Fabulous vegan spot in The Glen - Edit
Came here for lunch with my Mom and sister. Absolutely fabulous experience. Service is friendly and attentive. Food is thoughtfully prepared and extremely delicious. The menu is extensive and everything sounds so good - the hardest decision is deciding what to order! We settled on sharing the mushroom starter (Mushlove), dumplings, and fresh spring rolls. All absolutely wonderful. Make sure to check out dessert, it is 💯. Culinary proof that plant-based desserts can be so amazing, they are better than their dairy counterpart! (We got some to bring home as well.) Tiramisu, cheesecake and lemon layer cake…What dessert dreams are made of. Can’t wait to go again next time I am in town. On point.

Amazing Food! Nice variety of dishes - Edit
My husband and I have tried almost everything on the menu, and nothing has disappointed. My favorite is either of the ramens! We are so happy this place is available to us without having to go into the city. I hope they will keep expanding in the suburbs. Very nice place, seems that the owners really care about promoting delicious vegan food and providing a great customer experience.

Amazing!! Wow!! - Edit
This was a nice place to stop, far enough out of the city of Chicago. Parking was easy and the area was nice and fancy. But the food is why I'll be back!! The crab Rangoon was amazing and the chow mein was super tasty and filling. I also had a Thai iced tea with soy milk which was yummy. I would love to try more of the menu! The restaurant was surprisingly busy on a Wednesday night.

Groovy - Edit
I’ll start with the end. Ube cake special.
Read moreI want to wake up next to it.
All the familiar things on the menu in a great new space in Glenview. Got there at noon and by the time we left the place was hopping on a Saturday.
I audibled from my usual and had a great noodle soup I can’t remember the name of. Tho I could live without the “shrimp”
Oh. And the crab Rangoon appetizer, not huge but great taste blast from the carnivorous era.
Best option around.
Pros: Ube cake. , Great flavor and great vibe and familiar menu , Convenient to meet suburban friends
Cons: I don’t have more ube cake. Where is my ube cake?

Amazing bao - Edit
I would come here just for the baos, especially when they have the ube ones. Also the baked tiramisue is delicious. The food overall is good and can’t wait to keep trying more. I did not like their hazelnut coffee, it was undrinkable unfortunately. This put me off ordering any other drinks.
Read morePros: Ube, Lots of seating
Cons: Coffee

Hi Midwestlife2,

Cute Place - Edit
Really cute place - nice vibe, friendly staff, and all vegan (yay!).
Read moreThe food was a bit underwhelming but I'd certainly go back to try other dishes (might have just chosen poorly). I've never seen vegan crab rangoon and it was really good!
They also give you a discount for bringing in your own cups/to-go containers, which is super cool. 💜
Pros: all vegan, great staff, cute interior
Cons: underwhelming dishes

All around excellent - Edit
DELICIOUS all-vegan restaurant. Highly recommend the Golden Hour. When we ate here, the Tres Leches was available as a special and it was divine. I’m sure their other desserts are just as good.

Wonderful food and service - Edit
Enjoyed celebrating my birthday here. While I am vegan, my husband and 2 young adult kids are not. We all enjoyed the food…everyone was happy! My husband especially liked the Bahn Mi sandwich. We all liked the Crab Rangoon so much, that we ordered a second plate of it. The Thai Tea was the best I have had and the dessert special Baked Tiramisu was amazing. Special thanks to Ellie, who provided wonderful recommendations and service. Grateful for an all-vegan restaurant closer/more accessible to the northwest suburbs.

Yummy all vegan restaurant. - Edit
Alice and friends is great. I'm so happy they opened this new location. The decor is so cute and the service was great. Everyone was so friendly. Our food was DELICIOUS. The shrimp and mushrooms were my favorites. The crab rangoon was a little too oniony. I don't like onions, though, so any amount of onion is too much for me. We finished with carrot cake which was moist and yummy! #Veganuary

Hi HappyVeganTravelers,
Read moreThank you for recommending our food and service. We're happy to hear you felt comfortable and enjoyed multiple items from our menu. Most items can be modified but unfortunately onion is mixed in the filling of our Crab Rangoon. If you'd like to try another appetizer, we recommend our popcorn nuggets that are onion-free. See you soon!

Very flavorful food at reasonable prices - Edit
We started with the steamed buns off the kids menu. They were the perfect texture and tasted great.
Read moreWe then shared the Spicy Bbq and kung Pau dishes. The bbq had a delicious Smokey taste and the broccoli was nice and moist as were the other vegetables. It was quite spicy but not overpoweringly so.
The king Pau was good too. It could have had lots more peanuts but it was saucy and good.
Apple cake was warm, texture was tender however I think it could have had lots more apples baked into the crumb base and an option of vanilla ice cream would have been perfect.
Pros: Excellent menu options, Attentive service without being in your face, Reasonably priced
Cons: Needs better signage outside

Hi veganchef229,
