I'm disappointed to write this, because my family genuinely loves Culver's and we order the same thing every time: two Culver's Deluxe burgers, cheese fries, onion rings, 1 Double Cheesebuger with ketchup + mustard only. But in the past few weeks, this location has gone downhill. Incident #1 - Uber Eats (3 weeks ago) Our order arrived completely inedible. Everything was so over-salted that you could literally see salt crystals everywhere. We tossed the food out. Incident #2 - Drive-Thru Pickup I went through drive-thru recently, was about to pull away when the worker stopped me saying they'd forgotten one burger. I drove home and again saw the same issue: burgers and sides coated in salt like they were dipped in a salt box. I called and spoke to a man who said he was a manager; he apologized and told me to come back in and they would remake the order. When I arrived, a different person the shift lead apologized and asked if I wanted a refund or a redo. I requested a redo with no salt on the burgers, fries, and onion rings. She assured me it would be made correct. 10 minutes later a different staff member handed me the replacement bag. Unbelievably, when I got home, the entire order was again overly salted. Fries, onion rings, burgers all of it. At that point it felt like a prank or a serious QC failure. This isn't just a minor mistake it's repeated, identical errors even after clear requests and escalation to management. Something is broken here, whether it's training, communication, or understaffing. I hope corporate investigates and fixes it, because this used to be one of our favorite spots. read more

Updated 11/4/2025: I heard back from the ' Business mgr"', read the content yourselves. I wrote what I wrote and I blasted you. You obviously did not look what I wrote to the pictures. The last picture,the female ( walking out an order to the waiting car,who refused me service taking any order from me, is a huge problem too. She refused me service unless I moved from the parking spot ( ' No Parking' except for drive thru orders waiting signs were not posted anywhere , but the marked parking spots on the ground along that fence were never utilized. ) why would I express my concerns to Culvers corporate office. YOU'RE THE BUSINESS MGR / MANAGEMENT.... ADDRESS THE PROBLEM TO your Emoloyees ABOUT NEVER TURNING AWAY ( REFUSING SERVICE) TO ANY CUSTOMER! You lost this customer back then and as a whole at any Culvers, & I've blasted it on any and all social media site's, and I've expressed your poor Customer service and issue throughout my circles. read more

Culver's is one of my favorite fast food spots to dine in. It's always clean and the food is fresh. I stopped by today for a quick bite and it was a very no-nonsense, easy experience. I probably visit this location once or twice a year and I've never had an issue. I would definitely recommend it. read more

When I'm in a pinch for time I go to Culver's in Portage Park sometime I go to the Montrose "L" location. Most people go for the the burgers but I like to try new items too. This time I chose the Cod Fish Combo with onion rings in place of the fries. Check out the photo it's a pretty good size sandwich with the rings in the background. read more

Management here refuses to make things right when they blatantly don't give you items you ordered. $15.50 for a burger with a root beer is way too much. The fries they serve are rock hard, cold, and inedible. I don't know what is going on with this location - but save your money and avoid it like the plague. Never again!! read more

rude manager but I love Culver's. I love the quality of the food. I like the environment and the smell of the place.

live nearby and come here often always a great place to eat and the staff are always friendly and welcoming..... the restaurant is always clean and decorated nicely with decorative items to fit the occasio. the food is always hot and ice cream is to be enjoyed plain or topped with goodies. Just make you feel like family when you visit! read more

The double butter burger was magnificent and the fries were quite exquisite and perfectly seasoned and i would say it was quite a memorable meal and i would recommend this to everyone who stays around the irving park area i am definitely recommending this to my family and friends! read more

Culver's - they wanted to give me BURNT fries and my chicken has soft weird white stuff on AND chicken had a hair. - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

My granddaughter and I decided to dine in at the Culver's in Oswego Illinois. They messed up my hamburger order. When they brought me the right burger it was very warm but very greasy! My granddaughters chicken tenders and cheese curds were also greasy! If I wanted greasy good we would have gone to McDonald's! There food quality has definitely gone down hill! Not worth paying $20! read more

Excellent food and service! Very consistent and the owner is a nice guy. Back a bunch. Service and quality of food are always top notch!

The cheese was cold on my mushroom and Swiss burger and also on my husbands burger. Very disappointed as we love Culver's.

