The Loyalist

The burger reviews do not lie!! Coming from Melbourne and being a bit of a foodie, I was keen to check out what all the rave was about.. eating the loyalist burger was no disappointment and up there with the best burgers I ever had. The meat (chuck, short rib and bacon) was served medium rare and was very juicy.. the onions go well with the very soft sesame bun. We ate at the bar and enjoyed the good atmosphere.. make a booking if you keen to go here.. or rock up an hour before the kitchen opens to sit at the bar and enjoy a few drinks.

Great dining experience, especially if you’re looking for something a bit more casual. Wish I remembered our waiter’s name, but he was one of the best we’ve had in this city. Personable, helpful and made our evening that much better.

The menu is easy to navigate and I couldn’t get over the Old Fashioned. It was a delight to drink. There are two burgers on the menu and we split The Loyalist. It’s complex and rich. An awesome burger, but wish the patty was highlighted a bit more.

First and foremost... you want to know about the burgers. THEY live up to the hype! Both have such a wonderful flavor and the patty itself is perfectly cooked. That being said, there isn't an item on the menu that I've tried and didn't love. I would absolutely recommend it. Also the interior design of the place is perfectly lovely. From the antiqued mirrors behind the bar to the chairs. No detail was overlooked.

The Loyalist cheeseburger lived up to the hype. It is one if the best in the city. The special garlic burger was also delicious. It was busy for 10pm on a cold Friday night so we had to be seated at the small bar section and there did look like tables open. The atmosphere and service was good though. I recommend the oysters as well they have bacon fat or something that is so tasty. Highly recommended!

This place is located in a basement but don't let that discourage you its always crowded. The food and drinks both match levels of excellence and the service is great. All the bartenders are genuine and aware. They make eye contact and communicate. This attitude makes a big difference epically in the west loop. I look forward to go back to eat another terrific burger.
