    Went here today with colleagues for lunch since we were at McCormick Place for ProFood Tech, but it was just okay. We actually all ordered the Greek turkey burger, with fries. I did like that they offered an assortment of sides such as a cucumber tomato salad or a quinoa salad. It took a while to get water refills, which is a pet peeve of mine. Prices were reasonable considering it was a hotel restaurant, the burger was $15. I'd go back again if I was at McCormick for a show but I wouldn't order what I did, as it was only average. The fries were tasty but could have used more salt.

    I was a little skeptical about trying this place after reading yelp reviews. But to be honest I felt it was a very very decent place. The patio was open and it had 3-4 fire places with relaxing couches. Rock n roll music was paying on a perfect volume. The restuarent staff was friendly and caring too. We ordered deviled eggs, tofu tacos and chicken wings. All of them were really good. Wings were cooked to perfection (I have had terrible wings at well known places). Deviled eggs could have been a little more hot.. But I don't mind. I would not discourage people from trying out this place.

    Tried this place for a second time during my stay. The worst! My potatoes were served with a fly and my pancakes were not fully cooked. The syrup was so thin and tasteless. Overall, I was very disappointed with this restaurant. For the cost, you are better off going downtown, especially to Yolk, for more breakfast options with better portions and better food.

    Worst omelet ever.  It has some oily watery substance underneath it.  The eggs are gelatinous.

    I find it very difficult to find any redeeming qualities about this place. They gained a star for comping the breakfast (I refused to eat because it was so terrible) but still $30 for one adult and one child to eat breakfast, while making said child wait the whole meal for crayons/markers and at the trail end giving him a used pen to play with the menu they provided still fails to sit well with me. If you're at the hotel and have a hankering for breakfast I strongly urge anyone to walk a little and go somewhere else.

    Fries were epic (crunch, pillowy) but chicken sandwich = big zero (no seasoning/flavour, disintegrated in my mouth, chalk taste)

    Fries were epic (crunch, pillowy and only needed a little salt added) but chicken avocado sandwich had a lot to be desired (no seasoning, no flavour, chicken just disintegrated in my mouth and tasted like chalk). Disappointed as waiter recommended it (why?!?!?) Drink menu was good and some large TVs with baseball on when i went.m. Would recommended for a quiet place to watch the game, bar snacks but not going back for dinner

    I really enjoyed Third Star. Great food! They have anple vegetarian/vegan options. I got the Sofrita taci and it was BOMB. They seasoned the tofu perfectly which I find to be rare. Great service and great vibe. If I'm ever back in Chicago I will probably return.

    Inside the Hyatt McCormick hotel, so very convenient. Good food, attentive service. Fresh garlic bread served which was good, and I got black bean burger and it was good with homemade bread, and I was happy for the vegetarian option. Ate there another night and got the angel hair pomodoro which was a little watery.

    This was a great little place! Service was great! Bread service delicious! Burgers were great for my son and I and my husband liked his ribs! The fries were really great! Better than they look even! Super accommodating with my crazy requests (switch out arugula for normal greens on my beet salad, Turkey burger instead of beef) and had a good beer selection! Not terrible prices for a hotel attached to a convention center- I was pleasantly surprised! We'd go again- you should too! Especially if you're staying here!

    This was a good choice for a solo dinner while staying at the Hyatt for a conference. The Bolognese came with a chunk of straight up butter on top (is it supposed to be served that way? I'm not an expert) but it tasted really good actually. They have several good local craft beers. The bread was delicious. Service was great, super fast. Point off for the douchy music but I'd totally eat here again if I didn't feel like leaving the hotel.

    so glad we tried this place! we actually only waited about 15 mins to get seated at the bar on a…read morewednesday night around 7pm. we came here for my boyfriends birthday and we were so happy we chose to celebrate here. the two people that helped us was antonio and issa and they made the experience 10x better. they were very attentive and friendly and just easy to talk to. gave us good recommendations and good vibes. we both really liked our drinks and were happy with the spread the food came out. we got to eat the bone marrow first which also came with this really good sauce it was almost like a meat jam but was so good on the bread and then put some of the bone marrow on for the perfect bite. now the burger, you just have to try it because it really is that good. the sauce in it was so good and it just had a really good flavor. it was just an elevated burger. we got fries as well and we shared the burger so it we were really full after. the server brought out ice cream with a candle and some sort of chocolate sauce too which just made the overall experience. we were really happy with the service and food and it just made my bfs bday that much more special and memorable.

    No good vegan options :(…read more I got the green salad and added avocado (paid extra just for 30% of an avocado) and extra dressing. Overpriced salad for sure. Also the outdoor seating was horrible. No umbrellas so we were melting under the hot sun the whole time. My friends enjoyed the fries but said the burger lacked veggies.

    There's just something about a burger that actually lives up to the hype--and Little Bad Wolf does…read moreexactly that. Stacked unapologetically high, this burger is everything you want and more: juicy, perfectly seared patties layered with melty cheese, crispy bacon, and those golden, crunchy fried onions that take it completely over the top. Every bite is rich, savory, and just messy enough to remind you you're eating something seriously good. The toasted bun somehow holds it all together (barely), soaking up every bit of flavor without getting lost in the chaos. And then... the shoestring fries. Thin, crispy, golden perfection--light but addictive, with that ideal crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one (or ten). They're the kind of fries you keep reaching for without even realizing it, especially dipped in that creamy, tangy sauce on the side. And let's not forget the drinks--just as good as the food. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and the kind you sip slow while taking it all in (but somehow they disappear way too fast). It's not just a burger--it's one of Chicago's most iconic bites for a reason. Bold, indulgent, and absolutely worth every single napkin you'll need after. The ambiance inside is GORGEOUS!

Loved the 90s female R&B playlist they had going! Little Bad Wolf has been on my list FOR YEARS to try the burger! My husband got the burger with fried onions and I got some Bao because those also looked delicious and were a popular menu item. Honestly the 3 stars are only that high because of the service. Our server was friendly and attentive + the food came out hot and quick. Unfortunately, the food was pretty disappointing. The burger was swimming in a puddle of grease and just picking it up made your hands greasy + was dripping grease. The fries that came with it were floppy, soggy, and sad...but at least warm? I personally wouldn't order this again. The Bao were better, but small for the price and honestly were just okay? It was nice they gave you sauces you could add, but I found the Bao's to already have enough sauce so I didn't need them. Overall I left feeling confused and disappointed. I don't feel the need to come back here - Little Bad Will was a one and done experience for me.

I thought there…read morewould be a lot of people so I was surprised that I walked in for lunch on Sunday and it wasn't busy, which was nice. My friend and I each ordered a burger and fries for ourselves. The NADC burger ($16) was decent, but it didn't blow my mind like people have raved about. I know it's not the original location which can play a part as well. What I really enjoyed and even finished my friend's were the fries. I love some good fries and these were top quality. You could taste the difference of the oil these fries were made in. They were nice and crispy and very good! I could keep eating them and would rather get the fries than the burger next time. I'd probably still get a burger since I need some meat and savory.

Even better eating it in person! I learned this is a pressed patty and not a smash burger. This is my favorite burger in the city! Such a cool vibe in here, very fun music and decor. I'm obsessed!
