• Great Alternative to Usual Vegan Fare in Chicago

Went to Opera tonight. Non-vegan in a vegan household. Suffice to say that although I can always find something to eat at Chicago Diner and Karyn's Cooked, the menu does not change very often. We love Alice and Friends but it is a little far from downtown Chicago. Opera is the first Vegan friendly restaurant that felt like a real restaurant you could take a date without making it all about your diet. The waitstaff John was extremely professional and knowledgable (as good as Enrique as Karyn's cooked) and the manager Sarah was extremely professional and friendly. I thought the food was amazing. We usually have what the waitstaff recommends so we went with the wontons and Orange Tofu. They were amazing. Frankly, I was so shocked to read a less than positive review that I felt the need to register and review the place. Incredible place. You will not be disappointed. Five stars if I could give it. If they can separate their utensils and cook vegan, it's still vegan in my book. It should receive the five stars it deserves.
