Conscious Plates

This place is my go to!!!! Everyone is so nice and the vibe here is so calming. My favorite dish on the menu is the Zesty Sweet Fire salad. Please go visit it's so worth it!!!

Mixed Experience at Conscious PlatesI recently visited Conscious Plates in Chicago, IL, and while I had a mixed experience overall, there were a few standout positives and negatives that I would like to highlight.Let's start with the positives. The eggs I ordered were delicious and full of flavor, leaving me satisfied and impressed. Additionally, the avocado toast that came with the wings was absolutely delightful. The combination of creamy avocado and seasoned wings made it a genuinely 5-star-worthy dish.Unfortunately, my experience took a downturn regarding the wait time and some other menu items. Waiting over two hours for my food, particularly chicken and waffles, was simply unacceptable. I understand that a busy restaurant can lead to delays, but an excessive wait time left me feeling frustrated and hungry.To add to my disappointment, the wings I ordered were excessively salty. While I understand that taste preferences can vary, the saltiness was overpowering and took away from the overall enjoyment of the dish. Moreover, the grits, which are typically savory, were surprisingly sweet. This unexpected twist didn't align with my expectations and left me longing for the traditional savory flavor that grits are known for.To improve the overall dining experience, I strongly recommend that Conscious Plates reevaluate their kitchen preparation and efficiency. Long wait times for certain dishes can discourage customers, and the restaurant must streamline its processes to provide a more timely service.While there were definitely highlights during my visit to Conscious Plates, the excessive wait time and inconsistent flavors prevented me from giving a higher rating. I hope the restaurant takes these feedback points constructively and makes the necessary improvements for future customers.

New locationI went to new location in WoodlawnTip order ahead you be waiting 45 min more or lessAlkaline restaurant, Consisting on the diet followed by Dr. SebiMy party came to the restaurant and we placed our orders. We sat down at the newly remodeled restaurant. There were games available at the table and we didn't know I did. I take in one of the smoothies with sea moss . My phone choices included being oyster mushrooms and the taco fajita bowlEvery day was cooked to order. I was pretty good. I definitely not cheap. If you're looking for a cleaner way to eat, it's a good investment. The customer service was pretty good

Stopped by and ordered the oyster wings, onion rings, and a raspberry soursop smoothie. Loved all of it. Seasoned nicely without being over the top and without being underwhelming. Had looked up the location online and didn't realize they're a walk-up that may or may not put tables out for onsite dining. I went to a nearby park and enjoyed my order at one of the benches.No problem with ordering. Since it wasn't busy when I arrived, that may explain why service was neither scrambled nor disconnected. The cashier/cook said they will be moving to a location at 63rd and Cottage Grove. They'll get my dollars before they move and afterwards.

I love a good plant based restaurant that's mindful of ingredients. The only issue is from order to ready takes an hour. This establishment lacks efficiency in serving customers and will take away from its uniqueness. Unfortunately, I won't be back.

So happy I found this healthy addition to the Woodlawn community. Conscious Plates is a great tasting vegan/vegetarian restaurant. The portion size's are substantial. I really enjoyed the Fajita Salad and S'hroom Bites.They have Sunday Brunch with entertainment, daily Yoga Classes and feature local artists. The staff are friendly and informative. The space is open, with lots of light and great music.Keep doing what you're doing, a real gem.

The food is really good! It is high quality made to order plant-based deliciousness. It just taste good without being a replica! The Oyster mushrooms wings are worth waiting for and are nicely balanced with seasonings that make you enjoy by itself or with dipping sauce! The bowls are just what I needed to feel nourished and full but satisfied with really great food. The service is friendly but a bit slow and my walk-in order took some time but worth the wait. LOVE the vibe and rhythm of the space this is a great place to hang out in person with a cool ambience that makes you want to come back! Make this a restaurant on your list!!!!

I love the location and the food is always amazing! Its so rare to find vegan food near me. The staff is so nice and the space is great

Electrifying food! The creative "Conscious Sauce" is lovable on everything! Joyful welcome when I entered their establishment. If it's safe to say, I think they enjoy their jobs Top notch courtesy.Exciting yellow accessories that brings in the good vibes.New Art every 2 months. Cool games at the table. I'll be back surely
