Absolute best burger in Chicago?
Rosebud has a great burger, but I am a HUGE fan of the burger at RL, the seasonings are amazing and the atrmosphere is an added bonus.

I just have a hard time with the L20 recommendations. We went a couple of months ago and spent about $800 for 2 people and was entirely unimpressed with the tasting menu. They were still using gels with fish... It was just very old school and the server and sommelier were rather uninvolved in the dining process. they even paired sake with a light fish dish..... overpowered the dish entirely. I'd steer clear.

RL is always a fun lunch on Saturday, not always easy to get a reservation. A bit stuffy, but always packed and a fun lunch menu.
