These fries look pretty rough. They appear greasy and unevenly cooked, with some being overly dark and others underdone. Many of them are limp rather than crispy, and the oiliness is very noticeable, making them look soggy instead of crunchy. The cuts are inconsistent, with some fries being thick and others thin, which likely caused the uneven frying. Overall, they look heavy, greasy, and far from the golden, crisp fries most people hope for. The shake was good but for $6 could have been larger serving. Employees were short and not really "welcoming" but it was near closing time but that should have no difference to the experience for the customer. Overall would probably get a burger & a shake here again but the fries are sub par at best. read more

Flipt - These fries look pretty rough. - Burgers Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

Great little burger place inside Rivers Casino. They also offer chicken sandwiches, grilled cheese, fish sandwiches, hot dogs, and salads. The food is outstanding. You order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table in a very timely manner. The side orders of fries and tots are huge! We've eaten here numerous times, and every meal was delicious. They offer a daily special which includes a sandwich, fries, and a drink at a really fair price. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Good food on the menu. I had the bacon grilled cheese sandwich and it was great. It is a bit noisy and hard to hear the staff when you are ordering. Located in the casino and has lots of seating or you can get it to go. read more

This place used to have one of the best burgers in town. Haven't tried it since I moved but came back for it and they really went down hill in flavor. Hopefully it's a one time thing but it was so bad I wouldn't look forward to trying again. read more

Flipt - Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

So I'm here on a business trip and decided to try this place out since it was walking distance from my hotel. Another reason why I decided to try this place was because someone had given me the recommendation... but to be completely honest, it wasn't the best burger place I've tried. I ordered the mushroom and Swiss burger, which wasn't really seasoned. I also ordered the rosemary and garlic fries but to my disappointment, the fires came out to me first (cold not hot) and the taste of the rosemary was way too overpowering, not really being able to taste the garlic, and the ketchup was given in packets!!! No bottle or container but packets!!! The fries was a pretty big portion, but to have ketchup packets was kind of a chore to open each and every one to have just a little bit of ketchup come out. They also had a broken fountain drink machine, so I ended up getting a bottled Diet Coke. For dessert, I asked the cashier what she recommended and she said that the strawberry shortcake shake was amazing...but it really fell short in my opinion. The service was great and the servers and staff were all friendly and professional but the food wasn't anything great or memorable (in a good way). In total I spent about $31 for my "artisan burger", "gourmet fries", their "signature shake" and a small bottle of Diet Coke...forgot to mention that they don't serve regular service water, but over priced bottled water. This restaurant is inside the casino, and perhaps that's why the prices were so high!! But being a frequent visitor in Vegas, casino restaurants are usually affordable since they are inside a casino, but not this place. I'm glad I had the opportunity to try this place, but I probably would've been happy eating at McDonald's and it costing me only a fraction of the price. The restaurant concept looked great, but the food wasn't that good. Don't take my word for it, try it out and let me know what you think!! read more

I decided to grab a quick sandwich here before I played some cards and I regret it. I ordered the fried cod sandwhich. The flavor was ok, nothing special but with my first bite it scalded the roof of my mouth. Usually when you eat a sandwich, if it is hot your tongue, lips, something will hit it and you can immediately pull back avoiding injury. The second my teeth broke the crust a shot of burning hot oil shot out hitting the roof of my mouth burning it. This is just stupid negligence. I am sure their food is ok but people need to watch out. read more

Today's Tuesday burger special was a 1/2 lb pizza burger, fries, and a 20 oz beverage for $15.  The Tuesday special changes every week apparently, so I tried that today.  It was ok for the price (and don't forget an additional 10% off with your Rivers casino card).  The burger patty itself was juicy and fine. Pizza toppings weren't my fav but ok.  The side of fries was generous but only of so-so quality.  An OK 3 stars for this Tuesday deal feels about right. read more

This place has an excellent chopped chicken salad. They also serve up all types of very good burgers and a shrimp po boy which is loaded with shrimp. Onion rings are top notch.

