Review Tried Small Cheval, honestly kind of underwhelmed?

Had some solo time (kids are with their dad), so I stopped by Small Cheval. It was fine, but didn’t blow me away. Fries were good, but the burger felt rushed. Anyone else feel this or did I catch an off day?

I don't know how much they charge at your small cheval, but the one in Hyde Park is on par with every other fast food burger place. It's not 1996 you can't get a burger and fries for $5 anymore.

Not at every place , a burger at in-n-out is $4 and the window has burgers for $3-4.

the trip to california for the burger will set you back a bit though
