| About: | Union Station is although not the travel hub it once was, this station is a must-see for those interested in Chicago architecture. The grand hall is breathtaking with giant Roman columns sweeping up to the ceiling, as statues glare down upon the rows of benches and the busy commuters below. Union Station is currently home to both Amtrak and the Metra commuter trains. The Amtraks head all over the country, while the Metra lines snake throughout the suburbs to such places as Brookfield Zoo , the Chicago Botanic Garden , Ravinia Park and the riverboat casinos. Timings vary, open according to train schedule. |

I am a graduate student at the University of Illinois and have taken the train home every month to go visit my family and during these past 4 years, I always stop to eat at Cajun Grill before my trip. Although the restaurant's name is deceiving (which I realized has traumatized some other reviewers on this website to the point that they can't keep an open mind), the quality of the food is wonderful in that you get a Cajun twist on the classic Chinese dishes that you can't find anywhere else. Try the bourbon chicken or lemon chicken sample the next time you are in the area and see for yourself. The service is good for a food court restaurant and prices are fair. Over the years I have integrated my monthly meal at Cajun Grill into one of the essential parts of my trip back home that I look forward to the most.
Since when are egg rolls cajun?: This is not exactly Cajun. It's Chinese food with cajun names...and sometimes not even that...and should be moved to that category. Seems this is achain of kiosk type restaurants. During the entire time I lived in SW Lousiana, I never saw fried rice and egg rolls served alongside the crawfish ;-) If you want Chineese fast food...go for it...just don't call it Cajun. They have a stall at Fox Valley Mall in the food court as well. This is about as Cajun as much as Chicago is a tropical paradise...
cajun grill: This place is awfull.I recomend it if you are looking for some type of stomach ailment.The food is not fresh at all,they recycle it from the previous day.Trust me people there is nothing " yummy yummy" about this tomaine temple.