Flipt Burger has a lot of potential with its great service and friendly staff. The concept is appealing, and the overall atmosphere is comfortable, though the decor is fairly standard. However, there are some significant areas for improvement when it comes to the food.The burgers are a major letdown. The meat patty is disappointingly small, about half the expected size. Although it's supposed to be a quarter-pound, it feels more like a nickel in size. This drastic reduction in portion size seriously impacts the overall experience. Additionally, the chicken sandwich also falls short due to excessive breading, making it less enjoyable. The buns, unfortunately, are dry, which further detracts from the meal.To truly succeed, Flipt Burger should focus on improving both the quantity and quality of their food. Increasing the size of the burger patty to meet expectations, reducing the breading on the chicken sandwich, and ensuring the buns are fresh and soft would make a world of difference. With these changes, Flipt Burger could become a go-to spot in Des Plaines. read more

My boyfriend and I are frequent visitors of Rivers casino. We wanted burgers for dinner. They had a special of the day which was a patty melt. He ordered that and it confused the cook staff. Grilled onions are part of the any patty melt, they missed putting it on the burger. This patty melt also called out Gouda cheese and a zesty ranch dressing. No Gouda cheese was added. When we realized they missed the ranch we asked for a side of it. Head chef said it didn't come with it. We showed him the special of the day and he acknowledged the mistake. They gave us a side of ranch. It was made with sour cream rather then mayo. Tasted like sour cream with a touch of something added to it. Patty melts are pretty easy to make. They should stick with a standard one rather then try to be fancy! My vegan burger was suppose to come with some rivers sauce. I assume it's like everyone's mayo/ketchup concoction. They didn't put it on the burger. It wasn't worth asking for and I just added my own mayo and ketchup. Will I go again, probably. However we'll stick to basic burgers rather then the special of the day. read more

Their chopped chicken salad is truly next level for this type of joint. Keep up the great work

This is our favorite restaurant within Rivers Casino. Service is prompt and food is good. We usually order the Flipt burger, which is around $12. It does not come with fries - FYI. They must've changed the bun of the burgers because it's not what I remember it tasting. We also got the tomato soup. It was good. On Monday and Tuesdays, they have specials and $1 sodas. read more

I have been told by several people that this is a great burger joint and for the first time ever, I did not let the Yelp reviews scare me off and I gave it a shot. Trying to keep our expenses to a minimum, my hubby and I have found ways to keep our food bills (and essentially calorie count) lower...we skip the soda, we share a side dish, we share a meal, we don't add all the extras like soups and salads. With doing these things, we can save anywhere from $5 to $25 dollars depending on where we're eating. Last night was no exception to this rule. I knew this wasn't the cheapest place to eat but I wanted to surprise my husband with a little date night somewhere new. Like I said, I have been hearing for a while that Flipt is a great burger joint and I have a few friends that actually go to the casino specifically to eat here and don't even gamble so I figured if they can do that, why can't I? Even with cash in my wallet, I proved to myself that I can have some serious self control when I want to. We walked in to the casino, stopped to use the restroom, and made our way over to Flipt in the corner of Rivers casino next to the buffet. You order your food at the counter, where you can also ask the employees about any food questions, I saw a poster on the walk up to the counter with a special $14 deal which includes a Half Pound BBQ Teriyaki Burger, with fries and a tropical shake with pineapple. Steve liked the sound of this, so that was his choice. I asked the girls at the counter which they preferred, the burgers or the chicken sandwiches? And they both said the burgers so I selected a quarter pound with cheddar cheese, pickles, lettuce, ketchup and mustard. I ordered my own side of fries which you can add to anything for $3 instead of the $5 you would pay if you just ordered a side of fries. You take your order number on a little stand to your table of choice and you wait. They technically are set up to just bring you your already paid for food and you clear your own plates, but Jose was kind enough to check on tables regularly and even cleared plates and cups throughout the whole place. I was impressed. My hubby and I both thoroughly enjoyed our food and I even ate my entire burger. I learned that we can easily share an order of fries. There is no reason to order my own because they give you plenty in one order. My only complaint is that their ketchup tastes like generic crappy ketchup. I was not a fan of it. It may have been the dispenser that we got it out of that may be in need of a cleaning, or it was in fact, generic ketchup, either way, I was not a fan. We will def eat here again, we will share an order of fries and we can easily keep our bill around $20. To all you people complaining about how expensive it is...cut back on the extras. $20 for dinner our in our area ain't bad! read more

