    DOUBLE CLASSIC SMASH
    Mar W.

    Good price. Tasty, seasoned perfect, well cooked, great service. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

    Great burgers. I've come here several times since they opened. Most recently I enjoyed the jalapeño cheeseburger. The raw jalapeños adds a delightful crunch and fresh flavor to the burger. The fries are good too!

    Food is great. Burger, double jalapeno cheese, was juicy, seasoned properly and just really Good. Their smashfries were also really good. It ends there though. The front of the house service was a joke. It seemed as though the two people working, guy and gal, wanted to be anywhere else. They were on their phones away from the register when I walked in, I had to loudly clear my throat to be noticed and I was the only customer in the building place at 1:30 on a Thursday afternoon. The guy disappeared and the gal sauntered over and took my order. She then proceeded to do other tasks all while on her cellular phone. C'mon. At least act like you're thankful to be working.

    03/08/23 - The last time I was here it took about 20 mins to get my double cheddar brisket bacon burger. This time I got the burger in about 5 minutes. This burger comes w/double hamburgers, brisket, cheddar cheese & bacon. Last time I feel like the burger was better. The brisket wasn't brisket in the sense that it was cooked super tender. It was basically a slice of roast beef on top of 2 burger patties w/thin cut bacon. Come on if you're going to serve brisket in a burger serve brisket not corn beef. The burger was definitely better last time

    This opened up within the last year, and of course I want to support local business. It's clean, roomy, nicely decorated, casual atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Service was fast. Did not wait long for my food. The burger and fries were really good. I ordered the single mushroom and Swiss with truffle. Wow very good. The burger was tasty and you can smell and taste the truffle. It was very good I ordered fries and the fries were your typical fries. A little tad to salty, but bearable to eat. The fries were hot and fresh out of the fryer. Good experience and will be coming back.

    Walked in and noone was at the registers so I thought there was some automatic ordering machines. Turns out the cashier was around the corner putting orders together. She comes out and takes my to go order: One classic smash burger and fries. The family behind me ordered three meals and sat down. If my own family wasn't waiting in the car I wouldn't have cared that the other family got their food ahead of me nor would I have cared that I waited for at least 20 minutes for fast food. I asked the cashier if my food was ready and she chose to take more orders first before checking for mine. Obviously I left upset at the service but I must admit the food was good! Lol

    Cheeseburger

    To start off, this place has plenty of parking available. Walking in during lunch time the restaurant wasn't too busy. I was pretty excited to try this place since they had just opened. I ordered a cheeseburger with a side of fries and my friend ordered a classic chicken sandwich with onion rings. The food took a while for them to cook so my expectations were pretty high. The cheeseburger was good, but I wouldn't say there was anything special about the burger. The fries were also a bit unseasoned and could probably have used more salt or seasoning that they add on. The chicken sandwich I must say was not good at all. It was really dry inside and out/ either it was very overcooked or it was just old chicken. The onion rings as opposed to the fries were over seasoned and was really salty for my liking. Not sure if Smashburger is still getting accustomed to their recipes since they just opened but I don't think I will be back anytime soon.

    Can you all believe it has taken over a year living in Chicago for me to try a Polish dog? Better…read morelate than never, I suppose. I have driven by the ginormous hot dog on a carving fork numerous times, and finally made it a point to stop in. The vibe inside is old school. It reminds me of the counter service places of decades ago, not that I was alive. The same goes for the no-nonsense service, the analog menu, and little tickets with your order number. Don't misunderstand, the service, while efficient, was perfectly polite. And the upholstery and other furnishings are in tiptop shape. Everything is also very clean. Further, unlike many old school type places, they do accept credit cards. The Polish sausage was okay. I don't believe this is supposed to be a revolutionary, mind-blowing product, so no worries there. The only quibble I have is that the moisture caused it to fall apart easily, quickly making it a fork-and-knife affair. Where it comes to the Chicago dog, this one was great! Not only was it technically perfect and well-balanced, it also had that characteristic snap that few places have been able to deliver on. Only as a matter of personal preference I would've liked a touch more celery salt, but that's exclusively a 'me' thing. This one did not at all fall apart, even though it was the second one I ate, Finally, I want to award points for the value. While the Polish is a little bit up there, the hotdog is served at a terrific price, seemingly beaten out only by Costco! While Wolfy's is a little out of the way to take out-of-town visitors to, if it is along the way, you can be more than sure we'd be stopping in.

