I want to love this place, but I just like it. I've been there 4 or 5 times, mostly for dinner, and today was my first visit for brunch. Sadly, the brunch didn't impress. The waiter service was ok—runners and busers were very good. The Eggs Benedict were almost raw (very undercooked and the plate presentation was not nice at all. Kitchen service was slow, and one item was forgotten - the waffle (which was good). There are plenty of better brunch spots in the area that are less pricey, so I'm not sure I would return for brunch. As for dinner, I have gone through most of the menu (though I saw a few new items when I checked it today). Some dishes are great, and others are okay, but I want standouts. I hope the menu continues to grow, with more wood-fired options, since that's the unusual draw. I want Burl to succeed; the neighborhood wants and needs you, as great places nearby are hard to come by. I was hoping for another place I could visit weekly or at least monthly, but Burl hasn't reached that point for me yet, or perhaps it doesn't aim to be that kind of place. Is it worth visiting? Yes. But I'm not sure who you are yet....My go-to restaurants are Ema and Sophia Steak; I get what they are going for, and they consistently deliver. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

A bit disappointed with brunch. After they were out of side of sausage patty and out of the smoked turkey sandwich, I got the “breakfast sandwich” which supposedly came with a biscuit? I got a half a sourdough sandwich (looked like something I could have made myself at home), its like they just put together whatever they had left. I must say it was very good but definitely wasn’t what I ordered and the presentation was lacking . Waiter was fine, not really friendly though, but the hostess and rest of the staff were very nice and accommodating with us and our 9 month old. We definitely appreciated that!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, Elizabeth. We’re glad to hear that our hostess and the rest of our staff were so accommodating and made you feel welcome while dining with your family! We are glad you enjoyed what you finally got, but would obviously rather have what you came in for. As our brunch business continues to grow, we are dialing in how much product we need to get in from the farms every week to accommodate our guests. Clearly, we missed the mark this week. We hope that you come back, and we are able to better accommodate you next time. Your feedback helps us show up more thoughtfully for our guests as we continue to refine our service and execution. If you are open to sharing more about your visit, we would truly appreciate hearing from you directly at contact@burlevanston.com so we can look into this further. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you and your family back to provide a seamless experience. Warmly, the Burl Team

Along with friends, I enjoyed brunch at Burl last Sunday. We had reservations for the 5 of us and appreciated that we were seated right away even before our reservation time and before we had all arrived. The service was quite fabulous, and the food was delicious and plentiful. Two of us requested a vegetarian version of our eggs selection which came with bacon and it (surprisingly) had to be ok’d by the chef. And although the restaurant was quite beautiful, I took off a star because it was noisy and difficult to hear each other at our table. Welcome to Evanston, Burl! It was exciting to see brunch offered and I look forward to returning! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
