    Not open
    Karyn M.

    How many bites in a Burger Bite cheeseburger? I don't know because I did not finish. Let's recap. I was a little tentative to come back after the last time I came to Burger Bites and they were not open at the posted time. On this occasion the parking lot looked empty but I decided to try again. They were open with only one customer. The inside was bright and clean (overly so? Smelled medicinal?) in a diner style. I ordered a cheeseburger combo with fries and a drink. It took about 10 minutes for my order to come out. It looked very attractive with a shiny bun with the restaurant name stamped into the top bun. It was a 7 oz patty but seemed much larger as the patty was large and thin and seemed the size of a dvd (or cd-rom am I aging myself here?). It was also very messy with condiments and the meat was not juicy. It was overall decent but I could not finish it. The crinkle cut fries were hot but not crisp enough.

    Fast-casual joints specializing in griddle burgers are everywhere. This one stands a bit above the crowd. The freestanding Lincolnwood restaurant is Burger Bite's second location. Formerly a Long John Silver's, this location is larger than the Rogers Park original and has a pleasant dining room. The décor--black & white inside and out--has a slightly upscale feel. It's immaculately clean and well laid out. You order at the counter and, if you're eating in, the food is brought to your table. At present there is no outdoor seating. Restaurant owner Edgar took our order and was happy to answer our questions. The menu features several burger variations. Apart from a "Veggie Burger," there are no other plant-based sandwiches on the menu, no salads, and no coleslaw. Other sandwiches include hot dogs, a BLT, and a chicken sandwich. All of the sides--deep fried--are unabashedly listed under the "Junk Food" heading. The equally indulgent dessert menu features milkshakes and gooey rich layer cakes. Obviously DIET is a 4-letter word here! Our burgers were mouth-watering and generous in size. Served on a glazed brioche bun "branded" with the restaurant logo (a nice touch), the meat is juicy but not run-down-your-arm drippy. Seasoning plus generous toppings add umami. We both ordered waffle fries, which come seasoned. I enjoyed mine but my Missus found them too salty for her taste. The restaurant happily substituted an order of regular crinkle-cut fries with no salt. Everything was hot and fresh with minimal "grease." Overall, we found Burger Bite to be a better value than most restaurants in its category (be aware, though, that there is a fee for credit card use).

    We got a classic burger and Cowboy burger with fries. The burgers were fine but the fries looked and tasted bad. They were soggy.

    Very nice staff. Good price and variety on the lunch special. Some great free smells, and tasty food.

    I ordered carryout for lunch one day. My husband and I both got the bacon cheeseburger and waffle fries. The food was ready before I got there. I'm glad they did a whole face-lift outside and indoors because for too many years, this building still looked like LJS. The burger was good. It was juicy and cooked just right. The fried were unfortunately cold, but I'm sure it would've been different had we dined in. I'd order from them again!

    My wife and I went Yelping for a burger place, and we found this place. It had good reviews and advertised Gourmet Onion Rungs. Alas, it, in our opinion did not live up to that billing. My wife ordered the Swiss and Mushrooms burger, and said the bun was over toasted, and the burger was very salty. I ordered the Cowboy Burger, it was decent but not incredible. The fries really didn't have any flavor, and weren't crisp (they did stay in the container for 10 mins while I drove home.) The onion rings were definitely not gourmet, I'd rate them as very good frozen onion rings. Initially I was going to order on their app for in restaurant pickup. However, the Taxes and Fees seemed high for the amount of the bill. There was no information in the app stating that they were adding a surcharge (they call it a convenience fee in the restaurant.). Since I didn't know why the Taxes and fees were so high I chose to order in the restaurant. They have a sign at the register stating they add a 3.99% convenience fee. I know this is the trend at restaurants but I find it to be a turn off. There are costs to having to handle cash as well... The final reason for the 2-star rating is that Burger Bite has a rewards program, but you can only earn points if you use t

    It was a food burger and all but it was not worth the price. No wonder why it's always empty. I ordered a (forgot the name) burger without fries and it came out to $15.00. I never paid that much for a burger alone; usually it's accompanied by fries and a soft drink. They seem to have a good breakfast menu but once again the prices are absurd. I can go to my favorite pancake house and it would come out cheaper. Sorry, I don't think I will be back but by all means the burger was good but not $15 good.

