I have already been to this restaurant quite a lot of times, and I have never experienced anything worse when it comes to their service and, of course, their food. I've always had a great experience and there are also times that I haven't, but nothing close to the worst. This small restaurant is my go-to spot when it comes to fresh and delicious burgers. They also have other good options on their menu, but I always wanted their burger for some good reasons. Their burgers have a nice portion. It is always served freshly cooked and, of course, hot. The patty is so huge that it is almost as big as the bun. The overall taste of their burgers is just delicious. They also have a variety of options when it comes to their burgers. Aside from their burgers, other food on their menu is delicious, like their sides. I always wanted their cheese fries. Their fries are so cheesy and do not get too soggy easily. It even got a nice crunch even though it was covered in cheese. I highly recommend this place. Prices are also very reasonable. Their food is just really delicious. If you are craving for good and delicious burgers in the area, then do not look further because at this place you will definitely be satisfied with the food and the service.

MUST GO!! The burgers and fries are amazing. I’ve lived in the southwest suburbs my entire life and this place is a top 5 burger for me. Quality food, quality people, and quality atmosphere. You can’t beat this place on a warm day. Communal seating is the best part. Everyone sits with each other and enjoys something so simple. Can’t wait to get back!

The best burgers ever! Don’t miss it!

I am on a hunt for the perfect burger. I love burgers. If you give me your favorite, I will go seek it out.Problem is, everyone has their vision as to what the ideal burger should taste like. Some like it greasy, some like it messy, some like the taste of the meat, others want to hide it. That’s why you see places with 5-star reviews and 1-star reviews all for the same burger.Simply put, this is the best burger I’ve had yet. There are others out there that are close, but this is just that little bit better. So much so, that every time I go back, I worry that I will ruin the nostalgia of its perfect record; the nostalgia of knowing that every experience before this was has been exceptional, and that I will somehow destroy those memories with a bad or even simply lackluster experience.But time and time again, this place continues to amaze. I walk away in absolute jubilation, and I just cannot be happier with a burger - that I have found yet.For those trying to decipher if I have the same state of mind as you, or if I will simply disappoint you with what I envision to be the perfect burger – here is what you need to know:-This burger is NOT the greasy flat patty burger, it is the type of burger with quality meat and a thickness; not overdone to death, but has a good pink hue inside - if you fancy an overdone burger, go ahead and ask for it; is messy but a good messy; and lastly, packed with flavor. You can’t go wrong with the types, but my personal cheese choices is Merkts Cheddar. There you have it. The perfect burger. Over and out.Thank you Paradise Pup time and time again.

I can’t give the burgers or the fries a thumbs up even having the munchies. That should tell you something.If you factor in the price I guess you get what you pay for. Reasonably Priced.

Messy and delicious. Fabulous all the time!!

One of the best burgers I have ever had and the onion rings are great ? there is a reason this place is always super busy during the lunch rush.

I've been in the area the last few weeks and decided to stop off and buy a burger. I'm a burger guy but I'm not quite a foodie. So they make a pretty damn good burger here. The benches outside are nice for people to sit down and enjoy their meal. If you're driving by oh, you can call ahead and they'll have your food ready for you. I'll be back here again.

Great place for lunch or a really early dinner (they close at 5…). Love the burgers from here and their speed. Plus with Covid they’ve started accepting credit cards so that makes things a bit easier.

My wife and I waited in line, in the rain for this and were not disappointed. Char burgers and pups were so good, lived up to the hype. New regular customer ?
