50 Best Burger Restaurants near Kildeer

“Five stars for five guys! Friendly service evrry single time and our burgers are literally always sizzled to perfection! Dont forget to get a bag of their delicious fries. You know it's decent when you see familiar faces who've been there at least a year.“

“The place is very nice and clean. Atmosphere is clear with good vibes. When we got our food, the fries were very warm! I got the Jack Burger and it was good. I will say that it was not that warm though. Ice cream afterwards was very delicious. Strawberry is my personal favorite.“

“Very good food, we opted to try this place instead of taking the kids to somewhere like mcdonalds and paying almost the same prices. Fries were delicious! The kids meals came with a slider cheeseburger, chicken bites, fries and juice so they got to try a little bit of everything. Staff was very friendly. Highly recommend for a quick bite to eat.“

“They use dark meat so its flavorful. However its not everyone's cup of tea. Wish they had a chicken sandwich option for white meat. Overall clean facility, good prices, & tasty food! One of those cases where the food tastes better than the pic.

Cons: lack of sauces on the side. No catering orders.“

“Amazing service ! Bar tender Jimmy was absolutely great. My boyfriend and I stopped by for a quick drink and soup before the movies and had a Good time thanks to him!“

“The restaurant is nice and big. It is clean! The waitstaff is great, friendly and efficient . The food is very very good and you know it's a great place to go when there is a wait line, sometimes out the door. You have the option to eat outside in good weather. My husband and I always try to get the cozy two seater table in the little nook by the window. The food is very tasty and plenty of flowing coffee. Due to illness we are not able to come out much, but I sure miss this place. Lots of wonderful Saturday morning breakfast memories. Wishing you great continued success.“

“One of the next vegan burgers I've had. And they played black Sabbath the whole time. RIP Ozzy!“

“I love this place. We eat here at least 3xs a month. Everything is amazing! My favorite is the Tri Tip or Pulled Pork. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Its a bit expensive but the quality is top notch. Shakes are really good too!“

“This is my family's go to for breakfast most weekends. Very friendly staff and the food is always delicious. 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Still the best burger around“

“Really tasty burger. They cook it with onions but they almost mince the meat like ground beef when they serve it to you. Different, but very good. The fries were very good also - not my favorite but not bad whatsoever - I have very high standards for fries. If you're in the area, give this place some business! The building is clean and the owner was accommodating and friendly.“

“Oh my gosh this place is so friendly and accommodating. I wish there was one near where I live!
Food is fun; you get to check off on the sandwich bag what you want on your sandwich. They take it and put it on a pulley line and make your sandwich!

Also, the atmosphere is peak; they have chess! 🙌“

“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!“

The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. Everyone commented on how delicious everything tasted. I would definitely hireThe Hungry Mule again.“

“We went with our Burger Club to Lucky Burgers (a.k.a. Jelly Cafe after dark or 4pm, whichever comes first).

Jelly Cafe is a breakfast and lunch place open 7am until 2pm. Then they switch over to Lucky Burgers which is open from 4pm until no one is there and they want to go home. Though technically I think they’re open until 8 or 9pm.

There are a handful of items on the Lucky Burgers’ menu: about 5 variations of their classic burger, a chicken sandwich, chicken tenders, and waffle fries.

When we went, the place was empty and never got busy. Which opened the door for one of the owners, Scott, to regale us with tales of days gone by from his childhood in Evanston and the famous people he knew, grew up with, and worked with. It was nice hearing these stories and it was nice to give Scott something and somebodies to talk to as well.

The place has a large parking lot and is nice and clean on the inside. There is a tiny area with slot machines and a small bar/counter at the entrance.

The burgers are all smashburgers. They come as singles or double patties. Go for the double as there’s not a whole lot of meat once they’re smashed. The differences are the toppings. Scott recommends their housemade dijonaise sauce which is good, but ask for it on the side. The cook slathers it on the burger and that’s all you can taste. Once I scooped (you read that correctly) the sauce off my burger, it was a pretty good burger. The meat is seasoned well and cooked nicely and the bun holds up (despite dripping in dijonaise).

We all shared the chicken tenders as an appetizer. Five nice sized tenders come in the meal and you can choose your dipping sauce. Scott recommended their honey mustard which was very good and the ranch wasn’t bad either.

He is also johnny-on-the-spot to refill fill your drinks. I seriously thought that I would float away.

The best part is the price. All said and done for a burger, waffle fries, and a soda, with tax and tip is like $15-$18 bucks.

