Famous for their burgers
This is the original of the famed restaurant group "Lettuce Entertain You." It opened in 1970 and has had its home across from the Lincoln Park zoo ever since. People come from all over the city to Lincoln Park just to see RJ Grunts and it's history.
With fun goofy cartoons, drawings, and signs all over (including the menu!), it was definitely a fun experience. We brought a 4 and 5 year with us and they got hot dogs fries and animal crackers to go along with the zoo being right across the street. They really loved going.
I would say while they are famous for their burgers, they are not the best I've had in the city.
The atmosphere is the greatest part of this fun restaurant! Also, unbelievably so, the salad bar is probably the most impressive. This may sound silly but I challenge you to find another so fresh and diverse! The experience here was truly great!
