My friends and I stumbled upon this restaurant when looking for something close to O'Hare. We were blown away by the hospitality and service! My partner had just graduated before this meal, and the chef made us a special, complimentary dessert which was so kind. The server really went above and beyond to take care of us. The food was also delicious and affordable, and there was a whole vegan/vegetarian section on the menu! This was such a lovely surprise and delicious meal. read more

This was one of the best vegan burgers I've ever had. I would've taken a picture if I hadn't wolfed it down so quickly! Me and a friend ordered this for delivery to our hotel from Uber Eats. We both got the vegan cheesy burger with grilled mushrooms and onions and got an order of the vegan Mac and cheese. Holy shit- the burger was perfection. Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The burger came wrapped in foil so it was still super hot and toasty which is always a nice touch when getting delivery. If you're vegan and looking for a bomb ass burger, do yourself a favor and check this place out. We were pleasantly surprised with a random burger spot in the middle of the Chicago suburbs. read more

The food here is amazing and the owners provide excellent customer service. They have a variety of vegan and vegetarian options. I love the falafel po boy! I am not vegan anymore (used to be, now just trying to limit meat) so I did also sample the meat options. Their nachos are incredible! Overall really great spot to grab lunch or dinner. read more

This is a great neighborhood place. The owner knew most of the people coming in to pick up orders. She was very attentive and answered all of our questions. The Chana chaat fries and the vegan McClucker fries were amazing! We can't wait to order them again. My son had a traditional burger and it was perfectly cooked. read more

This place is amazing! My mom was getting her hair done next door so had time to kill and was hungry. I ended up getting the clucker sandwich and garlic mozzarella bites. The sandwich was so good. It was light and very fresh but filled me up as well. And the mozzarella bites weren't bad either. And the lady included a free sample of bbq sandwich and it was good and had a sweetness to it. And the lady was really nice and and patient with us. My mom ended getting food afterwards and waited there and gave us some nachos to try and I couldn't stop eating them as well lol. Definitely would come back. read more

This is a great spot!! It's clean and the food is delicious!! I love that they have Vegan options. Very family friendly and the service was amazing! Check out this spot!!! read more

A true hidden gem! I must've driven by this place so many times, but never really saw it until I was told about it by a friend, and now I'm hooked. I've been here a handful of times so far, mostly to pick up my food to-go. But every time I walk in and place an order, the owners are the absolute SWEETEST, they'll chat with me for a bit and they've even offered me a small and delicious treat while I wait. No guarantees for anyone else lol, this has just been my experience! I'm vegetarian, and have ordered something different on their vegan menu every time I come here and I've never been disappointed. Their falafels are especially delicious with their homemade boon sauce (vegan option available too!). Their flavor combinations are on point, and the portions are big too!! As long as they're in business, I'll be a loyal customer. read more

My kiddo loves their Mac & Cheese for some reason, lol; ac, they're good. Their po-boys and burgers are great. Owners are very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommended! read more

Excellent food. The owner was very nice and gave us some free samples. Tried the vegan Kefta. It was fantastic! Sorry didn't get a pic of the po boy sandwiches because we ate too quick they were so good. Highly recommended!! read more

Best vegetarian food in the area. Huge selection of foods and I really appreciate that it's not all the same types of things. I feel like most restaurants serve basic vegetarian meals and Boon goes above and beyond. My entire family loves them! read more

I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Don't expect ambience, it is definitely a strip mall eatery with paper goods. But the food... Oh my the food! Layers of flavor, innovative dishes. Everything I had was vegan and everything was amazing. This Pakistanian/Indian combination is to die for. Please run to this place, support this couple, their hospitality and talent in the kitchen is just amazing. read more

I wish I tried this place before but better late than never! I was greeted by the owner with a warm welcome. I decided to eat my food there since the Arabic music was playing and just gave this vibe that I wanted to stay. I ordered the beyond cheesy burger! It melted in my mouth. The sautéed corn was the star of this meal. I loved it! The cauliflower bites had this light crunch that left you wanting more. I'm sitting here reading the reviews and ended up ordering coconut shrimp and the vegan clucker to go! I highly recommend this place. Support your local mom and pop stores! Boon you inherited a customer for life! read more

