Celebrated our wedding anniversary at Au Cheval in New York City and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The burger was incredibly juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Adding the egg was such a great touch -- it took an already amazing burger to another level. To make the night even more memorable, we were surprised with a complimentary dessert for our anniversary, which was a thoughtful gesture and really elevated the experience. The ambiance was young, trendy, and full of energy without feeling overwhelming. The vibe made it feel like the kind of place you want to stay awhile, enjoy good food, and celebrate special moments. Service was excellent from start to finish. Everyone was attentive, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. read more

The waitstaff was extremely rude. The hostess was rude. Three people who we spoke to, prior to being seated, were rude The food was overhyped in my opinion. I had the double burger with egg & bacon. I also tried the bacon & black pepper mac & cheese and the french fries with garlic aioli. The food was too salty Disappointing, as I'd been excited to try this place, as everywhere online said this place has the best burger read more

I'm still dreaming about the burger, no exaggeration. It's easily one of the best I've ever had. The flavors in the burger...the richness, everything about it just hits. I actually went twice in a short span, first with coworkers, and then I had to bring my fiancé back because it was that good. Beyond the food, the service was just as memorable. Our waitress was incredibly attentive, warm, and made the whole experience feel effortless. The energy of the space paired with that level of hospitality really sets this place apart. Already planning my next visit. read more

I want to start by saying the service and ambiance were great, this review has nothing to do with that. They were even playing old school hip hop during lunch, which I really enjoyed. I kept seeing so many reviews about the burger here, so I had to try it. I made a lunch reservation and ordered the double cheeseburger with bacon, egg, and fries. The waitress explained that burgers are only served medium or well done, which was fine since I usually order medium and expect some pink and a juicy center. When the burger arrived, the bacon looked amazing and the egg was perfectly cooked. But once I cut into it, there was no pink at all, it was more well done and lacked juiciness. The waitress kindly replaced it, but after waiting a bit, the second burger came out exactly the same. At that point, I didn't want to make a scene, so I kept it, but it was still overcooked and disappointing. For the price point, I expected better execution, especially for something they're known for. The fries were good, though. Overall, I left a bit disappointed. read more

Au Cheval - Classic Au Cheval Double Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Au Cheval launched in Chicago in 2012 and the NYC outpost opened in Tribeca in 2019 from the same owner as 4 Charles Prime Rib. We walked in around 6:45pm on a Saturday and got on the waitlist. Ended up at a table in under 15 minutes. Grabbed a quick drink at the small bar downstairs while we waited. We got the double cheeseburger with added bacon and farm egg, the shaved prime rib sandwich, and fries. Total treat and definitely a top burger in the city. read more

ou can't go to this NYC outpost of the famed Chicago original without getting the burger, and I wasn't about to try anything out of the ordinary here. This is a behemoth of a burger. It's got two 4 oz patties, between brioche buns, with two slices of cheddar melted in between. That doesn't even take into account the extra add-ons (which come at a price), the bacon and egg - which I had both of. Pretty much the only way I could eat this burger was if I cut it in half with the provided knife. This causes the egg yolk in the middle to break open and flow through both sides of the burger, making this an even-more-messy yet extra delicious to an already so burger. The taste is just incredible. Yes, there's a lot of fat involved - you've got the butter, cheese, egg yolk, and I'm sure the patties are not lean beef. But even with that, it's just phenomenal. The beef was cooked to a perfect medium, which just made it super juicy and that great beefy flavor. A lot of places will default to well-done, so the fact that you can make it medium here is great. The maillard reaction was a bit inconsistent - the outside is a little gray in some sections - but other that than the beef was great. It's the only part that gives a taste outside of fat, so it was good to have. Everything else is also near-perfect. From the visually delighting yet functional egg, the gooey melted cheese that tries to attach itself to the plate, and the soft sweetness of the buttered and toasted brioche buns, every part of this lends itself to a heart attack a year sooner yet immensely good in the moment. There were a couple things I would bring up as not ideal though. One was the bacon just felt unnecessary. It was pretty thick, so not crispy at all, and it just didn't feel like it provided anything of value other than making the picture look cool. There's enough flavor from everything else. Secondly, there was a lack of seasoning on the patties, and on the burger overall. A little more salt could've helped. The price was expensive. With the add-ons, and tax, and tip, this came out to 45 dollars. Probably the most expensive burger I've ever had, and this doesn't even come with a side. Is this the best burger I've had? Even excluding price, probably not, because I still think that the best smash burgers take the edge with its crispiness. Also I found burgers with a single 8 oz patty to work better than a double with 4 oz each. But it does rank highly up there. Overall, it's a very expensive meal, but if you want some of the best in the food form I'd say it's worth a try. 9/10 read more