Disappointing experience, mashed potatoes and gravy tasted nothing like it, potatoes were powdery, steaming hot and the gravy tasted like vegetable soup with dirt in it. I asked twice for Wisconsin Swiss but on sourdough instead of rye and got it on overly salted rye bread anyway. My fiancé's mushroom Swiss burger was extremely greasy. Chili fries were the only item that actually tasted decent. What a waste of money. P.S. I don't understand how the worker looks at you, says "yes it will be on sourdough instead of rye" while checking the order in computer and you don't end up getting what you asked for. read more

Culvers is my FAVORITE fast food! I love the Cod and Walleye when it's available. I also love the shrimp, pork tenderloin and beef pot roast. Best onion rings, cheese curds, and pretzel bites. I often get a Banana shake or their custard. I could eat here daily! read more

Employees are helpful and upbeat. I didn't realize that at Culver's their thing is that they make people's food to order, so when you place your order you'll be asked to pull up and wait until your order is ready. Their food is pretty good and they have cheese curds, which I was pretty hungry for. And they have good root beer that is I guess their own recipe, none of that gross Barq's stuff. read more

Culver's - Waiting for orders. - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

If I checked in every time I went here, I'd definitely be the duchess of Culver's. I can't believe I haven't written a review yet. In all embarrassment I probably come here once per week. Here's some pro tips 1) there's a survey on the receipt, if you fill it out you get a free cup/come of ice cream. It takes about 2 mins to do and I usually save them and do the survey will waiting in line the next time I'm there 2) they have gluten free buns 3) you can never go wrong with the cheese curds There is parking in the back and the restaurant is always sparkling clean. After frequenting this establishment for three years they have never messed up my order or given me something under or over cooked. Thanks Culver's! read more

I'd never been huge on Culver's when I lived in Wisconsin. This location here in Chicago changed my mind! The space is kept so clean, it does not smell greasy, and the staff is professional and totally on top of keeping tables ready for the next guest. I'm always walking past here and see how great they do with bringing orders to waiting vehicles. A value meal with an adult burger is a bit too much grease for me, but I figured out I can purchase a kids' meal, and the portion is perfect. All that taste in a smaller serving does my stomach well! read more

Per the staff this Culver's is rated third best in the nation! Employees are friendly and engaging. At least two prompted a conversation to check on our experience and sway us into filling out the survey mentioned on our receipt. Added bonus to filling out the survey, I get a scoop of frozen custard and potentially, they could win monies for their restaurant. I brought two niblings for their first Culver's experience. The kids were thrilled with the kids meal options and best of all, a scoop of frozen custard came with one free topping. Score! While dining an employee offered us a free sample of their seasonal flavor, spiced pumpkin. For a Sunday night the restaurant was swamped but employees managed to keep the dining area clean and good times going. The vibe their employees bring, makes the shop feel lively. read more

Food & service is good. A little pricy for fast food but also a little better. Suggest the Pot roast dinner.

ordered from the store in oak forest, il on 9/13. ordered 2 single cheedebuggers with ketchup and onion. 3-4 hours later (after eating only 1/2 of one burger) I was so sick...puking and let's just say spewing from both ends for the next 5 hours. I ate nothing else before or after. then today my coworker got a burger from the SAME Culver's and 3 hours later, she is now in the bathroom spewing her guts for the last 30 minutes. Seems to me something is unclean over there for 2 unrelated people to both get food poisoning from the same place. read more

For the price you're going to pay for a greasy hamburger here you can actually go to a decent restaurant and get a real meal

very year I get the Walleye that is only available during LENT. Today I got the 2 PC dinner. Extremely disappointed- it tastes like blue fish- VERY FISHY tasting a lot of dark parts of the fish I didn't eat. It looked different- tastes aweful. PLEASE don't experience this. read more

Culver's has one of the best burgers. The meat was juicy the lettuce, tomatoes and onions were crisp. The burger was put together great. I am stopping to write this review and change my rating. 1 star...pretty tacky that the little boy behind the counter tried to make his smooth moves and use cheesy lines to pick up on my niece. Really?! So unprofessional and super scummy. read more

