12 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Palatine

“****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.“

“Great food. One of my favorite places best sandwich is 5 on rosemary bread.“

“My God. In a world where people are chins on food, I opened up my chicken pita and found an explosion of delicious seasoned chicken. It was plenty full in fact I had to use a fork to finish it. I couldn’t believe how tender it was and how friendly the service was. A real tree to find a restaurant that still cared.“

“Delicious food, friendly & speedy service :) I asked them to cook the turkey bacon on my avocado toast a bit more and they quickly and graciously crisped it up for me. They also have the best hash browns around. Get your own hot sauce/ketchup/etc condiments in the attached Pride convenience store“

“Fresh and delicious food. Nice to have a halal restaurant in Palatine.“

“best gyros! fries changed over the years, they soak up too much oil.“

“I stopped at the drive-thru around 11:00 p.m. yesterday (11/01/25). The guy who took my order was very polite. When I ordered some tenders, he told me it would take about five minutes to make some. He asked if I wanted to wait. I said I did. When the guy brought out my order he apologized for the wait and told me he included a couple extra tenders because of the inconvenience.

This is EXACTLY the kind of service a customer wants. Five stars.

Night shift manager: please tell the guys who were working last night that they did a great job for one of their customers--give them a spiff if you can.“

“My 2 1/2 year old grandson and I had lunch there today. The staff treated us with kindness and good service! We also enjoyed the beautiful fish pond!“

“I came into the shop with two adults with special needs. One of the owners took our orders. I forgot to ask her, her name. She took the time to ask the individuals I was with about what kind of meat they liked. She asked them if they liked pepperoni? They do. She suggested a sandwich for them, and they both said yes. She asked them if they wanted their sandwiches toasted, then she said do you want your sandwiches hot or cold. The individual understood her verbiage, and said hot, and the other individual said cold. She pointed to all the toppings that could go on their sandwiches. She did this one by one, and the individuals had the choice to what they wanted on their sandwich, instead of not having a choice. They both ordered chips, cookies, and a drink. She went to the fountain machine with their cups, and pointed out to each of the selection of soda’s. Again, giving them a choice. She even asked if they wanted ice, she took the time to fill up the drinks for them, and brought their drinks to where we were sitting. She even helped bring them their sandwich’s to the table. The individuals wanted chocolate chip cookies, but they were not done yet. She told us, it was going to take 20 minutes to be done, and asked us if we wanted to wait for them? When they were done, she brought them to us. I didn’t get a chocolate chip cookie, but she gave me a free one. I thanked her for her big heart, her kindness. I thought she didn’t look at the individuals as less than human, or stare at them like they were different. I gave her a side hug. She left out, and another staff member asked us how everyone was doing? I told him about how pleased I was with the owner. He told me he was the owner too, and that was his wife. I thought how amazing for a husband and wife to be so loving! His name is Monty. I will never forget how the individuals felt, and how I felt with the amount of patience and kindness coming from them, because honestly, I feel you always remember how someone made you feel, and I feel with the way the world is now, and for Monty and his wife to go above and beyond with no hesitation, says a lot about this store. Even their son was sitting at one of the tables, talking with another customer. He seemed so polite from what I observed. I am a loyal person, and I live in Palatine, and I love subway. Honestly, I’m not going to go to another subway restaurant. The store was very clean, and they bathroom were spotless. I could tell they took pride in their work and their store, just to show me how much they appreciated their customers. Monty and his wife lol thank you so much. The one individual, kept asking me yesterday when we got back to their house, if I left the review yet, and asked what I was going to say? 🥰❤️ I would have given them a trillion stars if that was an option. 🤣 Thank you and please don’t hesitate to go to this subway“

“Most everyone is very pleasant to deal with except the one guy at the drive thru. No idea his name, but I went thru on 3/6/26 at 3pm approx….. very rude and dismissive. Frozen Coke taste horrible also. I think they need to clean their machine!!!!“

“That guy Timothy that left a review must be pretty ignorant. The owner of the franchise doesn't work their not is he a cashier. Dirty hands pouring drinks? Did he inspect the persons hands? Sometimes people just need to vent and be keyboard warriors. Anyway, this location is always clean and the service is usually fast but they are also short staffed cause no one wants to work anywhere. People doesn't realize that they also have to fill DoorDash and UberEATS and GrubHub orders. So please people, give them a break when your order is taking a while. Low on employees and mobile orders come in on the fly.“

“I was waiting for my money to come in an app to order some burgers and while the money hadn't come yet the workers here made my food then proceeded to wait the couple mins I had asked for in order to get money on my card to grab the burgers. Great food. I been coming here for 20 years and Everytime I have never gotten anything bad food wise. The workers here are always nice. I appreciate you guys.

Signed the weirdo ordering burgers at nine o'clock at night. I appreciate y'all for real. Keep up the awesome work you guys and girls.“
