REVIEWS OF Umami Burger IN Illinois

Cannon Gilbert

I simply like their food. I always get awesome service there. The place is neat and the staff members are always very friendly. Will come back again.

Jill Schmitz

Great menu selection & variety. Loved that there were meat alternative options and gluten free buns. Will be back and excited to try different things! To note, though, everything on the menu is on the pricer side. Just was something that surprised me for how casual the place is.

Jalyn Edwards

Highly disappointed. I ordered the sliders and got violently sick and threw up in their bathrooms. The burgers-both mine and my husband's were bland and unseasoned. He asked for his to be cooked medium well but it came out rare almost. The onion rings had no flavor or seasonings either. We went on a Saturday afternoon and surprisingly they were not busy at all. There were plenty of open tables all around us but they sat a party of 4 right next to us. The tables are so on top of each other it felt like we were eating with them. I couldn't hear my husband over their conversation. All in all, we were extremely dissatisfied. The food was bland and made me sick. It was over priced. And the seating is too close together.

Bhupesh Patel

Hey! M from India when i has came in your shop. I like your shop

Michelle Rose

Loved this place! It would be a 5 star review if it wasn’t for the waiter forgetting about us after he handed us a dessert list. Will come back again. Great beer selection too!

Jonathan Pelissier

This place is a higher end burger restaurant with an asian inspired burger menu. Compared to other burger places the prices are high, but the food tastes slightly better. Although the food is good, I wouldn't exactly say it's a good value. When I first tried this place I didnt mind paying a premium price, but every time I go back it seems less worth it.

T Young

Good impossible burgers.

Gerard S. Cakan

Good food and good crowd always. Service might be slow sometimes but overall pleasant experience

Adam Beattie

Excellent burger and fries.

Fernando Mendoza

If you want to pay 15 plus for a burger that’s the size of a slider then you will like. Not a bad tasing burger but will definitely not satisfy the hunger for the price. Price is not the issue but cmon, enough with the trendy place feel and just give a decent size burger with a side of fries like any normal place !!

Julio Caban

Good Burgers slow service. It's a bit pricey

Crystal Morgan

A preferred location for quality Burgers. Dropped in on Mon I think. I will be back with my coworkers. The place has an awesome atmosphere.

Jennifer Kim

There was no wait on a friday night. The burgers was delicious and appetizers were tasty. Highly recommend the happy hour

Matthew Tepperman

We’ve been to Umami before in Wicker Park and was really happy with everything there. However this location takes multiple steps back because of service. We waited for an hour after we ordered to get our food. It seems like the restaurant …

Zahra Ali

I was really disappointed when I stopped in on Sunday afternoon. We waited nearly an hour for four burgers which came out before the apps. When I inquired about the apps the manager rudely responded ‘I just told you they would be right out’ and I didn’t hear him. Is is too much to expect apps to come before the meal? The burgers were cold and one of them had to be sent back. It is unlikely that I would visit again.

Brendan Daly

Perfectly average burger. Lots of truffle offerings if you're into it

Dakota Sullivan

My favorite place for tasty burgers. i wish there were more places like this around town. there was quick and friendly service. it has an awesome atmosphere. they have so many great reviews for a reason.

Joshua Hoyt

These burgers are so good they make you pity vegetarians.

Shannyn Bollman

One of my favorite eats in Chicago! I enjoy the trio sliders, the maple bacon sweet potato fries, and the diablo chicken sandwich.

Joel Jimenez

Really great tasting burgers, unfortunately, sides are separate and the food was a bit pricey. The tater tots were amazing! Not sure exactly how they made them but with the dipping sauce they come with it makes them very worthwhile adding them to your meal.

Robert Mech

Burger was ok. Bacon pieces seemed really dried out. Sauteed brussel sprouts came out so brown and burned there was no green on them. Waitress said that was "normal". When I showed her the picture of them from the website she then asked her manager to take them off the bill which they did. Took over 30 minutes to get our food at 5:10pm. Service was sub par. Overall this had the potential to be a nice dinner but instead was a disappointment. I would not go back, was simply unimpressed.

Shyrell Johnson

Confused staff, not capable of handling big crowds. Lost approximately $160 order due to lack of professionalism.

