    Food is delicious! Can't get past the greatness of the Philly Cheese Steak to order anything else. Highly recommend!

    I absolutely love Can’t Believe It’s Not Meat. I use to crave meat additions of fast food every now and then. Now, my go to is Can’t Believe It’s Not Meat. The Lil Italy Lasagna is the bomb.com. Everything is fresh, steamy, and delicious.

    Everything was great except I forgot to use my 15% off code that CBINM emailed me! The food is really good. Having a comfort food vegan take out place in Hyde Park is the best. South Side vegan paradise down here. We love the buffalo chicken wrap, the fish sandwich, and the fried shrimp! Even if you're a meat eater, you'll love the crispy flavorful breading they use, and the SAUCES are the best part. So good!

    I been here for work this week; I typically don’t eat meat anymore unless I’m back home with my family, or doing Italian food. But I can truly and sincerely say this is the best vegan food I’ve ever had in my entire life. I’ve been door dashing it to my hotel and it’s worth every penny. You can tell these chefs are real pros and they take their tame with the flavors so the food is comforting, filling and enjoyable. What a great place! Thank you for what you do!

    It is a cute little storefront; there were tables outside, but not inside. I had a long walk back to my office before I ate, so the fries weren't what they would have been if I had eaten them hot. I had the patty melt, which was delicious! The staff at the front counter was lovely and friendly, with a warm welcoming smile. I will definitely be back! The only reason I gave atmosphere 4 stars was because I would have liked to eat inside, but it's a small place, they don't have room for tables inside.
