Burger Restaurants near River Grove

“Not slacker employees but I've got to admit the fries were lukewarm that's the worst lukewarm fries! (Jim Gaffigan right lol) I know that's just the moment of one time, one visit, so you can ignore that. The staff is on the move that's refreshing! They actually have employees unlike so many other fast food chains! Lol“

“Food very good and customer service is great“

“Hands down, got to be one of the best burgers locally. The joint is right by Tree House Records and I finally stopped by. Definitely recommend the Charly’s Fries. This is loaded!“

“Service and food is great. I found the place by accident“

“excellent food and service! great vegetarian and vegan selection as well“

“The concept for the menu is a unique trip along the Pan-American highway with stops at various Latin countries. Each dish and drink is thoughtful in its ingredients and presentation. The jicama salad was refreshing, but not at all plain. The pastel de choclo was a wonderful surprise of a warm dish. The frozen el arenal was seriously dangerous in how delicious it was, I can’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere was beautiful and the music was perfect. We are so thrilled to have this gem in the neighborhood and can’t wait to see what they do in the future!“

“Been coming here since I was a kid! I moved up north and haven’t been back in years and as God as my witness it tastes like I never left. Thank you for the nostalgia!“

“Honestly one of the best airport fast food experiences I’ve ever had. Prices were okay, menu is large, everything is made to order, staff were friendly and seemed to be having a good time. Short line, food was ready about 10 min after I ordered at the kiosk. Kiosk allows for customization. As I was leaving one of the workers asked if I wanted a free order of onion rings since they made some that didn’t get picked up. So rings, dog, and drink for about $15? Hard to get that kind of deal at the airport!“

“First , the smoke and aroma comin’ out the roof exhaust pipes . Lol 😛 Known for their hamburgers , dogs , apparently everything else on their menu is good . Being a member of Chicago Italian Beefs fB page , I just HAD to try theirs . Pretty darn good ! 9.0/10 Sweet n hot , dipped , nice crinkly fries 🍟 comin’ for da ride , and a tamale 🫔 to wash it down . Nice job guys at the PP in Des Plaines !!!“

“I've driven by the place for a year and kept thinking I should drop in. Finally stopped for a slice last month, and went back to try their smash burger just recently.

Love the place. They have excellent food and a kicky little interior, but I loved chatting with the owner as he made my food. One of the owners, at least. Anyway, curious to try their other offerings, and happy to meet a local small business owner and find them to be just good people. To me, that has more impact than the menu. But the menu is worth the trip, all the same!

I know the owner reads these reviews, so I say thank you for your excellent efforts. It's not a small thing to feed strangers food made with care and love, and it matters to some of us when we see it. Nothing but the best to you, my friend.“

“Food was delicious, wish they would’ve offered a box for the rest of my fries though instead of tossing them. Would like to come back again to try more of their burgers“

“Just had the best burger - I love the special sauce, and the buns were super soft and fresh. The mango jalapeno wings were great mix of spicy and sweet. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. The prices are very reasonable. Can't wait to go back and try the chicken sandwich.“

“Decided to stop in after seeing how long their line was at Taste of Chicago. Just a rock solid Burger place. Had the Merktz cheese burger, and I quite enjoyed it. I don't have too much much more to say about this place. Its worth the stop“

“The Stop a Long did not disappoint. Amazing burgers and fun atmosphere. out server Jack was great. thank you for a great experience“

“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!!!“

“I had to try it today before going back to FL delicious 😋.“

“🔥 Highly Recommended! Flame On Peri Peri is hands down one of the best spots for flavorful, juicy peri peri chicken! The spice levels are just right, the portions are generous, and the service is fast and friendly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or dining with family, this place never disappoints. Don’t miss the loaded fries and their signature sauces — 10/10!“

“A rocking little joint with a music-first vibe. Try them for Last Tuesday Harmonica Meetup night. Maybe you'll win the raffle!“

“We absolutely loved this place! The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the smashburgers; they were incredibly tasty and cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor in every bite. I ordered the passion fruit margarita at ut was perfect. We can’t wait to return!“

“We had the best lunch. Our food was tasty and hot, not to mention generously delicious. No wait, great help. Open kitchen. I hope they open one further southwest.“

“Food is all homemade ... chilliques are so good with red sauce To die for... The burgers are HUGe.... so delicious.... the fries are like no others and I personally never order fries. So they have to be good.... I did substitute the salad for the fries and was blown away how tasty it was... I mean I'm talking salad right!! Please come visit this beautiful restaurant and tast the real homemade goodness.“

“I got the combination plate, it was a lot of food and everything was 🔥 they also gave me a scoop of hummus to try which was also good“

“Great food and even better people! Cajun fries are a family favorite! Ryan came to my rescue after a delivery driver made a mistake. He came to the hospital where I was staying with a sick kiddo and delivered my gluten free order himself. True customer service!! :) Will be back!!“

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

“Ate at Big Sauce and they had some of the best wings I’ve ever eaten. Loved the “original” flavor the most.“

