Small Cheval

I held my delicious burger over the balcony, as one would do with a blizzard from Dairy Queen and the burger stayed intact! kudos to you Small Cheval! keep on showing Wrigleyville what you're made of!

I was visiting Chicago and we wanted to grab some drinks and a bite to eat before a comedy show later that night, so we decided to check out Small Cheval since Au Cheval was likely super busy.We arrived at the area foolishly believing we could snag street parking, but after circling for about half an hour, we decided to park at a lot across the street from Wrigley. It was my first time in the area, and the neighborhood seemed very lively, filled with young people hanging out on a Friday night.We walked over to Small Cheval and were happy to grab an empty table. QR code menus, attentive service, and good company overall. We each ordered a burger (I ordered the Wagyu truffle burger, everyone else ordered the signature), truffle fries for the table, and some aioli sauce, Casamigos tequila, and chocolate milkshakes lol.Thoughts? The truffle burger was good! However, for the price, and trying out the signature burger (which was half the price), I would stick with the signature. Same with the truffle sauce with the fries...nothing beats the original aioli sauce. The chocolate shake was pretty thick, and difficult to sip, but still delicious.We received A+ service. Someone dropped their last bottle of Casamigos in the back, so our server upgraded the tequila brand on the house for us for our second round of shots. So nice of them.The only thing I wish we did differently was check out the rooftop. One of the girls in our group was cold, so we decided to stay indoors. Next time though!

Words can't describe how badly I crave a Small Cheval burger every day. Possibly my favorite meal in Chicago, this spot has perfected the craft of the burger. I came back twice in my one week visit to Chicago. The burger is so deliciously cheesy, the patty so moist and perfectly seasoned. Buns were soft and stayed dry despite the delicious sauces and cheese sandwiched inside. Fries are skippable at this location as they're a bit thicker than at the Riverside location, although I would recommend asking for the garlic aioli to dip your burger in.

Our burgers and fries were so tasty! The garlic aioli was great for dipping. We came on an off day for the Cubs, so we had excellent service and a nice, quiet table (room) to ourselves.

Seat yourself restaurant. The servers were amiable, but the food did take a while to come out. They have two floors, the first has more of a diner feel and the second is much calmer with booths as seating options. It is a nice place for a less fancy and customizable meal. The fried chicken sandwich was very well seasoned & crispy. The fries were also cooked well & had a good taste. A good dinner option if you are nearby exploring Wrigleyville. And then I recommend you get dessert at Jeni's ice cream next door after.

Great little location. Convenient if you already have parking in the area or don't need parking. We were in the neighborhood mid day on a weekday so we did not have to wait for seating. We opened to sit at the bar and it was a good experience. Burgers are great, as are fries. One order was enough for two of us to share. Food seems to be made fresh with quality ingredients. The prices were fair and not unexpected. Lots of beer and seltzer options. Service was friendly and prompt. Worth checking out.

Strongly recommend the patio upstairs during summer time. Well known for their burgers. We also had a pitcher of beer. Friendly service.

My son and I met here for lunch and we were not disappointed. This might have been the best cheeseburger I have ever eaten.

I've been wanting to try Small Cheval for a long time now. I would say Au Cheval has the best burgers in the city, and was hoping Small Cheval would be similar but it's not even close. This location is conveniently located outside Wrigley, but I made the mistake of trying to eat here before a Sox vs Cubs game. There was a long line with a 20 minute wait just to sit down. We ended up skipping the line and just did takeout, but it was still a 20 minute wait until takeout orders were ready. Despite the wait, the staff still had smiles and were really friendly while we waited for our food. They even offered us a glass of water. The burger was delicious, I'll give them that. I ordered their double cheeseburger. It came with plenty of cheese but ir sucks to have "Cheval" in your name because it's always going to be compared to its bigger brother. The burger was still hot by the time we ate it inside Wrigley and also ordered fries with their garlic aioli. The fries are thin but still tasted good with the sauce. I can definitely see myself returning but only on the Cubs away games or their off days.

I've heard a lot of good things about Small Cheval and now that they opened one in Wrigley, I had to try it. This location has a super cute second floor with a patio, but of course it was fully rented out for an event when we went. This place has a good veggie burger, but I wouldn't come back here. The single patty burger is $9 and the veggie burger is $14. $5 more for a veggie patty??? That's insane! That doesn't even include cheese either so the burger ended up being $15, so $6 more. And it was good but I promise it was not that good!
