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.“

“Everything is perfection here. I've never had an issue with their food or service. In fact, I've always been delighted by how nice the employees are. Really, folks, how hard is that? Thank you for actually caring about your customers. The food options are great & they actually taste good! Again, why is that so difficult for other businesses? Love them!“

“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!“

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

“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!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“GREAT food! The double slaw burger was amazing (and no Cole slaw like I was thinking). The onion rings were delicious and very generous portions. I look forward to going back soon.“

“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.“

“Saw this place plenty of times on social media and finally gave it a try today. Ordered the Philly cheesesteak combo with fries and a drink; also got a 6 piece buffalo wings. Ended up getting 2 of their homemade ranches, which have this great dill flavor. Everything was absolutely delicious especially because it’s all cooked in beef tallow. The cheesesteak had a generous portion of steak and cheese on it, all served on this fresh seeded bread that had a delicious garlic bread taste. The buffalo wings were great too. Everything was cooked fresh but the star was that dill ranch. I put it on everything and it just amplified the flavors. Definitely going to be visiting again, highly recommended.“

“Still the best burger around“

“There is a home flavored taste to all the dishes. Very home style foods every time. very spacious atmosphere inside or outside .“

“It’s a good sandwich place. I tried a few of their sandwiches and haven’t had one I didn’t. You can also modify them to your liking. It’s usually not busy which I like because we can order and get our food quickly. This is our daughter’s favorite sandwich place (she’s 4 but knows what she likes lol).“

“Great food and super friendly staff“

“Great service. Delicious food.“

“Great food and great service!“

“The staff is very friendly. The food was good. The atmosphere was wonderful. I recommend you guys to get the hamburger there they have different ones.“

“I have been going there for many years . They treat you like family. I Highley recommended. Great food.“

“Great cocktails. Busy even as the evening started to progress. My beet salad with shrimp was tasty. Pretty lake view“

“Had a fantastic experience at Epic Burger in Barrington! Having halal options is huge for us, and the food here is made fresh and delicious. I ordered the halal beef burger, and my daughter loved her halal chicken sandwich. A special shoutout to the manager, Arthur, who provided an outstanding service and made our visit wonderful. He assured us that there is no cross contamination and when my daughter ordered her shake, she was skeptical about the whipped cream (from Oberwise) so Arthur made sure that the whipped cream was not Gelatin based. Went out of the way to make sure we are satiafied. Highly recommend this spot for great food and excellent hospitality!“

“I hired The Hungry Mule in Lake Zurich to cater a luncheon for about 65 people. The owner and staff were easy to work with. Very accommodating. 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.“

“Inside, outside, early night, late night, no matter when or where, it’s always fantastic, every single time. The spicy feta is great, the chicken kabobs, martinis, coffees, have never had anything not fantastic!“

“Reps is one of our favorite spots! The nachos and wings are amazing, and the food is always top-notch. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend it!“

“****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.“

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

“Absolutely the best gyros I have ever had! They cut the pita in quarters, so it doesn't get grease soaked. Tomato slices were thick and fresh! Next time I'm craving gyros, they will be from Nikkos!“

“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.“

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Great pizza. Miss having one near us.“

“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!“

“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 .“

“This is an amazing decades long family owned destination for the VERY BEST hot wings! The seating is comfortable inside and outside!
The wings are superb, meaty, fresh, cooked to perfection and sauced how wings are supposed to be. Great sauce choices and sides as well as other meal items.

I found this little gem in the late 80's and frequented for years.
I had moved away and hadn't been back in over 25 years.
It is like I never left, just as I remember.
I can't say enough good things about Frank's for the Memories!! It's a must try if you are ever in the area!!!“

“Culver’s at mount prospect is a really nice and friendly place specially one employee...!!! I dont know his name but he makes every guest feels welcome..!!! And the food is really good..!! My daughters love chicken tenders and ice cream 🍨“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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 ;)“

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

“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!“

“I love absolutely every bite“

“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!“

“Absolutely amazing! The 1/2 Greek Chicken at The Gyros Factory is one of the best meals I’ve had in Des Plaines. Perfectly seasoned, cooked on the bone, and unbelievably tender. The rice pilaf and Greek potatoes complete the plate beautifully. A must-try!“

“You can never go wrong with Luke’s!!! Everything is exceptional. They have a large menu to pick from. Some would say a large menu is bad, but it’s not, it gives you the variety to “always find something good to eat”. And…variety is the spice of life!!!

I enjoyed the Italian Beef Meal with Mozzarella Cheese, unfortunately, they put the cheese on the bottom and you can’t see it, heavily dipped, fries, extra, extra crispy and a drink. There was enough Italian beef where I could’ve made a second sandwich.“
