This was my first time here. My grandma wanted a burger for dinner and I personally did not want to go to the same old places in the area, so I googled burgers. Which lead me to find Retro Burger. They have pretty good reviews and it is super close to her home, so I decided on going there. They had a decent crowd of people when I pulled up. Major props to one man doing it all alone!! Even taking phone orders. I didn't wait long, maybe 15-20 min am fine waiting for fresh food. I ordered two meals and when I got home, I was impressed. The french fries were good. Not too soft, just the right thickness and flavor. The Burger looked and smelled amazing. My grandma was just raving how good it was. I had the chicken sandwich which was good (I don't eat beef and tbo it is rare I find an amazing chicken sandwich). The ingredents were very fresh and the bun was perfect on both. They only have cans of pop which I prefer. I also, was happy to see the sandwich packaging is compostable, that is bonus points!!! All in all this is a 5 star!! We will be back. Sorry, no photos, we forgot and ate it all. lol read more

Quaint roadside truck styled box, two tables but thankfully the weather was ideal for dining outside despite the wind taking away our napkins. A bit awkward relaxing payment is taken after the eating! Seems a more obvious solution to proving out quality dining in however I bet people forget like we nearly did. Loved the simple menu, many free toppings, excellent options and freshly made beef. Onion rings were surprisingly tasty too. It's a quality burger joint! read more

Best burgers in the neighborhood. Service is excellent, the owner truly cares about your experience. The bacon cheeseburger is top-tier, and the bacon is always crispy! Go for the lunch specials, it's cheaper that way. Go for the takeout option as there are only three tables in the restaurant. It's a bit pricey, but very much worth every penny! Five stars! read more

HIGHLY Recommend!!! Delicious burger and old school with brioche bread yummy. Great little spot for a quick bite read more

Food is very good and fresh. Just a tad pricey. Good place to eat at once in a while. A little too expensive to do it frequently.

This looks like an old school burger stand, easy to miss when driving down Cicero. My mom was getting an infusion across the street so I was looking for lunch in the area. The burgers are amazing! Huge fresh made to order smash burgers with unlimited free toppings. I ate the whole burger and needed a nap afterwards but it was too good to save for later. I will say they are a little pricier than I expected. For a cheeseburger, fries, and Pepsi it was almost $15. In the future, I will only get the burger with unlimited toppings and skip the fries and drink, save myself $5. read more

The bacon cheeseburger was bigger than my hand! The brioche bun and all the ingredients are fresh. The owner, Gus, is friendly and cooks like a pro. read more

Burger was amazing! You can tell the patty was fresh and very well seasoned. Very good sized for the price. Highly recommend! And was quick service. 10/10 read more

Love Love Love the food here. The Burgers are big fresh and the best kind of greasy. It's not the cheapest for a burger, fry, drink combo but everything is made as you order it and its great quality. Its a small business with friendly faces inside that we hope last for a long time in Crestwood. read more

Finally made to this place. So glad I did. GREAT burger! The price is more than reasonable considering what can pay for a burger of that quality. I will be back! read more

Nothing fancy, but sometimes you don't need fancy. Just good burgers, hotdogs & sausages at a good price. The fries were a bit salty, but I'm not a heavy salt person so probably good with everyone else. The staff was amazingly friendly, and the service was quick. Everything was fresh and hot. Great meals - sandwich & fries. read more

Retro Burger - Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Crestwood, Illinois

Literally incredible. I stopped by and got a bacon cheeseburger special and it was phenomenal. The bacon is the thick crispy kind not the crappy soggy microwaved kind, the burger Patty's are thick and Juicy, the bun was toasted, and the onions and mushrooms were grilled to perfection. The fries were really good too but not as much to write home about as that burger just standard shoestring fries that had a decent amount of salt. The only caviot is, it's a little pricey since for a bacon burger with onions and mushrooms with fries and a drink it was about 17-18$. But to be honest it was worth it and I'll definitely come here again read more

Great place to come for an OG style burger. Fairly priced with decent service. Plenty of options to customize without getting too far from a good ole fashioned burger. The bacon was cooked to perfection. Limited seating indoor, more of a take away option, or in the summertime eating outside at their tables. read more

Amazing food, service is good, he makes the food quick and delicious. Retro Burger deserves a 100 star review if I could give it, I would. Best food in Chicago area of all time! read more

Nice little joint with food made fresh to order. My wife had the burger and is well above the average fast food burger. I had the 2 Hot dog special made with fresh quality ingredients. The guy that runs this operation is super nice and checked on us to make sure we were satisfied with our food. Highly recommend!! read more

Retro Burger - 2 Hot Dog special - Burgers Near Me - Crestwood, Illinois

Thought I'd try this place since I live closeby. $20 for a burger and a side of tater tots......and the meat on the burger looked weird and had a strange texture when I was chewing it. Is this 100% beef or something else mixed in??? After I placed the order and tried to hand him my debit card to pay, he sort of turned his back on me and walked away saying he'll take my payment when he's done making the food. Wow, really? What's with the attitude?? They close at 7pm and on 5pm on Saturdays. What kind of a burger place closes early like that? So to summarize: Expensive, weird meat, and attitude. No I won't be returning. read more

Best burger I ever had in a fast food place, I always seen this spot & decided to give it a try. Good decision, I'll definitely be back. Friendly guy running the place. I already told my family about this spot. read more

The burgers are nice and juicy! There are many toppings to choose from without an additional charge.

