“So far the only burger that gets me driving to Chicago from Schaumburg at night. If you are wondering if it’s worth it // it really is. The cheese is so flavorful, the burger meat tastes delicious and juicy. It is literally the best burger I have ever had. Please try this place it is literally a godsend 200/10”
“This food was so fire. I got a burger and it was so good. I love the fries too.”
“I would say you will have to try to know if you like it or not, i like the seasoning of the burger but i would say it’s a bit oily and hard to keep it together. I did enjoy my gladiator burger very much. The zinger burger style is for sure different than what I usually had at other places, it has some kicks in it. Overall I like this place but not crazy enough to come back often. Staffs are super nice and friendly, store is busy and they take time to make food by order.”
“Worst food ever. Chicken was spoiled and smelled horrible. Would never go there again. Absolutely don’t recommend.”
“I ordered the Nashville Broast Chicken (leg and thigh), but unfortunately, the meat was undercooked and still raw inside. When I brought this to the staff’s attention, the employee seemed unsure how to handle the situation and told me, “it’s uncooked but you can eat it,” which was quite concerning. The place did not appear very clean, and the night service seemed disorganized. Overall, I had a disappointing experience and hope management improves food safety and staff training.”
“Loved the place, they are professionals, take care of their customers and have amazing food!”
