31 Best Burger Restaurants near Glen Carbon

“The food and staff at 54th St in Glen Carbon are great but I REALLY HATE how after the remodel they can’t open the patio doors. What is the point of even saying you have a patio when it is all closed up.“

“Stephanie was wonderful and I’m so sorry for my child getting you with the vampire teeth“

“7 of us gathered from Illinois, Florida and Missouri for lunch. From the minute we stepped in the front door and were greeted. We felt special and like family. Such welcoming, friendly staff. Service was great. Food outstanding. The atmosphere was perfect for allowing us to reunite and catch up on lost time.“

“Lucas in the drive thru was amazing. I don’t typically take the time to do this but service that is up and WAY beyond , I do. Thank you for being personal and making things right when you knew they were not. Appreciate you! Take that attitude where you go. It’s amazing.“

“We order on the app and went to pick up. I ordered a pretty obscure menu item (teriyaki bowl) and when we pulled up to the window we were greeted by a very pleasant and apologetic associate. I wish I had caught her name, she really went above and beyond. They were out of the item and the app had not updated properly. She explained calmly and asked if I would like something else. I asked for a wrap and she ended up giving us 2 to ensure I had enough food. She brought everything out to the car and again was so pleasant and apologetic that the order hadn’t gone perfectly. It’s easy to get things right, it’s above and beyond to be so pleasant, communicative and an accommodating when something isn’t perfect. If she isn’t the manager, I hope she is soon! Thank you!“

“Great food. Had the All American burger. Nice and juicy. The bacon and onions were cooked just right.“

“The first time we ordered, we were disappointed with our food. However, they reached out right away, apologized, and gave us a discount for our next visit. We decided to try them again tonight, and everything was great. The food was cooked perfectly, the staff was nice, and my kids got to play a board game. If you had a less than stellar first experience with them, I would suggest giving them another try.“

“very good hamburgers and very good tater tots and they have a sauce that is awesome“

“Great food and great prices“

“Fire N Smoke never misses!!! It’s my husband & I’s go-to and is SOO delicious. The wings, pulled pork, brisket, potato twisters, EVERYTHING is so good!!“

“My two grandchildren and I were getting hungry - they saw the Freddy's sign and we stopped in. The people who waited on us were very good - they helped us all order what we were looking for - and it was delicious. We ate in the restaurant and was very pleased with all who work there. Thank you - great memories for all of us.“

“Don’t order the onion rings, you only get 6 in an order. But the sandwich was good.“

“Absolutely awesome place to visit. Go on Tuesdays, when pinball is FREE! That's not why it rates high, but it is a plus.

We started with the beer pretzel appetizers. Fan-damn-tastic. Superb! The cheese dip that comes with it, as well as the honey mustard dressing, were exceptional compliments.

Wings are great. Recommend the garlic sauce if you are into lots of garlic. Really tasty.

Atmosphere is top notch. Dress up, dress down. Just relax and enjoy.“

“This is the best Burger King in my area. Ashley N. always gets the order right. I have been going here for a couple years. I have never been parked waiting on an order. The sandwiches are hot and made to order every time. Keep up the good work everyone it’s amazing.“

“Only one other person in the dining room when we were here yesterday. The food was tasty even though it took 20 minutes to be served. Drive thru must have been busy. Bathrooms were clean.

Dietary restrictions: I don't eat carbs they removed the bun at my request. Food was hot.“

“Showed up with a huge group for breakfast- felt bad about overwhelming the staff but they were terrific. Sat us immediately and assigned one server (Sam - PHENOMENAL) so the rest of the restaurant wasn’t negatively impacted. Everything went super smoothly and she was just great. Food was perfect!!“

“Our family just had an amazing restaurant experience at Red Robin in Edwardsville! Our son has Down syndrome and being in public places causes him a lot of anxiety. We haven’t been to a restaurant as a family in many years because the stress for him and everyone around him was just too much. On arrival the hostess was so accommodating! She let my husband look at the table options to see what would work best for our son. She worried about skipping over us on the wait list even though we were clear that we were totally fine with waiting for the table that worked best. The manager asked a server to take on an extra table so that we wouldn’t have to wait longer. Our server, Mason, was so kind to take on an extra table for us. Mason is an excellent server. He was very friendly with our boys, kept our drinks full, and brought our food and drinks very quickly. Our meals were delivered quick and delicious. Thank you Red Robin for giving us an awesome experience!“

“It was okay of a hamburger place. I'll probably go back. It was nothing like In -N-out outburger It was almost like a whopper from burger king. I'll definitely go back and try something different. But you don't have to take my word for it“

“When I'm in town, I always make sure to stop for breakfast at Red Apple. No matter how long between visits, the employees all remember my regular, a giant Red Apple Omelet and wheat toast. They treat customers like family and are always welcoming“

“A shout out to the person handling the dining room and fountain soda. She was amazing and her customer service was outstanding. Date 6/15 Time 12:30 I hope you are able to let her know. Her name tag was hidden behind her apron or we would have had her name. Wow! Dawn Mushill, CEO Customer Service and Beyond“

“First time ever going to Applebee's near my phone. Just wanted to try to meet you out.