Au Cheval - burger - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

Tried Au Cheval and it was solid overall. The burger was okay--good, but didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Patty was a tad overdone, lacked juiciness and seasoning tbh. The roasted chicken was surprisingly good though, super flavorful with seasoned skin and really tender meat. Breast meat was cooked to perfection and the fries in the jus was delicious. The kale Caesar was surprisingly tasty. Finished with a root beer float which was another solid choice. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Au Cheval after a 7pm reservation miraculously opened up on a Saturday. My party of four was promptly greeted upon arrival, and our table was ready for our reserved time. The decor was inviting and rustic, and there was a lively, (yet somehow subdued buzz, ) throughout the dining space. Our server was super friendly, and offered input when deciding upon dishes. My group tried the burger (with all the fixin's, plus a side of red onion jam,) the chicken liver w/ buttery toast, the Prime Rib sandwich, chicken dish, and steak frites. For dessert, we opted for the Key Lime Pie, and Napoleon. All of the food was delicious, but for me, the standout was the Prime Rib sandwich, and the Napoleon dessert. I tasted a piece of the burger without the toppings, and while it was good, the egg/bacon addition is definitely what elevated the dish. All in all, it was an excellent meal, and I look forward to my next special occasion visit there. read more

Made a Resy reservation here. Just FYI, they require a $2.50 fee per person just to book the reservation and this does not go towards the final bill. I heard their burger was one of the best in the US so I really wanted to try it, but I was quite disappointed. It's 2 thin patties cooked to medium bcus they're so thin they cannot do medium rare which was fine with me, but the burger itself wasn't as juicy as I thought it would be and the bun also didn't amaze me at all. The burger was lacking flavor and the only thing that saved it was the bacon. Their bacon was delicious. Kale caesar salad was not bitter at all and they dressed it well and evenly. They don't use the typical kale with the curly sides, instead they use a different variety of kale, not sure what though since I'm not a salad expert. Overall great, but not worth $19.99. Roasted chicken frites comes with half a chicken on top of a bed of fries. The chicken has dark and white meat and the white meat was actually so tender. I was pleasantly surprised with the way the chicken was cooked. We asked for garlic aoili sauce on the side for the fries, must try their garlic aoili. Root beer float was sooo good. But it's also probably bcus I haven't had one in so long, it just tasted more amazing to me. The malt flavor was apparent but not overpowering. I would get this again. Kale caesar salad ($19.99) - 4/5 Double cheeseburger with bacon ($25.99+6.99) - 3/5 Roasted chicken frites ($28.99) - 5/5 Root beer float ($12.99) - 5/5 They have a lot of seating and it looks like an open kitchen. Very dim lighting inside. Waitress was super friendly. It's funny cus I came for their burger but it was the most disappointing thing I ate there. Everything else was great. read more

The double cheeseburger was amazing it definitely stands up to the hype. It's a decent size and definitely shareable if you're looking to try other things. We also got the kale Cesar salad and I am obsessed. These two were a win in my book. They are also open late night. Service was good. The restaurant was extremely busy and it was 11pm when we got seated. Food came out fast. The server was attentive and did come by multiple times to check if we were happy. The ambience was what I expected for a late night spot in NY. It was dimly lit and loud, it was a little heard to hear the server at times. Overall we loved this placed and would definitely come back. It's worth the hype. read more