IT'S BETTER WITH BUTTER I grew up around six corners and I'm excited to see a Culver's in my old neighborhood. Six corners was the place to be when I was growing up as a kid. There was a huge Sears department store, a Woolworth Five & Dime and a Key department store. It was a shopping Mecca. All of these places are gone now and it's exciting to see a new generation of businesses like Culver's move into the community. It's businesses like this that are leading the way to bringing back the greatness of six corners. The Culver's team here is amazing. I must also give a shout out to the GM Savannah. She is super sweet and also makes a delicious Sundae. I can hardly wait to come back here for another one. I ordered a double ButterBurger value basket that came with fries and I upgrade to a Butterfinger chocolate shake because I haven't had soda in 10 years. It's a good &2 upgrade. I love the Oreo shake bit wanted to get my wife her favorite candy. She was really surprised with the Butterfinger. The burger was so good. I love eating Culver's in the restaurant because they plate up the food so nice. It always seems smashed in the container on take away. The burger was pure perfection. I was also impressed that my cheese was melted. In the 100's of Culver's Burgers I've had the cheese is always not melted. I talked to the GM here and she told me that is how they serve them at six corners. She truly made my day by delivering it this way. She then told me that I can request melted cheese. What? This is a game changer for me. I'm asking for this every single time I order my ButterBurger. It's such a good burger. The family from Wisconsin that started this business understands how to make a good burger and how to treat customers with respect. They also give back to the community. That's amazing! The fries were very good too. I usually get the onion rings but decided to get some fries. The crinkle fries always remind me of my late Mom. She'd make those frozen fries at home and serve them to us on special occasions. It's a good memory. Kind of like the memories we build with every visit to Culver's. Thanks Culver's for opening locations in Chicago. I'd always eat Culver's on road trips but it's nice to know I can drive a short distance for one of your amazing ButterBurgers in the city. I now need a location in downtown Chicago. That would make my life complete. PRO TIP: May is National Burger Month. Get out there and celebrate with a ButterBurger. read more

Bland hamburgers. Prefer the chicken sandwich and desserts instead. But the service is very nice though!

Culver's hosted a birthday party for our 12 year old yesterday - first one ever hosted by this Culver's - and it was a giant success! The Culver's staff, lead by Savannah, was magnificent. The planning and communication was professional, the food was hot, delicious and ready to go the moment all 25 of us (!) arrived on a bus, the area was festive (see pic), the cleanup was super quick, and the staff was attentive throughout. Thank you so much Savannah and everyone else at Culver's! read more

Culver's - Birthday at Culver's! - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Finally, a Culver's somewhere in the city. Love how clean they keep this location and hopefully it lasts that way. It's fairly new to the Portage Park neighborhood but I hope they can maintain the cleanliness. Back in the day, I remeber Culver's having some expensive combo meals for a fast food restaurant and thats why I didnt really like going there. Not sure if they recently revised their menu, but its more affordable now with $6-$7 combo meals that are available. I love their butterburgers and their custard. I guess thats good because thats what they're known for. The kids meal is awesome too as it includes a nice size custard portion for the kiddos. This location has plenty of seats available yo dine inside, with even a couple of flat screens available. They even have a couple of tables outdoors if you wanted to enjoy your meal/custard outside. Their service is nice and friendly. The manager always comes around and makes sure you are happy with your order. Great addition to the neighborhood. read more

FIRE THE GENERAL MANAGER! The general manager, the card they gave me says Savannah Weicorek, was incredibly rude. When I ordered they told me I could come back up to get my custards after my meal. When I went back up the general manager said I needed the coupon from the bag to get my custard. I told her no-one told me anything, that they've let me use my reciept for the custard before. I had just thrown tray in the garbage. She made me dig through the garbage to the the coupon on the side of the bag. She said that I could just be trying to get a second custard. This is absurd and then refused to give me the custard AFTER she made me dig through the garbage!! She walked away and another employee took my order and they did NOT need all the coupons from the bag. The manager then pushed another employee out of the way to make sure she made our custard order, which I did NOT trust. She probably spit in it or stuck her finger it . It was suspicious that she wanted to prepare my order after treating me and my kids like degenerates. From reading the reviews , this is not the first incident people have had with this manager. I don't know why she is still employed at Culver's. She's rude, unprofessional and overall a terrible human. I filed a complaint to Culver's and I hope they follow up. The treatment was ridiculously rude. Culver's need to do better and get rid of her. I will NOT be returning if they continue to employ disgusting human beings. read more

