Best Vegetarian / Vegan Restaurants in Countryside

Thattu truly shines as a culinary haven that caters to every taste and preference. My recent visit with my brother and spouse turned into a gastronomic tour that left us thoroughly impressed. From their non-alcoholic drink selections that were refreshingly unique, to a diverse menu featuring vegetarian delights, succulent seafood, and well-crafted alcoholic beverages, every choice was a hit. The culinary versatility continued with their meat dishes; whether it was pork, beef, or chicken, each was prepared to perfection, showcasing the rich, authentic flavors of Kerala. It's rare to find a restaurant that excels across such a varied menu, but Thattu does it with style and substance. The entire experience was enhanced by the warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it clear why Thattu has earned its stellar reputation. Whether having a large family get-together or a heated economics conversation of three, there's a nook for anyone looking for an all-encompassing dining experience that satisfies every palate, Thattu is the perfect destination.

HATS OFF TO THE CHEF! Every morsel was delicious! We had the charred cauliflower starter, WOW! It’s packed with flavor and textures! Loved it! We also had the Pot Roast Dip with house made horseradish sauce! COME ON! For our side we had the mac and cheese, yummy! Both were large enough to share and both were OUTSTANDING! Best French dip I’ve ever had! My husband had the Teriyaki Quinoa Bowl which tasted amazing and was a perfectly adequate portion, filling and scrumptious! He throughly enjoyed it! We will be back soon!

We sat on rooftop. Although it was a frigid evening, the heaters made it very comfortable. The best part was that it was so quiet. It is rare to have conversations across a large table in a restaurant. Our sever was excellent, and the management team was very attentive, even though we were told (and could see) that they were slammed. We ordered almost every appetizer and loved them all! The muhummara, eggplant, carrots and tuna were highlights. The mains were devoured, too. The beef kabob was a hit, but I thought the prawns were a standout! They were more like lobster meat. The mushrooms were good but not that special, and the branzino was so delicate and delicious. Even the date pudding was delicious, and I tend to think dessert must be chocolate.

They made our special night even better with the hospitality and great food!!

This is my new favorite restaurant in Chicago. And I’ve brought many non-vegan and non-vegetarians who love it as much as I do simply because the food tastes good! I usually start with bang bang broccoli and add several great rolls for the table. ⭐️✨