I'm so glad for Flipt and Rivers in general. My friend had an unexpected overnight layover and Rosemont has no place that's open later than 10. A town catered to tourists and no place to eat late night. I knew Rivers would be open and fortunately, so was Flipt. I ended up ordering the Makin Bacon burger and split a basket of fries. I forgot to add any veggies and I went up to ask for toppings and ketchup for fries. One of the friendly staff members let me know where the ketchup us and when I also asked for veggies it was no problem for her to give me a salad to go on top of my burger. The fries were also tasty and with the Domaine Dupage added to it I have to say I was pretty satisfied. A lot better than some local places, and 3.5 stars for the booze and surprisingly attentive service. read more

I love this place! One of the best burgers in the area. It is located in the back of the Casino, truly a little hidden gem. I don't know about some of the complaints on this place because I have never had a bad experience here and I normally come late at night.... The burgers are delicious and come with tiny wooden spatulas in them when they are ready-precious. The staff is great- super nice and they always make sure your food is made the way you want it and that it gets to you quickly. I would highly recommend taking a break from your gambling and checking this place out. read more

This burger joint pleasantly surprised me. I was expecting a "bar food" type of experience for a cheaper alternative to the fancier restaurants in the casino. But Flipt has literally flipped my initial impression. I ordered the Makin Bacon Burger and fries. The burger was delicious and the bacon was perfect. And, my God, the fries are amazing!! Perfectly salty. I will return. read more

Located inside the casino. If you happen to loose on the blackjack tables the manager will give you a food voucher for your sorrows. Then indulge in a super delicious rivers burger or a Po'boy comes loaded with shrimp. They have monthly and weekly specials. Rivers card holders get discounts tru the mail. Prices are casino prices so don't look for McDonald's value meals here. read more

Flipt - Monthly Special: Chipotle Chicken Grilled Cheese - Burgers Near Me - Des Plaines, Illinois

This is hands down the best quick service restaurant in the casino. The burgers are pretty good and fully customizable. Their fries are pretty good and they have cheese sauce for the fries. I can't eat fries without cheese so this is huge for me lol The chicken Caesar wrap is really good also and so are their shakes. It is consistently good food with very friendly staff. I think the burgers are so much better than the one served at Hugo's. The only downside is that it seems like they don't have enough staff so hopefully that's not a management decision because their employees work hard but don't seem to have enough time to do things like clean tables or take out the overflowing garbage. I highly recommend this restaurant and will continue to eat here before all the other restaurants in the casino. read more

I had a feeling with a name like Flipt & a picture of a spatula, this places incorporates grilling. Setup: You order at the cashier, then they give you a number to place on your table. You get your own drink, utensils, napkins, etc. After you sit down, a server brings your meal to your table. I've been to Flipt a few times & each time I ordered the Flipt burger (or Son of a Flipt burger because it's smaller). I love the bun it comes in & especially love selecting from a large list of toppings. For some reason, I prefer their pickles & shredded lettuce. But I add some more toppings. The final product is pretty awesome. Very close tie to a Portillo's burger. Their Fries are thin but 'meaty.' They come in a cup & I usually devour them. Their Onion Rings are pretty good with Pranko breading. They also have Chicken sandwiches, Hot Dogs, grilled cheese, salads, etc. I hope to try some of their other dishes. The only negative is they are pretty pricey. Perk: After their meal, you can gamble at the Rivers Casino. read more

I had the five cheese and bacon grilled sandwich and a side of onion rings. I was impressed with both.

