About

There are a few key things to keep in mind when you’re deciding whether to go to Au Cheval, the NYC location of a pretty famous restaurant in Chicago. One, you’re going to wait a long time for a table. Two, you’ll probably be eating burgers and fries. And three, no matter what you order, you’ll leave wanting to sweat it all out and simultaneously be as inactive as possible. But as long as you know what you’re in for, this is an excellent place to eat too much meat and drink too much whiskey, without spending too much money.
Ask someone from Chicago the best things about their city, and after pointing out the street where the parade took place in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and then repeating Michael Jordan six times, they’ll probably bring up the burger at Au Cheval. So New Yorkers are understandably excited that they can experience a version of it by taking the Q train to Canal rather than a Spirit flight to O’Hare. In theory, you can make a reservation at this Tribeca spot, but most of the seating is reserved for walk-ins, and there are almost always waits. Even at lunch, the huge, converted warehouse space often gets packed, and people linger by the coffee bar in the corner, waiting for a text saying their table is ready. At dinner, when the waits can be upwards of three hours, people kill time drinking at the bar downstairs, checking for texts like middle schoolers waiting for their crush to respond about mini golf versus laser tag.