    Mushroom and Swiss Burger
    Sue L.

    Stopped by the shop one day after getting my nails done across the street. The first impression was the place was neat and clean. The service was quick and the server was nice. The food come out unexpectedly good as I'm very picky with my mushroom and swiss burger. But the only thing I didn't expect was the it had lettuce and ketchup on the burger made the taste a little off but the meat was juicy. I would totally order again but probably without the ketchup next time.

    Burger Bite needed a second location. As someone who is a big fan of their Devon location, I was glad they were able to open up another. I love their polish hot dog, one of the few places that grill instead of deep fry them. The service is always quick even though things are made to order. The staff is always very kind. The restaurant is very clean, always. I don't think I have ever seen either of their locations dirty. I love Burger Bite, and I will be back soon!

    The bacon cheeseburger was possibly the best one I've ever had! So fresh and didn't fall apart like a lot of burgers do. Their buns are really high quality too. Fries were fresh and crispy. Very clean and a cute little place to eat. Also the service was quick and friendly.

    Cheeseburger (without the bun).

    I paid a visit to Burger Bite for the first time yesterday. The food was delicious, the people were friendly , the place was very clean, and it was kind of a perfect experience. I will be coming back!

Or you can order inside and eat in their dining area. I also just found out that they provide catering!

It was almost 11pm (they're open until 2am on Fridays.) and there were at least a dozen other vehicles in their drive-in stalls. Ordered their specialties, a Superdawg and Whoopskidawg with Superfries, Chocolate Super Malt and Black Kows. Service was fast and friendly at 11pm on a Friday. We were eating in our rental car in apx 10 min. It was cool to eat outside on a warm July night in a classic, 1950s style drive-in. The food was excellent, flavorful and fresh. I normally avoid krinkle cut fries because they are usually frozen and mushy or mealy. Not Superfries. These fresh cut fries were practically fried mashed potatoes. We loved them! The drinks were perfect. The Black Kows is basically a root beer float and served with an extra root beer "sidecar." Our only complaints were about errors with the garnishes. We specifically said we wanted all the garnishes on both dawgs and they only gave us the standard grilled onions on the Whoopskidawg and forgot the sport peppers on the Superdawg. Otherwise we loved everything. We might go back next week (before we fly home) because I really want to try their Whoopercheesie Burger and maybe a Supersundae.

The Chicago hot dog was exactly what I hoped for, but the surprise was the fried shrimp. Easily some of the best I've had. Crispy, flavorful, and good enough that I'd return just for the shrimp. The customer service was also excellent. They were patient, friendly, and helpful while we figured out what to order. That kind of service matters, especially when you're visiting a neighborhood spot for the first time. With its proximity to Comiskey Park, I'm sure Jeff's is no secret to Chicago locals. But it rarely shows up on the national lists telling visitors where to eat in Chicago. It should. The restaurant itself has an older, small diner feel with plenty of character. Nothing fancy or manufactured for tourists, just a longtime neighborhood spot serving really good food. Chicago has plenty of famous restaurants.

The hot dog was pretty good, fries (Crinkle cut) were also good. Place was pretty crowded. Overall, I'd eat there again, if I'm in the neighborhood, but you have a go with the special of the day, or it's expensive. The cons? Seating was very tight. We sat at a table of 4, and our backs were right on top of the person in back of us. Also, service was slow, considering it was just a hot dog, but like I said, it was busy. It's in a strip mall, so it's a little hard to find the first time.

