The ordering experience was great, Riley took my order right away and was accurate. She was very personable. There was a bit of a wait, but it was time well spent for great food. Speaking of which, the burgers, fries, and milkshake were delicious. And the food was not at all greasy. I highly recommend the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger. The place was spacious and very clean and neat. Next time I think I'll eat in. And perhaps pick up some Oberweis stuff, too. A very classy place for burgers. They're a bit pricey, but once you taste the food, you'll know where the money went. Do I recommend That Burger Joint? Yes indeed! read more

Terrible, terrible experience. The place looked like it was closed, even though it's shared with Oberweis and that place was packed. No one to greet you, all workers were in the back. All the baskets were filled with fries for who knows how long just sitting there and the fry station was disgusting. It looked like it wasn't cleaned since they opened. All tables dirty inside and out. We still gave them a chance and ordered. Big mistake. I just ended up throwing it away and talking to the manager, who was a kid and didn't seem to care. Never again for them or Oberweis. read more

Like the service of them giving you a number to place on your table, so they can bring your food over when it's done. Had the patty melt with Large size of fries which was large enough to share. The patty melt was a bit salty, but was greasy good. It is cut in half, but they didn't cut it all the way down. So had to grab a plastic knife to cut the bottom bread. My husband got the bacon burger he said it was good. Fries are crispy and not soft or soggy. You can order your shake with the food. But it was nice to be able to walk over to the counter at Oberweis to see what they offer and order there. As the two restaurants are connected. Also, Oberweis had the chess games. read more

Actually they used to make a decent burger for the price. Unfortunately after the pandemic they got rid of their spicy chipotle with avocado burger which gave me no reason to stop by as frequently. I went there a few times and the burger was a hit or miss. The food is not as fresh as it used to be and the last time some overzealous teenager put too much salt on the fries that my blood pressure went through the roof. Had to throw that away and drink a gallon of water. I want to like it but my experiences have not been great lately. Wish they would be more fresh and consistent. read more

Great quality for a fast food joint! I usually don't enjoy a smash burger but their's was darn good! Their fries are really good too! It was neat that they're connected to Oberweis. Great opportunity to order a milkshake to dunk your fries read more

Best delivery burger I've ever had. Wish the pickles popped a bit more, but everything else was awesome. Can't wait to try it hot off the grill. read more

Honestly, this rating has nothing to do with the quality of the food and *everything* to do about the service. Here's a pro-tip: don't accuse your patrons of lying about an order. News flash, if we're already ordering overpriced food, we're not going to lie about a missing fry. Oh, and thanks for not wearing any hat/hair net. Getting a long hair with a burger is just the cracker-jax surprise this meal needed. read more

Delicious burgers! We love this place! Equal to Five Guys!! Great variety on the menu, too.

This is my favorite burger joint in Naperville. Are usually end up getting some oberweis while I am over here because they share a location. Today I got "That burger" Which is a double hamburger on a pretzel bun. While I was sampling peppermint ice cream I got suckered into a shake, no ragrets. This place is always extremely clean and the people that work at both are friendly. read more

Over priced McDonald's style cheap thin cheeseburger. My bun was literally massively thicker than the meat, and the bun itself was stale and hard as a rock. All you can drink Oberweis milk is nice, apart from the unsightly and gross fountain drink area that looks as if it hadn't ever been cleaned. With that said the girl working the counter was very nice. read more

I have to tell you that this is the best Burger Place around, I would never go anywhere else in Naperville!!! I've never had a bad experience with them; they're always very accommodating, nice and on top of it, they always get my order right! I would definitely recommend The Steakhouse Burger, it's full of flavor and the peppercorn mayo brings the whole dish together. My kids love it! I have 5 children, and they're always hungry; a young girl named Audrey is so kind to them. All in all, That Burger Joint is the place to go when you need something quick and good to eat! read more

Wow! I have no idea how someone can give this place a bad rating. The food is delicious. I'm a big burger guy, I love trying new places, and I'm not exaggerating when I say these are the best fries ever had. The burger was so good. The service was extremely friendly. Ethan took my order with a big smile and tons of positivity. I stumbled upon this place by accident, and I will become a regular customer now that I know this place exists. read more

