50 Best Burger Restaurants near Blue Island

“We went to Harry’s this past Saturday and had a great time. Mary and Ray took care of my wife and I and they were awesome! Made sure we were well taken care of even with the crowd they had. I’d definitely be back for the service and the food! The tacos and wings were delicious!“

“It’s not often or at all that I patronize a White Castle and have something good to say about it or the workers. I hope the mgr cares enough to read the comments. Nate in the drive thru was so pleasant and patient as I was trying to order for my elderly aunt. Thank you Nate for being so kind!!“

“We have been using this location for our school lunches for a few years and appreciate how reliable, clean and organized this restaurant is, especially working with the manager Linda. We recently encounter an issue with a different restaurant where our lunches wouldn't be fulfilled. We were in a major panic. I called Linda immediately and she was able to take our order. We are so appreciative of Linda and her staff!“

“Listen, this was a very great restaurant, I’m shocked that it’s not getting more buzz! You all should come down and try out their rodeo cheeseballs which are packed with lots of flavor, and if you want chicken tryout their Dubai chicken sandwich, they put it on this really great tasting bread from Dubai. Don’t want to eat a ton of carbs? That’s alright try their Flying Dutchman burger without the shame or guilt of not leaving here without a meal! It’s something for everyone and if you have a sweet tooth get you a shake. 🥰not sponsored but I really enjoyed my time here and I hope you will as well.“

“Excellent fresh home cooked food!! And so many Vegan options it was almost too hard to choose! Thank you for a lovely lunch with my girls. We will be back for sure.“

“If you want a GREAT burger Happy Bites is the place to go. They have a variety of flavors and options for a truly unique burger. Always cooked to perfection and full of flavor. You don't need to go to BWW for great wings. They have bone-in and boneless options, and amazing sauces. Their delivery service is great. Food arrives hot and fresh and fast!“

“First time trying Retro Burger, & we loved it! We ordered burgers, cheese fries, & mozzarella sticks. Awesome food, really nice workers, & quick pick up! Will definitely be coming here more often.“

“Great Food.kid friendly very clean place.“

“🔥 simply amazing, too fresh“

“Valerie was amazing! She was so friendly, welcoming, and made the whole pickup process quick and easy for me today. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of, and her positive attitude really stood out. Great customer service like hers makes all the difference. Thank you, Valerie!“

“Absolutely the best Italian Beef sandwich on the south side, arguably the best in Chicago. The home made Giardiniera is also very good, with the perfect amount of heat. The sandwich is huge and the price is very good. Wish they had fresh cut fries. People working there are always nice. Small place, not a lot of seating, but has the old school Chicago vibe that I like. I live an hour away, but if I'm in the area I always stop in for a bite.“

“I love lucky dogs! Everything is delicious!! It’s always clean! Always friendly! I’ve never tried something that wasn’t delicious! Highly recommend the lucky dog in tiinley“

“Love the Manzo’s Burgers!!“

“Amazing service and taste! (Westlawn location)“

“That Ribeye Steak Sandwich is absolutely amazing! 🔥🔥🔥“

“Food was excellent!! Prices Excellent!! Will be back!“

“When they ARE open (They don't seem to have consistent business hours), the burgers are OUTSTANDING! I just wish the business practices would improve...in 2019, you should NEVER get a busy signal when dialing a company. #Business101.“

“Amazing food, at a good price. For sure reccomend it to anyone out there.“

“The manager Jessica was very nice and had great customer service. My food was ready fast“

“They have the best cheeseburger in Chicago. I went there in 2012, and 2013 on Kedzie, and omg it’s the best. I used to live in Highland Indiana and I took public transportation which it was GPTC bus to Downtown Hammond, and pace bus from Downtown Hammond Indiana to Downtown Harvey Illinois, and pace 349 from Harvey Transportation Center to 111th and Western, and CTA Route #112 bus from 111th and Western to 111th and Kedzie. Well now since I finally move to Chicago Auburn Gresham with my fiancé, and now I live 15 minutes away. I take 79th Street bus from 79th and Ashland to 79th and Kedzie, and transfer to CTA Route #52A Southbound and go all way to 111th and Kedzie. I’m even more glad you guys reopened which I had no idea where you guys relocated at Thanks to my friend Tracy for telling me where it is. I went there with my fiancé Raymon. I’m so glad you guys are amazing, and the service was great too. I’ll be back. This place is even very affordable.“

