Review Visit: March 23rd, 2014 So just how EPIC! is Epic Burger? Well, not all too epic, actually. My dad and I came here after visiting Shedd's Aquarium and were hoping for some really EPIC!! food. What we got was decent food and some unsatisfied taste buds. Now the food wasn't terrible. But it wasn't EPIC!!! It was just a bit too greasy and a bit light on flavor. We ordered a meal each and the total was about $17-19, so not bad for two people. But 5 Guys is way better, IMO. That is a great burger place to go. SmashBurger even. Those are EPIC!!!! Epic Burger.. not so much. Maybe it will be EPIC!!!!! for you. Maybe not. They have locations all over the Chicagoland area, so if you do want to try it for yourself, they are not too hard to find. There are actually too many locations for me to list without this blog post becoming super long.

I hadn't been to Epic Burger in years, but I decided to stop in after an afternoon of shopping. We were greeted by a lovely gentleman who took our order. My sister and I both ordered burgers, fries, and Pepsi. The bill was about $40 for the two of us. The burgers were well proportioned, flavorful, and tasty. The toppings were fresh and plentiful. My sister ordered hers with cheese and bacon. I opted to keep it simple with lettuce, tomato, and various condiments. The fries were so plentiful that neither of us finished them. In retrospect, we agreed that we could have shared a serving. We dined in and found the location clean and comfortable. I'd visit this Epic Burger franchise again for sure.

My first time trying Epic burger was probably what I expected. The burger and fries were just fine for a fast food restaurant. The space was clean and fairly empty for a Saturday afternoon. I would not go out of my way to come back but I also wouldn't be against coming back if a friend suggested.

I've been to a few epic burgers around town and as per fast foot goes it's pretty solid for the price range and quality. I usually go for the classic epic or the cowboy. They have been pretty consistent with how they prepare their burger nice amount of caramelization and charring on the burgers and good toppings. It always comes out like the picture and the fries nice and crisp with different options as well. Service is pretty fast and consistent. Never had wait. Nice and casual place to get a great burger.

Classic burger, Sweet Potato Waffle Fries, cookies and creme shake

Big fan of the sweet potato waffle fries; they came with honey mustard which was very good. The shake was also a bit above average. Burger was fine - nothing crazy but decent. Service was quick, only waited 5 minutes or so. They give you a number and you can go sit down and they bring it to you.

Beyond burger that I took home. Not bad!

It feels slightly upgraded from a true fast food burger joint with their panera bread style ordering system (place your order and payment up front, take a seat with your number anywhere, and they bring your food out to you). While I do enjoy their burgers from time to time, it is a bit on the greasier side. Fries are okay, a tad bland and sometimes seem to go soggy quick. In terms of offerings, a burger (single or double), a turkey burger option, a chicken sandwich, and a veggie burger (beyond meat patty) are all available. They do allow you to pick and choose toppings, with some additional options for cheese, bacon, and a fried egg for an addition up charge are available. For sides, regular fries, sweet potato fries, or a side salad are available. Overall a simplified menu with just a handful of options and ability to customize to your liking is what they aim for. I seem to find myself coming back for their beyond burger from time to time. While I wouldn't say it's the healthiest of foods you could consume, it does bring some satisfaction knowing that I've eaten more veggies for a sitting. Anyways, all around a good option to keep in the affordable meals rotation. Service is quick. Place is usually clean and doesn't seem to ever get too crowded. 'Til next time, cheers!

Au Cheval was unfortunately a pretty disappointing experience for us. We arrived around 5:30 PM and…read morewaited nearly 2.5 hours for a table of four. We understood that it was busy, but being texted that our table was ready only to wait another 15 minutes in a tiny entry hallway was frustrating. When I asked for an update, the hostess was dismissive, which made the situation even more unpleasant. Once we were finally seated, it took about 10 minutes for our waitress to greet us. We ordered wings and single burgers. The food was hot, but our burgers and fries came out at completely different times because the kitchen was supposedly "backed up." For the price and the hype surrounding this place, I expected a much better overall experience. The burger was decent, but honestly, nowhere near worth a 2.5-hour wait, and the prices felt high for a burger and fries. I can appreciate that restaurants get busy, but the communication, service, and timing of the food could have been much better. Overall, I wouldn't wait 2.5 hours to eat here again. The food was okay, but the experience just wasn't worth it.

Yesterday, my colleague and I went to Au Cheval and I'm still in awe. We went without a reservation…read moreduring lunch and had a 30 min wait. We were sat at the bar in front of the chefs who were back there whipping it up. We ordered the Roasted Bone Marrow which was ahhh-freaking-mazing! It was the perfect balance of salty and savory. It was served with toast. I ordered a lemonade which was yummy. She ordered a coke. We both ordered burgers and an order of fries to share. They came huge and very good. I kept mentioning that my fries were one of the best. We are kindly given a key lime pie which was to die for. I'm not even a dessert person and I couldn't stop eating the slice. I will be back the next time to I visit!