Robert Stearns

The impossible burger was AMAZING the first time I had it. Seriously it was the best burger I had ever had in my life. I went right back though three days later for it and it was a little dryer and less exciting. HOWEVER: the ambiance and …

Ashok Kumar G

Impossible burger was a really good vegetarian option. Fries were thin and crispy. A little pricey when compared to other work lunch places

Ryan Gravelle

Great service and tasty food. Indoor and outdoor seating.

Aleks Frayman

Good burger but... came in for lunch at 12:15pm and there were about 5 tables seated. Unfortunately our food wasn't ready until about 12:40 (my colleague and i just had a burger each, nothing else). The Sunny Side i ordered was good but difficult to eat as a burger. The top bun was well toasted and causing the bun to slide when i attempted to close the burger. I ended up eating with a knife and fork. Overall it was good but likely wont do again soon. The price and wait outweighed the experience unfortunately.

Luke Gardner

Came for the Impossible burger. It was mind blowing. This is a nice place, with a small but well considered menu. Music was very loud. Expensive margaritas. Fun, though. Had to sit at the bar without a reservation - check OpenTable if you're planning a date.

Jose Castillo

Great food, good service.

Amo Cenare

Went to this branch instead of the one in Wicker Park and we were quite disappointed. The quality of the food is quite different from the one in Wicker Park. The calamari that we ordered was burnt and the burgers were dry. Overall: Price:$$ Menu: 3.5 stars Food: 2 stars Service: 4 stars I won’t recommend this restaurant.

Max Paulson

Delicious veggie friendly options (classic impossible burger pictured) with a good value happy hour during the weekdays. Service can be slow but the food is good.

Cyd Reuter

Impossible Burger was really great!

Bearlynn B

Food was okay, but took extremely long to get it. Staff seemed distracted, but nice. But decent veggie burger.

Marcos Ferguson

This was a highly rated burger shacks, listed as one of the best in the nation! When we tried it, their burgers, fries, onion rings & chocolate malt was very, very good! One of the best in the nation? Um, I don't know about that, but certainly one of the best in San Francisco & Bay Area! Good enough to make my revisit list the next time I'm in the city. Stop by, give it a try and tell me what YOU think!

Oliver Kamyszew

Service was bad, the food was terrible compared to the Milwaukee location. Items were delivered cold and my party of 6 was forgotten about many times ... Which sucks because only two people have had Umami before, the first impression was poor to the rest. I wish we went somewhere else.

Bobby Heidkamp

Best impossible burger in town

Nanda Temker

Tasty, flavourful burgers with a twist. Love the appetizers as well. Friendly staff!

Sarah Semba

Great burgers. Love their housemade ketchup!

Cassie Craven

Not as great for big parties but definitely good for smaller groups.

Cassie Dossous

This place came through in a clutch. Good food. No 4 hour wait.

Nimesh Tripathi

I gotta say being a vegetarian they did a great job with their Burger.

Taylor Anzelmo

Would’ve been a repeat customer because the food was great. BUT, When I went to place an order they told me I had to eat there because of the voucher/gift card I had. So, hesitantly I decided to come back and try it. So I use the voucher after I ate and even though I only spent $17 on it, I had to pretty much throw the voucher away because not only could I not get more food (cuz it’s “take out”), I wasted half the voucher and they didn’t seem to give a single damn about the fact that I already ate in their DINE IN area. Seems like they just care about getting their money and don’t care AT ALL about getting repeat customers. I understand there’s fine print, but if I already ate DINE IN, then I should be able to order more for take out. BUT NO, WHY WOULD THEY WASTE $2 OF FOOD ON A CUSTOMER THAT WOULD COME BACK AND SPEND $100’S MORE?! They don’t care about their customers. Never coming back. Don’t need to feel unappreciated by some cheap, unprofessional “business” (so called).

danish haque

I enjoyed the best burger I've ever eaten and nothing was murdered to make it. Simultaneously indulge your karma and dopamine receptors! "Impossible" makes this possible.

Madhu VC

Impossible burgers and thin fries were too good. Both of us liked it a lot. But service was pretty slow. I understand it was 9 pm, but on a Wednesday and an empty place. Great food, but we got a cold service.