“My FAVORITE grilled chicken sandwich! Everything is amazing! Highly recommend!“

“Dance vibes and good food.. recommend the fish tacos“

“Great food! Great people! Forget Raising Canes, Chubbies is better in every way. Location is great on a beautiful “Main Street” America type setting. Amazing chicken sandwiches and tenders with generous portions and great prices“

“Amazing food! Delicious drinks! Beautiful views. Fantastic staff! Highly recommend!!“

“Food was great! I ordered the 20pc meal deal traditional wings with cajun fries for 2-3 ppl + a side of mac&cheese. Buffalo lemon pepper and sweet chili were delicious! Really great wing spot. Just very bummed that I did not receive my mac&cheese in my order…would’ve loved to try it and didn’t think I’d have to double check to make sure I got all that I ordered :/ Only reason I didn’t give this place 5 stars..“

“My girlfriend and I found this place 5 days ago and decided to come back for lunch. We really enjoyed the onion soup, onion rings and steak sandwich, and chili. Lynn was very friendly and shared some interesting ghost stories and the story about the 1961 plane crash in the cornfield. The food, service, and atmosphere were all great. It feels like visiting an old family place, and it’s definitely worth the drive! No-wait at all!“

“It was our first time and hands down super adorable! We got cheeseburger with fries, Mac and cheese, onion rings and some soda. Everything took less than 30 minutes. All servers were super attentive and checked in periodically. The trains were super cute! My kiddos looked forward to the train bringing food! Will definitely be back for round 2.“

“Excelente servicio y el sabor de la comida ni se Diga 😋🤤🌮🌮🌮🌮“

“A pleasant neighborhood brewery, bar, and restaurant. We generally order burgers or fish and chips, and enjoy a local beer with our meal. We ordered soft pretzels for our ap, which came with two amazingly good dpping sauces - yum!
Great casual spot.“

“Amazing service and taste! (Westlawn location)“

“Another great lunch!
Usually i get the burger no cheese, definitely a good choice. Today i opted for the Italian beef (made in house) wow! So good. Got it slightly dipped so it still held together.
Flavors were delicious. Fries cruspy and fresh as always.“

“Great food and super friendly staff“

“This place is amazing no matter your age!! My peeps from England loved it!!!! So much had to goo back a 2nd time before going bk home. Food was Lovely a long with the beverages and of course the train!!! Great service and great food 💯“

“If you are looking for an incredible dining experience that perfectly balances amazing flavor with high-quality ingredients, HALAL PIZZA POINT is an absolute must-visit. They manage to deliver an outstanding variety of options that keep you coming back for more.
​The crust strikes the perfect balance of crispy on the outside and wonderfully chewy on the inside, serving as the ideal foundation for their fresh toppings and flavorful sauce. Beyond the classic favorites, their specialty pies feature beautifully seasoned meats that set them apart from standard pizza spots.
​The service is consistently warm, welcoming, and prompt, making you feel right at home whether you are picking up a quick takeout order or dining in with family. For anyone seeking delicious, premium halal options, this spot truly hits the mark!“

“flaming hot chicken is legit 🔥, I will die over this“

“Hey my Chicago peeps you all have to go by SMASHBUGER at 4709 west foster and say HI to two of the greatest managers in town Mrs Genesis. And Mrs Dee Dee. For the freshest and I mean the freshest Smashburger this side of town tell them the BIG O SENT YOU ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😎 Guy’s“

“The chicken kabob dinner is a must-try when really hungry, and the grilled chicken pita is a go-to for a quick meal!“

“Great food! fast service for carryout!“

“This place is awesome. Tried their smash burgers I ordered the Pleaser which comes with grilled onions and was delicious. You can’t go wrong pairing one with an ice-cold Hamm's, but they also have a great selection of cocktails and a solid variety of draft beers! Got some garlic cheese curds and fries on the side, and everything hit-the-spot. On top of that, the service was outstanding.“

“This used to be our absolute favorite spot. My friends and I would come here several times a week, and we loved the familiar faces on the staff. Sadly, things have drastically changed for the worse. ​We noticed the staff began turning over constantly, and after speaking with some of the remaining employees, we found out why: the owner is reportedly keeping 40% of the servers' tips. Under Illinois law, tips belong entirely to the staff, and an owner taking a cut is entirely illegal. ​It breaks our heart to walk away from a place we loved, but our group has decided to take our business to other local spots that actually respect and support their employees. We won't be back until management corrects this and treats their staff fairly.“

“Stopped by after a late shift hoping they were still open, and was greeted with a warm welcome from Stan who was cleaning up the place doing a good job! Good food, good drinks, GREAT service!! Thank you Stan, will definitely be stopping by and trying other burgers out!“

“It’s such a warm and welcoming place! ❤ The shashlik was absolutely delicious—juicy, fresh, and clearly made with care. I also loved the cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Everything was wonderful, and I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend! 🥰✨“
