    Aperol Spritz $10
    Susan J.

    Bagger Dave's has changed their menu loads of times since my last review. It seems they now have pizza. I've not tried it because the whole reason to go to Bagger Dave's is the burgers. Fries are a close second, but the burgers are what shine here. Gone are the Build Your Own papers and pencils (you can still order a build your own burger but it's all verbal). I admit I go for the Bacon Barbecue Burger every time. Newly allowed to eat gluten, I can't express how good the grilled brioche bun is. Heaven. The portion of fries that comes with the burgers has decreased, which is a little sad. On this most recent visit, there were highs and not-so-highs. We got seated immediately (around 5:30 on a Friday), which is much better than the 1.5-2 hour wait we would have faced down the street closer to Lima Road. The service was prompt and the food was delicious. I ordered an Aperol Spritz which was on the weak side and rather small for $10. My daughter got the Tavern Margarita that tasted mostly like mixer. $5.55 was an appropriate price I guess. Also I ordered a side of Mayo which never arrived. Oh well. I usually dip my fries in it, but the Santa Fe Chipotle was so excellent I didn't need it. Anyway. Will I go back? Definitely! But I will skip the cocktails and focus on the real reason I'm there.

    Cheese crisp bacon burger with fries for take out
    Chris C.

    We are staying in a hotel nearby and got Bagger Dave's takeout for dinner. I'm going to preface this by saying, I know take out is not the ideal presentation and the food could be a bit better sitting in the restaurant. That being said, my family of four found our dinner to be not bad, but not amazing. We had a great American cheeseburger, pretty standard cheeseburger. Crispy cheese bacon burger, good concept, I bet it is better at the restaurant when the cheese crisp is super fresh. Both burgers needed a bit more seasoning. Fish and chips was good. Blue cheese burger was good. Turkey black bean chili was not bad but was lacking that flavor melding that comes from cooking all day. The fries were good but really needed salt. The homemade ranch was amazing. Take out service was quick and well done. Online ordering was easy.

    Great American burger. 9.95 on tuesdays!
    Jim J.

    Stopped in for the 9.95 great American burger on Tuesdays. Excellent burger, service, atmosphere. An enjoyable lunch for a Tuesday. I tried the home made Cole slaw. It was a burger for lunch at a burger joint. Not bad but nothing special. I personally would not get ithe slaw again.

    Bbq Bacon Burger

    Bagger Dave's ads kept popping up on social media, and since it had been a very long time since we had gone and it looked as tho they had some new burgers, we opted to go there for lunch. We were the second table to be seated after opening, so the place was pretty empty. The music wasn't loud at all, but as we sat there, we noticed that the employees were certainly having a great time talking to each other. Loudly. Then the music continued to get louder until it was hard to communicate at times. Our server came and took our drink orders. We perused the menu for the new burgers we saw, but the menu seemed the same to us. For a restaurant who has "burgers" as their main draw, 8 variations (two of which have the same ingredients save for the cheese being different) seems limited to me. I admit I'm a burger snob, so I love to see a lot of options on the menu. So... I went with the one I have had each time we've visited. The BBQ Bacon Burger. Spouse did the same. We substituted onion rings for the fries (upcharge:$2.95), instead of having onion rings for the appetizer: $6.95. Our server left, then came back and asked if we wanted the onion rings brought out before the burger since it is considered an appetizer... We were a little confused. We told her we ordered them as a side, but she insisted that they were still considered an appetizer even tho we ordered them as a side. We asked if they were brought out as an appetizer, would we be getting fries with the burger? She said no. The onion rings are the side. Shaking our heads to ourselves, we told her we wanted them with the burger. The server was kind, but I do think some extra training might help her. We ordered the burgers medium and substituted chipotle bbq for the regular bbq that normally comes on the burger. Our meals came, and the onion rings were very tasty. I wouldn't put them in the same league as Red Robin, but they were good. Our burgers were cooked to order and also had a lot of taste... except... where was the bbq sauce?? Not a hint of bbq sauce anywhere. Was a bit disappointing. Overall, the meal was pretty good, but it will be a long while before we go back.

    Fish and Chips.

    I've had a chance to visit 2x over the course of 10days. I can honestly say they have one of the best burgers I've ever had. It's tender, meaty, juicy, and full of flavor. The burger is so big, it's almost shareable, but I don't do that. It comes packed with lettuce, tomato, pickle, mayo( yuck- I ask that if be left off), ketchup, and mustard. The vegetables are crisp and clean, no ugly spots, and add a touch of flare to the burger. I was pleased both times. The fries are ok, not the best, but ok. The atmosphere is clean and almost quaint. Due to Covid19, they appear to have social distance guidelines for tables arranged. They have a friendly and efficient staff. Well worth a try.

