Burger Restaurants near Fox River Grove

“McDonalds is getting way overpriced and food is....ok at best. Thought I'd try Culvers in FRG. Was NOT dissapointed! For about the same price you get a DELICIOUS, HOT, LOOKS LIKE THE PICTURE burger, huge portion of hot crispy fat fries and a soft drink of your choice! I'm not one to take pictures of my food, but I did! It was a masterpiece! Loved it!“

“So many McDonald's are hit or miss but this one has been a pretty consistent hit! Staff has always been very friendly, wait times have been minimal, and most importantly they have always gotten my order right! Compare it to the one right down the road in Algonquin and it's night and day. Will go out of my way to stop here instead of there in the morning for breakfast. Recommend!“

“Such a great menu and unique items! We tried as much as we could in one meal and will definitely be back. Our server Abbie was awesome.“

“First time here. The atmosphere is clean and bright! The service is delightful, and perfectly attentive. The menu selection is creative and thoughtful. I was easily able to find something great. The drinks and food came out very quickly with great timing. They have fun pineapple 🍍 😉 glasses for their delicious cold pressed fruit drinks! Mediterranean omelette was perfect, tho I requested avocado and black olives be added because avocado addiction -- which they happily added (kalimata). The accompanying fruit was nice (watermelon, pineapple, grapes). The loaded french toast is amazing [dessert for breakfast FTW HAHA ]!! Asked for fresh pressed watermelon 🍉 basil drink (slightly custom) and it's perfectly refreshing!! I had a great breakfast with my son. Thanks 🙏🏼 !!! This is my new favorite spot.“

“Good food and big servings“

“We had an amazing dinner and service with my two daughters for the youngest 8th grade graduation. They treated us like queens and we ate like it also!!“

“Great service. Delicious food.“

“Tried the new menu item Gyros. Hope they keep it on the menu. They were great. The Tzatziki Sauce which makes a Gyro was perfect with enough cucumbers. We now have a new place to go to for Gyros. Last, I had just about everything on their menu and everything is delicious.“

“Loved everything about our first experience! Great food, service and atmosphere!“

“Attentive staff, always checking on customers like us, fast in responding to your needs/refilling sides.“

“This was my first time going to a Steak ‘n Shake. I really was impressed by the ordering method if doing it on the screen inside. The inside of the restaurant is nicely clean. The old fashion theme is really nice too. I got the triple steak burger. Dyammm, It fills you up! If you want to easy a lot, go here! The fries were also good but the cheese on top could have been a bit hotter. Overall, not a bad place to stop by, or even before you go to the movies!“

“I have been going to Luke’s since the 80’s. I moved away and still go there. Never had bad food or service. I wish I still lived close it was my Saturday movie night go to go beefs.“

“First time here , and won't be the last, everything we had was delicious. Michele N. was a great server !“

“Just picked a random restaurant while moving our college kid into his apartment. Had no idea but the food was fantastic and Rhonda our server was fabulous!!! We are all looking forward to the next time we are in town and my college kid can’t wait to bring friends!“

“I really like burgers and the burger here is one of the best I've ever had, and when I forgot to order fries and was about to reorder, our foods were already delivered to the table and the manager gave us free fries because food was getting cold. This little service made my wife and I feel so good. Thanks,“

“I visited the Crystal Lake Culver’s on Saturday, May 24th, 2025. I am an avid fan of Culver’s and I have visited 35 locations in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Missouri and Kentucky. As a resident of Crystal Lake I visit this Culver’s very regularly. The food was excellent and the service was quick. I definitely recommend the ice cream and the chicken. 5/5 I will definitely be back very soon. (Written 6-3-25)“

“Enjoyed a great healthy yummy family dinner 6 of us last night. Bison meat tender and I really enjoyed my warm Power Poke Salmon Bowl! Thank you for the great service!“

“We dined at the bar, and Anna the bartender was great! It was very busy, but she did a good job taking care of her customers. Food was great, as always. Thanks!“

“Every time I go to this location the food is fresh and the staff is so friendly and fast. You can tell that there’s a huge passion for perfection from the general manager. She goes up and above to ensure that her store is clean, her food is excellent and her service is implacable.“

