North Chicagoland suburb staple classic burgers joint! Rund by two brothers always there and they are the only ones that grill the burgers witch is awesome. I always get a char cheese burger single patty double is huge and very messy to eat. Burgers are cooked to order fresh! The grill flavor plus seasoning really come thur and they are always super juicy l've never had a dry burger here. 100% recommend!
Okay so true story..I was headed south down River Road on my way to Steak n Shake because I had a craving for a Smashburger as I'm passing Paradise PupI get the wonderful wafting smell of charred meat from the smoke out of thier smoke stacks...that changed everything I immediately hung a u-turn and went back and had a 1/3 lb American Charburger and and the onion rings by the are amazing probably the best I've had from anywhere in years they're always either...
Way better than it has any right to be, definitely worth the trip. Bring an appetite. Definitely go for cheese on your burger, there's something special about the cheddar they put on it. The burger and fries were 😘, the PB& Banana shake even better. There's only one other place in the US, I'd take over this, Page's Creamery in Pittsburgh, and they aren't open most of the year. Only place in the Chicago area I found comparable is Johnnie's...
