    5 pc Garlic Parmesan wings.
    Nina H.

    When BWB reopened late last year with a name change and new menu, we were psyched. We ordered burgers from them in the past and really enjoyed our meals so for New Year's Eve, we returned for takeout with BWB Shakes. This time, we ordered their Wagyu burger, Grilled Mahi Mahi sandwich, 10 piece wings and Oreo shakes to go. Everything we ordered was excellent and our food stayed fresh and hot. To us, the meal was worth the drive to Highland Park. For those familiar with the old menu offerings, you'll notice the recent menu has changed. Some popular items (i.e. The E-I-E-I-O burger which had bacon, cheddar cheese, fried egg and house made Bacon Bourbon jam) were eliminated. I asked the owner about it but fear not! You can still order their classic E-I-E-I-O through online ordering and customize your burger. For a delicious fast casual meal, try them out. It's close to Ravinia where you can grab a quick bite to eat prior to the show. There are few places on my list where I go for burgers and after 3 successful visits, they are one of the best burger shops in town.

    So first I was excited to see a burger place next door to Ravinia Brewery because I really wanted a burger with my beer. I walked in to find it's just a fast food to go spot with a couple tables outside. The online menu is way different than the inside menu and the inside menu was out of 50 percent if the menu items. I was one of four customers in my group to order food. i ordered first and 20 minutes later my food was done. I ordered a pub burger medium well and it was dripping with blood - undercooked to say the least and took 20 minutes . The pub burger wasn't even on the inside menu, I only asked for it because I saw it online. i wish the owner well in his endeavors, however I wouldn't recommend this place unless In the area and not many options. Like I said I wanted a Burger to accompany the beer I had a Ravinia brewery.

    I didn't know about this place until my wife and I tried it as part of an Elite perk a few nights ago, and I'm glad we did! It's a small place so I almost missed it while looking for it. I only saw two people working, one in front and one in the back, but they were both wearing masks and the guy up front was nice and talking with a few other customers that came up. I got the E-I-E-I-O Burger with hand-cut fries and my wife got the Chicken Shawarma Bowl. I really liked my burger! The patty itself was a little dry and the egg was cooked a little more than I personally like, but it was great when combined with the bacon, cheese, and that amazing Bacon Bourbon jam. The jam may have been my favorite part - sweet but not smothered all over to the point where it's overwhelming. I took a few bites of my wife's Chicken Shawarma Bowl; not enough to give a proper review of it but enough to say I like it and would get it myself next time! I will say that the hand-cut fries, though they had good seasoning, were on the soggier side. But it can't always be helped these days since we can't dine in and get it as fresh as it can be. There are actually a few more things on the menu that I'd like to try (especially the wings) so it's safe to say that we will be back again!

    Legally Blue and Bloody Mary from Ravinia Brewing Co.

    Original plan was to eat at Ravinia Brewing Co., but we were craving a burger. How great that we sat outside and could order from here or Ravinia Brewing as they share the same kitchen and owner. We got the smash burger just how it comes with grilled onions, pickles and a thousand island like sauce. Omg! Finally a smash burger that is simple yet oh so delicious! I've been so disappointed in smash burgers in our area and I was so delighted with BWB's! It was absolutely delicious! The fries were amazing too; piping hot and very fresh. I wish I took a photo but we scarfed it down very quickly. I had the Legally Blue cocktail from the brewing company and it was very good and refreshing. My dad had a Bloody Mary (both pictured). I highly recommend and I'll be back to try the tacos at Ravinia Brewing.

    A burger before Lightscape!

    Stopped here for lunch with my kids on a weekday. The smash burgers were amazing and so were the truffle fries.

They feature many different American-style sandwiches, many different Greek & Italian dishes, and a variety of salads, wraps, and so on. There is street parking in front, and a municipal lot just a few steps to the north; on weekends it can be a little crowded. Inside, the décor is very industrial-grade chic, with blonde wood tables and black metal chairs; it is nice and clean. When you order, you are given a little buzzer which lights up when your order is ready; you can then go to the counter to pick up your tray. You are also given a cup for drinks, which are self-dispensed from a machine and there is a self-serve counter for cutlery, napkins, and so on. The food is plentiful and hot; I ordered a smashburger (?) and it was very good. There were some fries with it (actually, a lot of fries) and there are condiments for your use on the table (ketchup, mustard, salt, pepper). . NB I'm not overly familiar with smashburgers but it was very good. . A small comment on the burger: It would have been nice to have the hamburger bun a little toasted. It was not soggy, but it was soft. But again, everything was very good. I very much enjoyed my visit to Backyard Grill and would definitely recommend! RECOMMENDED

We got the Cali burger which had avocado and bacon and I'm forgetting the name now but one with a fried egg and bacon. The buns on the burger were so good (I think they're brioche buns from Turano) - soft with a good bite. And the loaded fries we got were also delicious with green onions, bacon bits, cheese, and some sour cream. I learned that the fries are made in-house not bought frozen and pre-cut. Next time, I would just get regular fries bc they're so good as is! Would love to go back to try the smoothies. Everything seems to be made with care and quality at Twisted Burger and can't wait to go back.

El Zorro burger-- this was really good. There's a beef patty under the chorizo, so the chorizo flavor wasn't overpowering. Sauce is also not overpowering and not greasy. The large fries is definitely pretty large. The cuts are of potato without additional coating before frying so the flavor is of potato itself and added seasoning afterwards. I prefer it this way since the oil soaked ones are soft and delicious, but my kiddos prefer more crispy and crunchy end pieces. The Baja fish naan is still our favorite. Because of the loaded fresh veggies. Would come back to this local POC owned establishment to try more of their shakes and burgers!
