Short review: Great burgers with a simple menu (but not simple flavors), worth trying while in Chicago if you want something upscale that isn't going to cost a grand. Spacious atmosphere with professional and kind staff. I kept passing by and knew I had to try this after a long day. Immediately I walked into a really cool elevated British-pub atmosphere with a large Union Jack on the wall, gorgeous amber lighting, and accessible booths and tables for everyone to enjoy. This place lives up to its name, as it mixes fine dining for the bracket of where a burger is. Staff were kind and didn't hover too often, which I appreciate more than they know. I thought their uniforms were cool too! Once my server told me the burger of the month was a beef wellington burger, I simply *had* to have it. Medium rare, with a side of sweet potato fries (unfortunately separate in my opinion but I understand), and wow. Was it good. A perfect amount of moisture to not be a dry burger, but not a sopping wet greasy mess. I think anyone would want a cheaper burger, but I understand why something with that level of intricacy and curation is more expensive than the burger joints around the corner. Overall, I had a good time and maybe with my next paycheck, I could order dessert. Highlights: Simple menu with accommodations for vegetarians and gluten free customers, alongside a spacious area for bigger parties and patrons who need accommodations. Beautiful food that also tastes amazing. Setbacks: Price is understandable, but is on the higher end. This isn't a place you frequent if you work a lower-end job, but it's worth the trip a few times. It's Gordon Ramsey, what do you expect? read more

Ambiance was not there. Host wasn't friendly, and didn't greet us upon entering the establishment. Told us to wait, as he went back to sipping his water, help another waiter move a table, sip water again and seated us. The restaurant was not packed. Also off putting--a random "sheriff"/bouncer staring in my table's direction within 2 ft of us. He sat near us, just watching as waiters/staff would have conversations loud enough to hear with him. Just odd. The food was overpriced in my opinion for the quality. I ordered the breakfast burger--the hash brown was cold. So it was an odd texture to have a thick warm burger and cold hash brown with each bite. Also, when ordering-- tonight, they were cooked under. I asked for medium and received rare. As we were leaving, the same host did not thank us, nor acknowledged us. Giving a 2 star-- and that's being nice. read more

While trying to figure out what to eat on a Friday night, I stumbled across Gordon Ramsay Burger and decided to dine in immediately. I previously enjoyed the location in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood several times so I wanted to compare my experience while in Chicago. Surprisingly around 6pm the restaurant was only around half full so I was seated right away. The restaurant isn't as big as the Vegas location, but I also think it looked bigger since it wasn't exactly full. I inquired about the burger of the month and was told it was the Wellington burger which included prosciutto in addition to the burger patty. I ended up ordering the Wellington and it arrived in roughly ten minutes. I asked the waiter how he preferred his burger patty cooked and he said medium well so I went with that, however it actually tasted closer to well done since it was very dry and hard. I considered requesting to send it back but ended up not doing so. At least the patty retained its flavor. The sesame seed bun was lightly toasted. The cheese was overly melted to the point there was no cheese pull since the cheese was so hard. The prosciutto had flavor but was also extremely dry and hard, almost too hard for a bite into a burger. Because of this I ended up eating my burger with the provided fork and knife. Was my burger as a whole thrown in the oven to be reheated? It is unfortunate that I did not enjoy my Wellington burger at Gordon Ramsay's, especially considering how harsh he is on his critiques on television. While I do enjoy my burgers at the Vegas location, I think I'll stick to medium burger patties from Gordon Ramsay in the future and definitely won't be ordering the Wellington again. read more

We were big Gordon Ramsay's fan, so we have to try this burger joint when visiting Chicago. Service is below average. We got seated quickly. The restaurant is no where at capacity though. However when we ask for the check, they have indicated to use the QR code on the table, which we knew. The fact you can use a working smart device to pay is a perk and should not be a necessity to dine there. Next is ambience. Nothing special besides a Ramsey jersey with #3 (I would assume that's his 3rd restaurant) and his face was on a wall. The seat (bench) is uncomfortable. It is on a narrow side. The table was set spaced too far for the narrow bench usee which made it even worst. Did the staff even test the distancing when setting up to open each day? Thirdly the food, and my husband and I very divided, most likely because one of them is better than the other. He got the BBQ, and I got the Brunch one. We also got fries. We both got medium, and a bit borderline leaning a bit too raw than medium if you are picky. The fries was fluffy outside but HARD exterior. The BBQ one is much better than the Brunch one. The brunch burger onion is overly sweet. The BBQ candied bacon is hard and yuck. I even joked a burger from 5 guys might be better than mine. The bun is average. I didn't finish my food (not because the portion was too big, was because I decided to go get real food elsewhere). If you crave a burger, you might want to go elsewhere. If you want to visit Gordon's restaurant, maybe try a different place/city. read more

