The Burger Point
1900 S. State Street
Website: http://www.theburgerpoint.com/
At The Burger Point, we are committed to providing customers with all natural, hormone, antibiotic, and preservative free meats.
We are proud to have partnered with the Rain Crow Ranch to provide our customers a burger experience that is unlike any other. We are passionate about our food and the way it is prepared, from the cattle ranch, to our kitchen, to your plate, we are committed to freshness and continue to be an advocate for the ethical treatment of animals and the environment. Right now, there is a very limited number of American farms that are certified 100% grass fed beef. We are proud to be one of the few restaurants in Chicago that can honestly make this claim and back it up. All of our burgers (beef, chicken, and turkey) are ground fresh in house which guarantees quality and consistency all the time.
Our food is cooked to order, nothing is ever frozen, and almost everything is made from scratch. For this reason it takes a little longer than you may be used to, but you will taste the difference that is well worth the extra few minutes!

The 10th Annual Spring Benefit promises to be a wickedly good time! It's a dressy evening event full of fun, dancing, libations and plentiful food at a newly-redecorated ballroom in the elegant Hyatt Regency McCormick Place. Our emcees will be Andrea Darlas from WGN Radio and Rick Pearson from the Chicago Tribune! We hope you will join your fellow South Loop Parents, Teachers, Administration and neighbors as we celebrate 10 years of the "brain, heart, and courage" which has become South Loop School.
Planning to come, but need childcare? Bring your munchkins to the school so they can play with their friends! Spots are limited and we don't like turning families away, so don't wait until you see the tornado on the horizon before making this important reservation.
Each year, the Spring Benefit supports annual fundraising efforts of Friends & Family of South Loop School (our nonprofit organization). This year's overall goal is to raise $100K towards expanded technology for our Early Childhood Center, and Spanish instruction for all of our students. Please use the Donation, Advertising, and Sponsorship forms to start a conversation with local businesses about helping us reach this ambitious goal. There are many ways to get involved - contact us at 2013.emerald.city@gmail.com.
