The Bad Apple Burger review by Sean
What an awesome experience! After Ravenswood Tap Day on Sunday, this burger absolutely hit the spot—it was juicy, flavorful, and exactly what I needed. The atmosphere was fantastic, especially sitting at the bar and watching the World Cup Final with everyone. The energy in the place made the whole meal even better. The service was outstanding, too. The bartender was friendly, attentive, incredibly talented behind the bar, and, let's be honest, ridiculously handsome! He made great drinks, kept everyone smiling, and added to the fun vibe without missing a beat. Great food, great drinks, great service, and an unforgettable atmosphere. I can't wait to come back!
The Bad Apple Burger review by Kassandra
Amazing burger! Love that they have gluten free options and the servers are more than happy to answer any questions re: food allergens. It's always a great time. Thank you!

Smoked Salmon Salad review by Streetsideone
Terrific service! Food was great , burger cooked and seasoned well, and the smoked salmon salad was jusst amazing! I was so impressed with the atmosphere; brick wall, fun wall art and great lighting and wow so very clean! I will certainly be going again
East Meets West review by Shelly
I will admit- even with the previous review- I was skeptical. But I am SO GLAD I finally ordered this. It was 100% the most delicious thing I've ordered at Bad Apple (and I've been here a lot.) Thing us- the burgers are SO good that I always ended up getting one of those ''cuz they're also delicious. But East Meets West was EXCEPTIONAL with just a little kick of spicy and the brisket to sprout and cheese ratio was perfect on the thick toast. It wasn't super hard to manage/consume. I had 1/4 of the sandwich left over which I re-grilled the next day AND IT WAS STILL DELICIOUS!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Elvis's Last Supper review by Maria
Elvis would've risen up from the dead just to taste this! Sweet and savory, peanut butter meets pepper jam with the juiciest patty ever! Topped with fried bananas, this burger you will crave for the rest of your life!
Parisian Patty Melt review by Michelle
A patty melt reimagined - with ALL the bells and whistles — that make it decadent and unforgettable. Take a classic patty melt - but sub garlic bread AND top with cheese. Enjoy your beef patty, carefully cooked to taste, and paired with French onion soup which doubles as Au Jus, the signature onion complement of the beloved patty melt. Keep it simple with fries and a side of house made ketchup…or add some sweet to balance your savory, by adding curry seasoning on your French Fries.
That's A Wrap review by Kyle
One of the best wraps in the city! Super good and fresh -- we will be back!
Wagyu Smash Burger review by Pfeiffer,
The Wagyu smash burger is my absolute favorite burger in the city! The burger is perfectly cooked and has all the right condiments to make it POP. Best burger in the 312.