We arrived at our Airbnb around 2:30pm and were starving! A block away was the Ramsay restaurant and we decided to give it a try. We sat at the bar and had excellent service from the bar tender. My husband and I both ordered burgers and a side of fries to share. The burgers were cooked a perfect medium rare and the fries were hot and crispy. They hit the spot for these two hungry travelers. read more

I had pretty high expectations for this place since it's tied to a celebrity chef, but it ended up being a big letdown. The vibe was very casual and a bit worn-in, with a no-frills, slightly greasy feel. Overall, probably a 6/10. Service was decent. The server walked us through the burger of the month and helped describe one for me, and checked in once. Nothing special but not bad either, around a 6/10. I ordered the Idiot Burger and it came out basically room temp, which was honestly weird. It didn't feel fresh at all, like it had been sitting out for a while. Even a quick reheat would've helped. The quality was worse than McDonald's. The braised beef didn't taste good, and even though the patty itself was fine, the overall flavor just wasn't there at all. Not to mention, the bottom bun was soggy and top bun seemed like it was slapped on top not even toasted. Easy 0/10. The truffle burger was actually solid though, came out warm and tasted good, so I'd give that a 7/10. The water tasted off too, kind of like dirty pipes. Definitely something they should fix, maybe the fountain system or filters. That was a 0/10. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it based on the quality. read more

I'll be nice and give three stars, but I honestly would not come back or recommend this place. This was our travel day so we just needed something quick and easy for our hungry kids, unfortunately I should have walked the extra few minutes for somewhere else. The burgers were just really bland. If I'm paying $22 for a burger (that doesn't come with fries) I want it to be amazing and it just didn't have any flavor. I had the bbq bacon cheeseburger. My husband had the idiot burger - again, just ok. And the kids had the cheeseburger off the kids menu, which did come with fries, but the burger was literally cheese meat and a bun, nothing else. This could be fine, but again they had no flavor. The onion rings were excellent! We also enjoyed the truffle fries, but $12 is pricey for a side of fries. Our server was excellent, so no complaints there, we just were hoping for better tasting food. read more

The ambiance was okay, like any other fast food place. For the food, my husband had the Blue Cheeseburger, and he liked it. I had the Vegan Burger, but unfortunately the burger was not that great, it was too dry to eat. The description mentioned avocado, but the burger barely had any. Also the service was not that great, the server was quite rude to us. When I told her the burger was too dry to eat (very politely), she just snatched the plate from the table and went inside which was so weird and unethical. Although they didn't charge us for the vegan burger but the behaviour was quite rude. read more

The burgers are simply outstanding. I enjoyed the beef Wellington burger and some truffle oil aioli fries. My son had the bbq bacon cheeseburger and truffle fries and a strawberry milkshake.

The server also worked at the bar and the service was still outstanding. The ambiance is Gasto pub modern read more

Sat at the bar for lunch. Had a maple bacon bourbon cocktail that was really good. I ordered the basic burger that comes on a sesame seed bun, lettuce, tomato, onion. I subbed the American cheese for cheddar (they only have white cheddar unfortunately). Bartender was great and pointed that out in advance. I ordered a side of fries that does not come with burger. Fries were plain fries and just ok. Maybe if it ordered the truffle parm topping they would be better. Not worth the $7 charge. Burger was cooked perfectly and well seasoned. Not hot but ok. I would get again ir maybe try a different burger and some other than fries as a side. Giving good 3.5 stars and drink menu 4 stars. read more

Had dinner here while in Chicago. Had the Hells Kitchen burger which was delicious. I chose to eat the bar and the service was a little slow and the bar was not that busy. The bartender was very friendly and gave recommendations but he could have used help. The restaurant has an open feel with the ceiling open to show the ductwork.

As promised the food here was absolutely exceptional! The Wellington burger was such a wonderful balance. The chef cooked it medium rare perfectly. The fries were crisp and golden! The cookie was crunchy on the outside and warm as well as soft in the middle. Service was light, polite and inviting. The wait time was excellent and professional. The ambience was bright and with the light colored wood and open concept it felt like a perfectly crafted modern space to eat. read more

