My family had lunch here today. The kids meals were well received. Chicken tenders and grilled cheese. I had the firehouse burger, however, if you’re looking for a spicy burger , you won’t get it with this burger. The burger was well cooked, it just didn’t provide the spice that was advertised.

Amazing burgers and great selection of draft beer including gluten free options. The server was great at making sure we received the correct gluten free options. The wings were delicious!!

Not great. Fries were cold when the food came out. Burger was warm but pretty salty. Considering it was $30 for a burger I would not recommend. Surprised there are so many other good reviews here because I had high hopes. Do yourself a favor and head to the shake shack down the street.

Great friendly staff.
They are short staffed so you the burgers will take some time to get to your table.
For taste I was content with but was not my favorite burger. My boyfriend really enjoyed and he just didn’t really appreciate the fries.
I’d come back :)

I'm in town on business, and had to stop in and try this place. Reviews were solid. This place DID NOT disappoint. Although the place is smaller, shaped like a rectangle with you entering on the short side, it had a lot of cool seating. Booths, picnic tables, normal tables, and some street window seats. My double bacon, egg, and cheese burger was delicious! Fries were solid, potato style like 5 guys...but better. Chocolate malt was good. Sharing pics. Staff was cool. Music was great. Their music system played Tom Petty, Marshall Tucker Band, The Black Keys, Spoon, and off-hit Johnny Cash. I'd go here again and again!

Came here after a conference and it was so good that I had friends come meet me. Carmen was working the bar and she was amazing, knew the beers and had excellent recommendations. She helped us to create amazing burgers from the build your own menu and made delicious cocktails to go with them. This was a memorable experience and when I come back to Chicago the Burger Bar will be what I base my entire trip around. Thank you to everyone and especially to Carmen!

This place was a great find on our recent family vacation in Chicago. Burgers are something everyone can agree on usually. The staff here were really friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was nice, great music, low lighting, and good for everyone...many families there with kids besides us. The food was Soo good! They had many super interesting premade burger suggestions or you can build your own. If you are a beer drinker they have it all so you will be happy. All of us left full and happy on our first night in Chicago. We will definitely go again!!

Our server was very great but the food was not.
My daughter and I both asked for medium well burgers and we both got almost raw burgers. If I wasn’t scared to say something I would have. But not worth our $50 bill when we didn’t even eat the food.

Burgers were pretty good but not quite as good as they looked, or quite as good as some of our favorites others in the price range. At $15-20 for burgers it was disappointing they didn't come with fries. Service was good, bit of an expensive beer list. Enjoyed our lunch watching March Madness, probably wouldn't go out of our way to go again.

Good burgers surged fast. I went for the great stack that came with a patty, sausage, and pulled pork. Satisfying in a friendly environment with great service.

The food was really good. There's no question that they have some of the best burgers that I've ever tasted. Their wings were pretty good and the February special with the mole sauce was really good. Will definitely be back

Been a while since I've had bison and the bison burger was top notch. The truffle fries were quite good (though not the best I've had), and the garlic parmesan wings were delicious.

It's actually sad for me to write this review as a South Loop resident, Visited on a Sat night and paid full amount + 20% tip to be financially fair. Service staff was nice. Unfortunately tap beers were foamy and not very cold. Medium burger turned out to be dripping blood and sent back to kitchen. Food came back was apparent that the kitchen re-cooked the beef already served on my plate instead of serving a new burger. Tater tots were just warm with a very thick crust. What I saw reminded me the TV show Bar Rescue... Good luck!

Burgers and food were fantastic. Shakes and wings are a must. Vibe and atmosphere is pretty nice, location is good. Gonna give the benefit of the doubt and say short staffing was causing issues. Server didn’t really give us much attention, but food came fast and everyone was super friendly. Expect to spend a little money, but food is good.