Dining @ Flipt is seldom a first choice for many I assume. The lunch options here are limited: $22 for buffet, $14 for limited menu of entrees @ the Asian 6 table spot or here. So this is where I found myself grabbing a bite in between losing $ at their stone cold craps tables. Giving this place a 1 star, because there is no ZERO star option available. They fail on so many levels, its pathetic. The $9 burgers, mine was the "Bacon", are 1/2 single patty beasts; which you would think is a great start to a burger: Not here! The patty lacked any flavor and was overcooked. I looked at the wall board several times, as I was eating, trying to figure out if the "freshlly cooked" notice applied to burgers or just the few sandwiches they had on the board. It just did not feel or taste like I was eating a fresh, never frozen, hamburger patty. I even lifted the bun to inspect. The toppings consisted of bacon (greasy), canadian bacon (greasy) and cheddar cheese (well it was barely there, but looked yellow, so I assume it was cheese at some point. No one asked if I wanted anything else on it, say maybe a tomato. The fries, while touted as some special hand cut attraction, are sliced thin and similar to Steak n. Shake fries. This "excellent" burger adventure set me back $15 with soda; which is a joke. Basically, eat before or after coming to the casino. read more

Disappointing! Fries ($5 solo) $3 added to a sandwich were tiny bits like I received the end of whatever was left in the bag when they dumped it in the fryer. We had Shrimp Po Boy (bread was dry, not toasted, not many shrimps and the shrimp I did get were tiny) and Rivers Burger. The Burger, my male companion had, on fresh soft bun and he loved it. Guess I should have chosen a burger! How can you get fries wrong like that? Not worth the gamble. (No pun intended) read more

After spending a night at Rivers, my then-husband and I grabbed a bite from here just because the other joints were closed. (We aren't really into gambling but he wanted me to experience it once in the casino, I just want to make that clear.) The place was pretty tidy, and their lighting was bright. There was a long queue of customers ahead of us, but I noticed that the employees' working tempo was rather fast. The kind of interaction that we received from them was inclining more toward the snobbish angle, however. Their huge burgers were passably tender and palatable. We also got fresh portions of fries and average milkshakes. All of them were satisfactory enough to feed our hungry bellies. In terms of the pricing of the foods, I believe it was logical. Still, I don't think that there would be any reason for me to go out of my way from Chicago just to dine in here again. read more

We shopped the whole day and we were in the road for a long while and just decided to stop in here for a quick bite. I was with my cousin who already went in this place and it was my first time. It was basically a burger spot that also have other different choices on their menu. We decided to just order their burgers and I let my cousin order for me. The place is a bit spacious and it has a nice ambiance inside and there were also a lot of people eating inside. Customer service is somehow great. The staff is friendly, helpful but our food takes long before is was served. Our burger both has a huge portion and the patty was huge including the other ingredients in it. The burger really looks good and it tastes good too. I was able to finish it after a few minutes because I was also famished that time and it is our first meal for that day. I must say that their burger is ok and I am looking forward to be back to try other burgers they have. read more

I wish I could give this place zero stars. I'd rather eat paint off of the floor. The service was slow and when the burger came, it looked like a 5 year old made it. I would rather deep fry my shoe and eat it. I will never be back to this place. I am disappointed and disgusted in the way they treat their customers. Waste of money! I feel sick writing this post. Voiced my concerns and didn't even get acknowledged or an apology. I told them to keep the money and sent the food back. You think they would have at least said sorry for their pathetic attempt. read more

Was playing some blackjack and needed a quick bite in between some shoes. The burger place seemed like the quickest option in the casino. I got a turkey burger, which was ok. It wasn't terrible, but wasn't OMG delicious! I do want to comment the staff was super friendly and helpful. They came by to check up on us a few times and even bring us ketchup for our fries. If you are gambling/drinking/doing other shady things/trying to sober up in a casino then I say this place is worth a visit. But no need to make a special trip for the average so-so burger. Last but not least ... Don't be an idiot, always double down on an 11!!! :) read more

This place is OK. Prices are a little too steep and you have to order sides like fries and sh*t because burger comes bare naked without anything. It's not bad though, so I'd say if you won some money at the casino might as well go spend it at Flipt. If you already lost money don't go there because it's overpriced and would leave you slightly disappointed! read more