“Wanted to try something and stumbled across this! Absolutely delicious food and wonderful atmosphere. Will definitely be back!“

“Stopping by this bar on a drizzly weekday was alright. The drink I had was fine, though not particularly memorable. Service was efficient enough for what it was. It’s a perfectly acceptable option if you're looking for a quick drink in the area.“

“Their amazing cheeseburger. My favorite of all time.“

“Pretty good menu. Lots of grilled cheeses and at first I was skeptical but it really is flavorful. My favorite monthly sandwich I wish could be turned into a standard sandwich is the cubano. Loaded tots are also very good.“

“Impressed with the food, wine list and service every time we go. Had a delicious lunch today. Steak Sandwich, Turkey Bacon Melt & Grown up Grilled Cheese with brisket & those Truffle fries were fantastic.“

“Great food and an awesome location!“

“stopped in from the rain and grabbed a mini beef and fries...7.95...great price. beef sandwich is exactly what you want from a local beef joint. great casual service. Sox game on....(rain delay lol) I just got into town from Florida and after you leave midway it's about a 15 minute drive...awesome location in a great area! 👍 👌 Thanks for the great experience Beefys!“

“One of the Best !!!! Those Milk shakes and italian beefs .“

“I am still 1000% convinced that Culver's is the best fast casual burger place. Hell, even better than McDonald's, Wendy's and BK. Even though BK has gotten WAY better than before. I still haven't had the chance to eat at In N Out yet but so far nothing beats Culver's. The only one that may come a bit close to defeating the mighty Culver's is Shake Shack, but, still, Culver's is king. EVEN if they're based in Wisconsin and are assumedly Packers fans, I'll let it slide. Me being a Bears fan and all. 😎🐻“

“I went to Tinley park Schoop’s for the 1st time just over a month ago and have been back weekly since. The food, service and cleanliness of the restaurant is outstanding. The women who works there is great. The restaurant gets very crowded at lunch and the service was still outstanding. I will be a regular customer I have recommended to my family and friends.“

“The Jerk Burger and wings hit the spot! Fries are crispy and the seasoning is just right!“

“I just purchased ice cream for my family from the drive through. I know they close in 1 hour. EVERY SINGLE staff member who helped me was amazing, polite, helpful, and smiling! The customer service is fantastic!! Keep it up Culver’s in Crestwood. I appreciate the wonderful service!!“

“It's been a long time since I've been able to get a Maxwell polish and first time at this location was a little surprised they used frozen french fries instead of fresh cut fries but they were crispy and hot and the Polish still taste as I remembered. But it seems they're not as long as they don't stick out beyond the buns like they have in the past and at $7.50 per polish dog seems a little high added in with the shrink as you can see in the picture that I put along with this post. But I still love Maxwell polish.“

“Oh!My My!"everything Is "Supurb ""Especially"the Smoked Mac&Cheese AND, let's not forget The Soups of The DY>Farina Mffins"Yes,That's WhT,I said PLEASE 🙏 come By,You WON'T Regret! Your Experiencing ♡♡&Comfortable Dinni g....“

“I am not notable, so my opinion may be of little consideration for most. This stated, the pancakes I've had here rival some of the best I have ever tasted. This is without mentioning the Chorizo, the eggs, and their choice of spices and peppers. The food here as of this date 6/30/26, is some of the best food I have had.“

“The food is excellent. The Italian Beef is The best italian beef I've had. The meat was well seasoned, well proportioned and not dry. The bread was also really good. The polish was also excellent. The polish was well cooked and well flavored. All the way had peppers and onions and they went well with the polish. Cash only spot, to go only.“

