“This McDonald's has become my go-to in the area, and for good reason! While no place is perfect, the very few mistakes I've encountered here over numerous visits have been corrected quickly and with a smile. That's a testament to their truly kind and efficient staff.
Their positive attitude is infectious; it's easy to be kind in return when you're met with such consistently good vibes. It makes the whole experience, whether I'm using the drive-thru or opting for curbside pickup, genuinely pleasant.
The food is reliably good, hitting that classic McDonald's spot every time. Coupled with the great employees, it’s a winning combination that sets this location apart. I can't speak to the interior since I haven't been inside, but the exterior is always kept impressively clean, which I appreciate. If you're looking for a dependable and friendly McDonald's experience, I highly recommend this particular restaurant. They definitely know how to treat their customers right.“

“New management. The fries are now fresh cut instead of crinkled. I ordered a double cheese burger. It was delicious and huge. I actually had to eat it with a knife and fork. You are now advised, chili was good but very SPICY. Tamale is the normal american kind. Very happy with my take out.“

“excellent food and service! great vegetarian and vegan selection as well“

“So glad there was a place with the famous Chicago hot dogs in the airport! I like how you can customize your food; I ended up also adding grilled onions and jalapeños on the hot dog. It tasted delicious!

There’s several kiosks near the front and one near the fountain drinks for convenient ordering, and the food comes out pretty fast. There’s also seating areas inside.“

“I went here to celebrate a birthday and I absolutely loved it. I got the chicken sandwich and my partner got the 8am burger with fries. They give you a mountain of fries. Both sandwiches were big and left me feeling full. The chicken is fried like a fish and I love the breading. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for varieties of burgers and a pretty chill restaurant environment. Parking was easy to find (street parking) and they have some games in the back while you wait for your food which is nice.“

“I had to try it today before going back to FL delicious 😋.“

“5 stars for HECTOR in Western Springs!!! Hands down this was the absolute best dining experience I’ve ever had! While the food was delicious and the overall ambiance and decor of the restaurant was cozy, it was our server that made this dining experience over the top, great! HECTOR, you are a gem, a diamond! You have an absolutely charming personality and made my mother in law’s birthday dinner an experience to remember! From your spot on suggestions, to your lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday”, to the funny banter, our whole family left talking about how wonderful you were! We will be back and we will be sure to come when you are serving! Thank you Hector!!!“

The spice levels are just right, the portions are generous, and the service is fast and friendly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or dining with family, this place never disappoints. Don’t miss the loaded fries and their signature sauces — 10/10!“

“Astonishing that it's still around. I was 10 when it opened in 1948 and to get a double decker at HH was close to heaven. Across the street was Prince Castle, long gone, where you could get a slider for much less money. HH was a splurge and it's wonderful to see it live today.“

But unfortunately with the food itself it was very mid. (See reviews on bottom)

We got 2 sliders each (1 beef and 1 chicken) and the portions were very small compared to what was expected.

Review:
Beef slider 6.2/10
Chicken slider (spicy and juicy) 7.3/10“

“The place is spotless, the burgers are consistently excellent with fresh ingredients, and the fries are always hot and made to order. You can tell the team takes pride in their work, and that starts at the top. The manager here is a 10, she’s warm, professional, and keeps everything running like clockwork.… if you’re reading this, dreamy Latina in the pink top, you know who you are. I don’t know if you’re single, but I think I might be catching feelings. Give me a shot? Por favorsito 🙏“
