I really wanted to love it, I really did. Everyone hyped it up and so we were pumped. It just fell flat. The burger meat itself wasn't anything special, almost bland. The bun was definitely a day old and not fresh-- totally dry which killed it. Which made the ratio of a dry bun to burger meat even more noticeable. The fries had a nice crisp to them which I appreciated. Only giving two ketchup packets, come on. The saddest part came from seeing an iron tub with a school of goldfish inside. The bottom of the tub was filled with hundreds pennies and nickels, so they're basically sitting in poisoned water. It really made us sad. They weren't even swimming. Just bunched together in toxic water. Not even some plants to add any sort of a natural environment. Cruel. The two stars come from a lovely patio, and the fact that they serve Lvivske. read more

We stumbled upon Krasa when it immediately popped up as a burger place in the area. I had never even heard of it before! You walk in and place your order with the cashier. They had multiple burger options and other wraps, sides. I opted for the cheeseburger which I felt was very fairly priced at around $9. We also ordered the cheese fries and parmesan truffle fries. Water cups are available as well. The sit down spot is really cute and there's also an outdoor patio area. For the food, I thought it was a good burger but not one that was making me jump for joy. The fries were nice and crispy but I felt there was a touch of an aftertaste. It was overall a good experience with a good priced cheeseburger. The casual atmosphere and ambiance really stood out the most with Krasa for me. read more

If you're looking for a creative twist on shawarma, you have to try the Chicken Chicago Shawarma at KRASA Craft Restaurant. The chicken is perfectly cooked and the Ukrainian-style garlic mayo sauce is amazing. I love how the honey mustard and cheddar cheese add a sweet and savory touch, while the pickles and cabbage keep everything fresh and crunchy. Highly recommend! read more

This is a neat little restaurant. The front of it is covered in artifical green foliage. You cant miss it. There is metered street parking out front and within a reasonable walking distance. The woman that took my order was friendly and helpful. They have a small inside dining area and a decent sized patio area. part of the patio can be enclosed and has a fireplace for the cooler days. The other section of the patio is open air. The patio is adorned by a bunch of different green plants that run down the walls. As an added bonus, they have a complimentary water station The restaurant has music playing throughout the patio and dining area and is dimly lit. They serve some unique and exotic burgers including : the Flame Burger, the Blue Burger, the Hawaiian Burger, and the Belly Buster. They also have shawarma (spicy, Chicago, Teriyaki, and UA Classic). And if you looking for an adult beverage, they serve beer and wine here. I ordered the Sweet Burger, which came with fries. It only took a little over 5 minutes for me to get my food. It was fresh and may not have been the best that I have had, but it still was good. I would eat here again, if I ever find myself back in Chi-town. It is a chill/low key restaurant, with decent food. read more

You got to stop by great burger!!!! Always a great staff and super fast for not being fast food. House music not my jam but could be yours so give it a shot great spot!!!! read more

I never knew a burger could taste this scrumptious!!! This place really popped off with both the vibes and the food. You walk in and pay at an unassuming counter. When you walk further in, you're presented with the coolest vine/plant/wood themed decor with a koi fish pond in the middle. In the back, there is a surrounded outdoor dining space. I got the mushroom burger (which comes with teriyaki sauce, mushrooms, a medium patty, goat cheese and arugula), and my friend got the teriyaki shawarma. The burger was so juicy, and the cheese and arugula paired/cut through perfectly with the saltiness of the patty! The fries were just okay, pretty standard - though the garlic sauce it came with was delicious! read more

Amazing place for a quick bite to eat, very welcoming and a fantastic atmosphere, will be coming back in the future!

Very cool joint with everything from ping pong tables to an outdoor pond with various fish to set the ambiance. Very fun and kind staff. Very reliable burgers, but they also have expanded their menu to include wraps which were surprisingly delicious. A lot of variety and very family friendly. read more

Great food and an amazing garden patio, a hidden gem. Truly a quiet oasis right off Division street.