“Great place to end a day and start the weekend“

“great atmosphere,quick and friendly.“

“My family of six ate at Culvers in McHenry on Tuesday, Dec 31 about 1:30. We were greeted with a pleasant hello. The lady who took our order got it right and was pleasant.Since were a group of 6, I figured it would take a little longer to get our order. That wasn't the case. Not only did the order come quickly, but is also accurate. That was wonderful! When we were nearing the end of our meal, a gentleman, (Jude, I believe) can around with free samples of the flavor of the day (Mint explosion). Never has that happened at Colvers to me in the many times I eat at different Culvers! What a nice touch! Upon leaving, we got a cheery Thank you, have a great day and happy new year. I wish I lived a little closer because Culvers in McHenry would definitely be my go to place. Thank you for good food and the kindness you all showed.“

“I have been going to this place for over forty years and they still have one consistent problem that never gets solved. They short me items in the drive through. It doesn't happen with the dine-in and the food is always hot and fresh. I just wish they would teach the workers to count burgers and fries when they put them in the bag for takeout.“

“I ordered catering from Eggville Cafe a friend of mine said their catering was amazing and I had a family gathering coming up I had to try it out! Everything was perfectly cooked they had so many different options to choose from I ordered the kebabs and a side salad, some potatoes some meatballs and a couple other things that they threw in everything tasted amazing. It was delicious and was reasonably priced if you were looking for catering for any event like a graduation coming up or birthday or family gatherings I definitely highly recommend them they were amazing and they got everything I wanted and more!!“

“Very good hot dog; they really grill it until it is hot. A "Shroomer" made as a grilled chicken sandwich is good. The burger is good and I have ended up getting a kid's meal last time so that I can try to eat less meat. I am more of a light weight person anyway. The inside of the restaurant could be renovated. They are still in the real old Kooker's building with the same old tile floor that Kooker's restaurant had when I was in high school. It is over 20 years later now. I have been willing to go back to Happy Burger to get meals. The people at the front desk are nice. I do admit, though, sometimes I end up getting a burger for $3 at fast food drive-throughs. Happy Burger (HB) burger tastes more like a fresh made juicy burger when compared to the McDonald's on the other side of the street. HB fries are not bad but could be better because when the HB fries come up and go into a bag, I have found they were a bit wet.Wet fries is a common imperfection with Chicago-style grills.“

“Great location, employees are awesome. Food is always hot and fresh!“

“Everything tasted great tonight but for some reason the bun just fell apart...“

“We love picking up a quick lunch here, our go-to are the Chicago style dogs. Always a treat for a work lunch!“

“This is a new Culver's, still great food, in a modern package. You must try everything but for your first time go with a butter burger, cheese curds, and leave room for custard of your choice.

Next time (there will be a next time) look beyond a burger and try the cod, pot roast sandwich, or soup.

Nothing will disappoint you....

Remember, don't forget the custard!👍“

“Usually great service and people, but you guys missed the mark tonight. The delivery person outside tried to give me at least 3 different orders that weren’t ours, and when we got home the chicken nuggets were missing the sauce, and the chili was missing the toppings and sour cream. Not a great outing tonight.“

“Celebrated my birthday there the chocolate bomb was Awesome!!!“

“this place is awesome. I've visited probably a dozen times since they have opened. I've never had cold food here and everything I've tried is always good. Manager frequently walks thru the dining room to make sure everything is ok. Impressive.“

“reasonable for the pasta!“

“Asia is amazing! This place is the best!“

“Amazing service and food! I love coming here because the staff is always so nice and professional. When I ask to customize my food, the staff is always eager to give it top quality! The restaurant is always clean, which is something of a rare commodity now days. Highly recommend it!“

“If you want to sit by the water and enjoy a nice night out and great snack food (Italian Beef bites) and burgers, I recommend The Longshot. Go see Lisa on Friday night and tell her Krista and Lori sent you!“

“First time there. Definitely not my last. Had the Chicago Dog and fries. And an Italian Beef with sweet. Both 5 STARS!! Next time I'm ordering the "Bada Bing". The menu is huge. So little time.“

“Pretty good place and service is wonderful.“

“I love this store my family and I have been going to this store since I was a little kid. I got my wife a custom Ice Cream cake for her Birthday and she loved it. Highly Recommend!“

“So I have to admit that I've been wanting to try this place, but I was bit skeptical of buying food from a place inside a gas station. I'm very happy that I got over my fears, they have a friggin awesome burger! It's a must try for you burger lovers!“

“Burger and fries were both great“

“My server Ava was PERFECT. \nShorthanded (alone on shift) serving multiple tables and she just kept on smiling and doing everything right. \nI was in from a 12 hour shift and she helped me get exactly what I wanted. Thank you!! Deserves a raise!“

Wheelchair accessibility: There is handicap parking. The restrooms are wheelchair accessible and there are wheelchair accessible tables.“
