47 Best Burger Restaurants near Thornton

“Haven’t had it in awhile, was driving past and decided to stop. So delicious I stopped the next day too!!!! The only problem I had the second stop was one of my buns was too soggy, but the other 3 dogs were perfect!!!“

“I really like the burgers. They are way better and don't cost an arm and a leg like that other burger place in Highland. Everyone that works there seems friendly. My waitress, Karen, was super fast and seemed really nice.“

“great food. Great service.great prices. the gyros are fire. Will be a regular place for me from now on“

“First time trying Retro Burger, & we loved it! We ordered burgers, cheese fries, & mozzarella sticks. Awesome food, really nice workers, & quick pick up! Will definitely be coming here more often.“

“Love the Manzo’s Burgers!!“

“That Ribeye Steak Sandwich is absolutely amazing! 🔥🔥🔥“

“I recently moved into the area and had a gift card for schoops so i decided to stop in for lunch on a weekday afternoon. I had the schoops mickey which I'm not sure what the difference is between that and just a normal cheeseburger. Service was nice from the ladies. Atmosphere is like a retro diner. The place was well kept which makes me think they intend to keep that vibe going. At the time of this review, I paid about $18 for the burger, small fries, and a coke. That's not including tip. It's certainly not a place for the budget minded.“

“this place is amazing! the food is cooked to serve, fresh, and delicious! the staff is so friendly and attentive! And the atmosphere is a blast from the past! John's Blue Top Drive-in is absolutely a must try! you'll fall in love with this place! We did!“

“Great BBQ… amazing burgers“

“Excellent fresh home cooked food!! And so many Vegan options it was almost too hard to choose! Thank you for a lovely lunch with my girls. We will be back for sure.“

“This was my 1st time at Schoops, St John In., location. The food was fresh, and the waitress was excellent. 😋 The tuna melt was delicious, I asked for pickles, and she brought me some on the side. Yum! This is one of the few food establishments that I know of, (🤔maybe the only) that has/dispenses *Green River as a soda on their menu! 💚 My son loves the stuff!!! He drank 2-glasses with his freshly made burger and fries. #Delish“

“Fast, fresh and friendly! Great atmosphere and just to watch the team work preparing food fresh is worth the visit 👍“

And the waitress was so friendly. It was.a' great place to sit and eat. I' give it a' 5star* mz Pearl?“

“Went with the kiddos. First time to this location. Very cool set up. Jada (?) was very very attentive and took care of us. Looks like she was running the show by her self for front end. Food was good and very hot. I only take away one star because my root beer float was a little light. When I visit the one on Ridge Road in Munster they provide the float with additional pop and ice cream. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with that location having the cold ice ream bar in the other side, but I did feel slightly short changed and wanting more..
But location just cool and appreciated the excellent service.“

“Good food. Cash only. No extra taxes. Just bring the exact amount on the menu. I uploaded updated prices of the menu items as of January 2026.

I get my food and get out of there. I usually only come morning time and early afternoon. I'm not sure how night time is. It's dolton after all. Not a terrible place but it's not the best place either.

There is a ATM located right outside if you don't got cash.“

“Food was excellent!! Prices Excellent!! Will be back!“

“Really great customer service! Sauce are good. My favorite was korean Asian. This place is a must try.“

“I ordered yesterday, and the staff was exceptional. I go to 5 Guys because they are the only fast food chain without 20 ingredients listed for every menu item. The staff was courteous, knowledgeable, and kind. Everyone seemed happy to be there. 🤸🏾‍♀️“

“Paisan’s is my go to since moving to Naperville. I came from Evergreen Park, so I’m used to better pizza than most places I’ve tried. Paisan’s has been the only place that has been great across the board!“

“I was awake early in the morning and needed some quick breakfast ASAP! Decided to swing by the Burger King drive-thru just minutes away from where I live. I ordered two croissan'wich(s) with sausage and a medium hashbrown. It turned out to be a tasty meal! The hashbrowns were crispy and the bread very fluffy. For a $7 meal, I am a happy camper!“

“Their amazing cheeseburger. My favorite of all time.“

“Came through the drive thru Saturday evening late....about a half hour before they closed. The girl who took our order was so sweet and polite. It was nice to hear someone be so kind and seem to love their job still so much despite all the craziness going on with places being short staffed. Our food was all correct and hot. I told the girl how she made my day and she was so thankful...definitely a great employee and someone they need to keep around. Keep up the good work!!“