Au Cheval - Double cheeseburger with and egg - Burgers Near Me - New York, New York

One of my favorite burgers ever. Every time I'm in NYC, I make sure to make my way over to Au Cheval. Their dim, bistro vibe sets the perfect tone for a casual date spot. And the food and vibes certainly don't miss either. My go-to order is their burger with a sunny side up goey egg, an order of fries and some of their hollandaise sauce. We usually share a few appetizers like their steak tartare or their kale caesar salad, paid it with a nice vino and there you have it, the perfect meal. You literally can't go wrong with anything you order here. read more

came spontaneously on a friday night for date night and luckily got a table for 2 easily been wanting to try their burger for a while as i heard great things. ordered a bunch of stuff to share: - starter chicken liver wasnt the best but it was decent. big portion would def recommend sharing with 3-4 people - kale Caesar was fire - would order again. not the best caesar ive ever had but it was a good one for sure. huge portion def more than enough for 2 people - side of broccoli was really good. huge pieces so again a lot for 2 people but was seasoned and cooked really well - side of french fries was pretty pointless these were nothing special - the burger was really good we did an egg and bacon but honestly not the best burger ive had :/ but its really good and i recommend people trying it service was quick and the restaurant is huge so great for big groups. id come back! read more

Simple menu, executed well. This is what every restaurant should strive for, in my opinion. Au Cheval lived up to the hype 1000%, well worth a splurge for a fancy dinner. The tenderloin steak tartare starter was delicious; quality meat paired with a tangy cream on the side, and a few pieces of toast to deliver the deliciousness directly to your mouth. Definitely a great dish, on brand with a meat-heavy meal. Then there's the burger. The main attraction. If you've made it this far and weren't planning on getting the burger, change your mind immediately. The meat practically melted in my mouth, the flavors were straightforward and amazing. Definitely in the conversation for top 10 burgers in all of NYC. We also got the shaved prime rib sandwich to share; even with all the meat in the other dishes, it still held its own. Au Cheval really nailed the au jus and the horseradish cream, sides that really brought the sandwich to the next level. All in all, a fantastic experience, with great service (shoutout to Natalie) and amazing food. read more

Hovering at a 3.5, I think the atmosphere and service are quite nice, but the food is just okay to good; nice for pictures with quite a high price point. We came for the burger, but for a visitor, would recommend elsewhere for burgers! The fries were the best thing by far! We ordered the most popular items from reviews: fries with mornay sauce, mac n cheese, burger with bacon and egg, and French dip. I would say the fries were by far the best; fresh crunchy fries with a DELICIOUS sauce. These fries were going by fast!! If I could return simply and get these fries, I would! For the other dishes however, we thought they ranged from okay to good. Presentation of food was really nice, but the burger was really just okay. The bacon overpowers a lot of the flavors and is a bit sweet, agree with the other reviews that the bacon really only looks good but think the burger is better without it. The meat patty itself was juicy but there is no really dominating smoky flavor or component in the burger that makes it stand out. The bun was soft and toasted nicely, but not really the start of the burger...It does look very nice in pictures however! The Mac n cheese was good, but not super outstanding in my opinion. The French dip was also okay, the bread was a crunchy but soft, and there was a lot of meat inside that was good. But it wasn't very flavorful or special, just a normal French dip. It was our friends birthday and they went out of their way to give us an ice cream dessert which was really nice. The interior is dimly lit for an elevated dining experience, and it does definitely feel posh yet relaxed. Service was great too! Only wish the food was a bit more special, especially given the price. Definitely get the fries if you come! read more