K.M. Fletcher

Love the vibe and decor. Food is usually good. Had the truffle impossible burger today... pretty good!!! Cheddar tots could use more oozing cheese. Love the variety in drink options.

Jake Mathew

One of my fave burger spots in the city. Fries are really good too

P Dydula

Great impossible burger.

Nathan Poling

Placed an order for pickup over the phone at 7:50pm. I was quoted 30 minutes for pickup (for 2 burgers). When I arrived at 8:15 I paid and was told the food would be right out. More than 30 minutes later my food was finally brought out to me, and was cold. I usually have very positive experiences with Umami but they definitely disappointed this time.

Jessica Baker

Best fries (and in-house home made sauces)!

Flamesrcool

Delicious burgers, but they are far too expensive

Olga Herrejon

I had the bacon lovers burger and it was an experience! So delicious! My boyfriend had the manly burger and loved it. The fries were perfect. Fast, friendly service. Some of the best burgers we have ever had. We went on a Monday night and it wasn't packed, which was great because we were starving. I will definitely be back again and again.

R. P.

Late night dinner... had the ahi tuna burger with sweet potato fries. The waiter was courteous and brought some truffle oil as requested. First time there, will go back.

Chuck Beck

Wasn't that impressed with the food. Was part of a larger group and only one person thought what they ordered was great.

Darren Hsu

It took 40 minutes for them to serve an undersized, cold Umami burger, and the tuna salad was even slower. Patty was bland and overwhelmed by the so-called Umami ketchup, which tastes like a giant pile of MSG. (I get that Umami is the theme, but it should really come from the ingredients.) The salad has a lingering bitter taste which is unpleasant. The tuna was overly seasoned with furikake making it too salty. Overall, nothing was right. Will not return.

jiggu B

Fantastic impossible burger choices! I had the impossible burger for the first time in Umami and loved the crispness and texture. Good variety of craft beers. Priced a little on the higher side given that the burger doesn't come with any sides. The number of veggie burger choices thanks to impossible makes this place worth it

Brent A

Delicious burgers. Higher-end pricing but certainly worth it. Great group of people operating this location. Music is good and atmosphere to match.

Tonnisha Bolian

The hostess was very nice and accommodating. Quick service and my impossible burger was delicious.

Viharika Cherukula

The serving sizes are way too small. I did not appreciate the umami which is their signature dish.

Karl Constant

Burgers were really good. Can't wait to go back and try something different.

Gina Dephillips

If you have time to spend, stop in. Two in the party and it took almost two hours to get two burgers and two sides. I know I know when did we go? Was it busy? Sunday afternoon around 2 and probably 5 tables in the place had guests. Food was decent tasting however the medium burger that was order was well done. Our server asked if he wanted it to be remade but, based on how long it took to get the first time my guest just went with it.

Ismael Landeros

Their burgers are delicious. Small venue but not overcrowded like other restaurants in the area. Shorthanded on wait staff but they hustle to take care of you.

Shauna Johnstone

Service was a little slow at lunch. Food was good but pricey. $50 for 2 burgers and one order of Brussels sprouts after tax and tip.

Dori Squires

This is the first place I ever tried the impossible burger and it is still the best one yet! Just wish there was one closer tell home!

Aqusa Farooqui

Def the best gourmet impossible burger!! The edamame, tater tots, onion rings, and shishito peppers are also great for apps.

Greg Damiani

Fav impossible burger so far

Tyree131

Would have rated higher but the price is way too high for the portions you get burgers are great though

Rajath Aradhya

Loved the Tempura onion rings and The original Impossible burger. I don't eat meat so it was perfect. My friends tried and said they couldn't differentiate between Impossible burger and the one with meat.

Roberto Andaya

Burgers and food were good but very overpriced for the portion. After spending $50 on my girlfriend and I, we were still a little hungry. The food is a little interesting so give it a try if you have no where else to really go.

Cherie Kripal

We were looking for a late lunch and stopped by on a whim. It was just ok, the classic burger was good but nothing exceptional; the onion rings were very good. Someone with me got a tuna salad that had 5 little pieces of tuna on it. The service is what threw me off the most; the wait was a bit long but the restaurant was pretty empty (2 other tables) and the waiter seemed uninterested and even discouraged ordering certain things. I am not sure I would go out of my way to try it again.

