Cajun seasoned, single burger.
Tayshia K.

Are you craving a REAL burger? Burger City will not disappoint! Trust me I know from experience because this was my first time here and I will be coming back. I order a Cajun Fry & a Cajun burger (lettuce, tomato, onion, pepper jack cheese and cajun seasoning beef patty-spicy*). I balanced it out with a fruit cup (usually comes with pineapple as well). The burger was not super greasy but it was also not dry as looks due to the cajun rub seasoning lol good medium. I like my burgers medium well this one looked perfectly well done so I had no complaints. Bun amazing and buttery, all veggies are fresh. The fries are fantastic enough to get its own paragraph in this review ;). They come with ranch. 10 out 10 recommend. I should have gotten a double, It was so good.

First, the food...the Hawaiian burger was tasty. The Texas burger lacked some heat but was good. The burgers were good sized, juicy and well seasoned. The Cajun fries were HOT, like I need another soda to get these down. Skip the sweet potato fries and just get the regular ones. Pretty typical burger spot. I'd love to give them higher marks but the bathroom floor was nasty and there were puddles of water in the restaurant. Service was okay.

Egg That Burger
Lou L.

Ok, this place is nothing to look at. A burger joint in a strip mall. Counter service, a few tables with cheap plastic table cloths, styrofoam boxes, and plastic forks. I'm not coming here for date night. But I am coming back for the burgers! The gentleman behind the counter was polite and served up my burger quickly. I got the Egg That Burger, and he substituted provolone for American cheese at my request. And I can't recall when I had a burger this good! I'm sure I have, but it's been so long that i can't recall where. And I'm sure it was someplace a lot more expensive. But be prepared, the burgers are all messy. Very messy. I drove home with egg yolk and ketchup on my glasses. But the flavor is well worth it.

Fries and Beef Bacon Cheese Burger
Oscar R.

Stopped by this place for a quick lunch since I was working down the street. I ordered the burger with beef bacon meal. Service was good, Burger Appearance was very good but the overall taste was okay. In my opinion this burger fall in between McDonald's and Portillo's. Everything was good but even the fries but it's nothing like a big fat greasy burger that you would find at a real burger joint. Would I come back. Not really.

Cheese Burger
Jodi S.

I really enjoyed the fries, a little salt and pepper and they were a 9/10 for me. The burger was just ok. Nothing crazy. 6/10 Mozz sticks were solid. 7/10 The two people working were very friendly and polite. Store was clean and organized.

Beyond Burger Combo
Steve A.

Anyone who likes burgers should come here and get any burger. Burger City is very surprisingly good in spite of not having a whole lot besides the signature item to eat. It happens to be one of these small local places in Lisle. Get almost any kind you can think of including plant based choices. The prices aren't bad for high quality. I came here with the girl to each get a burger. One good thing about the smaller menu is it's easier to pick something. This wasn't a problem to begin with. Beyond Burgers were the ones we wanted and came for. It's about $10 for one. This comes with American cheese, lettuce, mayonnaise, onions, pickles, and tomatoes. Can be made vegan without cheese and mayonnaise. This also comes in a combo where adding a few extra bucks gets fries too. Burgers here out the wazoo, some meaty and some plant based. It has pretty good prices. The burgers come with toppings on then so tell them what you want it without.

I had their NWB Old Fashion which is made with Buffalo Trace..bonus! It was so good I had to have two.....lol. We spilt the NWB Trio appetizer which was a selection of hummus,olive tapenade and corn guacamole,fresh veggies and grilled pita. Definitely big enough for 4 people. Their menu offers Mac n cheese, Gourmet Burgers,Wraps,Sandwiches and Salads. I had the NWB Burger which was an 8 oz burger topped with pork belly,cheese curds,whiskey bbq sauce on a pretzel bun. Absolutely delicious! My wife had The Gobbler (GF) with a Turkey burger,avocado,goat cheese,roasted red pepper sauce on a GF bun. She loved it and they only charged an extra 1.00 for the GF bun.

