“I've always wanted to come try this place, and I am so glad I did today. I was greeted by a wonderful person named Carlos, he was very hard-working and kind! The menu is fantastic, it was so hard to choose what I wanted! I ordered the jackfruit wrap and a Brazil smoothie, and everything was perfection. Literally perfect. I will be recommending this place to everyone and bragging about how delicious my lunch was today, for weeks!”
“Great for everyone, but menu caters to vegan and GF. Food delicious. Outside service on a slow day could be better.”
“This restaurant is truly exceptional. I was quite indecisive about my order, we were suggested the sampler, which turned out to be an absolutely perfect choice; I would rate it a perfect 10 out of 10. 😊😋”
“Kale My Name has been on my bucket list for so long, and finally visiting was pure joy. The food, the vibe, everything about this place made my day. Definitely one of my most memorable experiences in Chicago.”
“It was nice that they offered their brunch menu and their full regular menu. I appreciate how many unique options there are (and of course all plant based). The rosemary potatoes were a highlight. We also enjoyed the breakfast burrito. Portions were a nice size as well.”
“Really tasty highly recommended. Jack fruit wrap was filling and has my tastebuds wanting to go back! Service was top notch. Ambiance was nice. Food was beyond delicious. The greek fries are a must! Seated, ordered and got my drink and food with fast, amazing, unrushed service. Tea was scrumptious, clean ingredients. Everything I had tasted amazing. Make sure to donate to them, they are giving free meals away everyday from 3-5pm while snap is shut down.”
“My partner and I made our first visit to Kale My Name on a Sunday afternoon and couldn’t have been happier with our experience! There are so many enticing items to choose from, and they’re also very accommodating with customization options! The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, the food was delicious and the experience overall was great. Will be returning!”
“This place is amazing! The food is BRILLIANT and DEEEELICIOUS. The presentation is always great & the service is helpful and friendly. They offer tea parties, also!! So freaking cute. I will always suggest this place to anyone.”
“Very spacious! Lots of vegan options. Good portion size.”
“Awesome We sat in the back patio as it was too cold inside for us. No umbrellas to shade us so we move table closer to the building for it's shade.”