    Every time I come home, I make an effort to hit up Wolfy's. It's a perfect little diner atmosphere,…read morethe service is always prompt and friendly but not in that weird saccharin way, and nothing makes it to their menu without being excellent first. Everything they got is a great version of that specific thing. If I lived nearby I'd be fifteen pounds heavier, and happy about it.

I am satisfied with their response and improve my rating from 1 to 4 stars This isn't a negative review of the food which was the standard chain quality (good but don't splurge on it much for health reasons). I was in the area for a play and picked up a local friend. I went here because an acquaintance (who since died) gave me multiple gift cards to Portillos which I needed to use. I had 4 cards, not sure how much was left on them. We got $27 worth of food and I started handing the cashier the cards. She told me to scan them on the read light reader. Only one had a scannable bar code. She was not sure how to read the others. My friend suggested she swipe it on keyboard, she didn't seem to know this already. Card 1 red light scanned ok. Card 2 swiped ok. Card 3 she swiped and it didn't register, unclear if it worked. Card 4 brought the total to 0$. She wasn't going to give the last 2 cards back and asked for the other two. My tried to clarify that card 4 might have value left, she confidently said no. I was suspicious since the total couldn't have exactly matched my bill. The next day I looked at the receipt and it clearly said there was money left on the card, over 8$. It's unclear whether card 3 had money or she just didn't scan it. I'm presuming this was poor training but it has an element of malicious intent since she was so confident I had nothing left on the card and requested keeping all the cards. If you have gift cards beware going here unless staff are trained. Receipt attached for proof. If the business is reading this, can I cat my money back? Card 3 was for $10 value but not clear if it was touched or not.

Patty Please in Avondale does it superbly well, but SALT leaves some to be desired. While I wasn't thrilled about the patty that fell apart after I so much as looked at it questioningly, I am willing to offer some grace for a fast casual spot. I ordered a Double with Hot Peppers, and a side of Fuego Onion Rings (note: the Fuego are seasoned with a ghost pepper spice blend - be ready for HEAT!) Other than becoming a fork-and-knife affair after the first bite, the burger was fine, The ingredients were of A-OK quality, and the hot peppers added a noticeable, but not extreme level of heat. Spots like this where the food isn't dry or insipid, while not 'winning' are definitely not losing. Then come the Onion Rings. Massive credit to the worker for warning me that the Fuego has a ghost pepper seasoning, and confirming if that's what I really want. I asked for the seasoning on the side, as not to burn what's left of my palate off. I think it's not crazy hot, but I also breathe so much fire generally that Tabasco tastes "lite-mild," so YMMV." The rings themselves were fresh out of the fryer, cooked golden-brown and delicious. These rival the rings I've ordered at some sit-down spots, and are definitely the star. When it comes to the cheese sauce, it is A-OK for commercially made and processed stuff. Amazing for dipping the onion rings into! The service is great! While it wasn't busy at the time, the food came out reasonably fast for something being made fresh. Kudos again for recognizing that I may be making a flaming mistake and warning me how much heat Fuego really contains. Finally, in terms of the vibe, everything was clean, and there was a tasteful use of easy-on-the-eyes colors, and some fun art on the walls. Final verdict: I feel about SALT the way I felt about Panera before Private Equity turned it into an abominable shell of what it used to be. Good products at reasonable prices. At the same time, especially given this is a chain, it is not worth a special trip, but A-OK if you're local and aren't feeling the Golden Arches.