I am not sure what the big deal is about this particular place. A buddy of mine who lives in the area suggested it and it was really just average for it's type (burger and fries joint), and is actually pretty pricey to boot. You order from the counter, take a number, and then have a seat while you wait for your food to be brought out to you on a tray. The place is incredibly clean, I will say that much, which is critical for a place that has an open grill that can make everything you touch slimey if they do not keep up on sanitation. There is also an attached dessert station to your right that I did not partake in, but I must admit the concoctions that were being delivered to tables near me certainly looked delicious and had a great presentation. If you order a burger or chicken sandwich "with everything" be prepared for it to be extremely messy. Granted that I am a "typical guy" and do not really give a shit about such concerns, but I think I went though about 10 napkins before I polished off the sandwich. Some dainty girl might be in for a bit of a challenge. The chicken sandwich was good, but nothing really special that you could not get from Chick-Fil-A at a far reduced price. Fresh cut fries here are decent sized, extra crispy and were really quite tasty. Timing is everything when you show up to a place and get fries, so maybe I just got lucky and they made a fresh batch. They are served in an a large beverage cup that is overflowing onto your tray and they do not skimp in the slightest. No need to opt for the size large here unless you are just extremely hungry. Overall, this place is just OK. For the same price I could get a much better burger from Fudruckers and have a cheese pump for my fries. I try to eat pretty healthy most of the time, so when I splurge on stuff like this I try to make it worth my while. It's not quite up to that level of sacrifice in my book. read more

That Burger Joint - Chicken with fries - Burgers Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

This was my sons pick for a friday night dinner. He loves cheeseburgers so to a burger joint we went. Their menu has 2 types of burgers, a junior burger and their regular big burger. They also have a chicken sandwich and hotdogs. I ordered a junior cheeseburger on a pretzel bun. I like that they have so many toppings to choose from, most of them are free. I also ordered fries. My burger was good, nothing out of the ordinary and nothing out of this world but it was edible. The meat was good, the toppings fresh and the bun was tasty. After our dinner we walked to the other side which is an Oberwise and my son got a milkshake. The restaurant was clean and all of the employees were friendly. I would go back if my son asks but I won't go out of my way. read more

Burger was cooked to order. However I was not asked to what doneness I wanted it, but it was juicy and cooked the way I like by happenstance. Seasoned correctly and the toppings were fresh and tasty. One weird thing is they ask whether it is eat in or to go. Why they ask I don't know. Everything comes in a bag like 5 guys, whether you eat in or not. The fries are fresh cut shoestring style, not the big meaty kind like 5 guys. I actually like the burger here better than 5 guys though. Price for a double patty burger, small fries and a drink was about 10 bucks, not too bad. The horseradish spin on the Big Mac sauce was pretty good, but I'm glad I got it on the side. One cool thing is that milk is the same price as soda with unlimited refills from the chilled self-serve dispenser. read more

I was really in the mood for a tasty malt and figured a That Cheese Burger would adorn my beverage. This latest visit was very enjoyable and the service was spectacular. He also cooked a good burger and it's a bonus to be served quality meats. Pretzel bun is an option, so I went with it. Of course the Chocolate Malt served in a frosted chalice was a treat. $13 out the door for a "Pulp Fiction" rockin shake and a double burger wasn't unreasonable. read more

Average burger joint, plus is Oberweiss partners with it for tasty shakes or you can move into Oberweiss part of shop and order from their menu. Good fries, not too greasy, good flavor. Chicken tenders made with real fillets not processed chicken, breading is minimal. For burgers nice choice of toppings. Clean place and friendly staff. read more

Burger: was good, but nothing to go out of my way for in the future. Fries: Terrible. Yes they're fresh cut, but no flavor at all. Just plain, fried sticks of potato. **Milk: Awesome!! $2.00 for all-you-can-drink Oberweis white or chocolate milk?? Absolutely a steal of a deal. (Great service though. Manager came to table and asked how everything was.) read more