    Plastic utensils because they no clean metal utensils

    Meh! 2.5 stars out of 5...ans I'm only being kind because of the delicious burger. Otherwise...1 and done. Service was ok, but Our server was also the bartender and therefore had double duty and not able to provide us with the attention that we would have gotten with a dedicated server. .. however she did prevail and provide adequate service...but nothing special. The atmosphere in the place is blah! Not exciting or visually exciting, just a large dead space decorated with old time pictures and painted dark brown; Boring and depressing! Then there was the request for for fresh forks and spoons as we began to eat our burgers. In lieu of actual silverware, which we had when we began our guests. Anything less than that indicates that management is not capable of running the operation. -

Most often it's pretty good, but on one visit we sat and waited for nearly 15 minutes on food that was sitting on the counter because our pager didn't go off. On another occasion I had to take a sandwich back because it was cold and the employee went to put it in a microware. I asked for a new one instead and she did.not.like.that. Of the dozen or so times we've been to his location, though, the service has been pretty good. Likewise the food quality/accuracy. While I've yet to try their pizzas, I tend to stick with the "not really on the menu but you can still order it" Sierra Turkey sandwich and a Greek salad. While we're talking about their Greek salad...I love it to death...mostly. The downfall, almost every time, is the tomatoes. It frequently seems as if they're using yesterday's tomatoes, which tend to be squishy or mushy. The store is always clean. Staff is always impressively busy taking care of the dining room. In my experience, this location excels at keeping things neat and tidy. I guess the best way to put it would be to state that it's consistently inconsistent. I know they had a rough go of it during the throes of COVID and have been trying to recover since. Based on a few previous visits they've come a long way, and that's awesome.

We were greeted warmly, asked for a booth and were seated promptly. Ordered beverages and each tried a side salad: one the house w/shaved fennel, the other the starter Italian salad (oh my, both so good!). Loving extra thin crust, we ordered their newer Chicago Tavern Style (different from their tradition thin crust). CRAVE-ABLE! We ordered the Pepperoni Chicago Classic (pepperoni, mushrooms, green peppers, onions) and added sausage and green olives to it. I kid you not, the BEST pizza we've had in this area for a very long time! Their extra thin crust is made on premises (not premade elsewhere as so many do), and comes in 12, 14, and 16 inch sizes. Highly recommend!

    Giradano's (Dupont Road) - first visit after a LONG time away…read more.. It's been six years since I frequented Giradano's on Dupont. I love deep dish pizza. Though I'm not a fan of waiting 45+ minutes for it to bake. And, I've not found value in an expensive Giradano's deep pizza. Hence, we haven't been back. However, on this evening, we wanted pizza and a nice outdoor patio. Giradano's has a nice, comfortable, attractive and covered outdoor patio. Relaxing and cool. Nice street view of Dupont road. The facility is large and seats a LOT of people. It's a great place for large groups! The team here hustled and helped each other out. Our waiter Michael did an outstanding job - very friendly, professional and paced the dinner & refills. We started with "The Best" bruschetta. We loved the smooth and creamy mozzarella cheese. You could swear that it was just made fresh. The tomatoes were very fresh tasting. The balsamic sauce was a bit thicker and bolder in taste - very good! The outside of the bread was firm but not crunchy. The inside was soft and easily cut with a fork. This isn't the "best" bruschetta I've ever had. It was very good though! On this visit we went with The Special pizza, 14 inch, with the traditional thin crust for $27.75 - yes, still expensive. And, it took waiter said it would take 45+ minutes to cook - same as a deep dish pizza. The pizza is very attractive looking. Love the rich red pizza sauce look and covering of mozzarella cheese. The crust has a pretty golden brown color and the toppings peak through the cheese! The crust used for the thin crust is the same as the deep dish. I found the crust to taste similar to a biscuit - not my taste. It was firm in texture when cooked but not crispy - liked that! The pizza sauce has a rich and thick red appearance. It is sweet to taste but doesn't come off thick. I found it to be a little bit watery - not my expectation. The watery consistency reduced the tomato and Italian seasoning flavors. The moist sauce somewhat accented the biscuit crust and topping flavors. I just thought it could have been much better if it were thicker in consistency. The green peppers, onions and mushrooms were sautéed. This gives them a bit more flavor and helped them blend with the cheese nicely. The Special pizza has sausage whereas the Chicago Classic has pepperoni. I was really hoping for a spicy and bold sausage flavor. What I got was a very mild meat taste. I was disappointed with the amount of sausage on the pizza as well - especially since it was the only meat. Overall we loved the patio and the relaxing atmosphere. The bruschetta was very good. The thin crust pizza was good and pricey. The team on this night was excellent!
