It took me a minute to hop over to Bust Outs (home of the former Mother Clucker’s restaurant), but when a new burger joint pops up with a giant inflatable cowboy standing over the restaurant, I have got to go check that out. I placed a to-go order for Sweet Potato fries and their The Loop Burger. It was their burger that seemed like it had the most going on, so I went for it (both are pictured.)

The owners, Christina and Angelo, are the nicest. I was observing how they interacted with their customers, and they were just so genuinely kind. He shared how much quality of food and cleanliness were super important to them. They didn’t disappoint in any of those areas at all. The Chicago “L” cheeseburger was so darn juicy and delicious! Best I have had in this area by far. Those garlic cheese curds were so tasty! So so so pleased. Thanks for opening up and your absolute kindness.

Wow. This place was amazing. I had just put it on my list of places to check out a couple days ago and we happened to be driving today. Amazing taste on the green line chicken sandwich and the grilled chicken sandwich. Good portion on waffle fries. Angelo, Christina and his team are awesome. Can’t wait to go back and taste the fried green tomatoes among the many other offerings available

I stopped in to try Bust Outs due to seeing it on my Instagram feed, and it is on my route home.

Probably the best damn cheeseburger in town. Make sure to try their cheese curds – employees says it’s addictive like heroin. Also try their fried green tomatoes. Service was fast and friendly. Ten out of ten would recommend to anyone.

The Hot Dog was amazing. The brioche buns were really good. The garlic cheese curds were godly. I will definitely come back.

Nothing screams Chicago like Bust Outs. From Chicago classics like Italian beef & hot dogs to their L themed burgers, Bust Outs is a must try.

Very impressed! We tried the Green line grilled chicken, and the Red line burger. Both were so delicious!! The salad was excellent too, good portion. Excited to try more of their menu items. And it’s a friendly, calm, upbeat atmosphere. So happy we tried this new place, we’ll definitely be back!!

I could not be happier with this spot. The staff is unbelievably friendly welcoming and the food is delicious. I’ve had quite a few of the burgers they offer as well as the sides and I could not be more complimentary. Looking forward to sampling the beef and other sandwiches they offer.

I thought this food was very good but a bit pricy for what was given. One minor detail on my order that was wrong but regardless the beef and sausage combo I ordered was delicious. The service was great, the owner was very friendly to his staff and fellow customers like myself. I could see myself coming back here again very soon.
