100% Plant-Based restaurant in Wicker Park. We have always had the core belief of being as good to ourselves (and the earth) as possible, but as we grow, we have always wanted to do more. With this desire, we decided to open Bloom Plant Based kitchen. Not only is eating a more plant-based diet healthier and more forgiving to one’s body, but it is significantly better for the environment. However, with healthy plant-based options not being the popular choice, we know we have stiff competition. Therefore, our intention with Bloom is to focus on bringing flavorful, healthy, and affordable plant-based food to families while also being desirable and appealing to everyone regardless of their diet.

We loved every moment of this meal. There was a group of 7 of us and we shared everything. Kalua pig, vegan rice with tofu, chicken with vegetables, edamame, lumpia, and all of the fancy drinks! If I could recommend something for them is to add more coconut dishes to the menu. Was hoping for haupia!
