    CLASSIC EPIC BURGER
    Isra A.

    I got the Classic Epic Butger. This burger consists of a Single Creekstone (halal) Farms Black Angus beef patty, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, pickle, grilled onion, and Epic sauce, served on a toasted brioche bun! It was pretty good, and the relatively cheap price didn't hurt. It's not going to be the best burger ever but if you go in with low expectations it'll be just fine. Lots of seating and they're also open relatively late for the loop which is nice. They have some amazing prices during their happy hour on Mon-Fridavs which make it a great alternative to Mcds. I especially enjoy their milkshakes, would definitely recommend picking up one too. They have multiple locations so check them out!

    Epic burger review We visited Epic Burger's downtown location. If one doesn't have a car, the suggestion is to take CTA-Red line Harrison exit stop. I had to double check our order of added onions on the turkey burger and no onions/added avocado on the regular burger. I took the burgers back to the counter to get my order corrected. I was glad I stayed at the counter and watched the worker correct this because I was not pleased that she used the same glove and touched the onion and the avocado. The overall place was large and clean. One needs a key to the bathroom, which I appreciate. The burgers are good. With the correction to our meal, it took longer to eat. Next time, I'll order a double burger. However, I'll go to another Epic Burger location.

    Ordered the Farmhouse burger and the loaded fries. It was pretty good. Food came out promptly.

    Burger was nice and the portion was enough for me. Sweet fries were good The Nutella shake was ok Staff were all helpful and nice despite the restaurant being busy.

    This was $17?

    Gosh, I hate this place. I forgot what my last experience was like years ago before the Pandemic at other Epic Burger location, and this is even worse. The food is expensive and lackluster, takes forever to both order and receive, and the restaurant stinks like grease.

    The burgers here were not as Epic as I had hoped. Still a decent burger, fries, and malt shop in the Chicago land area. The location was convenient and even with all of the Swifties in town the service was pretty quick. I love the neon signs and murals as decor with the play on words and punny sayings! I just wish I loved the food a bit more. A decent counter service burger joint if you don't have much time to spare

    Parmesan fries and build your own burger

    I've been hearing about this place for years and finally tried it while I was at a conference near by and wanted a quick lunch. I got the build your own burger with some added topics and the Parmesan fries. The fries were SO GOOD. The burger was good as well, nothing out of the ordinary but overall a solid burger. Service was average - I had ordered jalapeños as an extra topping on my burger and they forgot them. The girl taking our order wasn't very friendly and didn't seem to be paying attention so they mistake wasn't surprising. Would recommend for the food but maintain expectations for service. The place has chill vibes, it's clean and simple.

    Little Bad Wolf

    Andersonville, Edgewater

    There's just something about a burger that actually lives up to the hype--and Little Bad Wolf does…read moreexactly that. Stacked unapologetically high, this burger is everything you want and more: juicy, perfectly seared patties layered with melty cheese, crispy bacon, and those golden, crunchy fried onions that take it completely over the top. Every bite is rich, savory, and just messy enough to remind you you're eating something seriously good. The toasted bun somehow holds it all together (barely), soaking up every bit of flavor without getting lost in the chaos. And then... the shoestring fries. Thin, crispy, golden perfection--light but addictive, with that ideal crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one (or ten). They're the kind of fries you keep reaching for without even realizing it, especially dipped in that creamy, tangy sauce on the side. And let's not forget the drinks--just as good as the food. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and the kind you sip slow while taking it all in (but somehow they disappear way too fast). It's not just a burger--it's one of Chicago's most iconic bites for a reason. Bold, indulgent, and absolutely worth every single napkin you'll need after. The ambiance inside is GORGEOUS!

    My husband and I walked in on a Sunday evening for dinner and were able to be seated right away…read more The atmosphere is dark and moody, and it made sense once I realized it was the same owners as Gretel. Loved the 90s female R&B playlist they had going! Little Bad Wolf has been on my list FOR YEARS to try the burger! My husband got the burger with fried onions and I got some Bao because those also looked delicious and were a popular menu item. Honestly the 3 stars are only that high because of the service. Our server was friendly and attentive + the food came out hot and quick. Unfortunately, the food was pretty disappointing. The burger was swimming in a puddle of grease and just picking it up made your hands greasy + was dripping grease. The fries that came with it were floppy, soggy, and sad...but at least warm? I personally wouldn't order this again. The Bao were better, but small for the price and honestly were just okay? It was nice they gave you sauces you could add, but I found the Bao's to already have enough sauce so I didn't need them. Overall I left feeling confused and disappointed. I don't feel the need to come back here - Little Bad Will was a one and done experience for me.

    The Loop

    Being a California boy (born and raised) my only way to get a Fish & Chip meal was at a fast food…read morefranchise called H. Salts Fish & Chips; and it was fairly good. Several golf trips to the U.K. (Britain, Scotland, Wales) I got my fair share of excellent Fish & Chips; the best being in Ullapool, Scotland at The Seafood Shack I have never had better! But, leave it to Chicago to deliver some of the best fish and chips I've ever had in the USA, here at The Dearborn restaurant in the Chicago loop. Everything about The Dearborn's signature dish just worked in every way: The fish was fried perfectly The fish itself was moist and delicious The chips (fries) were excellent The coleslaw was the perfect side dish The tartar sauce was scrumptious My Krobacher Pilsner paired perfectly with my dinner The service was spot on And sitting at the bar watching the NBA playoffs didn't hurt either. I did have a scoop of delicious salted caramel gelato that finished this meal perfectly. Having such delicious fish & chips a few blocks away from where I live is certainly better than flying "over the pond" (a British term for the Atlantic Ocean).

    This is an excellent spot for a special occasion! I visited recently with a large group for brunch…read moreand we had a great experience all around. Regardless of the time of day and especially during peak hours, I would definitely recommend making a reservation to air on the safe side. The staff prepared our table super quickly and was very attentive- they really went above and beyond throughout the meal. I do not recommend skipping the drinks! I ordered the seasonal Si Se Puede, Tia mezcal cocktail, which was quite spicy and perfectly sweet. For appetizers, we shared the parkerhouse rolls. The rolls were soft and buttery with a delicious whipped butter spread. For the main dish, I ordered the Dearborn Burger. It was solid overall and the portion size was very generous. I tried the fish and chips as well which were excellent. Would definitely order this next time! For dessert, we tried the sticky toffee date cake. I liked that it was not too heavy, and the Heath bar crumbles added a nice crunch. My only wishlist would be to have more of that delicious sauce to scoop up! We left with ample leftovers and in high spirits. Definitely looking forward to visiting again and trying more of the menu!