Came here with my friends for lunch. Got the beyond cheesy burger which was delicious and full of flavor . My friends also seemed to like their food. Also grabbed my husband a Philly po boy to go and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He said the meat part was ok but the veggies in the sandwich really stood out to him. Restaurant is located in a plaza with parking. Owner was super nice and considerate of dietary restrictions. Plenty of vegan and non-vegan options on the menu. Worth a try if you're in the area! read more

Greatest falafel bowls ever! The owners are really sweet. Definitely has some good veggie options

This place is MORE than a cut above the others restaurants/cafes/food joints that spot the urban landscape. Menu items are similar in their names/titles only. There is a certain touch and approach to the menu items at this place. They put a twist on everything they offer making it non-conventional. You do not simply order, nachos, a shrimp sandwich, a gyro, or a quesadilla at this place and get something swimming in grease and forgettable a few hours after consuming it. The sauces, spices and approach to cooking and preparing something as common as a burger or chicken sandwich are unique and beyond reproach. Add in the fact that the couple that runs this place are two of the most attentive entrepreneurs I've come across and the experience is that much more enjoyable. I've tried many items on their menu am amazed and completely satisfied with each one. This is gourmet cafe' comfort food, not chain sports bar & grill conveyor line offerings. The food speaks for itself here. With the hundreds of available options nearby and these times that corporations and chains leave you wanting and dissatisfied, why would you not support a local small business whom the big shots couldn't match in service and food in a million years? Support your small local family owned businesses or they will ALL disappear. And if you don't care about that and only care about how good the menu items taste, then even more of a reason to patronize this local and relatively new place. Simply put, Boon Café is a gem. Visit this place and try it and you'll see why. Miller's Ale House and Portillos don't need your money and their food is average. This place is my lunch go to. read more

Really tasty and affordable vegan food close to O'Hare via Uber. Carnivore husband loved the Indian spiced chicken sandwich and onion rings (unfortunately they are not vegan) read more

The spices in the Vegan Chapli were glorious and I swear I could still hear the curly fries crackling when they came out. Loved the service I felt like if I needed anything I could truly just ask. I went on a Sunday afternoon on a solo lunch it was a quaint atmosphere. TVs on mute with the only sounds the ones coming from the kitchen. read more

Really amazing service and delicious food! I highly recommend the vegan beyond meat quesadilla

Was pleasantly surprised when picking up takeout as they were closing up. When I got home, the food was good and the complimentary tiramisu he added was icing on the cake! We had burgers, quesadilla, Mac and cheese, and shrimp po boy. Everything was on point. Wish we lived closer so I could come back often. read more

Not easy opening a Cafe during a pandemic. But this one deserves our support. I noticed it today and stopped him for a quick lunch. Delicious fresh squeeze lemonade. And a falafel sandwich on a baguette. So delicious it made me think why have we never had falafel sandwiches on baguettes before? I look forward to trying the other things on the menu which is really rather a wildly varied and exciting document. read more

Boon Café - Falafel on baguette. Moist, messy, delicious. - Burgers Near Me - Norridge, Illinois

Wonderful place and wonderful people We will definitely be coming back. A wide variety of items on the menu but not overwhelming. Dining room was small and cute. We had some appetizers and lunch items that was served hot and fresh. Even their iced tea was refreshing and didn't taste old and bland like most places. We are from out of state and will definitely have to come back during our next visit. The owners were very nice and made sure we were doing ok. Reasonably priced for big portions. Please give this place a try!! read more

Menu has a lot of very unique options including plenty of veg friendly options. Everything we ordered was fantastic. I'd definitely go back!

Very happy with the eating experience at this place. The menu is unusually deep and varied. Yes it's heavy on vegan options, that's kinda why I went, but my fellow diners were pleased with the other choices and had no issues making good selections. The owner provided very prompt, kind and thorough service. He was responsive to some unique requests (a child's) and was most appreciative of our patronage. Nice little place. read more

Absolutely outstanding menu for vegan and non-vegans. Delicious choices including burgers, falafel, gyros, fries, salads gourmet Mac-n-cheese. Half of the menu is vegan, half is not. All freshly made. Privately owned and operated. Definitely a must visit. Amazing! Already planning what to order next time. Owners care about their about restaurant, that's obvious! Enjoy! read more