Flipt serves up amazing tasty large burgers. The flavor is incredible. I ordered the burger that comes with everything minus the pickles. Fantastic! It was definitely worth $9.00, as the burgers are large enough for two people. Highly Recommended. They have runners to drop your food to your table and have runners that come by and pick up your plate. Very courteous and polite help. read more

Best burger I had in Illinois and probably in the United States. The place is located inside rivers casino and let me be clear (I DON'T GAMBLE) i visit the casino for two reasons, 1- the buffet. 2- Flip. The burger is made fresh and i know that because I'm in the business and i also know that the supplier is Gordon Foods (very respectable food supplier) The meat is never frozen and there is no fillers, wheat or other kind of garbage in the meat which make it the old fashion burger just like when it was in the 40's 50's and 60's. The sauteed onion is amazing and i can smell it from the casino's parking lot! They saute it with butter and steam it. The fries are nice and they have beef hot dog as well. I was looking at the chairs in this restaurant and for some reason i decided to read the name of the manufacturer then googled it and guess what ! Each chair is approximately $600 !!! apparently it is a fancy factory that supplies restaurants. The decor is mix of modern 70's space era with casino contemporary. Over all Flip rocks and is definitely worth the drive. 5 stars all the wayyyyy read more

I TRIED - Makin Bacon Burger (6/10) - Fries (2/10) So you're gamblin' away at the casino with the highest minimums around the Chicagoland area ($25), and you're down to your last $15. Do you play penny slots or do you attack your hunger and get a burger? The answer? Play penny slots. Why? Because Flipt is freaking expensive, and $15 may not even cover it! MAKIN BACON BURGER No one asked me if I wanted it well done, but I guess that's just how they all come. Fine. The menu makes this out to be a ridiculous amount of bacon, but it's not that bad. You have bacon, Canadian bacon, cheddar, and BBQ sauce. Right away, not enough BBQ sauce, but that's ok, you can ask for more. The burger didn't really have a lot of smoky flavor, which is strange considering the bacon, but it was decent. The cheddar was hard to find. It's nothing spectacular, but it does fill you up. If this thing had grilled onions, it'd be better, but this burger is expensive as it already is. FRIES They're as thin as Steak & Shake fries, but they're not crispy, they're flimsy. Worst of, they're freaking $2 for just a side of fries with your burger that wouldn't even fit into a McDonald's small fries bag! DO YA FEEL LUCKY? I mean, nobody's going to come to Rivers JUST for Flipt. In fact, 99% of the people who eat at Flipt probably didn't even know it was here when they came to Rivers. If I was really that baller to not worry about $25 minimums, then yeah, I guess Flipt isn't expensive. But for a guy who rarely goes over $10 minimums in Vegas, $16 for a burger, fries, and drink is expensive. Take into comparison, Red Robin gives you a same size burger (asks how you want it done), unlimited steak fries, a drink, and you're waited on for $16 which includes tip. But whatever, like I said, this is just a refueling station for the gamblers. read more

Great burgers and even better fries! I love the buns and the option of a smaller version of the Flipt burger. The prices are a bit steep though but comparable to what you'd see at a hotel restaurant. This is probably the 4th or 5th time I've eaten here and never noticed the staff comes by the table to check on things and ask how your meal was - nice touch! We don't even care that this restaurant is inside the Rivers Casino - we go there just for the great food! read more

Can you say rip off?? I've been to Rivers to gamble and to eat at their buffet a bunch of times. However, I needed food and Flipt was the only one open. Hugo's was closed for a private event, the buffet was already closed...well you get me. This place didn't have a line...go fig I ordered just their turkey burger, a side of fries and a pop. Nothing fancy...just a simple turkey burger and fries with a drink. My total was $16.50...are you serious? I was thinking this better be a damn good burger. Keep in mind you refill your own pop and bus your own table. My meal arrived at the table and needless to say it was disappointing. The burger was nothing impressive and tasted like chicken sharwarma for some odd reason. The bun had the taste and texture of really soft sliced sandwich bread. As for the fries, nothing great or fancy about them. It was like Steak n Shake fries but just a tad thicker with 2.5 times the price. Overall, it was a disappointing experience. If the meal tasted better, then sure I would be able to understand the high price. read more
