Hey y'all -
Got to try M Burger on opening day. And I'm happy to report that In N Out has come to Chicago. Well, not really, but there are similarities. The burger really reminded me of In N Out in that it's kinda small, comes in the little baggy with the burger sticking out has a nice soft plain bun (which is made in house and outstanding) and thinner patties. The fries are also partly skin on, similar to In N Out. They also have a secret menu, which not sure how secret it is if everyone knows and it's been published in all the write ups.
The burgers are cheap. Around $2.50 for a single, $4.30 for a double. They have an 'M burger' which comes with bacon and signature or secret sauce. I got a double 'M' and it was damn good. Although couldn't taste the sauce much, not sure if that's a good or bad thing, everything else was really fresh and tasty. The fries were starchy and good, very similar to In N Out as I mentioned. We got an extra bonus as they accidentally threw in a double cheese burger which me and a coworker split later. It was good even reheated in the toaster oven. Regular burgers come with L, T, O, P and catsup. They're kinda like a 30s style burger with lettuce on them. I recommend trying it out.
We sent our runner out to grab lunch for the office. He got there right at 11:30 and said 2 minutes later the line was down the block. The space is really small I guess, a counter and some high chairs. Probably would go off lunch/dinner hours if you want to give it a try.
Sorry for the un-descriptive post. Just wanted to get something down, super slammed here at the office. Maybe we should change the thread name? Thanks. Enjoy.
