    Really liked this spot for dinner. Dining room was sparse, food was delicious and service top notch! Plenty of parking outside. Can't wait to go back. I had the felafel po-boy and my friend and I split the vegan Mac& cheese. It was very filling.

    Everything I've eaten here has been delicious! I love that they have a dedicated vegan menu! The owners, husband and wife duo, and also the other staff are all super friendly and customer service-oriented. My favorite dish to order is the Loaded Vegan Nachos with added Beyond Meat. I also enjoy the Vegan Quesadilla, Sumac Clucker Vegan Sandwich, and Hummus. The house iced tea is something special, the wife makes it with her special spice blend. I will continue to dine at Boon Cafe especially when I'm coming in from a flight at O'hare. (^_^)

    This feels like such a hidden gem in the area; it's always empty whenever I go. Everyone who works there has always been so sweet and genuinely happy to see customers, whether it be for take out or dining in. The food is always flavorful and well seasoned; never a sad taste bud when I'm there! I got the beef chapli burger last time on recommendation of our waitress and it was bursting with flavor. We always get one of their loaded fries when we go - I feel like this is the only place that does loaded fries right. I have yet to try something disappointing here. It's a smaller place with around 10 tables and slightly diner-esque. Generally quiet. Cozy.

    Came here yesterday with my wife and I am pleasantly surprised at what a gem this place is! The food was absolutely delicious. I'm a sucker for good fries because fries usually get cold and lose the crunch but these fries were phenomenal. I got a classic cheeseburger with coated fries. My wife got a swiss burger with curly fries. We also got a slice of cheesecake and tiramisu. We loved everything. The restaurant was clean and organized. The atmosphere was cool. It's a shame that its location gets overshadowed by the ice cream shop located a couple doors down. They also have vegan options and some Halal food too. Service was also amazing. We will be coming back to try more food.

    The food here is wonderful! I'm vegan, my family is not, which is one of the many reasons to love the menu at Boon Cafe. They have wonderful meat dishes like steak quesadillas and po boy sandwiches, but they also have a full vegan menu that can be healthy like curried cauliflower or junk food like vegan chicken po boys. I got vegan curry cauliflower and vegan samosas and they were packed with flavor. Highly recommend this little spot.

    Boon Cafe in Norridge, IL is a hidden vegan (and omnivore) gem! The owner is so kind and creates delicious fresh food that made our taste buds dance. Loaded nachos, loaded fries, falafel sandwich, and a vegan burger made us so happy. We will definitely be back. If you're dining in, you must arrive before 6:30pm, otherwise take out is the option.

    This is an absolute 5 star place for me. I have been here probably 20-30 times before, yet have not…read morereviewed it. Maybe because it already receives so much positive attention, it hardly needs my two cents. But after this latest visit, I decided to "pile on" with my love for this place. First, I must alert you to pay attention to their hours, because they are closed Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. I kicked myself at least once, when I made the 40 minutes drive from home, just to find that I forgot that they were closed that day. This store is a double threat - offering a great take home Italian deli with a plethora of fresh and frozen items for you to prepare at home. This is also a great spot for lunch, with legendary sub sandwiches, and an array of hot dishes to choose from. I often do both. On this visit, from the deli, I picked up some of their marvelous, thinly sliced breaded eggplant, which I always get when I'm there. I bring some to my ex-wife and daughter who love it as well. Just give it a quick cook in the oven, and it's delicious. I also got some of their marvelous breaded potato salad, which is old-fashioned homemade style. From the hot bar, I got a couple of Italian sausage and some meatballs. I buy these ready to eat, but take them home to use for dinners later. That way I don't have to cook them. Obviously, they offer both meatballs and Italian sausage in fresh or frozen as well, which I get when I'm preparing my mom's spaghetti recipe. This time, I decided to try a quart of their frozen Nottoli homemade marinara, which I hadn't tried before. So delicious! I had pasta and spaghetti with sausage that night, and pasta and meatballs the next. On my various trips here, besides the Italian sausage that they are famous for, as well as the meatballs, I like their olives and other salad items, the sandwiches, brocciole, and many other hot Italian dishes for lunch. The rigatoni w/vodka sauce is a killer. Finally, the people have always been wonderful , which is very important to me. Despite being busy, it is well organized and you're in and out of there in no time (or you can sit at the table inside if you want to eat in). The prices are extremely reasonable, and I'm always pleased about the value I get for such a good price. I apologize for no pictures on this review. I always just seem to be focused on my own mouth watering choices, as opposed to a Yelp review when I come here.

    The food is delicious, all home cooked at its best. Their beef sandwich is very delicious and…read moreplentiful. They make their own sausage, which is so delicious and what are my favorites with the pot roast sandwich, so tasty and unique where you really can't find this item in many places. Their subs are good. Their salads are good two thumbs up.

    I've passed by Sandwichón Café countless times driving up and down Harlem, so we finally decided to…read morestop in for lunch--and I'm glad we did. At first, I was a little unsure how it worked since there's a service counter, but staff quickly greeted us and showed us to a table. Table service was a pleasant surprise. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, walking us through an impressively extensive menu. I ordered the Double Medianoche--pulled pork, ham, mustard, Swiss cheese, and sweet pickles, all pressed panini‑style. My friend went with the Pan con Croqueta, a ham and cheese sandwich topped with a ham croquette. For anyone unfamiliar (myself included), croquetas are minced pork that's breaded and deep‑fried. Both sandwiches were solid, but the Medianoche was the clear winner for me--warm, flavorful, and perfectly pressed. With so many options on the menu, there's plenty more I want to try. Friendly staff, good food, and a comfortable dine‑in experience. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. There at least two signs advising they will charge 18% gratuity to tables of three or more and will not split checks for three or more.
