food was horrible from what pictures look like we ordered. garlic parmesan fries cleary just threw it on top off the fries and so cold. tenders were horrible the breading separated from the chicken and wasn’t tasty at all. ranch was also super bad tasted expire only good thing from here was their burger and customer service don’t recommend for how pricy it is

Food was delicious!! It’s hard to come by gluten free fried foods, like a chicken sandwich, and fried pickles. This place had it all! So many options to choose from. All the staff were so nice, and the food was made quickly. Highly recommend! I will be returning on my next trip to Chicago.

Gluten free friendly. The fryer is gluten free but they use soybean oil.
[Adding this part after owner replied. The staff was great and more than willing to help out. They were accommodating and supportive. Edwardo and Mackenzie are top notch employees just like the others. No hard feelings with them. ]
The food is expensive and plain. I know grassfed is good and not as cheap as conventional meat but this is through the roof. The fries are $5+ per portion which is crazy expensive. They are cooked fine but just not worth the price.
The quality is okay. Nothing special. The service is great. Friendly and considerate. However, they did not know some basic things about the food- like what they use on the grill and the ingredients to make it gluten free.

Really unique and enjoyable restaurant with many fantastic options and choices. They have many unique protein options to include grass fed beef, bison, salmon, grouper, and other wild game.
They have the ability to accommodate many allergies; specifically Gluten Allergies with the majority of the menu being Gluten-Free. The kitchen is very knowledgeable of food allergies and cross contamination concerns.
Fantastic establishment with amazing staff that take pride in their offerings.

Another “not my first time here, but first Google Review” for this place! Been coming here on and off since they opened years ago. Recently ordered take-out and their burgers are still excellent at almost the same price when they started. Their garlic/seasoned fries (not pictured here) are another good option, but as of late, they were a bit overly fried, also a bit stale – Not worth the $6.99 price. Until next time!

I get over here as often as I can or as often as I’m in the area. Love their build a burger options. Completely customizable burgers. Bison being on the menu is sick as well. Highly recommend.

One of the best burgers I’ve ever had! I ate it so fast and wasn’t able to get a photo. I had the Year of the Goat and my husband had the Philly burger – both good! We also had the onion petals, sweet potato fries, and a kids mac and cheese for my baby (they did have a high chair) Came on a Friday for dinner and it was pretty empty. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The music in the place was ON POINT – I was happily eating and dancing at the same time. Go support this place!! Well worth it!!!

American Wild Burger serves up a solid selection of burgers that hit the spot when you’re craving something quick and satisfying. The patties are juicy and flavorful, and there’s a nice variety of toppings and sauces to customize your order. The fries and sides are decent — nothing extraordinary, but they get the job done. Portion sizes are generous, and the prices are fair for what you get.
The restaurant itself has a casual, no-frills atmosphere that works for a quick meal or takeout. Service can be hit or miss depending on the time of day — sometimes friendly and efficient, other times a bit rushed or distracted. The place can get busy, which occasionally leads to longer waits or slightly inconsistent food quality.
Overall, American Wild Burger is a decent option for a casual bite, especially if you’re nearby and craving a hearty burger. It’s not the most memorable or gourmet experience, but it delivers reliable comfort food with decent value. A few tweaks to consistency and service would easily push it into four-star territory.

We were the only ones here so I can’t speak to when/if they get busy.
Had to try their special, “holiday fries”. They were enjoyable but nothing to get too excited about.
Kids loved the burgers and fries (daughter said her burger was a 5/5)
Burgers were big, juicy and tasty but should be because of the price.
Also, because I needed to know I tried a taco and a Chicago style hot dog.
Again good but nothing extra special.
Would go again but wouldn’t order the holiday fries again.
