Reviews for The Chicago Diner, Lakeview in Chicago, IL
Who knew vegan could taste so good? Highly recommended! The strawberry shakes was delicious and the entrees were very good.
This was a really chill diner. The menu is completely vegan but will substitute some Dairy (cheese and such) for a fee. The... atmosphere is somewhat rockabilly and the staff is very friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. There is a Children’s Menuavailable and the place is extremely family friendly which is great. The food is stellar and very flavorful. They also have adecent selection of beer and wine. Read more
Great place! The service is amazing. They take out an automatic tip for their servers which I think is really ethical. Also when... I when they made it clear that they're a card only place. So Leave your cash at home. They have a HUGE menu of different thingsto choose from. I had the titanic burger with waffle cut fries witch was very ???? delicious. Will be visiting again! Read more
Excellent staple of the Chicago Restaurant scene. I haven’t been in almost 8 years but it was as good as I remember. The... Rueben is incredible! As good as any meat Rueben i have ever had. The ‘wings’ are amazing. How they get the texture andflavor of a wing with the seitan is amazing. The service was very very good. Cole did a great job with the menu, keeping drinksfull and attending to us during our meal. The shakes are delicious and recommended as a post dinner treat! Read more
Delicious vegetarian food and very tasty shake. I went with the Thai wings and the cookie dough peanut butter shake, it was very... good. The staff was friendly and organized. I wish they I included pictures in their menu for some of the items. Read more
Delicious! The Reuben tasted like the real thing and the Thai Chili wings were packed with flavor. I think if I had someone make... food like this for me I could stay vegan for the rest of my life. Read more
They have a good selection of vegan comfort food. Loved their Cuban sandwich but the pea soup that came with it was pretty... bland. Tried the truffle mushroom lentil loaf but wasn’t too impressed. Our son’s Reuben sandwich was OK. Due to limitedseating capacity, you have to make reservations, and they tell you that you have an hour to eat your meal. Their price point isalready high and a 20% gratuity will also be included in your bill. Read more
My first ever vegan diner. Quite tasty and didn't miss meat. Very friendly staff as well. Dessert options looked good though we... didn't try any as we were stuffed. Gratuity is added automatically which is nice.but it's not included in the prices. I wouldhave preferred that. Also they do add another tip line in the end which can be confusing. It should be about clearer and justincluded in the price. Read more