Tanapat Treyanurak

Good burger. A little too greasy.

K Tam

I've had two different experiences here, not sure if the staff is different Sat evenings vs Sunday mornings. Sat we ordered the Spicy Tuna Pizza and Fries, delicious. I'm not sure I'd order a burger again after Sunday morning experience. Burgers took an hour to come out and two of them were cold. They came out before the appetizers also. We ordered the truffle fries again but they had cheese on them. If you do go I wouldn't recommend the burgers.

nandini swaminathan

Loved the impossible burger! But the service could be a little faster.

Aaron

Service was good. Sweet potato fries were thin and the usual soft texture, not bad. Umami burger style burger was good if you like parmesan cheese on your burger. The appetizer brusell sprouts were not bad, a little too greasy, serving size too small for the price.

John Fierst

Bald bartender guy was awesome and friendly. Thanked us for being patient while he was understaffed. Food was great and no wait on a busy night, unlike the other local burger places with up to a 4hr wait.

Courtney Norton

Came for the impossible burger - my husband and I loved it!!!! The fries were shoestring which I loved, but the ketchup was a little funny tasting - but our "burgers" were absolutely amazing. Will definitely come again next time we are in the area!

David Maman

Great staff good food! Awesome happy hour deals definitely a steal for the West Loop

Jason Pearcy

Had the Manly Burger with truffle cheese fries and it was fantastic. The speed at which I received my food was a bit excessive. Arrival to receiving food was well over an hour. Maybe it was a one time thing but I will not know until I go back.....which I will.

Griffin Cox

Over-priced food and slow service. It's $20-28 for a burger and plain fries. Nice atmosphere, but I came for the food.

Robert LoPinto

Tried the original impossible burger with lettuce wrap and a side salad. It was succulent and salad was delicious. Only issue is it took a very long time to get the food even though it wasn't that busy.

Aeregon Cricket

This has been by far, the worst experience I've ever had in a restaurant. The food was not cooked right at all. Had a Umami burger, I asked for medium-rare and it was well done. Second time was medium rare but had sides that there more on the medium-well. The worst was the chicken sandwich in which the chicken wasn't just overcooked, it was burnt. Chicken was obviously overcooked and dry. How care you serve such a thing to a customer? And not to mention the staff was rude. I felt like a bother; as if they did not enjoy being around customers. Overall a horrible experience. With that in mind, I will NOT come back here.

Grigol Makharadze

We were going to the other place, where the waiting time the was hours, so we came here. We were lucky: great burger, good fries and beer, fairly priced. Good location and friendly staff, fast service. They also made burgers for us to take out

Jordyn Jarvis

My preferred spot for Burgers. Everyone at our table was enjoying everything. This place has a great design. Feels similar to a cafe in Chicago I liked.

Lib Hopper

While the Impossible Burger was good, it was way overpriced considering it did not include sides and the sandwich was small. $35.60 for two sandwiches! Although we got there five minutes before closing, we weren't allowed to eat in the restaurant. We sat in the parking lot watching the window as other patrons were allowed kept the doors open. Finished the sandwiches in the car and pulled off while others were still seated in there. Didn't understand why the woman working the bar that evening was so rude.

Marlin Exton

Sad to say- it was was a disappointment. The appetizers- the edamame, the calamari, the asparagus, were overcooked, greasy and salty, the manly fries, overcooked and salty, the burgers were alternately over and undercooked, and it took quite a while to get our food. It was also not really crowded, so we were confused about the overall service. Wouldn't come back to this one, though I hear the Umami Burger in Wicker Park is much better.

Sindy Ma

Got the umami burger and really liked it. Tots were great too, humungous aha. Took a while to get served but overall pretty great service. Would recommend and would go back.

Vatsal Acharya

Good place should include more veggie burger options, fries were amazing.

