Don't come here expecting real Italian style lasagna, there is only spinach, meat sauce and pasta. Oh, and a layer of cheese melted on top. SMH. read more

Food is great. Every time I order something from here though something goes wrong. Three times now yelp has had to cancel my order because they didn't make the food, gave it to the wrong driver, etc. When it does come I'm always missing something. Jerk sauce that comes with the jerk tacos? Foget it. Au Jus on the side? Nope. This happens even when I do a carryout order. I want to keep ordering from this place because the food is good and it's a small operation. They make it hard to be patron though. read more

I tried their taco Tuesday special. You get 3 tacos & the 4th one for free, for $7 and some change with no drink and i wasn't pleased at all. To me it wasn't enough flavor, the meat tasted a little funny, I'm guessing because it's turkey meat, but overall it didn't taste or look good. I didn't get no sauce to put on my tacos, such as red or green sauce....kind of dry!!! read more

Just Turkey - Taco Tuesday special....buy 3 get 4th one for free - American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Just had the worst experience. Cashier was so rude and out of it. Never coming back here. I'm not sure how they train employees but it's sad. Cashier walks up to the register and just stares me down. No hi, no how can I help you. What makes if funny is the owner was standing right there. Unbelievable. Please put your money elsewhere. I try to support businesses in the neighborhood but will not support this one. I wish I can give no stars. She made me feel like saying hi to her was a problem. The upload of the comments he said to me as a customer was deleted somehow on the fb page. But I just uploaded it here. read more

Just Turkey - Worst response ever from the owner. He is super arrogant and unprofessional - American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Excellent!!! Amazing service, great food. Not as impressed with the hot link-- it's not hot, and it was really dry-- but the turkey tips??!? Holy cow. When I'm craving hot links I'll still go to Lem's or Honey 1, but for anything else this is now my spot. read more

I was craving a burger and let my boyfriend pick. I haven't been to this establishment in maybe 5 years, but I had fond memories of the sauce and tips so I figured based upon my own recollections and reviews I figured I was in good hands. Mind you, once stepping into this place of business there is a man whom I later overheard was selling DVDS. This fellow had a whole office situation in here!!! Many cords & gadgets & clutter around him. Stationed right in the window! This was a bit off putting. Smh... The wait was longer than normal "fast food" but for some reason we assumed it was due to the juicy, hand packed, turkey goodness we were going to receive. Boy were we wrong! Once biting into our burgers we realized that these were merely that of a Sara Lee frozen turkey patty, over cooked and not seasoned! Total bummer. The savior of the day were the French fries, so glad I ordered them. The sauce was just as amazing as I remember, but I would like to note in not sure if it's Harold's Mild Sauce as mentioned. For crinkle cut fries, they were actually fries and not soft and soggy. This is what saved them from getting 1/2 stars. All in all, I would return but I think I may just stick to the turkey tips! Burgers are a bust. read more

My daughter kept bugging me to get this for her cause she's been craving it. So I thought I'd be nice and pick her order up. I got some for myself as well. Food was excellent! I had turkey tips! I should've taken a pic but I ate it all before thinking. My new spot! read more

I have tried many times to support this business and they keep disappointing me! Now, I'm done. Latest of many customer service lapses: I have tried many times to support this business and they keep disappointing me! Now, I'm done. Latest of many customer service lapses: I drive out of my way to pick up this order I arrive to the cashier smiling and laughing stating "oh yeah, we ran out of turkey tips". What? Why didn't you call me to let me know? She only points to the phone and says "we can't see the number when you call". If this is the case, you would ask each customer for a call back number for these types of situations. Customer Service 101. So, I asked to speak with a manager immediately. She takes my number because no one is ever available right now. I never received a call back nor offered any reasonable accommodation for this inconvenience. Not only will I give this review, but I will make sure that none of my friends/family patronize this restaurant with the current ownership. Look for social media posts soon! read more

Great friendly service that was prompt and got my order correct. The food was cooked fresh and was made to order, walked in at 12:40 and had my food within 10-12 minutes. I order a turkey burger meal which came with fries and a pop for less than 8$. It smelled absolutely delicious in the restaurant and I got full. The icing on the cake for me, is that I love supporting black owned businesses, especially form the neighborhood I grew up in! read more

It was alright , I had turkey tips a small order which is over sized for me but I'll save the rest . Very tender although a few pieces were hard. Fries were good . My only problem is she made my food soon as I arrive and paid and she didn't give me fresh fries. I am a high paying customer for my of my favorite restaurants and if your gonna make my food in front of me make sure it's fresh . 2.5 out of 5 read more

The BEST turkey alternative to casual foods!!! I can once again eat burgers and "polishes"...