Cuisine: 5 Service: 7 Decor: 8 Value: 3 Overall: 4 What happened? I keep asking myself this question as I dined here recently. The original Au Cheval in Chicago is one of my favorite restaurants in the country for gluttonous pursuits. I have been there a couple times and loved everything about it. Since the NYC location opened up, I have been here a few times. Though not the same menu or quality of what is offered in Chicago, the experience was still good. Unfortunately, my latest visit might be my last. Let's start by saying that high prices has never been a deterrent for me when it comes to good food. However, if the quality does not match the price, that's when I feel cheated. That was how I felt after the meal I had on my recent visit. It's been a while since I have been back, but I always come here for the same three items every time. Below are my thoughts on these items and what changed for each to make me so disappointed. Shaved Prime Rib Sandwich (5/10) - Where's the beef? This feels like shrinkflation at work. I use to love this sandwich, especially the rich thick au jus that felt more like a butter sauce. That's no longer the case either. Just a plain au jus. Why would I pay $37 for this sandwich? Guess I won't. Double Cheeseburger (6/10) - This was maybe my favorite burger in NYC. Not anymore. Look at my picture and you'll see that there is no sear on the beef patty, which looked steamed. What happened? Flavors were just not all there. Fried House Made Bologna (4/10) - This sandwich was mushy. Not the bread. The meat. Wtf? I don't remember it being like this and it's really not enjoyable. I will not be ordering this again. Oh well, I might have to enjoy Au Cheval when I am in Chicago going forward. This location will unlikely get my business again unless major changes are made. I can't afford to waste good money on inferior food when I know they could do better. read more

Snagged a reservation for a VERY late dinner and it was well worth it--delicious fried chicken app, double burger, BONE MARROW (love love love), and steak frites! Our server was very sweet, the place is a bit crowded but makes sense--the food is awesome. We had a lovely time and my vesper martini was *chef's kiss* delicious. It's a casual spot so come as you are, eat, drink and be merry. The only mild issue was feeling stuffed until the next day, whew! read more

Only disappointment was no fries with the burger. read more

WHEN: Fri @11:45am Didn't really plan on eating here, but since we manage it get a table without reservations even before it opens, we thought, sure why not!? The entrance is through the side alley, where you will see people go in out before it opens because thier cafe inside is. So you can hang out in thier cafe until your table is ready. Inside it definitely feels like a swanky place for fancy burger--and we did just that: DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER - $25.99 We could have just left it at that, but we decided to go big instead of going home (I mean we can't we are from out of town). So we added the works: + BACON ($6.99) - 2 thick shiny slabs of bacon that is juicy and fatty! + FARM EGG ($3.49) - Topped with chives and pepper, dressing up the burger to look even sexier. Overall it was a juicy yummy burger. I think it would have been fine without all the extra works. But in total, around $36 for a burger...it's okay. I'd never try again cuz I don't need to, but I don't regret doing so. We felt we needed to order one more item since there's two of us eating: FRENCH FRIES - $13.99 Served with Garlic Aioli. Your standard warm and crispy fries, no complaints here! Just don't wanna come off as a cheap couple...even though we kind of are, heh. Overall, it was a nice experienced with a nice friendly staff serving up good quality food! read more

My friend planned a girls night dinner, which was early. It was hard to find but once I arrived it packed and busy on a Friday night. This place has been rated as one of the best places for burgers. Service was great. We started off with draft root beer, espresso martini and phony negroni. Food was pretty good. We shared the kale Ceasars salad, which was pretty good. I ordered the Roasted Bone Marrow, which was good for the experience, but I would not order it again. The Double Cheeseburger with Bacon and Farm Egg was rich and comforting. It was also deceivingly filling, I only ate half of the burger and took the other half home. My hubby consumed it immediately, but he stated that it was rich. I also learned that they also serve a no bun version of the dish. There was an order of the Roasted Chicken Frites which was a huge portion it was debone half chicken. The fries were crispy, I definitely enjoyed it. We ended the night with gluten free vanilla gelato, chocolate mousse cake and key lime pie. The chocolate mousse cake was the best of three dishes. I would definitely return to experience the no bun version of the burger and chocolate mousse cake. read more