Great place. Great burgers. Great service. Great place for kids also. Will keep coming back.

I was happily surprised by Retro Burger. The name implies that it comes from the past, however their high quality ingredients and simple, clean aesthetic imply that they are well versed in executing the modern, fast-casual experience. The customer service experience was friendly and efficient. I ordered their burger and fries. They started making my burger as soon as it was ordered. I think my whole order took less than 3 minutes. Everything was super fresh. I loved the warm brioche bun and the fatty, salty patty. The fries were perfectly cooked, their flavor and texture reminded me of a non-crinkle version served by a popular Chicago chain whose name rhymes with "pillows". Everything about my experience was top notch, and I look forward to my next visit to experiment with toppings including avocado, feta, and fried egg. read more

Fantastic burger and fries! You can tell by the quality that they use fresh ingredients. I've been here a couple of times now and haven't been disappointed yet. Honestly, I don't understand some of the negative reviews. "They don't give out free water...". What? Is this 1986? Or, "my fries were cold when I drove home, so they weren't good." Sheesh. Try eating the food, when it's freshly prepared, (it's always freshly made ), or don't drive to Tennessee and expect it to still be warm, and it'll be delicious! read more

I have yet to try a burger here, but their Chicago Dogs are absolutely perfect. Cheese fries are the "McDonald's thin-style" kind, which are very tasty and absolutely HUGE, perfect for sharing. Mozzarella sticks were solid & the marinara sauce was sooo good and came out warm. Give this place a shot in lieu of your usual hot dog joint. It's great! I'll be back again and again. read more

This is excellent stuff! Best burger we have had in some time - juicy, cooked and accompanied with great customer service! We hadn't realized they were closing when we pulled into the parking lot, and they stayed, cooked our food, and treated us well (and the burgers and cheesy fries were delicious)!! If we were local, this would be the new burger joint we would frequent. read more

Probably the best burger you gonna eat around town very nice staff owner is a excellent guy fries were amazing Burger was amazing probably the best burger I've ever in my life hands-down must stop read more

Wow! Cheeseburger was juicy and flavorful! Best burger I've had in some time. Fries were a little overdone, but still good. Highly recommend! read more

Burgers are well seasoned and large. Fries are also tasty. Staff are extremely friendly. This may be my favorite burger spot.

Great cheeseburger and hotdog, 10/10. The owner was very nice as well. Good service. We will definitely come back

There were a lot of ways to customize your burger. And lots of other choices on the menu. I ordered a burger, and tater tots. The burger was made fresh, and the potatoes, deep fried. The portions generous. It was all delicious. If you want a fast, fresh burger, this is the place. read more

Great, fresh, made-to-order burgers and hotdogs to go. It's a small place, seating is just a few high tops. Good place to grab food on the way home. read more

Best Burgers in the south suburbs. Always fresh great topping selections! I have been 3 times in 2 weeks.

Had the cheeseburger and cheese fries. Very salty overall, both the burger and the cheese sauce on fries. Also, the cheese fries came 'smothered' instead of with a cup on the side. I didn't ask because I figured in a cup. Would have preferred to choose the option. read more

Retro Burger - Cheeseburger and cheese fries. Ask for cheese sauce in a cup, if that's what you prefer. They don't ask and put on top otherwise.. - Burgers Near Me - Crestwood, Illinois

Horrible customer service. The food isn't even worth it with the attitude of the workers in there. Overall it's mid and the way they treat people is not okay. read more

The HAMBURGER was Fire!!! Excellent! Seasoned just right. Good service as well. Highly recommended.

I ordered a #1 (Cheeseburger meal) and an order of cheese sticks. This is easily the best burger I've had in years. Fresh beef, soft brioche bun and fresh toppings. The cheese sticks were a bit salty, but the burger and fries were amazing. Definitely going back this week. read more

My coworkers and I always order food from here at least twice a week. Mainly chicken sandwiches, burgers , and salads. My favorite is the Greek chicken salad with olives and feta cheese and some veggies on top. Love to order the fries extra crispy. They're delicious and thin. It is a small spot but don't let the outside stop you from going in and ordering some good food. read more

Nastiest ,driest burger I have ever had the misfortune of eating. For a guy who claims with a cocky attitude that "this isn't my first rodeo" as you are explaining what you want,he couldn't of made a crappier burger. Beef was dry and tasteless;bacon was unrecognizable as such. Will never return and will definitely NOT recommend to anyone that I like. read more

Found this gem on Yelp. They use 8 oz. Black Angus ground beef for their burgers. You dont need a double burger. I wanted to try a hotdog but I was stuffed after the burger. The place is small with limited seating but the flavor is big. There is no public restroom. More of a take out place but you can eat in. read more

Great place for a great burger. Must warn you to start with the single burger if it's your first time. It was mind and it filled me to capacity. Great shoestring fries with melt cheese. Jalapeño poppers and fried mushrooms. Fresh ingredients and more reasonably then so called high end burger places. That's just the food! Customer service adds to the favor of the food. Great place!!!!!! read more
