Kevin ChiuMarch 14, 2019While the burger is instantly one of the top five in the city (grt it with thick cut bacon), the Four Gras and eggs dish is simply one of the best things in the world. Don't sleep on this.Upvoted Aug 30
SolMarch 9, 2019Burger with egg and bacon is probably top 3 best in the city. Chili chicken is delicious and don’t miss the fries. Well done.
Upvoted 3 weeks ago- Paige CApril 9, 2019One of the best burgers I’ve ever had! The bologna sandwich, fried chicken, and bone marrow are also not to be missed.
Umair ZiaJuly 24, 2019It does not disappoint. NOTE: The single cheeseburger is a double, a double is a triple burger. The beef feels/tastes amazing, the sauce is great. The fries come with a garlic mayo, a welcome combo.
Jaclyn RMarch 11, 2019Amazing!!! Burger with egg is a must and order fries. The bar downstairs opens at 5 and is a good place to hang if you have to wait, which you will!
- Max WendkosJune 29, 2019Multiple foodie websites have named Au Cheval’s burger the best in the country. If you want the full experience, just make sure you get both bacon and an egg on top.
Damian BayonaOctober 11, 2019Tip: single cheeseburger (no egg), fries split with you & your honey & a glass of cab to wash it down. More food & you will be down for the count - trust me 🤤
Yes the burgers and fries are just as great as in Chicago, but take advantage of the in-house Sawada coffee and order a military latte on the side.
DamanMarch 17, 2019Burger is good. But thats pretty much it. I can think of quite a few better in the city. The menu though has a lot of other great offerings. Hash, marrow, foie gras and great drinks.
- TomMarch 19, 2019Go during lunch to avoid the wait. The single burger comes with 2 patties. Add the egg and bacon to make it the messy flavor bomb that everyone is hyping this burger for.
Christina ChinOctober 16, 2023Went for dessert and drinks..all good desserts but mille feuille and key lime pie were the best! Choc pie was good but soooo dense, too heavy for me. Great staff. Saloon bar downstairs.
Alex PyatetskySeptember 14, 2019Instant favorite. Single burger has 2 patties. Bacon on side is amazing meat candy. Green salad is the platonic ideal of acidic and herbaceous. Looking forward to returning.
Michael AnthonyApril 22, 2023Burger was great and worth going for but the star might have been the prime rib sandwich!
Elizabeth BursteinOctober 3, 2021Brady and i loved this. I had the steak frites and the oaxaca old fashioned. Brady had the cheeseburger. No need to get extra fries 💕🥰💕🤩🥰💫
AleMarch 25, 2019Loved the venue and the service and will definitely come back, but don't expect the same burger you would find Chicago. It's a different burger, different sauce, different meat, different bun
MichelleMarch 9, 2019For a table of 2, ask to sit at the two side seats on the kitchen counter. Best seats in the house by far as you get to see the cooks in action.
Alyssa B.February 14, 2022Maybe it’s just me but I’m not so a fan of egg in my burger. Nonetheless I was hoping to be converted but I wasn’t. Nice drippy action of the egg yolk though! The garlic aioli for the fries was bomb
- Noah WeissAugust 4, 2019Single cheeseburger, prime rib sandwich, fries, lots of craft beers — happiness
Honghui YuMarch 31, 2019The burger is really good but not sure that it’s worth the 1.5 hour wait and the near $20 price tag.
JohnApril 24, 2019Bologna sandwich to start. Single (double patty) with egg and bacon. And the pickles.
Kelsey✨October 27, 2019Obvious first choice is the burger...but the salads are great too! And save room for the root beer float.
Courtney DeshFebruary 11, 2020Great burgers with egg and thick bacon on it! Decent prices, cute ambiance. Fried chicken is also really good.
StefieJuly 27, 2019Single cheeseburger with bacon and fried egg, FTW! FYI single = two patties, double = three patties 😅
- MichelleMarch 9, 2019Single burger with bacon only, potato hash, honey fried chicken, Bloody Mary and Mille-Feuille
AmateurConciergeMarch 15, 2019Yep, the burger is indeed top flite. Fries feel a bit overhyped. Not a fan of the fried chicken (sauce is too sweet for me personally). Heard the bologna sandwich is what’s up
- Pineapple FroyoJuly 8, 2019Great cheeseburgers! Highly recommend that over the bologna sandwich, which was too salty half way through! Fries were only ok, a bit undercooked...
Michael CariniAugust 2, 2019Chicago burger classic in NYC solid all around, but more upscale here for whatever reason
Kristina PDecember 31, 2019Really amazing burger - but also the fried chicken and crispy potato hash
- David HowlandJuly 26, 2019The food was delicious and our server was friendly and helpful. Damn was it expensive, though.
Ray TsaiJuly 29, 2019Single with an egg! Don’t add bacon (too many flavors) and skip the double (too much meat) unless you’re REALLY hungry.
Jennifer YuApril 24, 2019Skip the fries and go for the crispy potatoes as your side instead. 1000000x better
jason pApril 20, 2019Very Chicago feel inside, nice servers, burger was OK, prefer Minetta’s. Mescal Old Fashioned good.

"Black camo latte was perfect. Stumbled upon this when going to a morning workout class. Same founder as Streamer Coffee Company in Tokyo!"

"Great spot to hang while you wait for dinner or better yet grab a drink and bite before your meal. The bar serves the burger, fries and more.."

"Everything was excellent, but there are a few must-orders: gruyere fritters, roasted short rib (could've fooled me that it was an A5 wagyu steak), & sticky toffee pudding (simply spectacular)."
Dane B - 9.2
"Cute spot for a date or catch-up. Recommend the baked ricotta for starter, skate for main. See if you can grab a bit of the pita that comes with the hummus and you’re golden"

"Vibey spot, got the chopped salad and the miso cod. Both were delicious."