This is a meat eater's paradise. Good flavor and less fat. All turkey. No pork or beef. read more

I wish they had more location up north. Best turkey rib tips I have ever had. Plus everything on there menu is really good.

The food here was good -- turkey ribs. The service was absolutely horrible, I almost want to rate them two stars based on the service alone. The front desk attendant refused to accept a coupon that I received from my Verizon UP rewards and she spent the entire time on her cell phone. She should be placed in the back to cook perhaps or trained on how to engage customers. Now that I think about it, I will give them two stars because that experience was horrible. read more

Today I went in for a mini jerk Turkey tip. I asked for my fries to be crispy, normally they're not they be a little soggy. I love the tips so much i hardly care about the fries. But why I get ready to dig into my food and it's cold. Not like I made it home and it was just warm, But like it had been sitting out cold. I waited like ten minutes for the order!! NO WAY IN HELL SHOULD IT HAD BEEN THAT COLD!! I'm never going back !! Y'all ass slipping !! read more

Order from them via Uber eats. They didn't put any sauce on the Turkey tips. Ordered three steak jerk tacos they were dry. I was charged for extra jerk sauce. No napkins. I'm so disappointed. I spent 24.00 dollars. Not ordering anymore. read more

If you're looking for something that is absolutely delicious... Try just turkey. The turkey was succulent the barbecue sauce was on point the corn on the cob had a special rich taste. I believe they use some Cajun salt to help to season the corn. Every morsel was absolutely wonderful. So, if you're looking for great tasty turkey tips try just turkey. I advise you to call before placing your order read more

Hey now! I found another gem! Hubby and I decided to give up (or at least cut back on) red meat. Just Turkey is just what we needed. Albeit some of the dishes aren't the healthiest....it's a start. We used yelp to order through Grubhub. Unfortunately the delivery was late so we had to pick it up. When we arrived there was no record of our order...bummer. No worries...the young lady at the register didn't hesitate w getting our order ready in the spot w no delay. Score! The food was hot, fresh and yummy. I had the turkey tips (plain) and my husband had the jerk tips. They were tasty as well but a little too salty for my liking. I gave them four stars because they are always out of corn...I REALLY like corn. Maybe they should consider removing it from their menu until they re-stock. read more

I tried Just Turkey for the first time today and it was the best decision I ever made. Food was very delicious. I love the BBQ turkey tips with fries. The restaurant was very clean and staff took extra precautions during this pandemic. Great customer service will definitely be back soon! read more

Safety is definitely a concern. The thugs that hangout in front of the restaurants will rob you! I almost was robbed with my child with me plus the lagasana was salty. read more

I drove 19 miles for a turkey burger. Have I lost my d@mn mind? Nope! If you were wise, you would be in your car -- right now -- headed to 43rd and Cottage Grove and getting a serious turkey burger on. This may have been one of the best turkey burgers I've ever had. First off, the drive to JT is lovely. For me, I hop on LSD South and cruise on by the lake until I get to Oakwood. It's a simple drive, but it's really beautiful. Lake Shore Opens up south of I-55 and traffic (usually) eases up. On a clear day, you feel like it's just you, the road and the water. It's a bootleg version of the PCH. Once you get off LSD (heh), take a look around. Yes, these big houses, parks and boulevards you see are not an optical illusion. Kenwood is the real deal. I think some famous guy who lives in DC calls it home. Or, something. Head south and you're at your destination. Don't expect valets, earpieces or sports coats. Park your car (in the lot!), walk your happy self in and look around. When I was there, the dining room was pretty empty. It's just a few tables, big windows and a mounted tv that was airing "The Game" (sister, siiistah). I'm telling you all of this, so a.) you get a feel for the experience and b.) you know to focus on the food. I rarely eat beef. Thanks to that, I miss ham/cheeseburgers. You don't know what you've got til it's gone. Truly. I've had turkey/veggie/etc. burgers, but they aren't the same. But here, realizing the entire menu is turkey products, I started to hope that this may be different. It was. I ordered a double turkey burger with cheese, fried onions, tomato, lettuce, and pickle on a butter bun. Before you judge me, realize that, at times, I eat once every 20 hours or so. I needed this. Oh, and fries covered in MILD sauce. That's right: the best part of Harold's (mild sauce) was about to be all mine -- but with a burger. It took a while for my food to be ready and, initially, I caught an attitude about it. I reigned it in when I realized a.) made to order (no mayo) and b.) this was the real deal. When my to-go order was ready, I thought I was smuggling a baby hippo. This bag was HEAVY. Good sign. I raced home, tore out the fries, did a couple of curls with my burger, cracked open a beer and dug in. ......................... That was a moment of silence. This. THIS! This was a burger! With every bite, I was reminded of what eating red meat tasted and felt like. It was heavenly. The cheese was melted around all of the protein, the bun was thick and crispy. The veggies were fresh and the condiments added to the flavor, rather than hiding it. My fries were stained burgundy for all the mild sauce slathered in their bag. Every bite was potato + vinegar bbq sauce = Ka-POW!. I was getting dead sexier by the bite. But, it was worth it. I wouldn't be able to be naked in front of anyone for months. BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! I don't remember finishing my food. I was in a stupor of meat, potato and hops. I forgot how to speak English. My clothes didn't fit well and my skin smelled of grill. And.it.was.all.worth.it. Why are you still sitting there? read more