Loved this burger. The beef was well-seasoned and juicy, and the bun was soft but not too heavy. The sauce gave it a nice tangy touch, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The portion was generous, and every bite was satisfying. Would definitely come back for another. read more

My wife and I stopped in for a quick bite after an evening play at the nearby Chaplin Theater. The cheeseburger and spicy shawarma wrap were both delicious and satisfying, and the crispy fries were a perfect complement. We left full and happy and we're already looking forward to coming back to try more from the menu next time we're in the area. My wife mentioned that while the burger didn't quite reach her beloved In-N-Out standard, it came pretty close. And it's nice not having to travel to the West Coast to enjoy something similar! read more

This is the second time I came here and I would say the wrap is delicious. The chicken is well seasoned and the wrap is so thin where you don't get stuff with carb. I got the spicy chicken shawarma and my boyfriend got the mushroom burger. Street parking. There is indoor seating. The employee is very friendly, the first time I order my food to go they even write a note on the bag and pack two gum for us. read more

Found this place after a show at a nearby theatre. Chose by reading reviews. I agree with the positive reviews. Great burgers. Cool patio. Self serve style ordering was convenient. Front counter help was very friendly! Recommend! read more

Have you ever eaten on a lawn? If not, you can at this restaurant. Lawn has a grass theme. Better to go when it's warmer, then you'll want to be seated outside at the grassy tables and have a burger. There's meaty burgers as well as plant based, along with Philly steaks. A pretty unique kind of restaurant and it kind of reminds me of having a picnic in the park because of the grass. It was a warmer day so we thought to come here. This place specializes in burgers, and they have all kinds. Burgers need to come with a drink. The beer selection is okay. It's pretty basic. The burgers are the main thing. Each of us got the Veggie Burger. It's about $13 for a big one. This came with arugula and sesame teriyaki sauce. Good and filling. The buns are kind of big, which ends up making it feel like you're eating a lot. Cool place to get some beers and burgers. It's not cheap for sure but you'll get good quality in return. There's a ton of burgers to choose from and it even has one for vegans and vegetarians. read more

Burger and fries were delicious, but the food and quick service weren't even the best parts. It's the hidden gem of a patio in the back. The restaurant is on Ashland, near Division and when you're back here you can't even tell. It's cool, comfortable, and beautiful. I will be coming back and bringing the whole family next time. read more

At the spur of the moment, I visited 'Lawn Craft Hamburger' while in the area in search of a place for eats. I initially discovered Lawn Craft off of Upside application which offered a 6% cash back offer for purchases. Other than that, it was its outdoor lawn dining feature with tables consisting of actual growing grass that intrigued me to visit. Options for parking are either along N Ashland Ave or within the neighborhood. During this visit, I was fortunate enough to find a parking spot right outside of the restaurant along N Ashland Ave which was pay by the plate. And it costs no more than $1.87 for no more than 45 minutes which I did not use entirely because I was in-and-out. Likely on a different date when in an extroverted mood, I will dine-in to get the full outdoor lawn experience. Other than the group ordering ahead of me, Lawn Craft Hamburger was near empty! Per, Google, I noted that it typically picks up business during the mid-evening hours which I have no interest in visiting during. And for your information, Lawn Craft appears more as a fast casual style of a restaurant. Atmosphere: 4 (Good) I was acknowledged to order as soon as the employee was finished with the group ahead of me. I ended up ordering a Cheeseburger replaced with an Impossible veggie patty w/ Sprite. On the menu, there were only three burgers replaceable with the 'Impossible' veggie patty which were the Cheeseburger, the Mushroom Burger, and the Blue Burger. No more than 10 minutes, I was alerted via a buzzing/vibrating pager given that my order was completed which worked out well. Service: 5 (Great) I enjoyed each bite until the last of the "Impossible" veggie patty which could have passed as a real hamburger. Along with the veggie patty, I enjoyed the Truffle parmesan fries as well. Speaking of the Truffle parmesan fries, I was shocked to find them inside of my bag because all I ordered was the "Impossible" veggie patty w/ Sprite. Likely, the next time I visit Lawn Craft, I will order them now that I have an idea what they taste like, which was far from a disappointment. Food: 4 (Good) Being that I had a good experience, I would gladly order from Lawn Craft Hamburger again whenever in Wicker Park or Ukrainian Village area which I do frequently visit. Atmosphere: 4 | Service: 5 | Food: 4 Recommend dishes: "Impossible" veggie patty, and Truffle Parmesan Fries ~ Peace. Love. Happiness. ~ Thomas G read more

Just another Impossible burger. It's kind of a disappointing state of affairs where every burger place that used to have a veggie burger now just has impossible or beyond meat burgers. I don't know if lawn had a real veggie burger previously, or not, but it just ended up being the same thing. I love that I have a veggie option, don't get me wrong, but it's just too ubiquitous. Same old, same old. read more

