Like the Chipotle of burgers , it's quick, easy, and quite tasty! Their turkey burger and sweet potato fries were absolutely delicious. A bit expensive for burgers , but worth the occasional splurge.

Time Out Chicago

Burgers are cooked to a nice medium. Opt for aged cheddar , bacon and egg toppings, and be sure to add the rustic , skin-on fries . Try the Lemon Squeeze, a blend of fro-yo, strawberries and lemonade . Read more

I have never had a burger this good in my entire lifetime of thirty years. Classic turkey . His name was chet. Home grown and fed right until plump enough to become my meal. Thanks epic.

Truly epic! Amazing, delicious, juicy burger and possibly the best fries I've had in a long time!

This Epic Burger location was one of the 1st in the city servicing the loop college crowd , but it needs a refresh / remodeling.

Rick Webb

Chicago-based burger chain focusing on natural ingredients . Solid, shake-shack style burgers . Would love to see this chain expand beyond downtown chicago. A treat each time we visit.

The small-rancher-procured patties are hormone/antibiotic free, never-frozen, cooked-to-order 100% chuck, and topped with like cage-free organic fried eggs , nitrate-free bacon , Wisconsin cheeses . Read more

Mushroom Portobello burger is delicious! Good option if you're vegetarian...not sure if it's the best vegan option .

Maryam

I LOVE EPIC BURGER. I always get the junior turkey burger w/cheddar. So good. And the smoothies are fro-yo + skim milk based. The milk and honey one's amazing, and the PB one too!

Time Out Chicago

Chain doesn’t signify commoditized mass culture when the business in question uses cage-free eggs , slices its own fries and serves crispy patties of humanely raised, hormone- and antibiotic-free meats Read more

I just wanted to add that you can have your egg over-easy or fried. My previous comment about eggs being too done seems to be applicable here and the Rush Street location.

Abdul Karim Syed

This place rocks! Epic is the word! More so because it's 100% Halal! Rock on!

Linda Felter

I'm not sure if there's anything bad... Everything my friends and I ate was amazing!

Time Out Chicago

Slathered on a bun with scrambled eggs , cheddar cheese and thick slices of bacon , the sauce takes what would be a serviceable breakfast sandwich and turns it into a decadent morning essential. Read more

Time Out Chicago Kids

Juicy, crispy-edged patties (available in junior size) and crisp, skin-on fries are reason enough to head to any of Epic's outposts.

Tomas Fuk

Probably the best fries I have ever tasted

I complained about the nudity in the TV set and the blood and violence. Manager told me there were no kids and that nipples showing on a woman during intercourse was acceptable. #so-upset

Kristina Neato

There was nothing epic about my burger at this location! Once the bun top was taken off of my sons burger meat was coming apart (crumbles) for the price you pay I expect "Epic" and tasteful!

Linda Hall
