It's umami. Au cheval is overrated with the pretentious staff.
- monksy 8y agoI'm not a fan of Small Chauval (too expensive for what you get), and I'm not going to wait 2-3hrs for a burger.
- tptacek 8y agoHonestly I'm not sure I'm sold on any destination burger. Google Kenji Alt's ultra-smash burger, and just make them at home. I'm unhappy about Au Cheval because the rest of the menu is relevant to my interests, but I can't eat there because it's a destination burger restaurant now. But, back to the point of this article: my problems != Hogsalt Restaurants problems!
- 121789 8y agoOh please, the Au Cheval wait has been ridiculous for at least 5 years now. If you have friends and you drink, it’s very easy to plan to hang at one of the bars that’re close by for a couple of hours.
- monksy 8y agoI'm pretty sure that's the only reason that the Lonewolf exists. I've never heard of a time where you can get into Au Chavel without a wait for the time that I've lived here. (About 5+ish years)
- tptacek 8y agoIf you're going to Au Cheval during the middle of the day, Lonewolf isn't an option. If you're going at peak hours, Lonewolf is likely to be as packeed as anywhere else. I like Lonewolf as much as anyone else does, but if I'm going to make a multi-hour project out of going to a restaurant, it's not going to be Au Cheval.
- 121789 8y agoLone wolf is great, but sometimes haymarket has more space. If you go right when it opens at night, you can usually get in pretty quick (I’ve been seated in 15 minutes)
- paulie_a 8y agoI have gone there when the place was half empty and told there would be a 20 minute wait, which turned into 40. The hostess told me I needed to download an app to check in for a table. I can go further but I am surprised that place is actually still in business, it has terrible customer service and mediocre over salted food.
