    Centroburger
    Isra A.

    I got the burger and hot dog, botwere top notch and imo one of the halal spot for a hot dog in the suburbs! The burger was fresh with a nice seasoned patty and caramelized onions and the hot dog had all the classic Chicago ingredients that make it so nostalgic. This is a great casual spot for some good food, I'd highly recommend!!

    Double cheeseburger with sliced onions, pickles and jalapeños

    Had a bad craving for a burger and decided to give this place a try after reading all the good reviews. First off, it was hard to find because there's no sign outside lol but it's located in the same plaza as Noodles Pho U and to the right of Ivy Massage. Upon entering, you order on an iPad. Simple menu, consists of burger, fries, hot dog, grilled cheese, lemonade and soft drinks. We ordered two burgers with different toppings and fries. They made two of one of the burgers we ordered instead of our each individualized burgers but it's okay, no biggie. After paying, you enter your phone number and a message pops up saying you'll receive a text when the order is ready. We sat in a booth for a good 15 minutes waiting for the text or name to be called but never happened, but eventually checked and it was ready and sitting on the counter. The burger itself was decent, a bit greasy but nothing horrible. The buns were a little soggy and the patties were ok, fell apart easily. We liked the toppings (pickles, sliced onions and jalapeños) and the centro sauce was a nice change from your typical ketchup and mayo. The fries were a bit of a let down, especially since some of the other reviews had pictures of really golden/seasoned fries. Overall, average food but I'm hoping it was an off day so maybe we'll try again.

    Sure the place is a bit outdated but the food was delicious and that's what counts. The fries were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chicken slider was good too but I think they gave me the spicy chicken instead of mild which is fine. The pickles were fresh and so were all the other veggies. But the burger was the star of the show. Cooked medium well, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside and the seasoning was impeccable. Oh and we can't forget about the centro sauce. That was chefs kiss.

    Centro jumped on the spicy chicken bandwagon. I heard it was pretty good, so I tried it out. I ordered the Feast #3 which comes with two sliders and fries for $12.99. I asked for one slider with regular spice and the other super spicy. Well, I think they messed up and gave both sliders as super spicy. I took a bite of each one and the spice level was the same. Unfortunately my wife could barely tolerate it, but I thought it was pretty good. There's a tiny hint of sweetness that nicely complements the spice. Moreover, these were not sliders. These were two big chicken sandwiches, making this quite a value. The fries were sparse in quantity, which is a shame because they were good fries. Their chicken sandwich is definitely worth a shot. I think I still prefer Chi Tea and Dave's, but this is a nice option to have. P.S. I really hope they put up a sign some day so people actually know that Centro is here. Currently there's no signage. Apparently it's only for people in the know.

    Stuff all over the floor

    Place was very dirty and not inviting when you walk in. Looks like the place is not open. My order was also made wrong and we were the only two in the place. Even if my food was made correctly I would not be able to eat it after seeing the condition of the place. Never will return

    So happy someone told us to come here for some good halal burgers. I don't think I would have found this through the internet. From the outside this place may not look all that but when you see these burgers you will be blown away. Everything comes packed so nicely! Which is a huge thing during this covid time considering everything has turned into takeout. Burgers are very filling and satisfying and the fries are amazing! Love the centro sauce with it! Will definitely be back!

    This place has gotten pretty popular by word of mouth. Initially I wasn't too keen on checking it out since the name was random, and the restaurant itself is not kept in the best of condition. They have a very limited menu as well, but let me tell you, they definitely do a good job! Their burger is phenomenal, with thin, creamy, juicy beef patties. I personally recommend the double burger, and if you are in any doubt then look at the picture below. Limited menu and poor ambiance, however phenomenal food = 4.5.

    Great burgers. The double cheeseburger is huge. Hey grilled jalapeños. The hot dogs are not bad. They need doordash or Grubhub for delivery.

