Reviews
I've walked by this place coming into work for almost 6 months and always thought about trying it. Holy hell, I've been missing out! Cheeseburger and fries $20 plus tip and yes, you need to tip because they are working hard for us. Cheeseburger was amazing and almost too much food for this 6'5" guy. The fries were ok but next time I'll know the burger is more than enough. Extremely fast and friendly service, gets crazy busy during lunch but worth a bit of a wait for food made to order. Check them out!
My family loves the Fat Shallot
(both the Evanston and Gillson Beach locations)! The food is delicious, the service always has a smile and the margs and ice cream at the beach make me think I'm on vacation. It is one of the gems of the North Shore community.

Fattest cheeseburger ever. Going into a food coma after this. Wont be able to work anymore. If u want a fat burger come here
20 minutes to get a grilled cheese sandwich that's barely grilled and soggy no thank you
Food was fine but ordering here is no joke, so have it together when you order lol. I tried ordering the Buffalo chicken sandwich and left with just tenders because I wasn't too clear (I guess). Definitely not the lightest of lunch options, but a good Mart option! Ps be prepared - you'll get enough fries to feed a village
Woman working the counter with the Prince and Kobe tattoos was either having a bad day or needs to be given a break. She exuded stress and a IDGAF attitude. Not the best initial impression of an establishment.
The food was very good and worth the lengthy wait at peak lunch time, which is why this is still a four star review despite the service.
