WARLORD

“The reviews I read about Warlord were accurate. The burger was phenomenally juicy cooked to a medium doneness level. The non-alcoholic cocktail was also good. Our server, Samia, did a good job explaining the menu options. I have 2 minor gripes. I wish the music volume was a bit lower but I liked their picks. I wish there was more parking in the area.”

“The grilled oysters were so good ! And they had the freshest trout and prawns from Patagonia which melted in my mouth. Special mentions to the burger , it was hands down the best burger I’ve had in Chicago, and worth every penny! I’d be here to celebrate every occasion given the amazing waiting staff and cocktails! Hands down the place to experience in Chicago! Thanks guys for this wonderful experience :D”

“Absolutely amazing! We booked their tasting menu with alcohol pairing to celebrate my fiancée’s birthday. From start to finish this place takes you to another level of dining. Staff and service were professional and welcoming. Carson did a fantastic job helping us throughout the entire experience. The atmosphere and set up matched the live fire / open kitchen concept. Food creations were surprising and delicious, paired with unique cocktails and other beverages. All well balanced and presented to us in an artistic way. We were surprised by the fact that this place doesn’t currently hold a Michelin star. Compared to other restaurants with Michelin stars we’ve dined before, Warlord definitely deserves at least one. We highly recommend them for fine dining and special occasions!”

“Went on a 1h 20min power walk from Jefferson Park and ended up at Warlord for a spontaneous dinner. Sat right in front of the live fire grill, which felt like sitting in a medieval tavern but with loud rock music and contemporary fare. A bizarre combination, but it works really well. I was last here in 2023, and I’m glad they are now Michelin-listed. I had the Raw Bigeye Tuna and Melted Eggplant, paired with a sparkling German Sekt and a Vinho Verde from Portugal.”

“Good food, music insanely loud, service below average. We went on a Friday night, table for 4, with reservation, and they made us wait for 20 minutes to get the table, with no apology (it can happen but at least some apology is expected). Then we ordered some beers and one appetizer (Delice de bourgogne) which was good. We then waited over 30 minutes for our burgers, which was way too long, considering it was not even that busy at 8:30pm (no apology again). Despite that, the burgers were excellent, really good. We had 3 fries too, which were nice but one was incredibly salty, we couldn’t even eat it. The atmosphere is really cool as the music mix but we sat towards the end of the place and the music was super loud, couldnt hear the waitress. Overall, you have to try it once but it’s a good place to recommend in my opinion.”