I was working around the corner and wanted a burger so I searched on here and saw this place. Read the mixed reviews and was hesitant but decided to try it. I don't understand the bad reviews! It's pricy but it's a very good burger. Hot fresh juicy. Good fries also. I used the garlic aïoli for dipping. Deeelicious read more

Not the best burger I've ever had, but certainly not the worst. Less greasy than Five Guys. I got a "That Burger" with cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo on a regular bun. I realized too late that the burger I ordered had 2 beef patties. So 2 bites in and 3 fries and I'm now being admitted to the hospital for being in a food coma. The fries have a fresh cut look with almost a Burger King fry style crust. Very good with the "smokey" seasoning(my dad says it's just seasoning salt). My kids shared a Jr. with cheese, which was pretty much untouched because they loved the fries so much. Also, I admit that I made a questionable decision and let them drink chocolate milk at 5pm. BUT it was Oberweis chocolate milk and there were free refills. Meh, don't judge me, it's summer vacation. Service wise, great staff. Very patient and informative. They brought the food out to us, which was not expected, but helpful indeed. read more

Great burger! Fairly simple concept, you order 1 or 2 patties then tell them what type of bun and toppings. Lots of good fresh toppings to choose from. I opted for a double with cheese on a pretzel roll and fries. They cook the burgers fresh, right before your eyes, they don't cook anything before it is ordered so you know your burger will be fresh and hot every time. The order of fries was HUGE. It is attached to Oberweis so if you can order an Oberweis milk shake to go with your burger if you so choose. I will definately return. read more

I liked the burger...a bit greasy but otherwise tasty. I love that its connected to oberweis so we could order shakes at the same time. Not somewhere I would go to often or else I would get obese but definitely worth it if im in the area. My daughter loved the touchtunes jukebox so she can hear her hand picked music. The fries were good...not the best I've tasted so just to save on at least a few calories I wont get it next time. Its also nice the place smelled like ice cream. Theres no way I could resist ordering the shake but I could definitely do without the fries :). It was clean and the food was prepared very fast. Simple menu...hot dogs, burger or chicken sandwich. Makes it easy to decide what u want to eat. Price was ok. My favorite is still Smashburger down the road on 59. There's also five guys so theres definitely choices but this joint is also a good option read more

A friend said, "the burger tastes like it was made with dog meat." Fortunately, it's not true. I doubt he even knows what dog meat tastes like. I'm happy to report that That Burger Joint, aside from have a clumsy name, is a good place to eat. Let's break it down. Atmosphere: -the restaurant was clean and cool. An industrial look with warm wooden benches and tables. It's very modern and brightly lit. You aren't going to want to sit there all day, but you'll enjoy sitting there for a meal. The sounds in the restaurant are a range of orders being barked, a sizzling grill, and soft music in the background. Don't expect to have a great conversation over the noise, but nothing stands out as annoying either. What's unique is that it's attached to an Oberwise, so you can conveniently grab some ice cream after dinner. Food Quality: Everything tasted hot and fresh. They serve a smashed style burger and natural cut fries as the go-to item. I think the burger was missing the signature crispy edges that are the achievement of smashed-style, but it was tasty nonetheless. The fries were good as well but I thought could've been cooked a minute or so longer. I ordered a double cheese burger with grilled mushrooms, american cheese, and mayo which is what I always get when I'm trying a new burger place. Ordering is as simple as choosing the item (a burger in this case), the number of patties (one or two), and then your toppings. $.50 upcharge for cheese, $1.00 upcharge for bacon. You also have the option of regular bun or pretzel bun. I don't get pretzel buns but my "dog meat" friend said the pretzel bun was good. They don't don anything fancy with the fries - just a bit of salt. At the service station where you grab ketchup, napkins, sodas, etc., they have a few additional seasonings that you can apply to your food: cajun, smokey, and celery salt. I was a little zealous with the cajun on my fries - but it was a nice addition that I had control over. Value/Price: You will pay what you expect from these kinds of places. My order was about $11. The portions were good - not overwhelming. They don't skimp but you probably aren't taking anything home. You get plenty of fries if you order a regular. i can't imagine a scenario where one person would want a large. There's little variety. I find this to be good. I like it when restaurants just pick a few things to be good at and stick to it. you can get a burger, a chicken sandwich, or a hotdog. Bam. But it's also pretty limiting if you are with others who don't feel like having a burger. Service: You'll probably have little interaction with the staff because it's one of these no nonsense restaurants where you order up front and collect your food when it's ready. No wait staff and no tipping (thank goodness). Having said that, everyone that interacted with was friendly. I even got an unsolicited "have a great day" when I left. Notes: I'd recommend this place if you'd like to grab a quick burger with a higher than fast food quality and not deal with the frills of sit-down restaurants. I can't help but directly compare this place to the superior 5 Guys mostly because it's located in the same parking lot at this location. I wouldn't turn down an invitation to TBJ, but if it's just me and my money, i'm walking across the lot. They don't have rootbeer. :( read more