“They have the best cheeseburger in Chicago. I went there in 2012, and 2013 on Kedzie, and omg it’s the best. I used to live in Highland Indiana and I took public transportation which it was GPTC bus to Downtown Hammond, and pace bus from Downtown Hammond Indiana to Downtown Harvey Illinois, and pace 349 from Harvey Transportation Center to 111th and Western, and CTA Route #112 bus from 111th and Western to 111th and Kedzie. Well now since I finally move to Chicago Auburn Gresham with my fiancé, and now I live 15 minutes away. I take 79th Street bus from 79th and Ashland to 79th and Kedzie, and transfer to CTA Route #52A Southbound and go all way to 111th and Kedzie. I’m even more glad you guys reopened which I had no idea where you guys relocated at Thanks to my friend Tracy for telling me where it is. I went there with my fiancé Raymon. I’m so glad you guys are amazing, and the service was great too. I’ll be back. This place is even very affordable.“

“The service today at Red Robin was absolutely outstanding. The workers went above and beyond for Veteran’s Day. They had a backdrop for photos, letter making for service members, a remembrance table set up, management went table to table to show appreciation and give a gift, and all of the staff was just amazing. This was our first time visiting this location in probably about 8 years, but we will definitely be back more often. I also have to mention that the burgers were delicious 🙂 Thank you!“

“I have been to this location a few times now, and the food is always out quick, hot, and fresh! The new building is nice and is a great addition to the area. My one and only complaint is that every time I do a mobile order they don’t give me any napkins. However, seeing as this is seeming to become the new industry standard it’s hard to fault them too hard for that.“

“Very clean“

“I just purchased ice cream for my family from the drive through. I know they close in 1 hour. EVERY SINGLE staff member who helped me was amazing, polite, helpful, and smiling! The customer service is fantastic!! Keep it up Culver’s in Crestwood. I appreciate the wonderful service!!“

“This is the best Dairy Queen around. Friendly staff with fast service and no screwed up orders. Everything here is 20-40% cheaper than the St John and Schererville locations. A box of 6 dilly bars cost $8.99 in Dyer. A box of dilly bars in St. John cost $17.99 and $16.99 in Schererville. The Schererville store ice cream quality is terrible, the blizzards are watery every time ive been there and ive been there around 20 times“

“Their beer cheese soup is amazing! I had it at Gordon Ramseys place downtown and the soup here is better! It’s worth a trip just for that and the bread and better alone!“

“I felt like at home with the best service and most excellent tasty food. Everything I have eaten from here was tasty. Top tier. Chef's kiss. Y'all won't be disappointed. The owner and waitress make u feel right at home with good southern eats made to ur liking. Joana is the waitress with the long ponytail is the best server. Definitely a hit 20/10“

“Pretty good menu. Lots of grilled cheeses and at first I was skeptical but it really is flavorful. My favorite monthly sandwich I wish could be turned into a standard sandwich is the cubano. Loaded tots are also very good.“

“My family has been there a few times and the food is delicious. Always fresh. Just love the food“

“You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu but if you’ve never had one, you need to try their cheeseburger.“

“well I'm really torn on if I should recommend or not... most of the time the food is fine but when it comes to fundraisers they are really really horrid. let's put a box out and not put anything on the box so the majority of the people have no idea about tossing their receipts in there for a cause... im pretty sure they make enough money where they can put something on the boxes for the customers... if they are so scared about losing money don't even bother... yesterday I was there around 4 and not one person threw a receipt in the box.. I was the first.... second fundraiser and second time unless you already knew, had no idea about it.. .“

“The food was delicious and the service was great. I attend often and will continue.😋😋🤗“

“FOOD WAS AMAZING … CLEAN AND FRIENDLY.. ❤️❤️🙌🏼🙌🏼“

“Mini blizzards were good. Got Oreo and brown batter.
$4 regular onion rings came with literally only 4 onion rings. $1/ring is crazy so that’s the only feedback. Will say they were nice and crispy tho but still either overpriced, but more likely the gentleman serving out too few on accident.“

“The food is delicious! The man that took my order for 300 wings was the nicest guy ever. He went out of his way to make sure my order was correct and I was satisfied. Not only that but the wings were delicious. Well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I’ll always choose wings galore from here on out“

“Ooh' myy' goodness.my husband and I' went back too jimmy's.

“The menu would surprise you the way you can combine traditional mexican dishes with a pizza but i had tried the majority and i would say all of them are really good! Not only the pizzas but wings, fries, etc. I had order for catering and the service is as great as the food. This is a place i can recomment to anyone. Definitely check out the menus variety. 🔥🔥🔥“

“Great food decent prices will definitely be back!!♥️“

“Excellent food always, clean, great service“

“Love Joeys Red Hots Chicago Dog“

“We ordered the cod dinner on 1/29 and it was delicious. However, when we sat down in a booth we noticed an elderly lady struggling to walk up the icy sidewalk from the parking lot. When the young man brought our food we told him about it and suggested someone spread salt on the area. He was nice and thanked us for mentioning it. However, in the 45 minutes we sat there no one followed through and actually salted the sidewalk. Not good, Culvers.“

“Got off work knowing I’d need something fast. So I did curd side pick up. I was 10 minutes early but they got it out lickity spilt!!“
