About this restaurant

  • Vegan-friendly
  • Vegetarian-friendly
  • Healthy
100% Plant-Based restaurant in Wicker Park.

We have always had the core belief of being as good to ourselves (and the earth) as possible, but as we grow, we have always wanted to do more. With this desire, we decided to open Bloom Plant Based kitchen. Not only is eating a more plant-based diet healthier and more forgiving to one’s body, but it is significantly better for the environment. However, with healthy plant-based options not being the popular choice, we know we have stiff competition. Therefore, our intention with Bloom is to focus on bringing flavorful, healthy, and affordable plant-based food to families while also being desirable and appealing to everyone regardless of their diet.

    We chose this for a vegan relative in town and the food did not disappoint. Delicious — the “caviar” and the oyster mushrooms stood out. Small plates were better than the pastas and there are many good ones ti pick from. The service however was needlessly rushed; perpetually attempting to take dishes that were not finished and even a wine glass with wine left. They were not busy enough - especially in other front section where we were seated — to justify the push to turn our table. It dented an otherwise nice meal.

    Celebration dinner was wonderful. Our server was very knowledgeable and offered suggestions for our party of 5. The food was tasty and we enjoyed the play on different flavors in a dish. Who would think to put Wasabi peas in risotto. We had quite a few dishes with the Carbonara (least inspired) being our least favorite. The cheese board was delicious as well as the stuffed piquillos. The crispy oysters were a wonderful take on fried mushrooms with an unexpected but tasty twist. We also enjoyed both the Ube cheesecake and the Yuzu tart (my favorite of the two) with the Chocolate being our least favorite of the 3. Highly recommend and will be back when we're in Chicago again!

    Service was very slow and the time between the courses and ordering didn't make much sense. The food was small bites at entree prices. Some items were a complete miss and a few were top notch. An example is the oysters, they had potential for great flavor but they were fried very hard for no reason and wish it had more than 2 pieces of broccoli since there were no sides of broccoli available. The drinks were okay but nothing notable. This was our 5th stop of the day of all vegan food and was the biggest disappointment. I was excited to surprise my husband with this dinner experience but I regretted it. It's a very hipster place and I could see the other patrons enjoying it but I assume we are not the demographic for it. It was beautiful decor and a welcoming environment.

    Both, my husband and I are not vegans, but are exploring new ways of saving the planet! Bloom was amazing and did not disappoint. The food was great, the staff was friendly. The interior Design of the restaurant was nice, too. The reason we did not give five stars: the bench seating was a bit uncomfortable, the music was a tad too loud, and we felt a bit rushed when food was brought to the table before we had finished our course. But we will definitely be back!
