4.0 of 5 stars. Nancy K. didn't go here. They don't cut their burgers in half.Ever. I've been going here for 30 years so I know.

Yelp.com Review - by Alex I.

2.0 of 5 stars. The burgers and the atmosphere kind of remind me of a way more Caucasian Casey's in Detroit. Old, beat up, really not that great, makes you feel uncomfortable, and only worth a return trip if you live...

Who Knows What Is Growing On The Tables

The worn conditions of the tables makes you wonder what is growing on them. Germs, sticky yucky. No professional server, just some guy from the back in an outdoor jacket probably because it was so cold in...

5.0 of 5 stars. Best burgers anywhere. They have really good cheddar balls. Way better food then Culver's in which people seem to brag about. I assume they brag about this place because they have never been to...

Nothing Fancy just a great local place

Goldy's is a simple place. Simple menu, simple decor, and simply the best burgers. This is a neighborhood place, not a corporate tavern, it is family owned and operated. The Royal Blue Burger is my favorite....

Yelp.com Review - by Fred S.

1.0 of 5 stars. Like Russell's Barbeque and Parky's Red Hots, Goldyburgers is a near-West suburban "legend". But just like those other two places, Goldyburgers is just a tired, run-down place running on the...

Best burger by Mary C. at InsiderPages

This is the best place to get a burger if you eat it with everything or with nothing at all this burger is juicy and will make you hungry for the next time you come.. The atmosphere is low key and very casual.

3.0 of 5 stars. that was indeed a tasty burger (although the fries were kinda subpar), but i can't for the life of me figure out how two people managed to spend fifty bucks on two burgers and two rounds of beer.

Not that great

I kept seeing all of these best burgers in Chicago lists and Goldy Burger was always near the top, so I had to try it. I went there mainly for the burger, not the atmosphere or to hang out and party. The...
