Nothing really special about the place. Burgers are over salted. The place is overcrowded.

The place was nice inside, very small inside. The music was so loud that I couldn't wait to finish my sandwich and get out of there. I came out with a headache. My cheeseburger was good, I won't say it was the best I ever had but it was good. The fries were great, a little overpriced but very good. I tried the place out on a recommendation. I probably won't go back because of the long wait, you can't make reservations nor order online unless it is with GrubHub which is ridiculous. Finding parking is another headache in that area. Street parking is about $9 for 2 hours. I found parking about 3 blocks away.Parking: Hard to find street parking in that area.

Waited an hour and a half, we got a text our table was ready. Paid the parking and walked there. We waited another 10 min to be seated and waited another 8 minutes for someone to help us. Hashbrowns were salty. The burger was great but not anything worth waiting almost two hours for. Our server was nice just had to flag them down a couple times like when they forgot the egg on my wife’s burger. Also we ordered singles and all came out with two patties so we wanted to point that out before we began eating and that took a bit to flag someone down. They informed us that is a single there.

This was already my favorite place to get a bite, but on one occasion, the staff went above and beyond to help one individual in our party that needed some seating accommodations. For me, there is no controversy, Au Cheval has the best burger!

Atmosphere is busy and dirty. The burger is boring and very average, Culver’s and Kuma’s corner can beat your burger in every aspect. The only acceptable element in that burger is bacon but adding bacon on cheeseburger does nothing good -only to make it more meaty and greasy.Definitely short staffed, they don’t even want to hire enough servers! But then charge 3%+ surcharge, for what?Foie gras and egg is probably my only 4/5 dish, other dishes are way below average.Not worth the wait. We come Saturday like 5:45 waited 2.5 hours.

Food was fantastic!!!! Music was set at such a high decibel level it was not enjoyable. Bass was so loud my feet were vibrating. It was difficult to have good conversation.

First timer, burger was amazing! Customer service was great, good vibes, definitely worth the wait. Love that I was offered simple syrup for my iced tea, it's the little things lol

I went there 4 times, but haven't been able to try their food because of the "no reservations" policy. What's ridiculous is that they tell me that they can take my number and I can come back after 2 hours.Reply with one convincing reason why you don't allow reservations.

I had the single burger (2 patties) with bacon and a side of fries. I was sorely disappointed as the burger and fries were extremely SALTY. This is Chicago's best burger?! At one point I had to remove the bacon to reduce the saltiness of the meal. The service was just okay as no one checked on me after the burger was dropped off. Use less salt Au Cheval.

This place is MUST GO place if you're visiting Chicago. Top three burger I have ever had in my life. You must add egg and bacon because that is the key point of eating at this place. The bacon has such a deep flavor with sweetness. Also it's a thick cut bacon that gives you more texture to it. Egg is also used as a sauce when the yolk covers the patties. Lastly, their fresh fries are amazing with the garlic aioli sauce! I know this is a most popular place in West loop, you have to wait most of the time so you better avoid busy hours.

Burgers with thick cut bacon were a hit. The pickles and hashbrowns were different in a very good way, and better than expected. The most loved dish was the bone marrow with toast and beef marmalade.I only gave it a 4/5 because of their small vegetarian options.Vegetarian options: Small vegetarian option. Apart from the salads and fries, the only other dish you can order is the omelette.

Kinda pricey but good food. For a burger of $20+tip probably once a year is okay.
