Great burgers and fries! Love the sauce and a place that can actually do med rare. Service was excellent even after we left. CC co double charged us - firefly followed up on it several times to make sure we were refunded. Thanks!

Amazing. Just tried for the first time and definitely will be back. Burgers were delicious and our server Victoria was very friendly and knowledgeable and helped guide us on what to get. Definitely ask them to smoke your burger, you will not be disappointed.

Absolutely FABULOUS! If I could leave ten stars I would! Where to begin? The service is PHENOMENAL! So friendly and helpful when deciding what to get.

The burgers stayed perfect in transit, absolutely moist, and broke apart in your mouth with each bite! Nice an juicy!

The curly fries were also perfect!

I cannot wait to come back!

This place is a small gem in the heart of Lincoln park. As a student at depaul, u don't have much money to go out, but this place has a amazing student meal. This includes a superb burger, not like those on the McDonald's menu, 2 chicken tenders, and fries. All for 13 dollars and some change. Can't beat that deal in this area. Plus, the owner is super friendly. Alpha place to eat.

So I was strolling down the street, hungry but nothing really catching my eye, when I stumbled across Firefly Burger - tiny little hole-in-the-wall spot between Allende and that Thai place whose name I always forget.

I ordered the Bucharest crispy chicken sandwich meal (comes with a can of soda and fries - I made mine cheesy) to the tune of $26 after tipping.

Suffice it to say I *severely* underestimated the size of this thing!! It was delicious but it was also massive - like "college boy with the munchies on a Friday night" massive. We're talking 3 fried chicken breast halves, cheese, creamy sauce, lettuce, pickles, and tomato on a gigantic bun. And then my naïve self had to order cheese on her fries. Oof. I think I ate 1/3 of my order. I loved it - there was just so much of it! And, because it's drenched in sauce, taking it home really isn't very practical.

Unless you have a gigantic appetite, your best bet is to share a sandwich with a friend. But definitely do stop by and enjoy!

Oh also, the service is FANTASTIC! There were 4 guys working when I was there and they were all so friendly and helpful. It was obvious that they really wanted me to enjoy my meal and that was greatly appreciated. I'll be back but maybe next time, I'll order the chicken ceasar salad haha!

I’m not exaggerating but this is the best burger I ever had in my life! I stopped here without any plan after I arrived to Chicago because it was the closest burger place to my stay! Wow! I’m glad I did! I was so amazed with the taste, portion and the meat quality! The server -her name is Victoria according to the receipt - was extremely friendly and nice! All the best guys! Will come back for sure!

Best burger in America by far. Had it in Amman last year and was so excited to see it finally came to Chicago. Thank you.

Amazing tastes better than Jordan. It’s a huge burger. They just opened and super busy so give them time to get your order out. We ended up waiting almost 45 minutes but that’s okay! It was well worth the wait. Only complaint is that they had the patio door open and the AC off, it was hotter inside than it was outside.

Decided to check out this new place. I got the smoked firefly burger and my husband got the backfire burger. We both enjoyed the burger. I really enjoyed the flavor. Great smoke flavor!

The employees were really nice and helpful. I plan on coming back when they have a full menu. We went during their soft open.

Amazing new spot for burgers, must try! Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating and the food was incredible. They smoked my burger right at the table with hickory wood which gave it a very nice extra layer of flavor and really made the atmosphere pop. The stuff they're planning on doing here after the soft opening sounds incredible too. I'm definitely going back when they fully open for the brisket they are working on ????. They gave me a sample of the sauce they're developing for it and it's so complex, changing flavors in your mouth over 5-10 seconds. I can't wait!

Don’t let this small restaurant space and humble decor fool you— this place had one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time! The burger was cooked perfectly to my requested heat level and delicious to the last bite with the Firefly sauce and caramelized onions. The fries were perfectly seasoned with Cajun spices too! Because I went their first week they were opened (soft opening) the food did take about 15/20 minutes to prepare, but it was worth the wait and I’m sure those kinks will be ironed out soon. The employees and owner were incredibly friendly and inviting. Don’t hesitate to try it out! You won’t be disappointed!

Not for the faint of stomach! You get the bang for your buck. Burger was 9 out of 10. Cook to my liking and burger was juicy & flavorful throughout. Big serving so, go in with an empty stomach. I highly recommend it.

Truly a great new place. They just opened this week. Been there 2 times now. 2 different burgers, chicken and beef, and they were equally amazing. Their sauce is unique to this place and gives the sandwich the best taste. Absolutely love this place, and will be back for more. I can't help noticing a lack of non-meat option, maybe I missed it. But still one of the best burgers I have ever had.

Ahh! This used to be a Subway remember that? This is from the country of Jordan and this is the first location in the state and in the U.S. wow! Their known for three kinds of flavors - Cheese Injection, Cheese Volcano and Smoke Machine. Had the Firefly Burger with Smoke Machine and fries. Everything was excellent.

PS. This is the second Soft Opening day, so everything is not in yet.