This place doesn't mess around... they produce some tasty juicy burgers! The size of the burgers was big enough to fill us up for lunch. I ordered the cheeseburger with extra pickle. The pickles were huge and I loved the sauce that came on the burger. The truffle parmesan fries were perfectly cooked and very flavorful. I had to get an Allagash White to wash it all down with because I just can't pass up Allagash when I see it. The seating area is very eclectic; grass covered tables in the back and a bathtub full of koi fish. They have great food and atmosphere in spades!!! read more

Where can you get a good Philly cheese steak sandwich outside of Philadelphia? Right here in Chicago at Lawn Restaurant  They have a great phillycheesesteaks sandwiches with a savory and sweet sauce that is delicious. We had both just the sandwich and a combo with fries. It is well worth it to get the combo as the fries are also delicious. Next time we will try the truffle fries! They also have 9 different burgers, we want to try the mushroom burger! It's BYOB so you are welcome to bring your own drinks of choice. It doesn't look like much from the outside in the front, but step inside, go to the back, and it's a whole nother story. The decor is so cute and eclectic There is indoor (with a footed bathtub filled with fish) and outdoor ( a nice patio with a long ping table) seating available with lots of plants all around. I'm sure this is a favorite spot on a warm summer day or night. They do have an adjacent parking lot that is free, however, there are no signs posted. The owner is Ukranian, and there is a flag on the front of the building. So come and support this Ukranian owned business and have some great food in a fun atmosphere! read more

Excellent burger and cool space. I would suggest going in instead of ordering through an app, because every time I've ordered for delivery, they've stuck a lollipop through my burger-which is weird and unsanitary but I guess they consider it kitschy. read more

The #1 aspect this place excels at is the vibes--super chill, really euro-pub feel to the inside, lovely backyard-patio ambiance with the outdoor seating. I went with the seasonal burger (a Hawaiian burger!), and while I got a lot more pineapple than I was expecting (probably my fault), the tastes were on point. Truffle fries were decent. There was a small crew working, but we're very happy to point me in the right direction on what to eat as a first-time customer there. It won't be the last time I go, either. Really cute place! read more

Krasa - Season burger, truffle fries, Ukrainian Lvivske lager - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This restaurant is a small green oasis in the city of Chicago. The seating is open air concept, with plentiful seats to hang out and relax with friends. Also, the service is A+ and the staff members are extremely nice and welcoming. The overall ambiance and decor were definitely a 5/5 and I would come back to this place just because of that. The food I personally thought was a 4/5. I ordered a simple burger, which is their most basic burger option. I have to say that even their simple burger is huge and you will definitely be full at the end of your meal. My only critique is that I felt that that the buns were too huge, which made the burger a little hard to eat. I ended up taking the top bun off and eating my burger open faced which ended up working well. The truffle Parmesan fries are delicious 5/5 and a must get with your meal! Also, if you are feeling hungry and looking for a challenge, the belly buster burger is absolutely gigantic and will probably require you to eat your burger in two pieces. A fun challenge if you are up to it or super hungry! read more

Not even close to a 4.6 rated joint, all of the pictures have to be old because those burgers actually look good! They advertise 1/2 Pound burgers.... What you get is a thin pattie that's a little wider if you know what I mean. Beef quality marginal.. condiments also flavorless with no tomato or lettuce? Reminded me of a bigger Mc Donald's cheeseburger at best! Not sure where the great reviews came from but it looks to have just changed hands!? +1 for the nice girl at the counter. Talk later read more

A blog called this the "best cheeseburger in Chicago," but I happen to be partial to Small Cheval for the casual, no-frills cheeseburger. I went here on a date and sat in the patio out back. We got beer and I ordered what was probably the standard cheeseburger which was immemorable. I drove by a few months ago and apparently they now offer schwarma. read more

Hard to say this is really a top burger in the city kind of burger, but definitely above average and definitely good enough to come back. No fountain drinks, only cans. They have beer. From outside it looks tiny, like one of those places that has nowhere to sit, but there's a HUGE amount of outdoor seating (and some indoor seating) in the back. Very friendly staff. read more

My wife and I eat here before seeing a play at the Chopin theater. The service was very fast and efficient. The burgers were tasty and fresh tasting. My wife is gluten-free and they gave her lettuce to use as a wrap around the burger and she liked it. She said the lettuce was very fresh. I appreciate getting in and out quickly with a good meal. I would definitely return here again. I do know that there's a lot of outside seating, with Pleasant, looking vines and ceiling fans. There is limited seating in the air conditioned area. It was a hot day. Perhaps because we were eating early, there was plenty of room in the air-conditioning. I would not have liked so much if I was out in the heat. But that's just me. read more

Basic, overpriced food. Flavor was meh. Very basic tasting, nothing special. Vibe was kinda cool. Nice people.

