my friend mike sheerin was one of the main chefs at blackbird. he opened a trendy place north of the city called the trencherman, and just opened a gig in the west loop called embeya (which is "progressive Asian" (like buggy)).
unless you're into prostitutes, do not go to Gibson's -- it's an overrated chain.
I didn't know it was a chain. I've seen it in The League.
it's not a huge chain, but i think they have like 3 or 4 locations. every time i've eaten there, i've had an overpriced, usually over cooked, steak (plus, i don't like where they source their steaks from). the one downtown is in what's called "the viagra triangle." lots of suits looking for "high-end" hookers.
i always laughed when they showed it on The League.
I will skip this now.

tried once but it was the usual two hour wait and the place had that stale bar smell. i've heard maude's down the street is the same people and the burger's just as good.

yeah, the fact that they don't take reservations is a deal breaker for me (when i had it, we lucked out and waited only 25 minutes)

What about Kuma's? I read that's one of the best burgers in america.

it's gotten a lot of overhype in the past 5 years or so, and it's probably impossible to match that hype. kuma's is good to be sure. but it's pretty far northwest of the city, and the wait can be atrocious as well.

i've only been once, but i consider it overrated. the burger patty itself was nothing special imo, i think it's all about the toppings.

they opened kuma's too on diversey in lakeview a couple years ago. it's right by my house, never noticed much of a wait.
