I tried their basic burger with the works. It was very tasty, especially the sautéed onions. Very helpful one-person who also delivered my burger. Very spacious space, good for large parties. It seems like they have specials all the time. Ask the cashier for help with discounts, etc. read more

It was ok. Expensive for a fast food burger, and not really anything that WOW'd, so it's not going to be a regular spot for me. But a friend and I are planning a big trip with our kiddos and we needed a spot to chat about it. I ordered the classic burger (no pickles please), and it was good and quite filling. Next time I will not order the large fries, because they are not kidding when they call them large. The fries were huge and a small or maybe medium would have been plenty. The fries were really good, and pretty crisp, which I much prefer to limp French fries. I got some ranch dressing too since I prefer that for my fries. My friend got the patty melt which she liked a lot; she wasn't sure because of the giardiniera but it passed the test. The staff was helpful, and the restaurant was pretty clean. The parking situation in this shopping center is garbage, though. I am positive that the developers made the parking spots slightly smaller than what is standard. I've come here before and wondered if the cars were more closely parked together than other places. Most recently when we came for epic burger, the cars on either side of mine were just over my forearms length apart. I opened the door for my toddler and she had some trouble getting in initially, so if that's not evidence of the too-small spaces I don't know what is. Thankfully she's in her helpful era and she helped me get her buckled into her car seat since I could only get one arm in at a time. I couldn't open the driver's side door wide enough to get into the car, so I had to wait until the other person came back. (Shout out to the folks that had been sitting next to us in the restaurant; as they were leaving they said that they told the man who's car it was that it was parked too close so they must have seen me hanging out by my car.) So if you do check this place out, I'd consider parking further away in the lot if you're over a size 6. read more

Epic Burger - GARLIC PARM FRIES - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I wanted to stop here to use my birthday coupon. I ordered the Classic burger with one patty, Cajun fries and a small drink. When I went to use my credit, I learned I also had a $5 reward. I was able to stack them which was great! When I went to pay the difference the manager told me not to worry about it. So I ended up getting my entire meal for free! Yesterday was one of those days where nothing was going my way so this truly made my day. Once I went to sit down Wonderwall came on and I thought to myself "this must be the place" lol. staff has always been exceptional other times I've been in. The place was spotless. Ketchup caddy was clean. While the place isn't too big they can accommodate large parties. The fries are perfection. The right amount of crisp. I recommend getting 2 patties for a better burger to bread ratio. Epic gave epic service, flavor, and fun! read more

Review Visit: March 23rd, 2014 So just how EPIC! is Epic Burger? Well, not all too epic, actually. My dad and I came here after visiting Shedd's Aquarium and were hoping for some really EPIC!! food. What we got was decent food and some unsatisfied taste buds. Now the food wasn't terrible. But it wasn't EPIC!!! It was just a bit too greasy and a bit light on flavor. We ordered a meal each and the total was about $17-19, so not bad for two people. But 5 Guys is way better, IMO. That is a great burger place to go. SmashBurger even. Those are EPIC!!!! Epic Burger.. not so much. Maybe it will be EPIC!!!!! for you. Maybe not. They have locations all over the Chicagoland area, so if you do want to try it for yourself, they are not too hard to find. There are actually too many locations for me to list without this blog post becoming super long. read more

I hadn't been to Epic Burger in years, but I decided to stop in after an afternoon of shopping. We were greeted by a lovely gentleman who took our order. My sister and I both ordered burgers, fries, and Pepsi. The bill was about $40 for the two of us. The burgers were well proportioned, flavorful, and tasty. The toppings were fresh and plentiful. My sister ordered hers with cheese and bacon. I opted to keep it simple with lettuce, tomato, and various condiments. The fries were so plentiful that neither of us finished them. In retrospect, we agreed that we could have shared a serving. We dined in and found the location clean and comfortable. I'd visit this Epic Burger franchise again for sure. read more

Epic Burger - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

My first time trying Epic burger was probably what I expected. The burger and fries were just fine for a fast food restaurant. The space was clean and fairly empty for a Saturday afternoon. I would not go out of my way to come back but I also wouldn't be against coming back if a friend suggested. read more

Epic Burger - BUILD YOUR OWN BURGER - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Could not place my order because they didn't have change at 12.25 pm at lunch time This is laughable embarrassing at the same time read more