I've been missing out. This is so close to my house and I've never been. But I was craving a burger so this was my chance. Saturday afternoon on a super warm sun day but it was surprisingly empty. I placed my order up front (I had the basic burger option with truffle fries and a coke) I sat outside there are plenty of seating options out there, but there are some inside, just not enough. They also have some games so u can play if you come with other people! My meal was delicious!!!!! The fries were golden and crunchy just such a dream. The burger was tasty. I could definitely split the fries with someone else. It was too much for me. read more

Highly recommend! You must stop by before the winter hits. My bf and I have eaten here twice... in the past 3 days. We went on Sunday and Tuesday night with our puppy, Charlie. The restaurant patio is super nice. The decor is trendy and upscale. There is so much greenery and the design is very unique and inventive. Our table literally had grass on it and a small tree on one end! Dogs are allowed! My bf had the Beef Cheesesteak burger both nights. He mixed it up by having cheddar on one night and provolone on the other. Very good, obviously! I had the Big House Hamburger the first night. It was also very good. Salty and sweet, the BBQ sauce had good flavor. Everything goes nicely together. I would definitely get it again. On the second night, I had the Simply Hamburger with cheddar. This was super yummy, I could eat this one everyday and not get tired of it. The mustard sauce was mild and I enjoyed it, even though I never eat mustard. All the burgers came on a nice soft bun with sesame seeds and a small yummy pepper or olive. We also got fries both nights. They are truly extra crispy as advertised. Very good... they might be lightly battered or twice fried, I don't know how they do it, but they are very good. Definitely get them. You won't regret it. Logistics: Order and pay at the counter, then head to the back and grab a table. You'll get a buzzer. When it rings, pick up the food at the counter. Of note, there's only 1 unisex single bathroom and the burgers can get a little messy, so you'll prob need to wash your hands after you eat. We really enjoyed Lawn and hope they stick around. Please support them! It is BYOB, which is THE BEST. It's also a great date spot, if you don't mind eating with your hands. Very nice. Quiet and possibly romantic, but still casual. I'm not sure what they will do for the winter, whether or not they will get heaters or maintain outdoor dining. For now, stop by or order take out or delivery. read more

Oof, something happened to the quality of this place. This use to be our go to place for burgers if you really got a quality burger with fantastic frys (see my old review). The last two times we have gone the burgers are wrapped in foil (they used to come in a container to prevent the burrs from being crushed/smooshed) and are now they are now more Akin to a cheap fast food burger and not a more premium burger. Not only this, but the most recent burgers have consistently given me and my wife a stomach ache. I also feel that their portion sizes have gotten smaller, when you ordered a side of fries,you used to get a good bin, now you get a very small paper bag filled half way. I really don't know what happened, but it's very unfortunate to see this place go downhill. I will probably try them at least once or twice more before completely giving up because it was so good before. read more

I really enjoy lawn burger for what it is! Great location and one of the good burgers in wicker park. The service is not necessarily friendly but I always get what I ask for.

Super cute burger spot in Wicker Park! This has to be one of my favorite patios in Chicago! It is super unique with a hidden garden type of feel. There is a bathtub full of fish, tons of plants, tables with a grass too that you can eat on, etc. Lawn is a great spot to play ping pong with friends or just enjoy the ambiance! The food here is great as well! My friend and I got the Bleu Burger and the Hawaiian burger with a side of truffle fries. The burgers were amazing and both were packed with toppings. The fries were great as well. This is one of my go-to spots to take friends! It kinda reminds me of Paradise Park, but a much more relaxed environment! read more

3.5 Stars Lawn is a very cool little spot in West Town, a place you've likely walked past a hundred times and never considered. You should definitely consider it if you want a great, late night burger that'll satisfy every post-beer craving you've ever had. I say this as a compliment: Lawn's burgers are highly elevated McDonald's burgers, a surprisingly similar taste with fresh ingredients and taste. Don't forget the truffle fries either, arguably the best part of the meal! read more