While in Chicago, I was asked to pick the dinner spot. Who can go wrong with Gordon Ramsay's Burgers. Sad to say, we did. We arrived to the spot on 2,E Ontario St. We were immediately seated. It was like a Sunday flashback. We waited patiently. Way longer than we should have because we're restaurant folks. My friend goes over to ask if we can or will be served. They were immediately seating folks after us but I saw the same service duplicating with other customers. Maybe staffing was an issue. Our server finally came and apologized, she was assigned to another section of the restaurant and didn't know we were hers too. We all ordered. The process felt rushed. She was going back and forth. Not clearly understanding or answering our menu questions. When the food came out, she had to go back because of missed items and sauces. Bless her heart ! I took the meat off the brioche bread. The steak was tender and seasoned well. It was a nice portion size. $19.00 My two co-workers ordered burgers. They both stated that the burgers were bland with no flavoring $17/$19. The Just fries were tasty. $7. The beer battered onion rings were da bomb! $12 Honestly, the food and service did not match up for the price we paid for dinner. This was a Monday night before 6pm. Definitely wouldn't recommend this location. read more

The restaurant was not crowded at all on a weekend during lunch. No reservations needed; just walk in on a first come, first serve basis. Layout of the restaurant is nice and open. I ordered the brunch burger. The burger was good but not excellent. Given the price point for the burger, I think I'd find myself frequenting other places that give you a side with the burger for the same price. read more

I had hopes and fresh perspective but I was not impressed. The onion rings were greasy, the fries were warm but not hot, and the burger lacks flavor. I was completely underwhelmed. The manager ensured that the inaccurately prepared burger was fixed. The server Zella was attentive and ensured that our needs were met. She was the star! But with tip and tax, I was disappointed with spending $203. read more

Clean modern atmosphere, almost like a simple brightly lit bar of sorts. Not too fancy, not shabby by any standard, and wonderful burger. Can't comment too much on service since it was grab and go but they were friendly! I was on a food tour - eating a little of this and that so didn't really have the full experience. The burger is well made, well flavored. I love a good burger (although trying to cut down the red meat for health reasons) and this fit the bill very well. The bun was good too. It's a bit on the higher end as it was 20 something after tax, but enjoyable. If you're looking for a yummy burger and don't mind a little splurge, look no further! read more

The sides are a la carte and were deliciously $12. read more

Finally tried Gordon Ramsay Burger to add another spot to my Chicago burger list. Overall, it was decent. I ordered delivery, came out to around $30 for a burger and fries, which felt a bit pricey but the portions were solid. I went with the truffle fries, and honestly, they were probably the highlight really good and flavorful. I got the Hell's Kitchen burger, and while the meat itself was cooked well, the sauce had this pizza sauce vibe to it that threw me off a bit. Not bad, just not what I was expecting. Wouldn't rush back, but it wasn't terrible either. Solid enough burger, maybe I'd give a different one a shot next time. Overall, pretty standard burgers. read more

Very good burger, I would definitely go again. Another place other than the skyline to visit.

For the amount of yelling Gordon Ramsay does, one would hope his restaurants would be of the highest caliber. Alas, each of my experiences in a restaurant bearing his name has disappointed, and this location was no exception Before I even set foot in this restaurant, we got off on the wrong foot. I was calling to push back my reservation due to severe delays on the Red Line. The call was answered by what I assumed was an AI. I asked "Are you a human or an AI?" The response: "I'm Troy, your digital host." Before John Connor can try and save us from the robot apocalypse, we must first start with this. Our "conversation" was something that's hilarious in movies and reels but aggravating beyond measure in real life. Getting a human on the line was impossible, and the conversation ended with me hanging up and saying out loud, "is this a f*****g joke"? The "joke": Me: "Can I speak to a human?" AI: "You'd like to book a table, right?" Me: "No." AI: "When do you want to book your table?" I wish at this point I could tell you that the in-restaurant experience was no joke, but then I'd be lying. It wasn't "bad," but it was more of a "Seriously, Ramsay? You can do better than that!" I had the opportunity to try the Beer-Battered Onion Rings and the Blue Cheeseburger. Onion Rings: About 10 years ago, I was in a London burger joint that made spectacular beer-battered onion rings. I could tell that these weren't up to par, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then it hit me: they tasted like they had been sitting under a heat lamp! I also felt that the onion was not thick enough to balance the very robust breading. As for the Parmesan, it failed to adhere well or melt even slightly, which would have worked wonders if executed properly. The one highlight was the ranch dressing--it was phenomenal, tasted homemade, and was top-notch. Blue Burger: When it comes to burgers, I prefer them cooked medium. Yet, I've found that nine out of ten places upon hearing this make it medium-well or well instead. To hedge against this, I ordered medium-rare. The burger came out, and well... when the server came by to ask how everything was, I asked, "Is medium-rare supposed to be mushy?" He offered to re-make it, which I accepted, asking for a medium this time. He consulted with the team and came back saying that it was more of a rare. Oops. Where is Gordon yelling, "It's RAAAAAAW!" when you need him? (Just joking, but seriously, it was very underdone.) Mistakes happen, and I awaited the re-made burger. This one was cooked to a proper, juicy-yet-not-messy medium. However, it suffered from a different issue: the crispy onion strings were burnt. This led to an overpowering charcoal flavor making its way through the burger, interfering with the otherwise good things it had going on. With the Blue Burger, it wasn't all doom and gloom, and there were several things I adored. The quality of the beef was marvelous, and it was properly seasoned (too many places pass flip-flops as burger patties). The combination of the salty patty, the sweetness of the caramelized onion, and the funk of the terrific quality blue cheese all worked amazingly together. The frisée was a nice touch in terms of greens, and while the spicy aioli did not make itself known to me under everything else, I didn't feel like something was missing. When it comes to the service, I want to give my server credit for being attentive and friendly. As for speed, I thought the food came out in a reasonable amount of time, given that the meat was grilled fresh. In terms of ambiance, the restaurant was what I'd call upscale-casual. Wood beams, exposed brick, a warm and inviting color palette, and comfortable seating all make for a place where I would love to spend some quality time... if the food deserved it. Final Verdict: In two words: "Not bad." They have all the ingredients (literally and figuratively) for something amazing. However, the execution on both the first and re-made burger, as well as the onion rings, was lacking. With Ramsay's name and the corresponding prices, I expect better. When I eat, I want good food, and there are places several tiers better with prices no higher. With this, I do not see a return visit in the future. Visit Date = August 1st, 2025 read more