“This place has been on my radar since I moved to the mid west from the west coast and the burgers are really good, fresh nothing fancy just a solid hood burger. They make their own patties the fixings were fresh and crisp. No complaints but ask for extra seasoning on the fries.“

“We were greeted by the general manager and the other workers chimed in as well with a hello. Even with being busy they made sure to be friendly and checked in to make sure everyone had what they needed. The general manager made sure to share with the other employees how wonderful of a job they did. The food was very good but it's the employees that made it a wonderful place to eat.“

“Went to the Troy IL location. Made it through the drive thru line pretty quick. Although the drive thru attendant is friendly, they need to give some attention to special requests. I usually I request no ice, because of sensitive teeth, my drink almost always has ice in it. Also, extremely sad that when you replace a small beverage for a coffee you pay more than $1 more. I'm pretty sure coffee costs more than soda.“

“Chelsea was quick and happy !!! Thanks again Chelsea!!“

“First time visiting a Freddy’s. Caught by surprise when I was greeted as I walked in. Patty melt was amazing. Double burger was good. Love the shoe string fries and onion rings. Hotdog was also good. Chicken fingers - wow! Peppermint Oreo shake was just right and the dirt and worms concrete was a solid. Would visit again given the opportunity. The restaurant vibe is on point“

“I had such great raves for a young man that worked at this store on August 2nd I have to share. I was traveling 64 on August 1st getting sleepy n hungry about 4pm I pulled off grabbed a fav of mine mushroom Swiss it was ok as usual but full n happy I went to get through St Louis before resting for night. Got about an hour away found a truckstop n rested. To my dismay waking about 4 am I wanted to get gas and tea in truckstop but searching for my wallet frantically it was nowhere to be found. I always stop retrace where was last use of my wallet n bam Hardee's. After Google gave me closest ones 2 calls is all it took great lady at 1st call told me they, Hardees, weren't off 64 but gave me # of or it might been just street name of the one that was. And yep Christian answered the call even before opening he searched the safe but no then I told him where I went in restaurant bathroom n booth. Now it might say a little bad about cleaners in the restaurant but bam there it was still sitting where I was the night before. Thank goodness yes still things n money in it and Christian was a name I wouldn't forget that day kept it safe til I got there. Thanks Christian!!! Sincerely Lady in uhual headed to Kansas“

“You guys did an amazing job with our cake! Thanks so much!!!! ❤“

“Hillary is a great waitress. Jesus made the food perfect for us and checked on us!! Becca greeted us and sat us asking how our day was. Jamie greeted us before she left. The staff is all super friendly and it was just an amazing experience.“

“My review is specific to our waitress, Hannah.

She seemed slightly overwhelmed but her effort was top notch and she was so nice to my family the entire time.

Thank you Hannah for your attention and positive attitude. You did great!“

“We went in about 6pm on 3-10-25. We were greeted by an outgoing young woman who was beyond kind. Then, our order was taken by a young man who had to take over bc she had to leave...and even though the pressure was put onto him, he stayed calm and polite. He took our order and made sure we did not need anything else. His attitude was appreciated! After we ate, I went to fill my cup with Hi-C. It was out. I waited for staff to be done with an order and asked if he had some. The shift leader was prepared to help when the other man came back (from taking food outside to a customer) and told the shift leader that the Hi-C was gone. I asked if there was lemonade. The shift leader explained to me that it is hand-crafted lemonade and that there would be an upcharge. We had already eaten & paid so it would be an inconvenience to both myself and the staff to have to figure out how to pay for just the upcharge, so I said no thank you. The staff looked worried. I told them it was fine. I was not worried about it. As you can see, I didn't count off any points for that, because it simply wasn't an issue. The only reason the atmosphere was an issue is because there was some construction work that needed to be completed and the lobby was a little dirty. BUT the girl in the lobby doesn't deserve to be in trouble for it because she was cleaning as we left as well as had been doing other tasks when we were eating. Overall, I would give this visit 5 stars. Overall, I would give the staff 10-out-of-5 stars! The staff made the entire visit feel like we were in an upscale establishment. Those 3 workers (that were running the place with just the 3 of them!!) need a raise!!!!!
I had to share a nice review because most people only share the bad things that happen. Please pass this on to whoever it needs to go to in order to let those 3 know they are doing an incredible job!!!
