Chicago Foodie's 'The Bear' Pilgrimage: A Mr. Beef Review Chicago, IL – May 30, 2025 – A recent TikTok video showcases a pop culture enthusiast's journey to Mr. Beef, a Chicago institution famously depicted in the hit FX show, "The Bear."

"I went all the way to Chicago just to go to the restaurant from the show," Justin shared in his video. He detailed his experience, emphasizing the sandwich's "wet and juicy" texture and flavorful taste. While he enjoyed the sandwich, he noted the fries were "crunchy but very oily."