Emily Kapostas

We were happy with our Umami burger experience. We ordered two impossible burgers and fries. I ordered the BBQ impossible burger with slaw and jalepenos and my husband ordered the truffle burger. We were very satisfied with the construction of the burgers and the crispiness of the patties. The truffle burger was not overwhelming in flavor (as truffle can easily be) but the flavor was certainly present. We appreciated the Boston lettuce used in the burger also. Both burgers seemed to have the same spicy green salsa on the bottom which definitely upped the flavor profiles. The BBQ burger felt less streamlined in flavor than the truffle burger. It had all the components of a good burger but ended up with a muddled flavor. The mustard sauce overwhelmed the flavor of the BBQ sauce which was disappointing. I think we would both order the truffle burger on a return visit. We certainly appreciate the effort of varying the flavors from the "classic" burger as is so frequently seen with the impossible patty. Now on to the fries. Delicious!!! Perfectly crispy and thin. We ordered one "full" order to split. Perfect portions for the two of us. We were served what seemed to be mayo on the side which seems to be a lack of an eye for detail on the waitresses part. Why waste mayo on a table of announced vegans? The service was otherwise good and prompt after the initial wait for our server. We will be back.

Ruth Salgado

Food and drinks were delicious!

Alex James

Truffle burger. The truffle sauce was a little much and the burger bun needed to be toasted. I couldn't really get the flavor of the meat. Now the sweet potato fries are a recommend. They are seasoned perfectly

Dino Gane-Palmer né Ganesarajah

Might be good for beef and meatless impossible burgers, but terrible chicken burger. Has a sports bar vibe. Probably a good place for younger folks.

Shane Lemke

The food here is fantastic! I had an impossible burger, my friend ordered a normal beef burger. We both agreed that they were top notch! The service was fast and friendly, the atmosphere is great! We also ordered the brussel sprout …

Cinar Tuncel

Went there after an awesome experience few months ago at the Wicker Park location but West Loop wasn’t up to that standard. It was pretty empty when we got there and ordered some fries, part of the happy hour, but that was cold and the umami burger came without roasted tomatoes. If you really want to try Umami, I’d say try the Wicker Park location (hoping that it’ll still have the same quality)

Hillary Jones

Very nice restaurant. Our waiter was helpful and very friendly. The food was good (and arrived very quickly), and so was the service. Very pleasant experience. I suggest the cheese tater tots, they melt in your mouth.

Heather Elrod

Good choices for gluten free and vegan

Ray Joyce

The Impossible Burger is absolutely amazing, and did not disappoint. However, Kristen stole the show. I came in very close to when my flight would be departing and she provided quick service that was equal parts fantastic. 5/5

Benjamin Lawson

Good stuff, carries Impossible Burgers.

Darrin Anderson

Fantastic food. A++++

Oved Sanchez

Everything so salty

Jake Garner

Incredible food. Not the most pricey food that I have had either. Still extremely good.

Filip Alcevski

the staff was realy nice but the burgers were overpriced.

Tatiana Pavich

I have been multiple times to Umami burger and I think I have tried almost evey burger on the menu which now I can say that every burger is outstanding! Like many people I came to Umami because Au Cheval had a line out the door and I was in the mood for burgers. Now Umami is the only burger place I go to. Everyone always claims Au Cheval is the best and yes their burgers are good, Umami is equally as good if not better! The truffle fries are amazing. Love how thin the fries are. Each burger patty is juicy & flavorful. Even when I reheat my doggy bag at home the patty tastes just as good as if fresh out of the kitchen. Umami is #1 in my book!

Moksh Budhia

Great restaurant

Lisa Knutson

Miami burger and Manly burger with Sweet potato fries...super yummy!!!

Elena Frankel

We came here for the impossible burgers as one person in our party was vegan and he was very excited to try it. Unfortunately, most of the parts of the impossible burgers, bun and toppings, were not vegan. Luckily, they did offer our vegan some substitutions- avocado and a complimentary side of fries. All that was great, but the food was even better. We will absolutely be back!

David Schwartz

Not as good as i expected. The positive, nice atmosphere abd friendly service. Pricces were reasonable. The burger had an interesting taste and the bun was nice. But the bun and the hamburgers were overcooked and dried out. Since they didn't ask me how it was i felt they and i missed out for an opportunity to get some feedback. In chicago there is to many spots to have to worry about what was missed

Ciara Patterson

Visiting from South Carolina stopped here for lunch. I ordered the Manly & sweet potato fries. It was very fresh & satisfying. Definitely will be returning! Service was great also

Julia Cronin

Friendly staff, delicious food.

