexico, the burritos are awesome and the owner make a really really spicy but delicious sauce, made it with "Ghost Chile", great place, nice environment, and wonderful people working there. Greetings to Don Amando and Rica, gracias por todo lo que hicieron por mí, y que ¡Viva México! Un abrazo desde Pueblita La Bella.“

“Took my wife here for valentine's day and it was fantastic. The food and drinks were amazing, great appetizers and great service, if you want real Italian this is the place to go.We will be back for sure.“

“We have eaten here many times over the years. The food and staff are great! This last time we came in for a carry-out order and our food was accidentally handed out to a Grub-hub delivery person. How Tanya (sp?) and her staff handled the snafu was nothing short of AWESOME! It couldn't have been handled any better. Accidents happen and we totally understood that. We really appreciated the professionalism and the expeditiousness of getting our order remade so quickly. Just another reason we will keep coming back. Thank you, Tanya for handling that so well.“

“Alena was super effective, our jasmine tea was served with a lemon juice concentrate, delicious. Wonton soup was amazing! Our dishes served hot and fresh. Granddaughter thought the orange chicken was the best! The lunch meal is a great price, comes with soup & egg rollParking: Busy street, can only get to the restaurant by making a U turn, a little hard to get out of parking lot“