A little pricey for a fast food place but a great addition to the neighborhood. They seem to have their act together during covid, with plenty of capacity to handle drive thru customers and a detailed but easy to follow carry out set up. From one of the signs out front I wasn't sure initially if I could order carry out food in the actual restaurant but you can go in and order then space out as you wait for the food. Really polite staff, too. Also even though I love fries more than almost anything and I tend to order large fries at any drive thru, this is the only fast food place where a small fry is food enough. Also try the cheese curds - can't find anything like that at other drive thrus and they're just as good here as they are at Culver's in Wisconsin. read more

Sure, Culver's is a chain, but as chains go their burgers are pretty good, very fresh beef, fresh toppings and crispy bacon. I also love their crinkly fries. And the custard is always good. If you give blood at Vitalant you can (or used to be able to) get coupons for free pints, so we take advantage of those when we can. Service at this location is friendly and the drive-in is pretty efficient. Good speaker system for collecting the orders. read more

This location is doing a great job with keeping us safe in the era of covid. No indoor seating. Clear paths for ordering and waiting for food. Friendly staff in gloves and masks. Also, I asked for sauce for my cheese curds. I asked for ranch and marinara and the hostess not only got them for me but offered honey mustard and bbq because she said people like those too and I should try it! Wow! Thank you! read more

A new "Culver's" location just opened on Irving Park Rd., near the Six Corners area in East Portage Park. It's the first city location I've seen (correct me if I'm wrong). In the past, I saw Culver's in the immediate suburbs, like Evergreen Park. However, I was quite excited because when it comes to fast food restaurant, Culver's is one of my top picks on the road. Since hubby and I came during the grand opening week, there were definitely people who wanted to check this neighborhood newbie out. The funny thing was that the driver-thru was pretty backed up, but the dine-in patrons were able to be serviced within a five-minute wait. The quality of food was what I would expect from any other Culver's. The order taker accidentally clicked the "plain" option for hubby's burger. He brought it to my attention half-way through consuming his burger and felt strange that the usual toppings that came with a cheeseburger were missing. We then checked the receipt and realized that. Well, it was alright. I believe that one of the crew members would gladly re-make the burger if we mentioned something, yet we really didn't think it was a major deal. We probably would if they weren't busy. Culver's is a pricier chain in comparison to that yellow "M," el rey "B," and some other national and regional competitors. Nevertheless, Culver's workers greet you with a smile, check on the guests, take the trays for you, and wiping down the tables and fountain drink station frequently. If that's the case, the extra $2 or $3 you pay for the meal reflects on the higher standard of customer service. I would say I'm ok with it. The parking lot for this Culver's is a bit unusual. The entrance and exit on Irving Park Rd. are for drive-thru only. If you want to park and eat inside, there is a shared lot behind the restaurant yet walking is very minimal. read more

I have two Culver's in my area but I prefer this location for their excellent employees (which is consistently good @ every Culver's), super fresh food, and fast service. I'm so happy I choose to eat here on my cheat days! The fries were crunchy, delicious, and the right temperature--not greasy or too salty- just right. The burger was absolutely perfect. Their signature root beer is simply the best, but I wish they served it on tap like they used to in the Wisconsin locations I visited when I was growing up. I'm glad to say that their quality has stayed great! read more

Super friendly and I credibly helpful. I appreciated their patience as I was a bit non decisive. Would highly recommend their dining room as they seem to do a lot of drive through business without effecting indoor wait times. Clean space with a lot of open seating. read more

Culver's - undercooked burger - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Kind staff... previously they have screwed-up: missed giving me an item in my drive thru order, not once but twice. But they were apologetic and offered me an upgrade on my next regular-sized order, which they honored. But this weekend it was almost on point, except for they missed giving me a straw on my drink LOL. But why did I give them 4-stars after multiple mishaps? Because they are kind to me as a customer, didn't give me an attitude and was willing to correct the issue. Nobody is perfect anyway. I usually get the custard-of-the-day, cod sandwich and cheese curds. They're yummy! read more
