Other reviews lead me here and I wasn't disappointed, place was friendly and the burger was good. Especially liked the bun and the fries were crispy. Will go back read more

I have to say that it's a great burger. Have some favorites on the city but south side nothing beats Retro Burger

Meat didn't taste fresh and the giardiniera was oddly sour. Usually decent place but something was off today. I'll try again in the future read more

Wow. Just Wow. Stopped here just by happenstance and I'm glad I did. Fresh made, make your own burgers. Now, these are not your typical fast food burgers. RETRO does nice thick pub style burgers. Yeah, they're a little pricey but the quality is top notch. Ordered a small fry and it came in a basket and made most burger joints large fires look bad. Wife had their salad and was also made to order and fresh. Not the usual pre-made shit. If you did old school thick burgers this is the place to go. read more

I had it twice and the burger was amazing. I got a cheeseburger with bacon. The service was fast and efficient. I would definitely recommend. The fries are pretty thin and not my style but the burgers really make up for it. read more

Just made our first trip to Retro Burger. Definitely won't be the last !! Delicious old school classic cheeseburger Thick, juicy and tasty . The GF says Hot dog was like being at the ball game. " I think I liked more than Portillo's" That's good enough for me. Give it a try, you won't be sorry read more

I thought every QSR is suppose to where gloves during this crisis by state law but the owner said it's not mandatory. So he comped my meal. They don't give out water which is terrible. read more

I've driven by this place several times and thought it looked basic. I then read some reviews and added it to my list of places to check out in Chicago. I'm literally staying 5 minutes from this place. On my way back from work I grabbed a burger and it's in my top 7 burgers ever. Absolutely the best I've had in Chicago without a doubt. It's so good! The patty is no joke, tons of flavor and a variety of toppings to customize your burger. The bun was soft and complemented the burger to near perfection. The fries were thin sliced and delicious. The service was super fast and friendly. I can go on about this place. I'll visit this place several times before heading back to CA. You've gotta check it out. read more

Just devoured one of the best burgers I've ever had. Seriously, the burger patty itself I would eat cause it was that good! I will definitely be coming back to get many more! read more

Great burgers and fries. Fast service! The place is small so we always prefer to do takeout.

This is not your typical burger joint. It is a small place...only three tables inside. But what they lack in space, the make up for in quality and service. The most accurate description of what "type" burger they serve would be the pub-style burgers. They are pretty huge, 1/2 inch to 3/4 cooked meat patty. They are cooked to perfection, succulent on the inside, nice char on the outside. It is served with your choice of toppings: lettuce, tomato, onions, grilled onions, jalapenos, mushrooms. All of this served on a nice steamed brioche bun. I orderer the cheeseburger with lettuce,tomato, onions and jalpenos. They are definitely do not skimp on the toppings. Absolutely fantastic burgers!! I will be definitely be returning to try more!! read more

Small place but who cares LOVE the burgers!! Build your own burger!! Very nice customer service. Will be back!! read more

I have no idea how Crestwood Portillos can compete with these burgers. I go out of my way to get the bacon cheeseburger here. This place is the best read more

Ordered 2 cheeseburgers and large cheese fries. Fries were thin, and did not make the trip back to work well. They were stale and dry. Burger isn't bad, and they have a nice selection of toppings. I wouldn't recommend the fries unless you ate them right there. read more

Good food, the corn fritters are amazing! I wish they had a drive-through. Having to rely on GrubHub or Uber eats is a nuisance.

This hidden gem is the best burger place in town. All of the ingredients are fresh, and they it's all made to order. I normally get a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, onion, mustard, and sauerkraut on it(New York Style). Every single time the burger has been amazing. Today my gf and I tried a chicken salad, which was was equally as amazing and fresh. They also do Uber eats, grub hub, and have a small dining are inside and outside. read more

By far One of the BEST burgers I've had in a very long time. WOW! My burger was so fresh and delicious.

