"Vegan food (with real eggs optional), cute atmosphere, and a sign reminding us that 🧊 needs a warrant"

"This is a great vegetarian breakfast and lunch place in highland park. It is nearly all vegan, except they have an option for real eggs in some dishes. The food is tasty. They make good coffee. The baked goods are fantastic. It is a nice place to sit with a small group for breakfast or brunch and chat. They also have a few outdoor seats if you want to people watch on Fig."

"Fave brunch spot now that we are plant based. Love the chilaquiles and the smashed potatoes! The fresh juices and the matcha lattes are exquisite. Also the burger salad and the Mac n cheese are yummy for lunch! Vegetarian with vegan options for every dish. :) Service is always friendly, kind, and expedient. Love this place!"

"I stopped by in the evening since I was in the area after a meeting and I'd been wanting to check this place out for a while. They have a different menu for dinner, and while I was a little bummed (because their breakfast/brunch menu looks great), I was still looking forward to my meal. I was seated at a corner table near the entrance of the establishment. There are two seating areas and I was a little surprised/confused that I wasn't seated in the area where other patrons were eating. In my experience, restaurants typically seat people together so that servers only have to tend to one area. Maybe they thought I wanted to be alone? Maybe they thought I didn't want the distraction? Either way, I just looked out the window and people/dog watched. I ordered the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice and the Psychedelic Daalipop. That tuna was absolutely spectacular! It had a great flavor and I loved the pickled ginger on top (which was a nice surprise because it wasn't listed in menu ingredients). I'd definitely get it again when I want to splurge.... it was a little on the pricy side at $14 for 2 cakes. The Daalipop was super tasty as well. I loved the variety of flavors and textures in this dish. Overall, I spent $35 (on two dishes and no beverage, not including tip). It's a nice vegan place to visit with fresh, clean ingredients that you can taste, which contributes to the higher price point."

"This place is such a gem! You’ll fall in love with the atmosphere and be head over heels for the delicious, high quality menu. Kitchen mouse has always served food that’s delicious and with plenty of healthy options. I’ve moved away and still order delivery or takeout whenever I get the chance. Kitchen Mouse will always have my heart!"
