Sid Menon
Burger was really unique and memorable. Definitely one of the better burgers I’ve had in Chicago. Pimento cheese eclair was unlike anything I’ve ever tried before and took me by surprise, will definitely order again! Unfortunately, the Benton’s Bacon was practically inedible. I love bacon but this was so mustard heavy and smoky I really struggled with every bite. First time in a while i couldn’t finish all my food because it was bad. I came here for brunch and it didn’t really fit the vibe, so dark and dimly lit you forget it’s the middle of the day. Probably a much better option at night.

Yooo the OG burger is definitely a contender for the top 10 burgers in the city. But idk if it cracked the top 5 thou for me. Solid burger, it’s good but great, ima pump the breaks on it I give it an 8.5. It’s solid frfr. Got it with a chocolate chip cookie for dessert maybe im bent but damn it this cookie is phenomenal 9.6. It’s come out fresh and mad flavorful and hit the spot. Overall, the spot is cool I Iike the drinks and customer service. 8.8.

Came to prove if this burger was actually better than Au Cheval. It isn’t. I would rate it 8/10 , it’s good but not THAT good. The bun was not my favorite and definitely missing bacon. Get the OG one, not he classic. I don’t regret it, but next time I’m ordering other plates that seemed very tasty like the beef tartar.

Loyalist is known for its OG burger and it is really fantastic. Simple and flavorful, and amazingly perfect cook on it. Definitely one of the top burgers I’ve had in Chicago [.. and this comes after trying several top rated burger spots in Chicago].

One of my favorite top 3 burger spot in chicago. Their Burger had an unique flavor which you won’t find else where. Only down side was there fries were like the same as McDonald’s, was disappointed because I spent almost $30 and expected equal value of food. Burger was pricey but definitely worth it.

Burgers are my absolute favorite food of all time, so after hearing that The Loyalist had the best burgers in Chicago, I had to go. It didn’t disappoint. This is by far the absolute best burger I have ever eaten in my life. Such unique flavor. Not too heavy. Not too light. Not only was the burger amazing, but the drinks and appetizers were delicious as well. The ambiance is charming, perfect for any occasion. On top of that, the service was outstanding. Arturo was genuine and quick. While the restaurant was busy, he took the time to chat with us and that made it even better. Already made another reservation to celebrate my birthday.

Excellent casual restaurant located below Smyth. Though a bit dark and can get loud, the food was spectacular and left us already planning our next date back. Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful in figuring out our dishes.

Amazing spot in the west loop. The ambiance is great and service is fantastic. Good cocktail menu. We got the loyalist burger and it was honestly one of the best burgers I have ever had. At the end they gave us a shot and a beer for ordering the burger, not high end stuff but still cool. Would definitely go back to try the classic burger.