LOVED AU CHEVAL. This is a must if you're looking for THE infamous burger gone viral on socials. We happened to get here about a hour or so before the reservation, but downstairs they have a cool little bar area you can grab drinks at while you wait. Espresso martini was so good and bar service was attentive and friendly. Once we were seated for our reservation, we dove right into the menu. Janes chicken and bone marrow to start, plus we shared the cheeseburger. Get the bacon. Get the egg. Trust me. My boyfriend loved the chicken and it is a generous amount so be prepared to share! It was hot, crispy and saucy with all the flavor. Bone marrow was done excellently and they give you a very generous amount. Add the carmalized onions and it is a flavor explosion. I feel like the burger speaks for itself but the bacon was the star of the show, honestly. My boyfriend and I could not stop talking about how thick the bacon was but flavorful and fall apart tender. 10/5 stars. I would return here in a heartbeat. read more

Au Cheval -- Very Good, Not Legendary Au Cheval came to us with a reputation. Word was that this Chicago-born spot had once taken first place in a burger competition. With that kind of résumé, there was no way we could leave it off our burger tour. We went for an open run on a Sunday and managed to grab seats at the bar without much trouble. About 30 minutes later, the place was completely full--clearly a hot spot. That said, open run is still very doable, at least for now. Naturally, we ordered the cheeseburger and added bacon and a fried egg. The egg costs $3.50, the bacon $8. Prices that make you briefly wonder what kind of chicken laid that egg. The mystery disappears quickly when the plate arrives--it's just a regular egg. No magic there. The bacon, however, was different: thick, soft, well-seasoned, and genuinely enjoyable. The pickles were fine--sweet and tangy, nothing offensive, nothing mind-blowing. The fries were exactly what you'd expect from countless other places. Not bad, not special. The burger itself followed the same pattern. It was a good burger. A solid, well-made, satisfying burger. But did it make me say, "Ah, this deserves first place"? Not really. There was no moment of revelation. The friendly staff and lively atmosphere definitely help elevate the experience, but judged purely on the burger, there was nothing truly surprising. The weight of the hype may have played a role here. We also tried the General Janes chicken wings while we were there, and honestly, those didn't leave much of an impression either. Would I go back? ...I'm not convinced. Good food, good vibes--but not a burger that rewrites the category. read more

You know exactly what to do here. Get the burger. People will say it's the 4 Charles burger. I haven't been to 4 Charles yet.

Good burger overall; the extra fixings weren't necessary to me, as it took away from the flavor of the burger. I had friends visiting from out of town so I made a reservation for 3:30pm. They now require a $2.50 reservation fee per person which does not go towards the final bill (which is a bit frustrating) My friends and I arrived an hour early. It's really nice they have this coffee bar area/seating so there's a spot to wait (yes, you pay extra for any coffee/drinks if you want any). It was a busy day, so we were seated 15 minutes after our reservation time, but the service kindly refunded the reservation fee. read more

Tucked away in a dimly lit, unassuming alley, the entrance is easy to miss--but that's part of the charm.

As for the food, the burger is everything you want in a $37 indulgence.

Another spot that's been on my list to visit. Ambiance, service, cocktails, and food were all on point. Natalie was our server, she was super friendly and accommodating. We ordered the roasted bone marrow which was very good. My friend recommended this since she's been here many times. The chopped wedge salad was great. We got the thick cut peppered bacon, it was good but I would probably not order this again since we also ordered the famous double cheeseburger with bacon and egg on top. The double cheeseburger was delicious and very filling. I wouldn't say it's the best burger I've had though. We also had a side of french fries that were nice and crispy.