The worse ass customer service ever, I'm leaving now and I will never return. I don't give a damn if the food is good, I will not patronize this ghetto ass establishment. The cook yelling cursing as if I'm not at the front counter, just terrible. read more

As I stated, it's all about learning about places in my neighborhood. After a hard bike ride, I was definitely looking for some food. I landed upon Just Turkey by mistake. I was totally shocked because I had ventured to another place in the neighborhood that CLAIMED they had great turkey burgers to be let down. Just Turkey is located right in Bronzeville and East Hyde Park. There is ample seating to bring a small group of friends and offers free Wifi. now I will say that it's hard to choose between Harolds and Just Turkey because they're essentially located next door to one another. But the Turkey won out. I am glad I went. The service was great and the staff was patient and helpful. I had the Turkey Tips and another person ordered the turkey burger. Both were very fresh and tasty. Hey, they even served the turkey burger on a Wheat Bun. The turkey burger was thick and juicy. The turkey tips were pretty good as well. One thing I like is that they didn't drown my tips in tons of bbq sauce. Overall, the experience was great and I will certainly be heading back again for more. read more

This company used to be delicious. I eat here twice a week and the food has been stale for the past few months. It's like whoever is running the place doesn't care anymore. read more

Oh my effin goodness. Where has this place been all my life? Jerk Turkey Salad, Turkey Wrap, Turkey Nachos, Turkey Ribs, Turkey Tips, Turkey Spaghetti, TURKEY, TURKEY, TURKEY. Now as a gal that is one of the forgotten when it comes to meat, this place did not disappoint. I split a small order of turkey tips and fries with a friend and an order of turkey nachos (ground turkey). You might as well have carried us out! Everything was delicious and the service was fantastic. The lady asked if it was our first time and let me try the turkey tips. WINNING! Now what makes all of this even more fantastic - the BBQ sauce. We tried to buy some but it won't be available until June I think. So the next time I go, I'm going to ask if I can build my own nachos or at least ask for some BBQ on the side. My nachos would look as such: Chips, Cheese, BBQ, Turkey Tips, and all the other goodness of toppings. I know I could make this just as easy, but if this is all I want.. why waste, lol. Can't wait to go back! They also have daily specials during the week (i.e. Buy a regular and get a small for free!) read more

Watch out, Food poisoning!!!! On 3/7/19 I was on my lunch break and I want to support one of my local businesses. So I went to Just Turkey because of the good reviews. The reason this review is even getting 1 star is simple because of the wonderful smell of smoked turkey and fast service. Nevertheless, I order a small turkey tip for lunch and the turkey lasagna for a little later. Not knowing I would be in for the night of my life. I became violently ill for the rest of the day; projectile vomiting among other things. Needless to say I will not be a patron of this establishment again. I feel terrible being the one to write this review but I can have someone else go through what i did yesterday. read more

I'm trying to consume less beef and pork. In enters Just Turkey. I ordered the Turkey Burger with everything and grilled onions. This was my 1st experience with a turkey burger so Just Turkey was essentially responsible for my sentiment towards turkey burgers for the rest of my life. So yeah...there's that. Although it tastes nothing like a beef burger, I was pleasantly surprised. The turkey was flavored well and was very tasty. I was a little afraid of it being too salty because that's been my experience with other turkey products like turkey bacon for example. Fortunately that was not the case. The bun also had a nice light buttery taste. I am disappointed that no fries were included with the burger for almost $6. I will return as I am interested in trying new items. read more

Just Turkey has such a variety of items to choose from. I've tried quite a bit of them and haven't been disappointed, including the lasagna, jerk turkey burger, jerk turkey tacos, Italian turkey sandwich, spaghetti, greens, etc. It is my go to place when I want "fast food"because I know that I'm making a healthier choice over the other fast food restaurants out there. read more

I had been looking for a place near me that served turkey polishes and I found one. The fries were seasoned perfect and the turkey polish was delicious. I thought that my wait would be long because there were quite a few people there, but surprisingly it only took about 10 minutes. I will definitely be going back.......oh yeah they were reasonably priced as well. read more

Good food but I'm not ordering from places that don't know how to answer the phone during business hours. Peace.

