17 Best Burger Restaurants near North Utica

“Arrived around two o’clock on a Monday afternoon. It was a warm and beautiful fall day so we chose to sit outside. It was busier than normal for a Monday, but we weren’t in a hurry anyway. The wait staff worked hard. I ordered the breaded pork tenderloin. My wife ordered the chicken strips. Each entree came with fries. Mine came with lettuce, onion, tomato slice, and pickles. Unfortunately, there were so many french fries that most of the onion, the slice of tomato, and the pickles were all buried, as you can see in the photo. I didn’t even realize they were there until I had eaten some of the fries. The fries were kind of bland, there was no seasoning on them at all. The breaded pork tenderloin was delicious and quite large. The chicken tenders entree was more than enough for my wife, so we brought it home along with half of the breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. Bottom line, I would eat there again, but I only gave it four stars because the french fries covered up the toppings for my sandwich. Attention to detail people!“

“On a mini pub crawl, and this was our last stop. Service was quick as there were only 4 friendly patrons at the bar. The decor was very inviting. We didn't eat anything, so I can't comment on the food.
Such a friendly little town.“

“My girlfriend and I had to wait 20 minutes for our drinks, which normally I wouldn’t be to bothered by but I’ve been on the road for the last 15 hours and have been a tad bit moody. The one guy (who helped with front but wasn’t the teenager) was very polite. They were pretty busy but he had a great attitude. Give him a raise cause he deserves it :)“

“I have been to Wahlburgers twice now and both times the food was EXCELLENT. Today, however, takes the cake. When I arrived and looked for what I wanted on the menu it wasn't there. I spoke with Ben behind the counter and he told me that specific item had been removed from the menu. I was visibly disappointed so he told me he would make it up for me! He said he may not have the exact dressing but he could pull something together. I was so excited and incredibly thankful because he did NOT have to do that. He went above and beyond and I thanked him again and again. The food was fresh, everything tasted delicious and I will definitely go back again!

Vegetarian options: My salad was a street corn salad. It included romaine lettuce, chopped up red and green pepper, parmesan cheese and shredded cheddar cheese with a delicious dressing.“

“Went to dinner at Uptown last week with a couple of friends, and everything was great as always! The restaurant was pretty busy for a Tuesday night, but we were seated right away without a reservation. Our server, Tracy H, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Uptown is definitely one of the best restaurants in the Illinois Valley. The food is always consistent, and the service is excellent no matter how busy they are. Whether you're visiting or new to the area, Uptown is a must-try. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Best homemade sandwiches in town. Fast service, great staff.“

“This is my Husband's and Mines second time at Jorge's and we highly recommend this place! We ordered their chicken and skirt steak fajitas each time! They are probably one if the best fajitas meals we ever had, no joke, hands down! The meat is so moist and rhe vegetables so fresh and vibrant! Please try this place out! You won't be disappointed!“

“Love this place. It’s a lil lunch time shop at this location. Ofcorse you’ve got to get the Chicago dog but a lot of people like the Nashville Louisville and Memphis dog. Expect to spend about $12 for 2 dogs fries and a drink (can vary) but it’s well worth the spend with fast service time good food and an easy in and out atmosphere.“

“Stopped in to have lunch with my wife. I had a Chicken Parm sandwich , it was so awesome, the flavor and everything about lunch was great, service, atmosphere and all, highly recommend“

“10/10 pretzel was great; and so were boneless wings! 🎊“

“Great, old school diner. Places like this are why we moved out of the city. The food was good and the people there are very nice. Will be going back again, hopefully for years to come. ☺“

“Best of the best service from Christy 👌“

“I normally love Culvers. It is the only fast food I eat. Today it was horrible. Fries were not fried properly. They were a gooey mess. My burger was not cooked in the middle. Threw it out and their food is not inexpensive. Waste of money and I'm still hungry. I will go back and if it isn't back to normal that will be my last time. Too bad. We have had a good relationship for many years.“

“Great and fast service . Very friendly good food and shakes are amazing“

“Very nice relaxing environment. The bartenders are kind and the crowd that goes there regularly are very calm and friendly. I've been there 4 times nothing but good experiences not only from staff but patron alike.“

“By far one of the BEST, IHOP's aka U-JUMPS, (because I personally do not like to HOP, therefore U-Jump). Sounds better in person..Anywho, The food was literally still steaming when it arrived. This particular IHOP has regained my faith local breakfast chains. For once, the food actually WAS worth the price.
Our server, I think her name was Kelly. Anyway she was absolutely perfect!!.“

“I hope I'm spelling her name right. Tamberlynn was a great help
Went through drive through. Ordered my usual coffee. It was oddly cold. Went in, greeted with a smile. Brought the issue up. She Apologized for the inconvenience. Got me a fresh coffee. All while helping other staff with orders for drive through and customers at the counter. If she isn't a shift lead or manager. She should be. Handling so many tasks while busy and keeping a calm/positive attitude is rare anymore. Thank you for the great service!“
