Chicago Restaurant Series 🍽️｜Small Cheval

Chicago food crawl continues~~ Today introducing a burger chain in Chicago — Small Cheval 🍔 These burger joints are all over Chicago — from Loop to West Loop, Wicker Park, Lincoln Park, even all the way up to the north suburbs 🌆 This time I visited the one near my place in Wicker Park, close to Bucktown 🚶 Went on a summer evening — perfect vibes, and we got to sit outside! ✨ The decor inside gives off American retro diner vibes — if you've ever watched a Hollywood road trip movie 🛣️, you know that classic roadside diner aesthetic? Yeah, that feeling hits immediately 🎬🍿 Food-wise, I'd say everything is pretty solid 👍 The burgers fall into the smash burger category — which I personally LOVE, so it was totally my vibe 🤤 Fries are like McDonald's but thicker, heartier cuts 🍟 What I'd actually recommend most is the dipping sauce for the fries — it's seriously addictive, finger-licking good kinda stuff 🤌👆 💰 Price-wise... well, it's downtown Chicago, so I won't drag it too much 🥲 It's subjective — honestly, for this price point, if I'm placing a final order... I'd rather go to Five Guys and feast 😂 (no offense 🙊) But overall — if you're craving something new, stop by a nearby location 👌 No need to make a special trip just for it, but since it's a hometown Chicago burger joint, it's still worth a recommend 🫡 #ChicagoFoodie #SmallCheval #BurgerLovers #SmashBurger #ChicagoEats
