“Sooo good. Served quickly and fresh liked it wet but bun not falling all apart, perfect!“

“So I go inside to get a chance to stretch my legs and pick up my online order that had been placed 5 minutes prior. I'm inside and show the CSR my mobile order confirmation. She looks like a deer lost in the headlights. She runs to the rear and drops a order of onion rings in the grease. A few minutes later I have my order in the bag and in my hand and walking out the door. I resume my driving only a mile away only to discover the onion rings are half cooked. I was too far away to return. I hope the establishment will take better precautions, what if this was a beef burger, or a chicken breast, etc. Accuracy is far better than efficiency.“

“Ready friendly service. I ordered a Philly Chicken sandwich with fries. It was not noted that the sandwich was made with mushrooms, but after receiving it I noticed it had mushrooms. I am allergic so I returned the sandwich and they made me a fresh one. My only complaint is that that sandwich would have been superb with honey mustard. Please add honey mustard to your condiment offerings!“

“Great food! Even better service! Shout out to Lynn, she was absolutely a delight! Helped me out with my order. I was overwhelmed by the choices and she helped me narrow them down. I got to admit, while I was dilly dallying she didn’t even rush me and encouraged me to follow my heart! Such a good vibe. Left with a bag full of good food and a beaming smile on my face!“

“Amazing as always! 🤘🏼burgers mac n beers“

“I have ordered from here before and really enjoyed the food. I accidentally placed another order twice today and they called me immediately to rectify the situation. I was a general manager of restaurants for 21 years and this was exceptional customer service when a lot of places would have just taken my money. I really appreciate the extra mile and it's because of situations like this that make me a repeat customer. I will be back and if you haven't tried their pizza, you should!“

“excellent service the food is very delicious especially the wings They are our favorites now they are much than those of the BWW“

“Today, my family and I held a memorial service and had food catered from Johnny B’s. Everything was absolutely perfect. The food was outstanding, with every dish prepared to perfection and made with love. All the guests were so happy! The staff at Johnny B’s truly went above and beyond, providing service that was both professional and heartfelt. Their care and attention made a meaningful difference on this important day. Not to mention the cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere they maintain at their restaurant. Johnny B’s holds a special place in my heart, and today’s experience reinforced why. Thank you for making this day so memorable and perfect!“

“Tried "Smash It" today, and it definitely lived up to its name! The moment I walked in, the aroma of sizzling patties and fresh buns had me hooked. The burgers were the perfect blend of crispy edges and juicy interiors. Their "Smash it double cheese burger " was a game-changer—simple yet packed with flavor. If you’re on the hunt for a burger that’s both nostalgic and innovative, "Smash It" should be your next stop. ?“

“I really enjoy this restaurant. The food is delicious and the waitresses efficient and helpful. Great place to try . Don’t let the construction in front dissuade you there is plenty of parking.“

“We recently enjoyed a meal here, which offers Zabiha Halal options. Our order consisted of:

1. Tornado fries
2. Burgers
3. Nashville tenders
4. Jalapeño poppers

*The Verdict*

1. The burgers and fries were delicious.
2. The Nashville tenders were spicy and tasty.
3. The jalapeño poppers, although likely frozen, were satisfactory.

*Ambiance and Service*

The atmosphere and service were also commendable.Recommended for those seeking Halal dining options!“

“5 stars for HECTOR in Western Springs!!! Hands down this was the absolute best dining experience I’ve ever had! While the food was delicious and the overall ambiance and decor of the restaurant was cozy, it was our server that made this dining experience over the top, great! HECTOR, you are a gem, a diamond! You have an absolutely charming personality and made my mother in law’s birthday dinner an experience to remember! From your spot on suggestions, to your lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday”, to the funny banter, our whole family left talking about how wonderful you were! We will be back and we will be sure to come when you are serving! Thank you Hector!!!“

Mac and cheese.. amazing. If you like chicken you need to go here! Tender, juicy, FRESH and so flavorful! Thank you for showing me what I have been missing!“

“stopped in from the rain and grabbed a mini beef and fries...7.95...great price. beef sandwich is exactly what you want from a local beef joint. great casual service. Sox game on....(rain delay lol) I just got into town from Florida and after you leave midway it's about a 15 minute drive...awesome location in a great area! 👍 👌 Thanks for the great experience Beefys!“

“The Best! The best fries, the best steak sandwich, the best hamburgers, the best everything!“