I decided to stop in when I had some time to kill and was feeling peckish. It was busy but I didn't have to wait long to order or for my food. I appreciate that they have vegetarian and vegan options and enjoyed building my own burger so I could customize it my way. I opted for a beyond burger with a wheat bun, Epic Sauce, grilled onions, lettuce, and added avocado. I also ordered a small fry. I appreciated that they deliver your food to your table so you don't have to listen for your order and jump up to grab it. Overall the food hit the spot. It's a good option for the neighborhood. read more

I work in the area and Epic Burger has good product. But it's IMPOSSIBLE to get any food in a timelymanner. I have a 30 min lunch break. If if I order ahead of time for a specific pick up time, I've always had to wait at least 15 minutes to get my food. Spoiler alert, my lunch break is half over. It's disappointing and I dont think I'll be giving this location any more money (or precious time). read more

Great burgers, amazing taste good service I definitely recommend this place the burgers are fresh and taste very good

ORDERED ON UBEREATS. - food came hot and delicious. I got the BBQ burger with sweet potato waffle fries. I would def eat at the restaurant itself as well. read more

I've been to a few epic burgers around town and as per fast foot goes it's pretty solid for the price range and quality. I usually go for the classic epic or the cowboy. They have been pretty consistent with how they prepare their burger nice amount of caramelization and charring on the burgers and good toppings. It always comes out like the picture and the fries nice and crisp with different options as well. Service is pretty fast and consistent. Never had wait. Nice and casual place to get a great burger. read more

My all time favorite burger joint! I love the burger, the choice of buns, fries are good and cool dining room.

Big fan of the sweet potato waffle fries; they came with honey mustard which was very good. The shake was also a bit above average. Burger was fine - nothing crazy but decent. Service was quick, only waited 5 minutes or so. They give you a number and you can go sit down and they bring it to you. read more

Epic Burger - Classic burger, Sweet Potato Waffle Fries, cookies and creme shake - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Can't comment on the food because unfortunately they refused to let us order. My husband and I walked in after our workout. There were a good amount of people eating indoors. It was strange at first that no one was acknowledging us when we stood at the counter to order. Eventually, the girl behind the register seemed uncomfortable and said "umm, we can't take any orders now." When I asked why, she said "we need to catch up on the online orders." So we confirmed that she was pretty much refusing to serve us as walk in customers. She went to speak with the very stressed out man on the grill in the back, who seemed to be working alone. He came up and told us if we wanted to order we could but we would be waiting at least 20-30 minutes for the order. We of course just left and ended up eating elsewhere. Very shocked to have this kind of experience. read more

this restaurant is awesome!!!!!!! i love it soo much i started openly weeeeeping because the food was so frickin good!!!! it made me ascend into the epic burger heaven, thank you mr. epic burger i love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Worst burger I've had in a long time. Burger didn't come with cheese and my boyfriend asked for a double and got a single. Quality is what I would have expected from McDonalds and was over $10 for a single patty burger. Also, they have one side option and were out of fries. How are you a burger joint and out of fries. Would never go again. read more

It feels slightly upgraded from a true fast food burger joint with their panera bread style ordering system (place your order and payment up front, take a seat with your number anywhere, and they bring your food out to you). While I do enjoy their burgers from time to time, it is a bit on the greasier side. Fries are okay, a tad bland and sometimes seem to go soggy quick. In terms of offerings, a burger (single or double), a turkey burger option, a chicken sandwich, and a veggie burger (beyond meat patty) are all available. They do allow you to pick and choose toppings, with some additional options for cheese, bacon, and a fried egg for an addition up charge are available. For sides, regular fries, sweet potato fries, or a side salad are available. Overall a simplified menu with just a handful of options and ability to customize to your liking is what they aim for. I seem to find myself coming back for their beyond burger from time to time. While I wouldn't say it's the healthiest of foods you could consume, it does bring some satisfaction knowing that I've eaten more veggies for a sitting. Anyways, all around a good option to keep in the affordable meals rotation. Service is quick. Place is usually clean and doesn't seem to ever get too crowded. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Christian had the absolute best service. He was kind, attentive, and very professional. His customer service truly just made my evening. If he isn't a manager, he needs to be one!!!! read more

Fine food but nothing to report. Sweet potato waffle fries were floppy. Burger was a hockey puck, not juicy as all. I appreciated the accommodating menu but would have liked a vegan cheese. We ordered online and picked up to bring to a nearby brewery. It was busy inside, for a Monday night. Staff was miserable. Food was edible but not worth any photos. read more