Saad AlQahtani

I tried 4 times, only the CALI burger that was good and juicy, and the sweet potato fries was ok, but the other nothing special They have good and smiley crew

Sarah Orswell

I don’t mind grease, but burger was way too greasy.

Gizem Ayse Gokalp

I had the umami burger. It was decent, I still haven’t had the best juicy burger in Chicago. We both ordered maple bacon and truffle fries. Maple bacon is worth to try, but it’s very very heavy.

Rebeca Hisa

Very good place to eat snd drink. Very affordable. Happy hour is $3 truffle fries, $4 any draft, except moody tongue.

Anthony Zamora

Pretty good customer service, and the burgers are cooked to the way you’d want it. Drinks are also somewhat great. Very great for a quick casual dinner nothing overtly appealing.

T S

A tasty heckin' burger! My table ordered all the different fries they have. Weren't disappointed.

Sean Flynn

Impossibly good!! One of the first to serve up Impossible Burger. Well worth Happy Hour for draft and fries.

PJay B

Best impossible burgers ever!!!! Top shelf alcohol!!!!! Prices high for al le cart 14-18 for a burger no fires. Wtf

John Dwyer

Nice, upscale burger restaurant. Interesting combinations and choices. I tried a Hatch chili burger that was juicy and delicious...hatch chilies have a delicate zing. The pickled beet aperitif was tangy and tasty. Service was very friendly but a little slow considering my post lunch hour arrival.

Ella D

Had Umami burger for the first time while in the west coast, I was thrilled to know we had one close to home. My so and I came in to a pretty empty dining room. We both ordered the same thing which was the three slider sampler. We sat at the bar and somehow it took well over 25 minutes to bring out six little burgers. I hope this isn't a typical experience here.

Chan Woo Park

The burgers are definitely worth the hype! The server correctly recommended medium rare for my Manly burger, one of the best I've had in Chicago. Additionally, I usually don't like thin fries, but these were great, mealy and crispy with four kinds of sauce (one of them was quite spicy). The only con: my Sprite was watery.

Laura Wistrand

My husband and I got the impossible burger. It is the most realistic vegetarian burger I have ever had. Everything was delicious, we also got the pickled platter as an appetizer. I recommend both! This place is also good for meat eaters. The burger options are extensive. I recommend this for vegetarians and non vegetarians.

Fly WEST

Their impossible bbq burger was pretty good I must. Unfortunately I experienced a long wait time and found the food to be over priced

Angela Flatland

The impossible burger is soooo good. It just needs some vegan cheese slices and vegan mayo. I brought my own slices from Follow Your Heart.

Jonathan Carter

Really enjoyed my burger here. Was cooked perfectly, and all of the toppings were good. There were a lot of interesting burgers on the menu -- it was hard to pick just one. I highly recommend the truffle fries, as they were even better than …

josh prange

Second visit to this great little burger joint in the west loop. It is in a great neighbor hood and shares the great atmosphere. The food is well priced and you definitely get more than what you pay for. We will be back soon for sure, and will always recommend to our friends.

Nathan Laudick

Great non-meat burger.

Britteny Cobbins

Great food, hard working staff

Carrie M

LOVE LOVE this place. The Impossible burgers are to die for!!!! Staff is wonderful

Matt Georgopulos

Delicious and creative burgers and sides. Burger came out a little sloppy, presentation could have used some work, but service was timely, courteous and informative. Good outdoor seating area and clean look.

D Villegas

Great Japanese beef burger! Awesome frites!

V Juarez

This is what a real burger taste like. It was my first time today trying them out. Let me just say I'll be back soon. Amazing service, good feel, and great eats...

Shelby Hobbs

Fine location for quality Burgers. Good place to hang and eat some good food. The service was very sociable and kind.

Kasia Kois

Love coming to this place! Pete was our server the last time we went and he was very attentive and humorous. We both got the impossible burgers, which, by the way, most of the food comes out surprisingly fast.

Kimberly Marquez

Drinks and burgers are pretty great here. The wait staff is super nice and fast.

Justin Jones

Awesome burgers and surprisingly complete bar.

