27 Best Burger Restaurants near Carterville

“It’s a good, standard diner. Portions and prices are reasonable. Food is good. Coffee is standard diner coffee so don’t get your hopes up. Not very strong and doesn’t taste that great, but that’s what you get at a diner. Everything else was pretty good!“

“Great time celebrating a birthday with friends! Service was friendly and attentive. Margaritas were delicious. I am a sucker for a giant pretzel and baby it did not disappoint. Massive but so tasty and great cheese alongside. I barely had room for the wings I ordered but they were incredible too! Like something out of a food blog. Will definitely be back.“

“Our hometown DQ. Lots of memories here. Good food and ice cream.“

“Of all the McDonald's I've been to, and that's a lot at 62, this location is my favorite. My food is hot, served quickly, or asked to pull forward but not for long. If you don't want to have a wait, I wouldn't go there on the weekends. They are busy and you might have to wait.“

“We pulled up and a young man came to our vehicle to take our order. He brought us a menu. Took our order and brought it out. He was very nice. We haven't eaten here in years, we had moved away. I would definitely recommend trying this place. They only except cash but have an atm inside, husband did have to go in to pay as we didn't have cash so he had to use atm.“

“first time I ever ate there was this pass Saturday first off the cook qas eating while preparing food they serve us our food on paper plates for 6 people we ordered burgers and fries came up to 73 dollars! they have a lifting weight holding the freezer door down shut they did not wear gloves he was grabbing meat with his bare hands and then making other food the hour we was there I did not see him wash his hands! 1st and last time ever going there don't recommend“

“Great service and good food!!! Everyone working there is helpful and friendly!! The Cod fish sandwich, fries, drink, and turtle sundae was delicious!! My husband loves the butter burgers and my son loves the pretzel and cheese bites!! Marion Culver’s is the best fast food place in Marion!!“

“We love this place! Great food with creative flair and terrific value. The whole family is excited to stop when we're in town.“

“I used to work at Culvers and we never disappointed in serving with a smile and helping good paying customers with their orders and complaints. Yes, there were issues every once and a while but what restaurant doesn't. I've eaten there several different times while off the clock or just on one of my off days and my food was always hot and never came out wrong, it's not special treatment, it's good service and being caring and compassionate about one another. <3“

“My friend and I went to O'Charley's in Marion, Il, and had a great time from the minute we walked in until we left. The food was very good, and the service was, too. Our waiter, Ayden, made it a very entertaining time for us, and made us feel special. If they have an employee of the month there, we nominate him for sure! Thanks for a wonderful time!“

“Found an onion ring in my French fries! I love when that happens! Now I'm not saying it was intentional, but if it was thank you. You guys are the best, Burger King is one of those places that is really hit or miss depending on your location so I'm glad the one in Carbondale is good. My fries and burger alway come out hot and fresh.“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“I have visited Chuck’s a good amount and the food has NEVER disappointed! The serving staff has always been great with my kiddos and has always communicated well if there’s an issue. I am also extremely addicted to their catfish bites. I would topple kingdoms for a plate of those….😅 Also, good size portions!“

“Per my husband-"better gyro than El Greco!" Hot was hot, fresh, and well made. Will definitely be going back often.“

“The crab legs were very good. The service was incredible. She was working by herself dealing with all you can eat Crab leg hungry people with a smile and keeping up on when we were ready for more. She was handling the bar, the tables and the patio. We were very impressed with her!! We’ll definitely be back.“

“I know Hardee's in New Ulm MN has had some issues, but I went there today and was more than impressed! there were at least four people working there and they were so friendly and the food came really fast. it was fresh and hot and delicious! I can't wait to go there again, it looks like they have really pulled it together!“

“Don't buy drinks. ask for diet you'll get regular or regular and get diet it's been bad for last 2+ years. We used to get cherry lime 2 times a day & they are messing up the orders. Giving them diabetics“

“Our waitress was very nice, the food tasted amazing, & the service was fast! Also the man at the door when we left was super nice! 10/10 would recommend, our kiddos loved there food & everyone including other customers were very friendly!“

“Food has always been good in my experience. Can’t take partial payments though which is super inconvenient and very easy to do on most POS systems so either the girl didn’t know how and should be trained or they need some serious updates on the POS system. I have acquired so many gift cards throughout the years and every time I go to use them, the reader or whatever is apparently broken. So like just making money off of gift cards and then not being able to redeem them is kinda wild. Wait is far too long. Team member tonight was super friendly though!!“

“Old chicken and if you want just suger in your coffee put it in yourself they only know how to use creamer. I normally wouldn't post a bad comment but this place is horrible many times have I gotten the wrong order and no sugar in my coffee with creamer when you order it with just sugar...“

“The handsome man with the beard, Paul I believe his name was. Were super kind to me throughout the entire process of taking my order, checking me out and handling my food. even when my order was wrong he promptly had it remade. He made me feel special and not just another customer. Even my daughter took note of it. I hope to see him every time I order from this location! Very satisfied! 😁“