Epic burger reminds me of a smash burger or shake shack burger. I guess they distinguish themselves by serving other varieties of patties, such as turkey and beyond meat. The whole burger ordering process is a build-your-own-burger style, much like the process at chipotle. They also have chicken tenders and a few shake options available. The menu was easy to navigate for a first-timer. After ordering, they give you a number and bring you your food. The whole experience was a 3.5 Yelp stars for me- the burger was nice but their fries were underwhelming (drenched in oil). Staff here were friendly and the food came out quickly- great service! Eating the burger fresh definitely improved the burger eating experience. They have a bunch of chairs and tables outside, as well as plenty of seating inside. I got their classic epic burger with beef patty and brioche bun, cheddar cheese, grilled onions, tomatoes and pickle. I asked for their epic sauce on the side and I'm glad I did because the burger with the grilled onions and cheese ended up being very rich and juicy. I think the epic sauce would have made it just too oily and heavy for my taste. The burger patty is not too thick but one burger is plenty for a meal. I'm no burger expert but I'd have to do a side by side comparison to distinguish this one from other similar joints. Overall still a great burger that I would eat again. read more

Epic Burger - a cheeseburger in a styrofoam container - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is your average chain restaurant. It's not considered fast food, but I'd say it's pretty darn close! I haven't been to an Epic Burger in years and was surprised to find that they have fried chicken and chicken tenders now! During this visit, I stuck to what I was familiar with: burgers! Maybe I'll come back and try the fried chicken (however, I'd totally blame myself if I went to a burger place and ordered fried chicken that came out mediocre!) The burgers were not amazing, but not terrible! You choose the type of protein (beef, Turkey, etc.), bun (brioche, wheat, or lettuce "bunless"), the usual burger toppings at no extra charge (raw onions, cooked onions, lettuce, tomato), and the "epic sauce" (Mayo and thousand island). The cheese (cheddar or pepper jack), and additional toppings such as an egg, avocado, or bacon, etc. come with an extra charge. We ordered a side of sweet potato fries, which were crispy and delicious! Wish we ordered two! They have a parking lot which was convenient! read more

Epic burger has a variety of options and you get to choose everything. The ordering process is simple and build your own. My go to burger is the beyond burger. I appreciate they have vegan options available. They now have also the beyond tenders. I tried them and they were amazing. It's great option especially when you are on the go. Epic burger also has shakes dairy and non-dairy options. read more

We came in to try to beyond burger, and it was actually so tasty! The wait in line was SO long, but customer service was incredible. We got a chocolate peanut butter shake, but they misheard, so they gave us a free shake. I left feeling very full, but I didn't hate myself like I normally do when I have a full burger. The French fries are better than their sweet potato fries (not crispy enough, very strong honey mustard sauce). There's a parking lot, making this an easy option! read more

Wow y'all wow - I was starving - never had this place before and I wish someone told me how bad it was- nice folks that work there - but damn the food was gross.

Manager is sitting on the counter. A patron was concerned about the cook of his meal and her response was "it is made fresh I watched him from here. It is cooked." He walked away dissatisfied and began to laugh about his complaint with the cashier. I hope my food is done, I already have a negative opinion of this place and I haven't even received my food yet. Update the gentleman is back and she is sticking to her guns. No fresh burger for you! I don't understand what she is out making him a new burger, but whatever keep that bottom line.... Pepsi is all syrup, they need to brix that. Root beer was good. My burger was meh same with the fries. Nothing special here. read more

The burgers are really greasy. The fries are pretty good. The atmosphere is pretty chill. We got the double epic burger with epic sauce. A little skimps with the sauce because we couldn't taste it... Or see it. The patties are also pretty well done. They flatten them or something. There was a lot of drippage while eating. But I don't like that they don't disclose that certain toppings are extra on their chart. Like a slice of cheese was 99¢ more. I don't think it's really worth the price--I prefer Five Guys. read more

I just picked up a meal at epic Burger on North Avenue. The manager was extremely rude ..., at 4:30pm , I went up to ask where is my order because I felt it had been at least 15 minutes he told me to sit down and wait for my order at 4:36 pm my order came. The rest of the staff was pleasant. Can't seem to say the same for the manager, after he told me to go sit down was bitching loud enough for everyone to hear that it hasn't been 15 minutes. He's right my order was placed at 4:01pm ‼ when I got to my car and opened the bag, it was the wrong order but I was already driving back to my job read more

Literally the nicest employees ever! Ebony and Daisy helped me order, took my payment, and brought my food out to me (because I was walking my dog and was really hungry and knew it probably wasn't a good idea to bring her inside).