“Small, clean location with a small bar. Looks like it's set up for karaoke too. The gentleman who took my order was very polite. He also helped in the kitchen. The menu featured Korean and American food.I wanted wings but I had chicken twice the day before so I went with the Kicken Burger with bacon instead. It was $16 for a combo, which seems a little high but the time I spend in the area the more I learn it's about average.I got to watch them cook the burger patties on the flat top and then give them a nice char grill. It was huge, almost overpowered by all of the toppings. A big slice of grilled onion, a hunk of tomato, lettuce, bacon... I had to remove some of it to enjoy the burger.The burger itself was well seasoned and tasty with a grilled bun and good sauce. Yes, the sauce was kickin' it a little bit.It came with standard crinkle fries but they were crisp and there were lots of them. More than I could finish.“

“Love this place. I've been here a few times. The hot chicken sandwich, nachos, and fries are always great. This most recent visit I tried a double smashburger with smash peppers, spicy chopped cheese, and onion rings. The burger was probably the best smashburger I ever had, the beef and bun tasted really fresh, burger patties were crispy and seasoned, and the sauce went really well with it. The chopped cheese was really good, and onion rings were crispy, hot, and seasoned. Highly recommend this place. Everything I've had there is good.“

“Went there with few of my friends just to try out, wasnt really starving but just wanted to try out. Food was A+, service was good as well, staff was nice, dine in area was very clean. I would definitely recommend Falmes On Peri Peri. At least it wouldnt hurt to try it out. Its 100% Zabiha Halal. They have Sharia Board Approved certificate for a year of expiration date(writing this in Oct 2022).“

“We went with a group of friends and what an amazing experience it was! The fact that this place offers everything zabiha halal makes it even more amazing. We had cheese burgers, bahn mei, fries of all sorts and different types of wings. Would highly recommend!“

“On August 16, 2024 my dear friend Eberta Wright celebrated her 103 birthday. We celebrated it at The Lazy Dog Restaurant in the Highlands were we used to go for lunch every Sunday after church. Our waiter was always Carlos. One Sunday he told me to let him know when she was to celebrate her next birthday because he wanted to do something special for her. I called him and told him it was here so he talked to his manager and WOW!!!!! Kyla, Alexa, Andrea and Carlos put together a spectacular birthday celebration. Mrs. Wright and I both were so surprised and delighted with what they did. The decorations, the gorgeous flowers the cupcakes that Kyla made and decorated to spell out her birth year. Everything was just wonderful. Carlos came in on his day off and got to have lunch with us. He is a very special young man. In fact everyone there is very special. The Lazy Dog will always be my number one restaurant not just because of the good food but because they are a group of very special people.“

“Amazing, you got to try this place.“

“If you get overstimulated, do NOT come here. Train sounds, kids cackling, and loud voice abound! That being said, we have been twice with my toddler for lunch and have had fun each time. Bring quarters to use the horse and bus rides while you wait for a seat. The staff have always been super nice and attentive, and the burgers and chicken sandwich are pleasantly delicious. I’m appalled they sell $7 servings of Kraft Mac and cheese, but shame on us for ordering it every time ? I’ve never had room for dessert, but most tables order a dessert at the end. Choo choo is a wonderful asset to the area.“

“Alhamdulillah Burgers n Fries were so good. So juicy and just melted in your mouth. Service was fast and food was very fresh. Restaurant was clean but not the cleanest also atmosphere and environment was little dull.
Jazakallah for the food. Will def go again and refer to family n friends“

“Went there in the afternoon for late breakfast. Food was excellent ...service was crap..Waittress brought out my friend's food and didn't bring out all of my food till I was halfway through my meal. When I told a waitress she said that the kitchen was behind on putting orders out but I was there a 1/2 hour before they close? Food was excellent and a large amount and plan on taking leftovers home.

Parking: Probably at least 80 to 100 parking spots.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“1st time trying this place in Des Plaines and I must say that the bumper fries, bumper chicago style hotdog, chicken tenders with the honey mustard sauce which was great paired together and the bumper burger was all amazing 😋 👌 Definitely a must try🙌 I also like that it's all Halal meat so it's never frozen always fresh ❤️“

“A nice little fast food joint off of Dempster and Gross Point Rd. They serve up lots of good and intetesting pizza, wraps, burgers and more. All of their food is Zabiha halal certified.

Keep in mind there are no tables to eat inside, this is a takeout/carryout only place.

I recommend Chicken 65 wrap, Malai Chicken wrap, and Meat Lovers pizza.“
