50 Best Burger Restaurants near Berkeley

“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.“

“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.“

“🔥 Highly Recommended! Flame On Peri Peri is hands down one of the best spots for flavorful, juicy peri peri chicken! 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!“

“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!!!“

“A rocking little joint with a music-first vibe. Try them for Last Tuesday Harmonica Meetup night. Maybe you'll win the raffle!“

“Their chicken Philly needs a lot of work. They overwhelmed it with onions and cheese but not enough meat. Ratio needs correction. Also the fries were undercooked and extremely soggy. Their menu is on the pricier side. As for their service and atmosphere, it was overall solid. I will be back here.“

“The Best! The best fries, the best steak sandwich, the best hamburgers, the best everything!“

“Had a burger and it was just ok. It comes open face and I couldn’t get the bread unstuck to make it a sandwich. Asked for blue cheese olives in my Bloody Mary and I got one. Really?!? Couldn’t get refills on my water. The waitress disappeared till it was check time and then she came over. It was very busy though.“

Everything was delicious, hot, and fresh. Recommend if you're looking for awesome food at a great price too.“

“Food is fantastic with great portions. Get you some good food here.“

“This used to be our absolute favorite spot. My friends and I would come here several times a week, and we loved the familiar faces on the staff. Sadly, things have drastically changed for the worse. ​We noticed the staff began turning over constantly, and after speaking with some of the remaining employees, we found out why: the owner is reportedly keeping 40% of the servers' tips. Under Illinois law, tips belong entirely to the staff, and an owner taking a cut is entirely illegal. ​It breaks our heart to walk away from a place we loved, but our group has decided to take our business to other local spots that actually respect and support their employees. We won't be back until management corrects this and treats their staff fairly.“

“Feels like your own grandma's diner. Food is delicious-hot and fresh and great portions. Food was quick even on a busy Sunday brunch period. Everyone from the hostess to the cleaning team is extremely friendly and helpful. Great family environment for breakfast/lunch. Have had great experience on multiple visits. My kids love it as well.“

“Johnny and Jessica at Smashburger were absolutely amazing! From the moment we walked in, they were friendly, welcoming, and provided outstanding customer service.

Johnny made excellent recommendations, and everything he suggested was spot on. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy, Johnny and Jessica kept everything running smoothly with positive attitudes and genuine smiles. They were clearly working hard and holding the place down, yet they still took the time to make every customer feel valued.

Their personalities, professionalism, and dedication truly stood out. Great food is important, but great people make the experience memorable and Johnny and Jessica did exactly that. Thank you both for the wonderful service!“

“Am recommending shan a han's food and spirit to everyone in the world amazing platform!“

“Get the burger. Never had a bad one.“

She carefully repeated our orders to ensure everything was correct, checked on us at just the right times, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our visit. Her positive attitude, cheerful spirit, and confidence created a wonderful dining experience. It’s clear that she takes pride in her work and truly cares about her guests. Thank you, Veronica, for your outstanding service we will definitely be back! Good was absolutely fantastic!👌🏽“

“They have a great staff and the food is terrific. They have a menu that has something for everyone . They are health conscious with their offerings; I’m a diabetic so I eat a lot of salads,and chilli. You can see that if you’re not satisfied with your order or service they will fix it and pronto . I can’t say enough about my neighborhood bar and grill! Good food, atmosphere,and the people are friendly and make you feel like coming back.🏈🐻 Great place to watch sports and cheer DaBears.“