Middle of the road in an expressway of new burger joints. Nothing here makes them stand out. To start how can a burger joint that touts their pretzel buns be out if pretzel buns??? Shift manager said the order would be in tomorrow. Second question, how is a burger joint attached to a dairy out if chocolate milk??? Once again manager said they should receive their order tomorrow. The fries are frozen and not fresh like 5 Guys a mile away, the meat was cooked to order but gray in color and rather salty. The bun was very similar to a McDonald's fish filet. Won't be going back. Can't see th lasting long. read more

We gave this place a go on Saturday afternoon. The good? Big fry portions and all-you-can-drink Oberweis white or chocolate milk. They are connected to Oberweis, so you can also get shakes to go with your meal (we didn't get them that day, but from experience Oberweis shakes rock!). It's a little weird how one restaurant merges into the other, but there is a clear line of separation with a big beam and drastic differences in theme, color, etc. The bad? I got the Spicy Chicken which was on their LE menu. The spicy slaw was really wet, and made the whole bottom bun a slimy mess by the time we got it to the table (he chicken portion was generous and very juicy though). The fries weren't very exciting either. Also, the area with the drinks had little bugs flying everywhere---kinda gross.... Pretty sure we won't be coming here again, but it's not the worst. read more

Couldn't try because they were too busy trying to close before closing time ! Sad ! Get your shit together

Fries were good but it's a burger joint! Our burgers were done but not hot. Warm at best. Perhaps the cold condiments effected it but shouldn't have. Simple place. Nice industrial decor. We will try it again but prefer Tom and Eddies of this for taste and overall burger. Oh if you get the junior - skip the pretzel bun. The bread is too big for the burger. read more

Tried this place because I was curious about it. I got a junior burger with cheese and your typical burger toppings (ketchup, mustard, mayo, lettuce, onion-raw, and pickles). The burger was only so-so. I felt like they didn't season their meat. So I put some of the cajan seasoning on it and it made the burger 10 times better. The fries were MAGICAL! Add the cajan seasoning and they are the bomb! I also dipped them in the petal sauce which made me feel like I was dying - in a good way. The petal sauce itself was liquid gold! If you don't try this, you would have partially wasted your trip there. All in all, pretty good place :) read more

Very disappointed in the lack of accountability and poor customer service. We ordered cheeseburgers thru dood dash. They are otdered by default with lettuce, tomatoes and onion. They arrived without. We called to speak to the mgr Andrew. He blamed door dash. The error is clearly at the store level. Either way, you would take care of you customer...$5 off, a free fry, something. No. Andrew stuck to blaming door dash and offered no resolution and basically gave us the "too bad". Too bad I can't rate zero stars. Too bad We will never eat at your joint again. read more

This new place is the ultimate burger place in just about every way. The service is fine, the burgers are great, the fries are great too. They also have a winning business model from the looks of it. A few minutes after I wrote this review, the store owner actually reached out to me to say that the burgers are in fact never frozen so I edited this review accordingly. read more

The cashier Donna and Jordan were great! They were so sweet and helpful! I would definitely recommend this place to other people!

