It was good, but not all it was hyped up to be as far as the reviews were. Maybe the reviews set my expectations too high? A bit pricey

I remember how small they started back in 2013 and love how they expanded their restaurant. Amazing taste and one of the best burger joints in the area!!!

An absolute gem in Rosemont Illinois! 🇺🇸🍔 Every time we travel out of town, we make it a mission to find local, family-owned spots. American WildBurger did not disappoint! Ryan, the owner, has created something truly special at this Rosemont location. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and friendly team members who clearly take pride in what they do. The food….Outstanding. Everything is made fresh to order, and you can taste the difference. Juicy burgers, crisp toppings, perfect fries. The kind of meal that hits the spot in every way. Couldn’t leave without snapping a pic in front of the awesome mural on the side of the building. Such a cool touch that shows the personality and pride behind the place. Whether you’re just passing through or live in the area, this spot is a must-visit. Support local, eat fresh, and treat yourself to one of the best burgers in town! #AmericanWildBurger #BurgerGoals #SupportLocal #FamilyOwned #MadeToOrder #TeamRockinVisits 🇺🇸🍟🍔

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.

Good, quick spot with lots of options for burger fixins... and fries. We went for the vegetarian options (Impossible burger / Impossible brat) and our burgers were great. Good fries - lots of options - including sweet potato.

Gluten free food is delicious and safe! Many different options to choose from. Cajun fries are a family favorite of ours. Customer service is above and beyond- after a delivery driver never brought the order Ryan personally delivered our order to the children’s hospital where we were staying with a sick kiddo. He really went the extra mile to help us out during a difficult time. Can’t thank him enough!! Fans forever!! Thank you!!

Everything I've had from here so far has been awesome! Grass fed beef burger, gf fried chicken sandwich, fries, and fried mushrooms were solid. They accommodate dietary restrictions and all the fried items are gluten free. It's a small family owned business and they're always friendly and have great service when I do dine in.

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.