A friend and I stopped in for a weekday lunch and there were about 15 other customers as well. This is a casual whiskey bar with your standard bar food and drinks. Service throughout was kind of inconsistent but still OK. The food came out fairly quick which is ideal for me anyway haha. We both opted for the $10 smash burger lunch special that comes with fries. For $10 this is a great deal. The burger was juicy and delicious. The sauce on the burger goes very well with it and the bun is buttery, very good. The fries? Meh, they were pretty bland and stale.

Greetings! Just a…read morefollow up review, more like a super check-in... Background: It was our son's birthday, MOST of the time, birthday dinners are home-cooked family affairs...his choice this year: Apolis run! We live forty minutes away, and it's worth the ride every time. Our party of seven lined up, placed our orders, and the kitchen got to work. Entrees and sides prepared perfectly, right down to sauce on the side for the seventh entree. It was a pleasure to meet the owner, Mike G. I had the opportunity to thank him for years of great eating. Furthermore, I noticed the sign of a great leader: When it got busy, he jumped in and helped his amazing staff. He leads by example, and it shows. We all had various forms of rice bowls and pitas. Of special note this visit: The sides! The pork and chicken souvlaki are simply divine. The oven roasted Greek potatoes seems like they're right out of your favorite rah-ra's oven. Full of flavor, and mind-blowing. The rice pudding and baklava, as my SIL said, ..."took a 98 point visit and made it a 100 point visit...". My thanks to Mike G. and the amazing staff for a wonderful meal. It was greater than great, and for a family birthday meal, I wouldn't want anything less. Until next time...tk

Super clean restaurant with a lot of made to order choices. I had a salad bowl with a lettuce base gyro meat (the beef and lamb) tomato,onion and cukes topped with tzatziki sauce that is wonderfully home made. It comes with a fresh pita cut into wedges. There are a ton more veggie toppings that you can get and about 7 different sauces to choose from. It was so good !! The gyro meat is nothing like I have had in other restaurants selling gyros. This is not the ground up, pressed Into a cone shape and then placed on a spot, this is steak and lamb slices compressed and then put on the spit and shaved off in little tender bits. Now I know gyros can be greasy but these weren't at all !! Husband got a platter that came with two sides. He chose a marinated tomato, green pepper, onion and cucumber salad and some fries. His gygo meat pile came on a bed of rice. This is a huge plate of food !! For these two meals and a soda (fountain and refillable) it was 41.67 with tax. Well worth it as I ate at 5pm and am still stuffed at 9.

We…read moredid wait a little to get helped at first and the host wasn't around, but once we were seated things picked up. For drinks, I tried the lychee mojito -- it was strong but had really good flavor and was enjoyable. For an appetizer, we got the pretzels. They had a nice garlic seasoning on them and were pretty filling. These were good. For mains, we ordered the Hangover Burger, tenders, and the Bulleit Bourbon Burger. Everything was really delicious. My fries just needed a tad bit of salt, but the burger itself was cooked well (I asked for medium). The flavors were good, and the honey running down actually worked well with everything. Our waiter was also really good and provided solid service. Overall, a great experience -- will be back.

Unfortunately when I went on a Friday afternoon the dining area was closed. Looked like they were filming and taking pictures. They were in the kitchen too. Anyway, I placed an order to go and less than 10 minutes later I was out the door. Ordered the BAM cheeseburger and small fries. A little pricey but then everything is. The mixture of beef and lamb is luxurious. Great blend and let's hear it for a good old fashioned char burger! The spices and sauce are subtle yet distinctive and unique. Wonderful flavors throughout. The fries are the larger/thick cut that I usually don't enjoy, but these were fried perfectly and had a great texture. Now I'm going to be nit picky on the build of the burger. And this is obviously personal preference. The burger patty is a generous size. However, the cheese was so melted and thin, I barely noticed. The onion was a raw white onion and also a generous cut. I would prefer a red onion or grill them. As it was, the onion kind of dominated the flavor. The tomato, pickles, and lettuce were all good, which added up to a tall build. Finally, a brioche bun. I know, the world loves a brioche bun. On a burger, I don't want the extra sweetness of brioche. Give me a good old potato bun or sesame seed bun instead. Nothing bad about any of the above. Great service, fast and friendly. I look forward to the dining room open and trying a gyro plate! I'll be back for sure.