We looked forward to another meal at Gordon Ramsay Burgers. As luck would have it, Jovan (sic this time) was our server again, and just as attentive and welcoming. As I rarely eat burgers, I opted for a fish sandwich and the unforgettable onion rings, husband ordered one of the burgers and fries. Understand, I've been talking about these crunchy-as-hell onion rings for more than a year. Regrettably the ones that were served were limp and greasy, not even close to the ones I remembered. Jovan had the kitchen remake them, but delivered them with the news that the recipe had been changed Husband's burger tasted good but was a tad rare for his taste. My fish sandwich was crunchy, but all the seasoning was in the sauce so a few bites that extended outside the bun were underseasoned; same with the onion rings, unless paired with the sauce. I don't know that we'll seek it out on future trips to Chicago. Especially for the cost of a couple of sandwiches and sides, it should have been much better. read more

Walking in just before a traditional dinner rush on vacation day one (still on EST meal times here, and it had been a long day!) we were seated instantly! The daughter chose the Oreo Creme Brûlée shake, which was soooo delicious and amazing! Then regular fries for her, and yummy truffle fries for me! Oh and did I mention the perfectly cooked forest burger I chose? (Monthly burger special, it was quite delicious and the temperature was just spot on!) a nice IPA referred by the waiter rounded my meal out perfectly and just made it perfect!

Hmm not the experience I thought I'd get. The burger was really underwhelming. It wasn't as juicy as I thought it would be, and the burger was more salty than flavorful. The fries were pretty good tho! I should've known better, but the elote doesn't even taste traditional. It was fancyfied but totally missed the mark on what an elote is supposed to be. Granted, it is a modernized American spot. I'm just a little disappointed knowing that Gordon's standards are really high and this did not meet my expectations. Although I've seen a lot of positive reviews on this place, and I believe we just had an off day. On the bright side, despite how crowded it was, the food came pretty quick! And as busy as it was, the ambiance of this place wasn't chaotic and the servers did a great job with being attentive. read more

A former Chicagoan, I was in the city for a conference and was excited to be back in River North where I worked over a decade ago. So much had changed since then, it was hardly recognizable at first. In the mood for a good burger, my friends and I set our taste buds on Gordon Ramsay Burger which was just a few blocks away from where we were. We went relatively early for dinner and on a Thursday, so we were seated immediately even though we didn't have a reservation. The server was very friendly and attentive and patient. We ordered the Hell's Kitchen and Backyard burgers and Truffle Fries to share. A third companion ordered just fries. We waited quite a long time for our meals, 15 minutes at the very least. And when they arrived, they weren't quite right. One burger was served with the truffle fries and the other was served with the regular fries that were supposed to be a separate order altogether. No biggie, quick fix: hand them over to third friend. Cutting into our burgers, though, my medium cook looked to be medium well and my friends medium well looked to be medium. The server confirmed that mine was indeed overcooked and relayed a message from the kitchen that the medium-well reflected their standard for that cook and the pink may have been an artifact from the lighting. The manager corroborated, but they did re-fire the burger to a well-done cook. While it took us a while to get there, the restaurant made good. The manager comped us for BOTH burgers AND a premium vanilla shake. The food was good, although I know next time to get the sauce on the side for the Hell's Kitchen Burger--only because I personally am not a fan of sweetened sauces. read more
