    The Classic Burger, it comes with bacon
    Lisa P.

    Having a craving for a really good burger and a milkshake. Didn't feel like driving too far and didn't want to fight with street parking. Ordered two classic burgers, one order of burger egg rolls, an order of Asian wings and an order of fries. They do not sell milkshakes. The lady on the register was nice enough and I didn't have to wait too long for the food. I enjoyed everything but the wings. They were not seasoned or crispy. The sauce on the wings was good though.

    10/10 experience. These were some of the best burgers I've ever tried. The turkey burger was perfectly seasoned and they have so many options to build your own perfect burger if you want. There's a good amount of seating area, but most do takeout/pickup orders. Service was amazing. Michael, the owner, was super personable and humble. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about him and his story. Also, the old bay fries with a cup of cheese is a must!!

    I stopped by late in the afternoon after passing this place several times on my walks. They have an in-house made veggie burger that caught my eye. I ordered the veggie burger with fries seasoned with truffle salt. They allowed me to make modifications to my burger, such as using Texas toast instead of a wheat bun. My burger was topped with avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomato, mushrooms, and onions. I waited about 15 to 20 minutes for my food, which was reasonable given all the modifications. The restaurant is located right across the street from a high school, so it can get a bit noisy after 3 PM when students come over to get food. Fortunately, I arrived just before the teenage rush.

    Juicy amazing burgers with the best fries ever!!!

Thank you burger point for your burgers being ON POINT!!!

    The Classic Burger

    Michael was personable, friendly and knowledgeable of the quality of the food he was selling. The suggestion he suggested was The Classic burger it was del delicious. I like the location and parking. I will return for the Salmon burger.

    I've been knowing about, and driving past this restaurant for years and I finally got a chance to try them out. Their customer was great. The lady at the register was very helpful and patient with me. Letting me know how they accommodate to the customer, how you can customize any burger the way you want, and how everything is fresh and cooked to order. The eating area was clean, with great window seats. I tried the #10- (The Dirty South). In my opinion it just needed a little more BBQ sauce, but everything about The burger was good. I'll be back to try other items from the menu. I recommend others check this spot.

    Build your own veggie burger on a pretzel bun
    Mark D.

    The Burger Point: on point for veggie burgers! Food: custom veggie patty (vs pre-made name brand party) is substantial and keeps it shape, even if or when it crumbles. It's formed from chunks of vegetables, mostly potatoes, I believe. Build your own burgers and pretzel bun options are awesome! Hand cut style fries are a generous portion and also very good. Are burgers the point of The Burger Point? Yes, they are, but don't count out the fries. Service: go to the counter to order and pick up your food: minimal, but pleasant. They knew what they were doing. Ambiance: not much: a few tables, a quiet TV and it's peaceful enough to feel enjoyable. It's unassuming. Random note: it looks dim from the outside and I almost thought that it was closed, walking by, so don't let that fake you out. It might be open, unless you're staggering by at 4 am. Then it's probably actually closed. ;-)

    Double Cheeseburger with Fries
    Gino W.

    Was on the hunt for a burger this past weekend, as this was my cheat weekend. The Burger Point was my landing spot. Ordered a double cheeseburger with fries. The burger reminded me of hamburgers I bought from a hole in the wall during my university days. I got it medium well, and it came medium well, complete with enough juice that it wasn't dry. I do not like burgers near raw, Sam I Am. Big ups on the service during the ordering process and on follow-up after I had feasted on the burger sans extra condiments. I'm not a fan of gourmet burgers because presentation shouldn't be better than flavor. The Burger Point was just good.

    Often times in my reviews, you hear about emphasis on service and how I have repeatedly said that I…read morewish service in this country would improve (my comparison point being India). A brief background; been in Chicago for about 15 years. Heard of Au Cheval back in 2015 or 16. Took a while to give it a shot and went; wait for 2 hours. Hmmmmm, didn't work out. Tried a second time 2 or 3 years later. Still didn't happen. Tried a third time when I had a friend visiting from overseas....wait time was just so long and just didn't have the 'desire' to wait that long. I think for the first time in my life, I had to kick myself as I wish I would have waited the very first time. Had my nephew visiting me from out of town. While I did want to take him to Au Cheval, with the limited time I had, I did not want to wait. I happened to go on their website and noticed that they now offer reservations. That was one of the most beautiful sights I had seen in a long time. Not only do I get to take my nephew out to Au Cheval, but I myself finally get to try the burgers here that have been the talk of the town and were rated the best burger in the United States of America for many years. My nephew absolutely devoured and loved the burger. He was in heaven. I cannot say I was not in heaven myself because the burger was absolutely epic, but that's not just what this review is about. This review is about one of the few joints in America that I have come across and that provided the level of attention to detail and went way above and beyond what I would have ever imagined in my wildest dreams to make this a memorable lunch. She had gone with my mother-in-law as well, so it was my mother-in-law, my nephew, and I. My mother-in-law is a vegetarian, and we figured we would go ahead and get the fries. What we did not know was that the fries are in beef tallow or have some beef seasoning (I forget), so in the end, she was not able to eat anything. My nephew and I just ordered each a burger. Our server proactively brought a house salad, which was vegetarian, and he said, "This is on the house. You guys enjoy the burgers." That, honestly, is a level of service that goes beyond usual service, but there was human empathy involved here. After a while, the head chef comes out, super friendly, and asks how everything was. He then says, "I heard you've been waiting 10 years over here, and I hope it was worth it." He made sure my mother and I were comfortable, and he made sure my nephew was comfortable. The level of service and care here was very special, and I personally appreciated it from the heart. For me, it was a memory built with my nephew and my mother-in-law, one that is going to stick with us for the rest of our lives. Not to mention, I am getting hungry right now, so I need to make a reservation and go down there tomorrow.