    I am no stranger to Dear Franks of Niles; I visited it several years ago for lunch during one of my…read moresummer jobs in-between college semesters. Since then, I have off-and-on ordered from nearby restaurants yet with an interest in revisiting Dear Franks at some point. It was not until I recently discovered its veggie and plant-based items on the menu when I made it a high priority to visit, being that I am now a vegetarian. After attending training at my job which sits no more than a mile from Dear Franks, I made my visit. Its location sits along W Touhy Ave amongst a mixture of restaurants and shopping stores that are relevant to the community of Niles. I was acknowledged shortly after I walked in and up to the counter to look at the menu which was plastered above the counter. It took me some time to look at the menu because the menu online differed from the menu onsite above the counter. I had a taste for a veggie hot dog, but I did not see it featured on the menu above the counter, figuring that it was no longer an option at the time. So, I ended up ordering their veggie burger, fries, and a drink which was completed within several minutes. While paying, I could not help but notice Turano products near the register. Turano baking company, a family-owned bakery that produces authentic and delicious breads. I drive by Turano's daily enroute to my primary job and it is hard not to notice its building exterior, which has a commanding presence. Being that I have had the interest in visiting Turano's for some time now, I ended up purchasing a Turano - chocolate chunk cookie to go along with my veggie burger, fries, and drink. Maybe now after purchasing the chocolate chunk cookie, it will urge me to visit its location in Berwyn. I chose to dine-in at Dear Franks since I had plenty of time in my day, plus I figured that I still had time to beat the traffic on Edens Expressway enroute back to Chicago. The inside of Dear Franks appeared clean, and the atmosphere gave off a sporty vibe with pictures of Chicago sports teams, and iconic sporting moments in history of those teams featured. And there are a number of tables with seats available inside of the dining area, plus a television plastered on the wall near the entrance for viewing pleasure as you eat. The crinkle-cut fries were the first item I started off with eating. Though not as good as Portillo's crinkle-cut fries, ketchup certainly complimented them well. From that point on, I could not resist eating them all after the addition of ketchup. I moaned in enjoyment after my first bite of the veggie burger; it was garnished with everything I requested such as ketchup, mustard, lettuce, and tomatoes! It was very satisfying indeed. Taking note of everything I experienced: service, ambiance, and food, I have to say that it was a good experience. And with that I would gladly re-visit Dear Franks of Niles again whenever in the Niles area. Service: 4 | Ambiance: 4 | Food: 5 ~Nourish your soul. ~ Thomas G

    Review Update (Morning Visit)…read more I wanted to update my review after a different experience this morning. I've always enjoyed the food here, which is why I originally gave it 5 stars. The burgers are still great, and I've generally had positive experiences. However, during a busy morning pickup, the customer service felt disappointing. I stood at the counter waiting for my order while multiple employees made eye contact with me and walked by, but no one asked if I needed help or was picking up an order. One employee even handled my order without checking whether it belonged to me. After waiting for several minutes, I finally asked about my order. The response felt rushed and dismissive, with the focus being on how busy things were rather than helping a customer who had been standing there waiting. I completely understand that restaurants get busy, especially in the morning rush. My frustration isn't that the food took time it's that I felt ignored. A simple "We'll be right with you" or "Are you picking up an order?" would have made a huge difference. Instead, they thought I was an Uber driver that's why I was being ignored. The food is still excellent, but this experience left me feeling unwelcome compared to my previous visits.

They do have a charge card surcharge of 3%. I was given a number and my soda, so I sat down. The restaurant was a couple of steps above drab. They had Fox News on the tv, I wish they had something a little more neutral on, so I put on my headphones. The cook rang a bell and I got up to get my food. I didn't think they had table service but they do. The hot dogs, I'm assuming were finished on a flat top. The hot dogs were beefy but a little chewy, it was a natural casing dog so it was a little strange. All the toppings were fresh but they over did it on the celery salt. Even though I asked for everything, no sport peppers were put on the dogs. I was on a time crunch and would have said something but it was edible so I didn't complain to them. The fries were good. I will have to check out their broasted chicken next time.
