Au Cheval - American restaurant in Chicago - 800 W Randolph St, USA

Each of us ordered the single burger. Apparently the single burger actually has two patties. The burger definitely can be rated the #1 burger in Chicago! The combination of the patties, bun is being put at the best mix. (Definitely add bacon, so crispy and adds so much flavor). I would be back to try bone marrow as well. I was coming in with friends during dinner time and was informed about two hour wait, so we came next day at 10am, no wait at all. So would recommend coming in during lunch time to avoid wait time.

Delicious! Don't think I can add on top of what others have said. **** For those with gluten/dairy sensitivities, they do provide options!!! One person in my party was able to order a burger with a "hash brown" bun on the bottom and no cheese (still comes with their mayo onions and pickles between the hash brown and beef patties). Was excellent, per that individual.

No reservations. First come first serve. When we came we were seated right away by the kitchen. Does it live up to the hype and is it the best burger I ever had in my life? No not really because I’ve had a lot of burgers in my life. It is however a really great burger and I would get it again if I was in the area. Prices are fair because quality was great. -Double cheeseburger with bacon and egg 5/5 -crispy fries 5/5

Au Cheval is another Chicago icon slinging out it’s popular gourmet burgers and fries. Been meaning to try this place for so long and finally had a chance to visit. I ordered the go to of many people which is the single cheeseburger but added the egg and bacon on top. Don’t be confused, the single is actually a double and the double is actually a triple so plan accordingly. The meat was well prepared but the extras of egg and bacon really made the burger. The bacon was thick cut and seasoned perfectly. Everything melted in your mouth. I’d definitely eat this burger again but be aware, it is pricey so it’s definitely a splurge compared to something like In-n-Out which tastes equally as delicious. Service was fantastic. Our waiter was great and even brought us an order of fries with egg and sauces on the house that we didn’t order so I was impressed.

This was the best diner experience I’ve ever had in America. Elevated diner food with no fuss, amazing taste and even better service. The rim on the Bloody Mary with dry garlic is to die for! The burger is juicy, tasty, super soft but firm bun, the bacon is just extraordinary and the egg was cooked to perfection. I was so full but couldn’t stop eating the hash brown… like, amazing. And dessert was just gluttony but absolutely worth it. I ended up sharing with someone sitting next to me and our server Spencer said it was on the house! Like, 10/10 experience! The only but is the line system at the entrance door is a bit confusing and everyone is jamming at the entrance which I found a bit overwhelming.

Before I get to the food, Would give 6 stars to service if I could, I hope I got the name right, Wes was just exceptional in helping us with our visit to Cheval from beginning to end and made the experience just that much more pleasant, thank you. As for the food , the cheese burger 100% deserves the Rep! Best burger I have had. The tip from other reviews on single being double really helped as well. The bone marrow was exquisite as well with the side dressing that was probably better than the dish itself. The Cheval cocktail was a home run. Everything worth the 1 hour and 15 min wait ( visited at 7:30 pm on a random Wednesday)

Wow, incredible food. The burger, the bone marrow, the bacon, the fried chicken, and the dessert were all 10/10 for me. I'm normally quite critical about the food I pay for and I would 1000% come back here for these items. Our server, Jenny, was incredible as well as she shared real opinions and recommendations with us. Come here, it's more than worth it. Only thing I'd change is the volume of the music as it's a bit too loud 😬

Busy spot. Arrived at 3:50 pm. Was told the wait would be about 45 minutes for 2 people. We put our name on the list and waited next door at the Lone Wolf. We were called in about 30 minutes on this night. I had the double with bacon, the wife enjoyed the single with egg bacon and lettuce, and tomato. Both were delicious 😋 I highly recommend.
