Chicago burger icon Au Cheval has temporarily closed—here's why
It's home to one of the best burgers in all of Chicago, a cheeseburger so good that, yes, we will begrudgingly wait on an hours-long line for it—so why exactly is Au Cheval closed right now? If you've tried to dine at the elevated diner at 800 W Randolph St in recent days, you'll notice that the usual patty-grilling proceedings have been paused But don't fret! According to Brendan Sodikoff, CEO of the restaurant's hospitality group Hogsalt, the shuttering will only be temporary, a result of a planned "refresh" of the restaurant's interiors According to Block Club Chicago, the West Loop flagship of the famous burger joint—which also has a sister location in New York City's Tribeca)—will have some "cosmetic" nips and tucks over the next few weeks, including "painting, fixing tile and upholstery as needed.' As for when the restaurant and its standout burger will return on Chicago's culinary scene, the Au Cheval website presently boasts a banner that reads: "We are temporarily closed for a refresh. We look forward to welcoming you back late May."
