XMarket Food Hall

A super fun vegan destination! While visiting the food hall I opted to have my meal at El Hongo Magico, a mushroom forward taco counter. Food was absolutely fantastic, fresh, flavorful, and was prepared quickly. There was ample seating at comfortable wooden tables, and there were several other restaurants to choose from. There was a sushi place, a smoothie bar, an Italian place, and your all-American hotdog and Burger counter. Everything says it’s 100% plant-based so it’s pretty fun to have all of these options in one spot. For me the highlight was the all vegan bodega inside the food hall. You know how when you’re shopping in regular grocery stores you have to search for that one vegan item in the sauce section and the one vegan item in the dairy area, etc, and then you have to go to three other stores to get your other vegan items. This was like having all of those in one location and I just wish it was closer to where I was staying so I could’ve done all of my shopping right then. I did find some cool items I’m looking forward to trying which I have not seen elsewhere. There is also a full bar and it seems that they have some pretty cool events coming up so it appears to be a nice neighborhood hangout spot.

Fun, tasty vegan options at the food stalls. The shop is too pricey for me, but how nice that everything there is plant based!
Happy hour every day at the bar with a great selection.

An absolute paradise for any vegans. The staff were all extremely nice, the entire place was clean/spotless, plenty of seating, and I've never seen so much delicious vegan food in one place before. This is a must visit if you're going to Chicago.

The food was pretty good but took a while to make. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that apparently they allow dogs and somebody had their dog on the table. I’m allergic and I also generally think it’s kind of gross to allow that in a place that serves food and drink. Overall I’ll definitely be back to try some of the other vendors and go shopping at the bodega. Really nice to see a wide selection of all vegan snacks and frozen stuff. They don’t take cash so bring your card

Best new spot to have opened up in Uptown/Buena Park. Friendly space and a chill vibe. Love the natural lighting during the day to sit-back at the bar, coffee shop or one of the food hall table spaces. Excellent selection of plant-based & vegan foods with a market with additional beverages, snacks, food and frozen goods to choose from. Brought my sister here who was ecstatic to find a variety of plant-based/vegan chocolate bars.
