Protien wrap combo with BBQ tips (yes ALL VEGAN )
Dee M.

This is my go-to meal when hungry and in need of something with a ton of flavor. The Smoke Protein wrap itself is filling but I love adding the bbq tips as the perfect somewhat sweet but savory finish. If possible I'd strongly suggest ordering ahead as there's nowhere to sit and wait. This is a small business and food is made to order. As of July 3rd the inside is still not available for dining due to the CDC guidelines in Illinois. If only rating the food it would be 5 stars but taking into consideration the whole experience, the atmosphere upon entering isn't inviting and the wall with pictures of the menu spread out makes deciding what to order somewhat difficult.

Appe cobbler was delicious
Soraya R.

I got 2 words!! FOOD ORGASM! Everything was amazingly delicious. Never ever tasted something so good like this here. Definitely will be back! Oan their mac n cheese is to die for. Soraya is my name Daisy's dont you firget it

4 item plate. This is greens, mac and cheese, yams and steak and gravy which is made from seitan
Angela J.

So this review is for the four plate items off of the hot bar. I wanted to try this place for myself since I such a fan of the originals Daisy's in Phoenix, IL. (I hate they closed down!) First of all this place was difficult to find and I know this area like the back of my hand! It's actually on 171st street and not Dixie Highway even though that's the address. I was traveling west on 171st and turned on Dixie Highway when I should have just went across the light and the strip mall was right there. So when I arrived it was clean and I was greeted by a young lady who told me I could sit anywhere. My order was taken for the hot bar and the young lady fixed it for me. I ordered greens, mac and cheese, yams and the steak and gravy which is made out of seitan. I'm not a fan of seitan and maybe it would have been better over some rice but I didn't care for the steak and gravy. The mac and cheese was okay. The greens and yams was delicious though. It also came with soup which I choose the lentil one and a dessert. I ate the lentil soup the next day, although I added a bit of nooch and tajin to it. (I like my food a bit more seasoned) I have to come back and review the peach cobbler that was dessert because I gave it to my girlfriend. So if I'm passing here and hungry, I'd stop for some greens and yams and maybe try something different on the menu. But I wasn't that impressed with the hot bar and wouldn't make a special trip just to go here.

Daisy II is a total vegan restaurant. The day that I went (yesterday), there were chairs and tables but it appeared to be placed for waiting more than to sit down to eat. However, there was an announcement that karaoke would be held there next week. It definitely had the space to host events! I'd to say that if you are not vegan or never ate vegan food, this is one of the best restaurants to start a transition. The food is fresh and healthy. Because the food is fresh and in such high demand, be prepared to wait. I really like the smoked protein avocado wrap, ground protein tacos, fried cauliflower, fried mushrooms, and fresh fries. That is the only items that I have tried, thus far!! Very good eating!!

OMG - Jerk Tacos with mushrooms : AMAZING

I stopped in today for my meatless Monday dinner and I'll say this "don't judge a book by it's cover " the place could have been a tidy bit cleaner . However I was there and wanted to support . Let's just say I found my new spot for dinner on Monday's. I had the jerk tacos with mushrooms and the berry smoothie . SO good seriously!!! This place is a hidden gem !!

JaCoby W.

I must say the jerk wrap was absolutely amazing I'm not just saying that to just put a post. I can honestly say this was the first time that I actually liked vegan type food this was amazing

You dont have to be a vegan to try their delicious food! I had a plate of 3 dishes that came with the most amazing West African Chili. To me, it was a meal itself! For my plate, I chose Mack and cheese ( amazing), greens ( delicious) and my kid chose onion rings ( perfect) We also were offered to taste curried tofu. It was delicious but I had tofu that morning for breakfast and it was just too much tofu for me to add to my plate. I would highly recommend everything we had that day. You won't be disappointed! I cannot wait to go back! So glad they opened not far from where we live.

Half of a Southwest wrap and cauliflower
Daniel G.

I had a peanut butter and banana smoothie, the southwest wrap and cauliflower. Everything was delicious, the cashier was very kind and helpful, and the food really hit the spot. The cauliflower was especially delicious- breaded and spiced like magic.

Grilled veggie tacos and eggplant nuggets.
Nina E.

What a delicious surprise! I visited them for lunch today. I was a little hesitant to order vegan food due to some of my allergies. The cashier couldn't answer my questions, so the chef came out to listen to my concerns and then recommended a meal: veggie tacos and eggplant nuggets. The eggplant was seasoned perfectly. The tacos were hearty and topped with just the right amount of cilantro. Well done! I'll be back soon.

My last visit was when they were still on Old Western Ave in Blue Island--way overdue for a return. Let's start with the food--absolutely delicious. The three of us kicked things off with the Cast Iron Cornbread, and trust me, don't skip it. Perfectly done and a great start to the meal. For mains, we went with the Pitmaster's N'awlins Gumbo, Hickory Buttered BBQ Shrimp, and Burnt Ends. Every dish was spot on--flavorful, well-executed, and clearly made with care. The restaurant itself is pristine--clean, polished, and classy without feeling stuffy. Service was just as strong. Our server, Nick, was attentive, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Safe to say, it will NOT be another 30 years before my next visit. Highly recommend.

My coworkers and I would go to the old location from time to time. Their new location opened in 2019, but this is the first time that I got to check it out. The restaurant is gorgeous! One thing that I noticed was all staff that I encountered generally looked happy. The host was super friendly and offered vegan or gluten free menus if we needed. The person that seated us also was running food and ensuring tables were kept clean. Since it had been so long since I dined here, the menu appeared smaller. I appreciated that our server Adam explained some of his favorites. The cocktail that I got was excellent. The cornbread appetizer was huge. I went with the gumbo and it was full of meat pieces. It was really flavorful. Adam was super friendly and made us feel welcome. Parking lot is tight, but they also offer valet. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for some Louisiana style cusine.

Because it was takeout, I can't provide any feedback on the full dining in experience, but there's a lot of parking available outside. Very nice location. My jambalaya skillet was delicious. It comes with two decent sized pancakes. Between the two pancakes and the skillet, I was able to get three meals out of it. Everything was seasoned to perfection. The pancakes were cooked perfectly.

I ordered the corned beef hash skillet, and it did not disappoint. I always appreciate when a restaurant makes their corned beef hash in-house--it makes a difference--and this one was full of flavor and served piping hot. It also came with a side of pancakes, which were some of the fluffiest I've ever had. One small touch I really appreciated was the variety of flavored coffee creamers available at the table. It's nice to have options beyond the usual half-and-half. A fun surprise: my food was delivered by a robot! I'd heard about this but had never experienced it in person--definitely a cool and memorable touch. Service was fast, friendly, and welcoming. If you're in or near Homewood and looking for a solid breakfast spot, this place is absolutely worth checking out. #ImNotAFoodie #ImJustAGirlWhoLovesFood #YelpEliteSquad

The Mucous Buster is made of pineapple, grapefruit, orange, turmeric and cayenne. The Powra is made from kale, green apple, cucumber, ginger and lime. My favorite salad is the taco salad which has perfectly seasoned walnut meat as it's protein. The vegetables include lettuce, bell pepper, tomato, mango salsa, avocado and olives.
