Reza's also has a River North location, and Cousin's a Lakeview location. Brian is right about Reza's being very good, but I am a Cousin's fan as well, so if you are in Lakeview, Cousin's is a good choice for Mediterranean and vegetarian cuisine. Timothy Shell

One page of the menu is vegetarian. It's not terribly pricey. They have the best homus I've ever had at a Chicago restaurant. Good service, too. Cheers, Rob P.S. Cousin's in on Broadway just north of Diversey.