John Oldani

Great beef burger in the "traditional burger". I'll be headed back to try one of their famous "impossible burgers"

Alex cj

Great food and drinks, but their poke bowl tasted like a ceasar salad

Terrence White

Great place! Very cozy, quaint spot!! Not to mention the burgers are delicious!!!

Ashley Beckord

Went on a winter Saturday night, just a group of two. We had a reservation, which was good because they were almost full. We were seated right next to the door which was very cold. Our server was also slow the whole evening. We ordered 2 burgers and 2 sides. Our server returned about 5 minutes later to tell us they were out of the cheesy tots (before 8pm) and ask if we wanted something else. We asked to check the menu quick, and she returned 10 minutes later to put in that order. During this time we did get our drinks, one of which was the wrong wine, but it was so loud in there we didn't bother correcting it. We then got our food which was ok. The table next to us was seated and ordered before we sat down, they got their meal at the same time as us and seemed frustrated with the time and temperature as well. We had to flag our server for the check after sitting with empty plates and glasses for awhile, and were happy to leave. Icing on top of this experience was an opentable alert that the restaurant marked me as a no show. Will not be returning. Recommend ordering via delivery if you've been before and want the food, atmosphere has tanked over the last year.

Veg Review: Umami burger had one of the awesomest Vegan burger with The impossible burger patty. It was packed with deliciousness, though this place is pricy the burgers are worth it. Just so god damn good. The charred shishito peppers required more seasoning. But their impossible Trufflemaker was one of the best burgers I have ever had. Definitely recommend going here!!

mathew freistadt

Way slow for area. People only have 1 hour for lunch . Food arrived 45 min after order . No chicken wings preoared week after new menu item was launched. Burgers overcooked. Just dissapdisapp because original locations on West coast we're awesome experience.

Tara Collins

Burgers and the atmosphere here is quality. Got there near five, it wasn't very busy. I can see why they have so many great reviews.

Mawile #303

Long serving time but worth it

Janice French

Service is slow, 35 mins for a side salad in a almost empty place

Dan Murphy

Fantastic food especially late night!

Darrin Lim

The Impossible Burger was impossibly good, and probably the best burger I’ve ever had in my entire life. Their sauces, especially the Umami Ketchup, were delicious. The spicy was pretty spicy though, so watch out. The atmosphere was pretty relaxed and cool. A touch expensive, by definitely worth it just for the burger.

Emanuele Grossi

Burgers are expensive ($13-16) and fries are not included in the price. Overall, the portions are very small. Two out of 4 burgers we ordered were undercooked (one was almost rare, instead of medium), something you would not expect from a burger restaurant. Service is quite slow and unprofessional. The only positive note is the aoili.

Vishal Malapati

Casual place really good food

Elita Stokes

They should have some more burger selections . Other than that the food was great, the ambiance was nice and the bartender was friendly! Great for dining alone and with company.

Clark Nelson

Expensive and the service is pretty bad. One time I came here during the lunch rush and only two people were working, one bartender and one waiter for the whole place. After standing around for a few minutes we left for the McDonald's next door.

Sammie Lane

service was very slow however for was amazing

Jenelle Wittmann

Atmosphere is relaxed! Drinks were spot on thanks to the recommendation of the wonderful bar tender. Only ordered appetizers but they were delicious

alex ocampo

Great burgers and great drinks and good customer service

K T

I wished I remembered the name of my server. He was really nice and gave great recommendations. I enjoyed the burgers and the truffle fries that came with four sauces and the desserts!!!

Bharat Naik

Decent burgers but nothing special. Rather pricey place just for a burger and drink.

Mike Hoag

Really disappointing burger place, cold, austere, trying to be hip. Couldn't really taste the burger, and the other dishes weren't much better. Not worth the price.

Jason Shaw Jr

good burgers with great fries. expect a large bill but it is worth it.

Craig Kress

Better than expected. Great service, truffle fries were awesome. And no wait.

ADAM STANLEY

Slow slow slow. It should not ever take 30 minutes for a burger, ESPECIALLY an impossible burger. When my food finally arrived, the sweet potato fries were dry, blend and overcooked. Service was friendly if not exactly focused.

First time visit... not crowded, great service, manly burger with bacon lardons was outstanding and the sweet potatoes fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. My friend had the chicken lollipops, which are a fun way to eat wings.

So good, love the truffle fries.
