Western Burger

If you are looking for the best Chicago dog chili cheese, burger, and good old-fashioned customer service look no further! This is the spot! I can't say enough good things about the food here and the hospitality! I had the Chicago dog and it was just as I remembered. I also had a chili cheese slider, and it was out of this world! The french fries were divine and the owner is a total sweetheart! Don't walk but run to this place for some good old-fashioned Chicago style food!

This historic spot is certainly a throwback. She's showing her age, but the food was good. Friendly,quick service and the wait staff does a good job of keeping the tables clean. We enjoyed a 1/3 lb. & 2/3 lb. cheese burger, fries and shakes. The Chicago style Italian beef sandwich was good too. The prices haven't stayed historic but, no one left hungry and we took food home.

Think I came here 12 years ago. This time I tried the $10 Chicago cheesesteak. It had Chicago beef and onions and peppers and provolone. Nice lean meat and filling sandwiches. Enjoyable.

I have not been here in years and we were close by having cocktails. We wrapped up our drinks early so we can make it in before they closed. Just like I remembered everything was delicious and everybody enjoyed their sliders.

This place has been around for as long as I can remember. My Dad used to take me here when I, as a kid, I would go to work with him and I continued that tradition on to my son. I live in the east valley now but any time my buddy and I find ourselves in the Phoenix area we HAVE to stop for some sliders and fries. The sliders are and always have been the best but the fries? ESPECIALLY if you dine in, are probably the best I've ever had. The funny thing is that I've been coming here for probably 50 years and I always tell myself I'm going to try the Italian beef or an Italian sausage but all I've EVER eaten here IS the sliders and fries. I'll have to try some other stuff to report back. The staff is always great and the owner is super cool. I'm not sure if they still offer it but they use to have a deal where if the Cubs OR the White Sox ever win the World Series, he gives free sliders to everyone that comes in the next day I think it is. I think he told me the last time it was 3 to each person, and I would imagine that would be a lot of sliders. He always has a cool story to tell as well about his business, his decor, or people he knows that might happen to be at the joint that particular day like he did the other day when I was there. Anyway, it's a tiny little place but it's a great little place. The fries alone pull 5 stars but pretty much everything about this little gem merits acknowledgement!

This has been a staple for my whole being. I always have the hardest time deciding what I'm going to eat because it's all soooo good. The people who work here are so nice and efficient. The place is always clean. Love the memorabilia everywhere. I had the hot beef with peppers and fried zucchini. My friend the sliders and fries. Always I'd recommend this place.

Chili/cheese Dog

I drive past this place all the time and I've always wanted to eat here because it's so cute on the outside. Today was the day and I'm happy to report it's just as cute on the inside. Cute- as in, classic and comfy. More importantly, service was great and the food was delicious! I got the chili cheese dog with onion and jalapeños - so good!

After living in Chicago for five years, we became true connoisseurs of Italian beef sandwiches. Outside of Chicagoland, finding a great one is nearly impossible--so when you do, you take full advantage. We've been in the Phoenix area for about six weeks, and in that time, we've already visited Chicago Burger five times for one reason: the beef. If you're unfamiliar with this legendary sandwich, do yourself a favor--step up to the counter and order: "Beef, hot, sweet, wet." Then, grab a stack of napkins (trust me, you'll need them) and prepare to enjoy the best Italian beef sandwich in Phoenix. This place is the real deal!

This was a great & unexpected lunch place to come to with colleagues. It's small but has a great hometown, chill vibe about it. Staff was super nice. You could absolutely tell who the regulars were by how they were greeted. I loved that. I went with the polish dog w/o a bun, kraut, & fries. The kraut is apparently made in house & was fabulous. Isn't wasn't aggressive in flavor or texture. I'm normally not a kraut kind of gal but this was something I am glad I took a chance & tried. I would come back with colleagues for sure. The location isn't super convenient for me but if you're in this area or looking for something new to try, I would definitely encourage anyone to give this local place a try.

Do the burgers come with mustard?

Yup, unless otherwise requested. www.chicagohamburger.com

No bar, beer or wine?

Nope! No libations here, the setup and vibe of the place is not really conducive to alcohol service. However, beer would be a welcome addition to the menu and would complement the Italian beef, burgers and dogs.… Read more

I went with the bang bang burger and kale salad -- a side comes with the lunch sandwiches. I was hesitant on kale but she mentioned it gets great feedback and I am glad I tried it! The kale salad has citrus and other goodies in it (sorry, I forget what!) and the kale wasn't tough at all. The dressing is lightly sweet and refreshing. Definitely recommend! The bang bang burger was delicious and filling without being overly heavy. They also had cans of local beer - Huss Blonde and Papago Orange Blossom - and a couple of speciality cocktails, along with various canned and bottled non-alcoholic drinks and fountain drinks. Its a cute shop with a patio and one side was open to the nice weather. A woman stopped to check in - I think she was the manager - who was really nice. Looking forward to coming back for a breakfast sandwich! (And more kale salad)

Service was great. We were approached by a woman who answered any questions we had and even gave recommendations. This place rocked!

I ordered Joes Original Italian Sub and my wife ordered the Chicken Parmesan Sub. Looking at the Yelp reviews, these two are arguably the best two sandwiches on the menu! I ordered double meat on Joes Italian sub, and it was awesome! I had a bite of my wife's Chicken Parmesan Sub and completely agreed with her that it was the best we have had. The perfect combination of meat, sauce, and cheesy goodness. The common denominator in both of the Sandi's was the incredibly fresh bread. It was crazy busy, and the service was excellent. The two employees were working their butts off. The store is organized, clean, and has a wide selection of Italian dry goods, cheese, meats, and sausages. I wish we were in town for another day, because I hear their pizza's are the best in Phoenix, and I would Love to be the judge! Maybe next time. We will be back! Cheers!

I highly recommend trying both, especially if you've never had a Chicago beef. The juicy beef paired with giardiniera is super savory. Damn! I'm craving it again. For lunch on our second visit, we ordered the Chief Beef special and a margherita pizza. This was, by far, the BEST margherita pizza ever! I think I've said that in another review... but for reals this time! The pizza was perfectly crispy on the bottom with just the right amount of basil to top off each bite. For dinner on our third visit, we ordered the clam linguine and an Italian beef sandwich. My husband says this clam linguine was better than the other versions he's eaten at Little Italy. The Italian sandwich was good, but not as savory as the Chicago beef. Can't wait to eat here, again, the next time we visit the Padres during spring training.