It’s a nice place that I need to go back to and visit for the Jelly Cafe side. AND return for their burgers, tenders, and more of Scott’s stories.“

“Standard BK, not bad, except, i feel they over salt everything at this location. The fries and nuggets have been super salty the last 3 times I've been. They always have fresh Tacos though, so that is good. And yes BK has a taco on the menu!“

“Love cafe on the grove!! Great food and service“

“This is the second time in a week that we've chosen to eat at this restaurant. It is so delicious. I could go back 200 times and always pick something different. And I'm sure every single time it would be hot, spicy, perfect, and delicious. Such great choices. I highly recommend this Korean chicken and boba restaurant.“

“****A cut above the rest. -Great and consistent food -genuinely attentive and warm service making you feel right at home. Many ingredients are organic—not because it’s a selling point, but simply because that’s how they do things. The flavors feel more like homemade Greek cooking than typical restaurant fare.“

“I went in with my dad and expected a good burger and not much else. I couldn't even believe how much more I got. From the moment I got there, Alexander, the guy manning the cash register was so helpful, informative, and kind without being overbearing. I was mind blown how much he cared about his job. It left a huge impression. Turns out he was the general manager, which made sense, haha. The burger itself was so much better than I expected. I will be going back for sure. Amazing, extremely memorable experience.“

“Ten years ago began my obsession with Frank’s corn nuggets. In high school, every time I had a dollar to spend, I’d head to Frank’s for an order of corn nuggets. Any time anyone asks me what my favorite food is, for the past ten years it has been Frank’s corn nuggets. Today, for the first time ever, I ordered corn nuggets and they were sold out! I told the owner about my long-held love of these fried treats and how I now live in Wisconsin but often travel to Mundelein specifically to have them. He says he has been trying to get the product in but unfortunately couldn’t get his hands on them lately. I sighed, and ordered a corn dog (closest corn substitute on the menu), onion rings, and sweet potato fries. All were great! At the end of my meal the owner surprises me with a small order of corn nuggets he had searched his supply for after I told him my story. Just great people and great times at Frank’s for the Memories as always! Frank’s holds a space in my heart forever and always and while they don’t have the corn nuggets today I will continue to return for the care and welcoming feel they always provide.
Thanks Frank’s“

“We love the welcoming & friendly staff to my husband and I as well as my dog when eating on the comfortable and shady patio! The menu is very interesting & diverse ! Hard decisions each time! The cheese curds are delicious and unlike any other restaurants”s version! Highly recommended!!!!“

“Always visiting this place before the show but this time decided to attend after Sunday 5pm show. Service was amazing, it was 11 of us, and kind hostess Sandra could figure it out very quickly even if we had no reservation. Our group enjoyed food even if it took a bit longer than we expected. Will be coming back for sure.“

“Great pizza. Miss having one near us.“

“We decided to come in on a rainy Sunday, we were greeted with a very friendly cashier, as well as checked in multiple times by the manager on duty named Arthur. Overall, this was such a nice experience. We drove all the way from the deep in the city of Chicago to come because we heard about this place. It’s definitely worth the travel.!!!“

“It’s a great place to bring your family“

“We had a wonderful waiter today named Luke. Friendly service and was very nice. The apple Swiss cheeseburger was wonderful . The staff is super friendly and we will definitely be going back .“

“Muy buen servicio y amabidilad very good service and friendly people“

“We’ve had IHOP several times, and Roman is hands down one of the best servers we’ve experienced. We’ve been lucky to have him multiple times, and he’s consistently attentive, friendly, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. He checks in at the right times, keeps everything running smoothly, and always has a great attitude. Service like his really makes a difference, definitely one of the reasons we keep coming back!“

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

“I love the Italian beef with sweet peppers- always have! Some of my family love the Chicago style hot dogs. Always consistently delicious and a fun place to eat. Keep it up!“

“Best people work here Food is great Pride in ownership Known Peter for years“

“I've been here three times in the past year and have been wowed each time. The employees are always nice and accommodating. The food is perfect each time, the bathrooms and restaurant itself are very clean, and the space is welcoming! That's saying a lot from someone who worked in a lot of restaurants over the years and can easily spot issues. Bagels are chewy, thaw nicely after being in my freezer for a bit, and make excellent sandwiches. Thank you for the Windex and cleaning up my water bottle catastrophe ;)“

“I’ve been here a couple of times.

This time I wanted to try their gyro which was fantastic!! Flavorful and loaded with a lot of meat!
Their pita bread was soft and their sauce pretty good!

One of the best places around here!“

“To the staff at Libertyville Culver’s, thank you so much for taking care of Hanna during her Special Needs Transition Pathways work program. Hanna loved working there. Not to worry, we love Culverts and Hanna will be back!“

“I love absolutely every bite“

“It has a very simple menu that packs a lot of flavor to the meal... Mmmmmmmm😋👍🏼 This was our first time, but not to be our last. We traveled about 1 hour and 40 minutes to discover I want this in my life. The buns were so good, & that cheese sauce...Mmmmmm😋👍🏼“