“Their beer cheese soup is amazing! I had it at Gordon Ramseys place downtown and the soup here is better! It’s worth a trip just for that and the bread and better alone!“

“Appreciated the variety of menu options, was greeted immediately and was even given a sample. Portions were large, had plenty to take home for leftovers. The staff was very attentive and the food was fresh. No complaints, will definitely return.“

“I recommend BEEF POLISH w Everything! If you like hot/spicy also eat the peppers!
No other place like this place down here in Dolton or near NWI makes it like this place!
I hate hotdogs but beef polish is a different story!
100% Recommend.
Only Cash.
4-6 pm beef polish is cheaper.
Also for every order you get free FRIES.
Also if the white polish guys are there they definitely taste much better and I could tell because I’ve been here so many times. When I’m in Chicago I go to Jim’s Original. When I’m down here I only go to JJ Sausage.“

“We really enjoy the food plus the prices are very reasniable . We have tried almost everything on the menu and have enjoyed it all. Blake is an excellent bartender and host who makes you feel at home. He has a friendly personality and always has a smile on his face. Megan is a wonderful waitress who is friendly and outgoing. Best of all she makes us feel special because she always remembers what we like best. The owner (Roger) is a great person and always greets us with a big smile. He makes us feel like we are always welcome. We highly recommend BJ's for a nice evening out I'd you are in the Oak Lawn area. joel/Roy“

“We had dinner here this past Tuesday evening. Our server was beyond awesome! I have a gluten allergy and I appreciate Fridays offering a gluten free bun option, my burger was cooked perfect and was delicious! I only wish I lived close as we were staying next door at the Hyatt since my kids were flying out to return to college. Definitely would recommend and will return if I’m back in the area!“

“I just watched you guys on spotlight Chicago so I'm going to put the spotlight on you guys and share ! oh and I will be also attending who knows what date but I do see some around my birthday and my birthday is around July so I'm honored to be the first to share you guys platform.“

“The food was great. Love the onion rings. The host on the other hand, told my sister that we had to move to a different seating because the seat we was sitting at originally is for more than two people. So we moved to a different seat. Two caucasian lady come in and sit at the same table we moved from and nothing at all was said to them. We later was told that we can seat ourselves, which makes this situation even more confusing. Why did the male host ask us to switch our seat???? Food: 5/5 | Service: 2/5 | Atmosphere: 4/5“

“Very clean service was very friendly and helpful staff I was very pleased. I went there with my wife around 2pm yesterday on Friday after lunch time and the young man who took our order was very polite and professional thank you very much will be returning.“

“The food here was excellent! Fresh, generous portions, my pumpkin spice pancakes were fantastic! I love pumpkin pie so I gave these a try. I sampled eggs benedict, the BLT and their soup from my guests at the table, all good also. I will definitely be going back to try other delicious items on their menu.“

“Great family business and we support quality local businesses. Quality Za at a great price. Top notch recommendation!“

“I come to the oak Lawn establishment quite often, but haven't been there in a while due to work commitments . I was in last week and as usual, I ordered with Bill at the cash register. He jokes with me as he knows what I like, but more importantly, he was genuinely concerned that I was ok because he hadn't seen me in some time. I always get 2 shack burgers, and a drink. He calls me tht best dressed man in the place as I still get dressed in a suit everyday to go into the office. Great sense of humor.“

“My family has been there a few times and the food is delicious. Always fresh. Just love the food“

“Well originally I was craving for Portillos but since this whole week I've been working at Midway I kept seeing this hole and below local restaurant.. This is my first time trying Nikki's and I was actually suprised at the Italian beef. It was not bland compared to Al's Beef or Portillo's but at the same time it was not too salty. I like that they use steak fries. Very chunky. As for the choice of a drink for the meal for $12.99 they had horchatas as well as Jamaican juice and mango or the regular soda fountain drinks. I would have given them four stars for my experience but after seeing that they don't have a bathroom to wash your hands. Service was ok. Ambience was like a hole in the wall or very local which is good. I would come back but next time would like to try their burgers or their barbecue rib tips. I do recommend for such food“
