The Chicago Diner has been serving vegan and vegetarian versions of American diner classics in Lakeview since 1983, per the restaurant's own account. The format sticks to traditional diner ground — a full menu of familiar comfort foods reworked without meat.
Brunch runs daily alongside the regular menu, with pancakes, cinnamon rolls, biscuits and gravy, chilaquiles, and country fried steak among the standbys. The Reuben and seitan-based wings have drawn particular mention from regulars and reviewers, and Reuben rolls appear as a rotating special.
The Infatuation scored The Chicago Diner 7.3/10.