Two horrible experiences in a row. On our second to last visit to TBJ, both of our burgers were still raw in the middle--very much undercooked--we didn't finish eating them. To make things worse, we were there at 9:30pm after a football game. There was a mob of 50 to 60 unruly teenagers without adult supervision. We literally couldn't get out of there fast enough because the place was jam-packed full of kids and there were many more outside in the parking lot, preventing people from driving away. My boyfriend said "we're never going there again." Stupid me, I should have listened, because I went back and the experience was so bad, that I now vow to never go there again. On my last visit, I ordered a junior cheeseburger and small fry. I ended up sitting on the Oberweis side because all the tables on the TBJ side were filthy with food scraps and garbage. After ten minutes, I went up to see if my food was ready. It wasn't. After twenty minutes elapsed, I went back up, hoping my food would be ready. There was nothing, no completed orders, no food cooking, no one in line. The young female employee asked if I needed anything. I responded, that I was waiting for my order. She exclaimed, that there were no orders. I showed her my receipt. She walked over to the ticket printer and lo-and-behold, there was my order ticket still sitting there. No one ever made my order. Despite the fact that this young female employee was the one cooking and assembling the burgers, being nearest to the ticket printer, she very quickly started making excuses, blaming the young male cashier, that it was his fault because he didn't tell her to make the order. Now, she goes in back, and the two are bickering back and forth, blaming each other. In the meantime, there is NO ONE making my order. The manager comes to the counter and assures me that they will make my order quickly--yet it took another ten minutes for them to do so. She also gave me a refund. Such a horrible experience. These two young employees had plenty of time to goof around and socialize and complain about the spatulas--yet they had NO time to cook orders, NO time to clean the dining room. Extremely unprofessional. This whole experience was twenty minutes of two employees goofing around regarding "I like the white spatula' ... "no, the green spatula is better" ... "no, the white spatula is better" ... "no, the green spatula" ... back-and-forth. What a bunch of spoiled brats. With this kind of unprofessionalism, I expected John Quinones from "What Would You Do?" to step out. I guess TBJ has really low expectations of their employees, and apparently no management oversight. read more

Best. Burger. Ever. Fries were outstanding. I loved the That Burger with cheese on a pretzel bun I got. They had a couple dipping sauces - one called petal and one ranch. The petal seems like ketchup meets horseradish. Both were really good, but I'd probably lean towards the petal sauce as it is more unique. I am not entirely sure whether That Burger Joint is part of Oberweis or if they just work together somehow, but the food is definitely on par with what Oberweis sells. What was really slick is that I could order my Oberweis shake when I ordered my burger. My wife had the chicken sandwich and she had equally good things to say. The kids had hot dogs, and they are, well, hot dogs. I'm not really a hot dog lover. I guess I am happy because they are as "good-for-you" as hot dogs can be I suppose. As any restaurant, they offer unlimited soda refills, but their twist is that you can also get unlimited Oberweis milk and chocolate milk refills. I asked if our kids could just put their heads under the nozzle, and I got a strange look (not really). But I am serious - the milk is free refills ... even on Oberweis chocolate milk. Definitely our new favorite for a good-but-pretty-quick dinner. Particular if we want dessert. read more

Nice variety of toppings, but on a $7 burger, I would expect a choice of something other than a slice of processed American cheese, and some options such other than plain Jane fries would be nice (sweet potato fries, maybe?). $50 for three burgers, three shakes, and 2 large fries? Next time I'll pass. Limp fries and greasy food lose 1 more star. read more

Burger was gross. Thin little patty with no flavor. Bun was burnt. Fries were tasty. Won't be going back.

Took Grilled chicken off the menu and only have crispy. My wife and I don't eat need so without a healthy option, this family of 5 will not be back. Kids like the burgers! read more