The workers here are absolute trash. I have been going to this establishment for probably going on 5 years now and I have definitely noticed a change. In the beginning the customer service was wonderful. They used to make you feel welcome by walking in. But over the years, I guess as their clientele grew their attitudes did as well. Every time you walk in this place they act as if they're doing you a favor by making a meal that you PAID FOR. I have even tried to just go every few months now or order through food delivery services to avoid contact with them. But after yesterday I refuse to EVER give this black owned business my money (and yes I am black as well). I called in and they told me 20 min for a small tip, cool. I get there and I'm hearing the cashier telling customers don't ask her about their food because she's not the one making it and then the cook says "if it's not ready then it's not ready. They're going to have to wait". But unfortunately I heard them but wasn't really paying attention because I thought I left my card in the car. I leave out and come back more than 20 min later (so which means I called in more than 40 min ago at this point.) when I walk back in the same cashier and cook are still having nasty attitudes with customers. So when it's my turn I kept asking the smart mouth cashier is my order ready she kept rolling her eyes saying that it should be. So after my third time asking her, I told her that I didn't want to pay until I knew if it was ready or not. The cook yells out "a few more minutes". Of course that irritated me because the cashier said 20 min for a SMALL TIP and it's been well over 40 ministers now. She of course yells at me and says "well I'm not the one making your food sooooooo". I asked her to lose the attitude and of course it went left from there. I'm just completely done. Their attitudes are freaking horrible and I've noticed this for well over a year now but I kept trying. I refuse to order them through Grubhub, ubereats, etc. they tell "support black owned businesses." And quite frankly I don't care what's your race, I don't care about a pandemic or anything. If I'm spending my money in your establishment, not only do I require decent customer service but I definitely require respect and I can guarantee you will not get it here. But the food is good though. Lol. But not good enough for me to keep supporting and dealing with their nasty attitudes and disrespect. read more

Reading everyone elses positive reviews maybe I got the wrong thing. I ordered 2 Turkey Tacos. They had good flavor but they were extremely salty. The turkey spaghetti was aiight. Next time I will order a turkey burger so stay tuned! read more

Good price, good food, good turkey! There are a few tables and a TV but it's not really a cozy, sit down spot. It's a call ahead / pick up place... think Harold's but for turkey! It was convenient to sit and watch some of the game while I was waiting on my order though. I love spicy food so I asked Greg (I think) for his recommendation between the jerk and jalapeno burger. Jerk was the winner and it did not disappoint. I wish I had tasted it before I left because by the time I got home and devoured it, I wanted another one! That's just greedy I know! The flavors were on point and I had no complaints. I ordered corn on the cob instead of fries... eh, bad choice. One bite was enough for me to realize I didn't care for it at all. :-( I can't wait to try other options on the menu though. They have turkey tips, spaghetti, tacos, Italian turkey... you name it! I will be back for sure. read more

Used to be a fan of Just Turkey years ago, I'm honestly not sure if they changed their recipe, have different cooks, or just flubbed my double burger but it was "off" on the seasoning big time. Tasted like nothing. I may or may not try this place again one day, but I'm leaning towards not. The taco I tried was filled with hard old overcooked chucks of turkey (like they used all the old turkey that didn't sell)...it tasted terrible and wasn't worth a quarter. 10.50 down the drain. read more

Yesterday I ordered 3 orders of mini turkey tips, 1 large turkey tip, and 3 jerk turkey steak tacos with only cheese and sauce. I picked up my order and only had the orders of turkey tips and 1 taco that was made ALL WRONG. When I walked back inside, the cashier was on top of her boyfriend on the side of the door. Then had an attitude when I told her my taco was wrong and not only was it wrong, it was the wrong amount of tacos. She then advised me that it'll take another hour to remake the tacos because they ran out of meat and refunded me for that ONE TACO After she refunded me, I walked back to my car and looked inside as I was driving off .. she went right back to hop on top of the guy. It was actually pretty disturbing and unprofessional seeing as though kids and families come in the restaurant. I spent nearly $50 in there and they will never see my money again. The food wasn't as good as the last time either. This is why you can't support all black owned businesses!! read more

Food very very very good and delicious reasonably priced. Me and my wifey got a turkey tacos so good I thought my wife went in the kitchen an cooked them . We also got turkey nachos they gave us a lot of meat,cheese and peppers so much we had some left over. I tried the turkey Italian beef OMG so delicious on wheat bread heaven in my mouth. I recommend this place read more