You really need a reservation here. We were very lucky to get a seating on a super busy Sunday evening. When I heard that their opening an NYC location I was so happy. Alas, I finally got to eat here on my birthday and got a sweet treat after my meal. The waitress was super accommodating. I thoroughly enjoyed the bone marrow. I slapped that with the Jam and toast and wow. I'd eat that at any meal or between meals. The burger was fantastic . It was on the saltier side but still juicy. You gotta add the farm fried egg with for that nice ooze. I'd also pass by for the coffee shop inside the restaurant. Everything and everyone was great here. read more

Came here to try the burger- we ordered it with the fried egg and bacon. It definitely tasted good and was luxurious, though I feel it was almost too rich to the point that the flavors of each ingredient got a bit muddled together. Might try it without the egg or bacon next time. Other than the burger, I recommend the General Jane's Fried Chicken- tangy, spicy and super crispy. The atmosphere really adds to the experience- the exposed brick, leather booths and dim lighting really give it a cool speakeasy vibe. Also like the window at the front where you can order coffee while you wait to be seated. Would come back! read more

Stopped by Au Cheval in NYC and ordered the Classic Double Cheeseburger with a fried egg. Two thin beef patties with melted sharp American cheese, pickles, onions, and dijonnaise on a soft brioche bun. Adding the fried egg was the move.

First & foremost, I wanted to give a s/o to the bartender Cole who was absolutely lovely & accomodating in finding seats for my friend & I on a very busy Saturday night. He was also just a pleasure- I wish every bartender was like him truth be told haha. My friend & I ordered old fashioneds, I opted for the oaxacan & he got the classic- we both agreed that the oaxacan is better. As for the food, we got the double cheeseburger with a farm egg & the shaved prime rib sandwich as our mains & the french fries & broiled asparagus as our mains. When I say absolutely everything was great, I mean it. If I had to pick a favorite it would actually be the prime rib sandwich versus the cheeseburger because the prime rib + gruyère was simply *chef's kiss.*. You know a sandwich is good when it doesn't even need extra condiments! All in all, despite it being incredibly busy (& rightfully so), my friend & I didn't feel rushed whatsoever.

This place is worth the hype! I made late night dinner reservations beforehand (~$10 for 4 people). The place was super busy on a late Thursday for a reason, the food is phenomenal. We had some highlands sour margaritas to start, and the kale Caesar salad. The salad was perfectly dressed and delicious. We had to ask for extra dressing because it was that good. We also ordered the iconic double cheeseburgers with bacon added. It was the best burger I think I've ever had. It was cooked to perfection, and every bite melted in my mouth. It paired well with a side of fries. Definitely a must try for dinner! read more

This restaurant is all hype and no execution. I can't believe I had to pay $5 just to get a reservation here for 2 -- so I had exceedingly high expectations going in. That said, the food is not memorable at all. The burger with all the fixings is nearly $40, too salty, and doesn't come with French fries. We proceeded to order the $14 French fries that tasted disgustingly stale. We got those comped, which was nice, but it was a very disappointing experience despite our nice waiter.

There are a few things you gotta know before walking into Au Cheval NYC -- 1) You're gonna wait. A long time. 2) You're eating burgers and fries no matter how "clean" your diet was this morning. 3) You'll leave full enough to either run a marathon or hibernate for the winter -- and you'll probably choose hibernate. Chicago folks been hyping this spot for years, so when I heard there's one in Tribeca, I had to see what the fuss was about. The wait? Brutal. The burger? Worth every minute. I went all in -- 16oz Dry-Aged New York Strip with herbed marrow butter, Béarnaise, and thick-cut bacon. Threw a fried egg on top because... why not? That thing could fix heartbreak, hangovers, and hunger in one bite. Fries? Game over. Crispy, dripping in Mornay and garlic aioli -- I'll never look at regular fries the same again. Wrapped it all up with a Mille-Feuille that hit like a soft uppercut from a pastry chef. Washed everything down with an Allagash White and questioned all my life choices (in a good way). Au Cheval isn't a place for kale and counting calories -- it's where you go to eat too much meat, drink too much whiskey, and feel like a king doing it.