    Stopped by Empire in Lombard for a casual dinner and was really impressed with the options! The…read moreatmosphere was vibrant and the music was loud. It felt more a club than a restaurant. I ordered The Ellen, their plant-based burger, and it was fantastic. It's a Beyond Burger patty topped with vegan cheddar, guacamole, lettuce, tomato, and raw onion, all served on a soft pretzel bun. For a side, I had to try the poutine fries, and they were a total game-changer. They come out in a skillet and are absolutely loaded with gravy, cheese curds, bacon, and a dollop of sour cream. Super indulgent and the perfect comfort food. They charged extra for a dollop of mayonnaise! The service was very attentive. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

(full disclosure, we stopped in on a Monday night so that could be the cause for some of the experience....) We, a group of four, walked into a complete ghost town. There was barely a soul in the place. It didn't seem to affect anything with the food or service it just felt weird given the size of the bar and dining room area. Which, if you have a big group, this is a great spot to host a large gathering! Our waitress was very friendly and gave us ample attention, taking our orders quickly and delivering food that was hot and fresh. We had burgers (both were great but my Cartel was INCREDIBLE), a salad (tasty) and chicken fingers (yum!). Their burger menu has some fun options and covers a wide array of everything. The one thing that gave me pause, however, was that they only have pretzel buns (aside from gluten free). However, they were not dry at all and tasted delicious! The way a pretzel bun should! We left full and satisfied. I don't know how quickly we'll be back because there are so many other options for burgers out there but I'll certainly keep this spot in mind for the future!

The bar staff is always friendly, quick and attentive, and it's always very clean. But for the life of me, I cannot figure out what goes on with the food selection in this place I've been coming here for probably about 10 years and they have had probably as many themes. Between a palace of bacon and then not and then partially bacon and then bacon and vegan, and then just vegan and regular pub fare. It's close to the house so I will occasionally stop in for a beer and something after work. Usually, I will get a chicken Caesar wrap because that's pretty much impossible to screw up, but once in a while, I will have a taste for a burger and after all, this is a bar...and I've had bad bar burgers at bars all across the country, they usually are at least serviceable. Not here. Each time I order one I remember why I go back to the chicken Caesar wrap. Newest exhibit being their new Smash-burger. I selected the pretzel bun so I knew it was not going to be a typical smash burger but when the patties come out like gray school cafeteria burgers without a trace of smash or crisp to them, I'm not sure whoever created this menu has ever met the kitchen staff. Generally a Smash-burger should be a homogenous congealed mass held together by good will and melted cheese. I cut this thing in half and it fell over like a Jenga tower. The buns are consistently pretty stale. I can't imagine if burgers are this much of a gamble...how are entrees like pot roast? Who is even ordering enough of these things for it to be fresh when it seems like everyone's getting sliders and nachos.

It's my go‑to spot for a classic Fish Fry, and after years of coming here, it still never disappoints. We arrived a little after 5:30 p.m. on a Friday and, as expected, only waited about five minutes. The moment you step inside, you're met with a lively bar scene--TVs tuned to various games, tall tables lining both sides, and a steady buzz of conversation. People are eating, drinking, and genuinely enjoying themselves. What surprised me most was how many families were there, even with infants and toddlers in tow. And honestly, it was great to see. The kids were calm, the parents looked relaxed, and the whole place had this easygoing, everyone's‑welcome energy. We sat in the back, and the table was cleaned quickly. Our server Heather brought menus, though we already knew exactly what we wanted. The menu has a big selection, but for us it was three orders of the Fish Fry. You can substitute sides--sweet potato fries, tots, or onion rings--and the meal comes with hush puppies and coleslaw. Drinks and water arrived promptly, and the entrées followed soon after, piping hot. The fried fish was flaky and flavorful--nothing like the heavy, all‑batter, no‑fish situation you get at some places. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. We asked for refills and they arrived almost instantly. I'm already looking forward to coming back once the weather warms up so we can enjoy the patio. This place continues to be a reliable, welcoming spot with great food and an even better atmosphere.