Such an underrated place love coming here owner is so friendly and food is always fresh and delicious 10/10

Good Solid Burger! Great brioche bun and quality meat. You can add many fresh condiments. Grilled onions were nice. Fries were decent. Glad I stopped. Will return. read more

Great tasting burgers at reasonable prices, paid $6.98 plus tax for a cheeseburger and medium fries, is bigger than some of the competition's double burgers. Was cooked to order by the owner with a large assortment of fresh condiments Service was excellent, getting in and out quickly. The only drawback was the small inside dining area, is better for carry out and dining outside. Highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

Everything about this place is 5 stars!!!! Food is delicious literally everything on the menu. I work right across the street so i've tried pretty much everything on the menu. The owner make your visit a memorable one. Some of the best burgers i've ever had read more

The best burgers I've ever eaten from a burger joint, thought I was eating home made burgers. This is worth the ride.

I wanted a good burger so I decided to stop in today. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The burger was nice and juicy and made to order. The fries was hot and fresh! I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a good burger and fries!!! read more

Always Great !!! I wish I could eat here more often !! Great service Great food and always fresh!!! You're gonna love this place!!

Took the kids there yesterday... wow! Great burgers at a great price! We will definitely be back!

I love this place! Sometimes I have a hard time speaking when I order, and often ask a lot of questions. These folks are always so patient and nice. Absolutely friendly service, amazingly clean and the food is absolutely fantastic! The prices are pretty cool too! read more

I've been here a few times. The burgers are amazing. Really good char crust from the flat top, juicy and flavorful. And if I was only reviewing the burgers they would get 5 stars. The owner is a really nice guy. However I also had the cheese sticks and onion rings. . The onion rings tasted exactly the same as Burger King. Yuk! The cheese sticks were soggy and poor quality!! It's just a matter of getting better quality items from their food provider. I definitely recommend the burgers though read more

Awesome burgers in Midlothian The jalapeno poppers are great much better then we expect it from reading the reviews read more

Had an amazing experience and the food was amazing. I had no idea about this place until a friend told me about this hidden gem. Burgers were thick and juicy and everything was so fresh. read more

Well first of all let me start off by saying my son and I think we are Burger connoisseurs. We feel as if we've tried every possible Burger in the Chicago land area (south) but yesterday was the day that we had the best burger of our life and we experienced that at Retro Burger. It's a very small establishment with a very simple menu I'm sure everything else taste great but the burgers are amazing. A little pricey on the drinks and the cashier could have been a little bit more friendly but the burger was out-of-this-world so you forget about those small things. I definitely would recommend this to anyone and I can guarantee that they will love the burgers, feel free to challenge I'm going with Retro Burger any day of the week! read more

Yum! This is not a fast food burger. Not too big like many restaurant burgers. Fries were good and hot. We'll be back!

I paid $28 for two double cheeseburgers and two small fries. That's with no drink. The burgers were so salty you couldn't eat them. I will never be back. read more

Retro burger is one of the best burger experiences I have ever had! The meat is well-seasoned, the bun was fresh and chewy, and the staff was friendly. I can't wait to go back to Retro Burger! read more

What a great find! This small establishment makes some of the best burgers in the state. Don't be fooled by the small size of the restaurant. This is truly a hidden gem! read more

Good food, made fresh while you wait. I had cheeseburger, cheese fries and a 12 oz soda can. And it cost 10$ . Food was good. Too many burger places to put this on my top list. I like Portillo's burger for the same price better. But I definitely recommend that you try it once and decide. Like I said when you're in the burger business, you have to be great!! read more

This is one of the best burger places I have found since since moving to Oak Forest. My wife is a burger enthusiast and she craves this place. High quality beef and a ton of toppings. Jose is very polite and we always have a great experience. read more

Truly a delicious burger with a homemade taste!! Loved their good quality bun too! My only complaint is that they didn't put ketchup or extra grilled onions on like I had asked. But a great burger and good value. Will definitely return!! read more

Pleasantly surprised by this tiny gem. Hot, thick, juicy, flavorful burgers, with a variety of toppings/cheeses to choose from. Will be back for our next burger fix. read more

Still haven't tried this place because everytime I go, they are closed. Hours fluctuate. I went at 6:42pm and they said they were closed yet they closed at 7pm on that day. Please post hours! read more

Good quality burger with fresh condiments. Couple small tables inside and a few larger tables outside. Plenty of parking since it's located in a plaza. read more
