Veggie House sits at 2109 South China Place in Chicago's Chinatown/Armour Square, serving a menu built entirely around vegan and vegetarian versions of traditional Chinese dishes. Rather than offering a separate Western-style vegetarian menu, the kitchen reworks familiar Chinese preparations into plant-based form.
The room is casual and geared toward everyday dining — solo lunches, family dinners, groups of friends — and the restaurant has become a go-to option for diners navigating dietary restrictions in a neighborhood built around long-running Chinese restaurants.