After a 2nd visit yielding disappointing results, I've decided to write a review. Order: "That Burger," on a pretzel bun and a side of fries / Cost $9.21 Experience: Not good. Angus beef? More like Angry Beef . I realize this is "just a burger joint" but, for the folk preparing the burgers...please...act like you care and put an effort into the sandwich. My two burger patties were just sorta tossed onto the bun and smacked of a preparer who really couldn't care any less. Picture your "junk drawer" at home...now picture the burger version of that...utterly hideous. I know it's a simple menu and all meat is certified humane but...the way it was thrown onto the bun was certainly less than civilized. Angus beef? More like Angry Beef The taste was ok but, the burger patties were a bit greasy. Not juicy...just greasy. The fries? Oy vey. The shoestring fries are named appropriately...sorta like the shoestrings in your favorite old baseball cleats. Not quite soggy but...not quite crispy...just sorta flaccid...with just enough grease to give your lips a nice Suzy Chapstick sheen. Lastly, even though I'd asked for a pretzel bun...I got a regular bun instead. Sorta sucks b/c...I really like pretzel bread. After two disappointing experiences, I think I'll visit the sandwich shop a few doors down (Fontana's) from here on out...their meatball subs are easily the best in the area and they prepare the food like they care... read more

Well, we came here for my lunch break and it was disappointing. The food wasn't anything amazing, it was just average and the service was a little weird. We came in and were served right away, but as soon as we sat down a line formed and there was no one there to help people for 5 minutes. It's just a little disappointing to see that the cashier was just sitting on her phone and then walked to the back and didn't come back out for five minutes while people waited. read more

For weeks late last year I saw signs at the former Caribou coffee shop called "That Burger Joint" which is owned by Oberweis. Incidentally which is next door. I kept my eye opened every time I passed by route 59 to see the progress. Last Friday 2/14/14 I decided to pass by and take a look. They were open! There was no "Grand Opening" that I saw. Just a "now open". When I walked in it had a modern sorta industrial/rustic decor. Concrete floors with rustic looking table. 4-5 booths and maybe 5-7 tables. They had 3 LCD monitor turned portrait mode, displaying pictures of the food in a rotation slide show. The workers were attentive and immediately asked if I needed help choosing hamburgers. The cooking area is to the right of the two registers a larger grill where up 5 works cook orders. It shares the space with the Oberweis. Basically they removed a wall and joined both storefronts. It was weird how the two decors didn't seem to mesh. Industrial vs Old timey. They have a neat Juke box called Touch tunes. You get to select music from a list or search and make a playlist so everyone can hear in the restaurant. Strangely you could only hear it in the burger joint section and not in the Oberweis section. Also you can take photos sort of like a photo booth which you could post to facebook or email to yourself. They are trying to separate themselves from other burger places by saying their meat is never frozen and is hormone free. Their hot dogs are all natural beef and free from nitrate as well as the chicken being free of anything artificial. The menu is relatively modest. The have 2 types of burgers "That Burger" which I ordered is two patties of Angus beef. which you can choose either plain bun or pretzel bun and "that junior Burger"which is the same but single, geared towards kids. You get your usual condiments and topping that you'd expect on a burger. But they have what they call petal sauce, which taste to me like mayo/ketchup/horseradish. It tasted good but not too spicy. They also have hot dogs price for 3 dollars.. Chicken breast same options as the burger. They all run approx 6 dollars. The only add on are slices of bacon for a dollar. It did look good though. They use presses to keep the bacon from getting well wrinkly. The burger which I ordered was a "That Burger" was huge which was wrapped in foil lined paper numbered to correspond one on the receipt. I joked it could feed a family of four. The size of a CD or so. But much tender than one. It was thoroughly cooked through, but not over cook thankfully. But was moist. So much so that the bun started to fall apart. Perhaps that's why they offer pretzel bun as a option. The skin on fries were good. Almost julienne. Not too salty and not too oily. It was served up in a large cup. Their drinks were standard fair. But they also had the Oberweis milk and chocolate milk. The good part was the milk as well as the drinks were free refills. Good for parents whos kids love the milk. The staff was good, constantly walking around asking how the food was and if we needed anything else. Tables were rarely left dirty as it was cleaned asap. Room for tables won't be a issue yet. I see this place giving local burger eateries competition when people want a burger and desert. At the end it is a good place. The burgers were very good. Though I do favor broiled burgers as opposed to grilled. I still enjoyed the burger. The price is on par with going to a Portillo's but not as much as Red Robin. This will def be my new go to place for burgers because of it's quality of food and location. read more
