While visiting the windy city of Chicago we met a friend for lunch at a burger joint not to far from our theater. We ate at a place called Epic Burger. The food is fresh and the burgers are made to order. No heat lamps here.
I got myself a burger with no bun and although they don't actually do a lettuce wrap here they do present it to you in a pretty way with lots of tomatoes and lettuce. Its not just sitting on some paper so you feel stupid. Food presentation is a big deal to me. If a place doesn't want thier food to look good when they deliver it then they don't care much about their food. I have been to many fast food places where the burger shows up in a plastic bowl with nothing else. Just a patty and maybe some cheese. Hard to fill your belly full with that. So Epic Burger won points for presentation.
The burger itself was a little forgettable though. It's not really anything special here. To be honest I am writing this review a day or two after we went and I cant even remember much about it. Its probably close to that of a Five Guys Burger only I didn't think it was quiet as good. It was just lacking a bit is juiciness. Still, they understood how to delver a low carb burger so that was nice.
Would I go back, probably not, again not because it was bad, but it just wasn't good enough.
