๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ The burgers here are amazing. The pretzel buns were a nice surprise and a big plus in my book. They also had live music and a great selection of drinks. I'll definitely be back to try the Crabby Patty, though their signature burger was top tier.

    Totally impressed. A wonderful little indulgence. Tasty cocktails beautifully presented. I started with the Blood Orange Old Fashioned and Cookie Butter Old Fashioned. No, I cannot pick a favorite. We started with the cheese curds and the Capone egg rolls. Fabulous! Husband had the build your own burger with mac and cheese and I had the Proper Burger and loaded tots. And when asked if "bacon jam" was okay on my burger, let me say, it is NEVER a bad addition to a burger. Looking forward to our next trip there

    First time here, and I can say we enjoyed it. The portions were huge, the alcohol was plentiful and the atmosphere was welcoming. Anthony was our server and he was very attentive. My son had the crabby Patty burger and I must say it was seasoned very well. I wasn't that excited about the chicken tostada's, however the homemade fries and lemongrass old fashioned made up for it. Will definitely revisit for drinks and appetizers!!!!!

    Tried Berger Station after a Google search. We will be back! The food is fantastic! We had the tots, burgers and the blood orange old fashioned. My hubby says the old fashioned is excellent and worth the $$. The burgers were perfectly seasoned and the Mac n cheese was the best I've ever had in a restaurant...better than steakhouse quality.

    The "Berger" was Great! It was cooked just right and it was full of flavor. The homemade BBQ chips were very good. I am picky about Mac and cheese and I thought it was pretty good too. The wife enjoyed the chicken sandwhich. I definitely will go back to this place.

    I have visited twice and moved to the area not too long ago, so I am delighted to find something close to home that is very delicious, has excellent food and drinks, and has a great serving staff. I have tried their wings, cheese curds, onion rings, and burgers, and they were all amazing. The mac and cheese I ordered was okay, but everything else made up for it. I will definitely come again. The burgers are around $13, but well worth it. You won't regret your visit. Parking is limited.

    My wife and I stopped in last week for a quick bite. I've been thinking about their burger all week. I ordered the French Onion burger and it was fantastic. My wife ordered a plain cheeseburger and my son absolutely loved her leftovers the next day. Both the fries and tots were delicious. I can't wait to go back.

    I tried the spanish revolution,, LOAdED W JALAPENOS w TATER TOTS. March 2022-Berger on top of a mountain of TATER TOTS. Life is good. We both got the proper burger on a pizza role.. taste great. Our hostess Rebecca. Was fast m friendly. Jun 2022 I tried the pork butt toastatas- they were awesome. The breaded winged were delicious. Tater tots- need I say more. Jul 2022 we tried the nachos w chikin and the char Sui burger w TOTS. Both delicious. I was not a fan of the pork belly on the burger. Our hostess provided great customer service

    Beer selection was awesome.. I definitely had selection anxiety. Luckily Stephanie was able to recommend beers that I enjoyed! She listened to my tastes and by the end of the night I had 5 beers that I had never had before and all of them were great!! Food was great as well as the atmosphere. It definitely exceeded my first impression of the place as we pulled up in the car I didn't think it would be as great as it was!

    We just popped in to see a band & had already eaten. So all I can say, is we will def be going back to eat there SOON!! The menu looks great & we saw the food they were bring out to others....mouth watering! My only issue will be what to choose!! Even tho we didn't order food, I gave it 5 stars goung by what the menu, dishes being brought out & everyone else raving about it! I will update if needed after I eat there, which will be very soon!! Love the clean, cozy atmosphere. The bartender was extremely attentive, even coming to us at our table to see if we needed more to drink, which is pretty rare anyplace else especially considering the bar was busy! ๐Ÿ‘

Tried a couple different beers, they have lots to choose from.I will definitely go back. I want to try one of their Old Fashions Great place!

  • 5/5 Sam S. 4 months ago on Google
    Been here a few times. Everything was great really. Started with the chicken wings and a Manhattan. Nice sauce selection. Iโ€™ve had all the Bergerโ€™s they offer. The Proper Berger is my favorite. The fresh Cut shoestring french fries are absolutely delicious. Grab the deep fried Oreo cookie. Good drinks & good classic rock tunes.

    We have been driving past this place forever and always wanted to try it. Finally stopped and glad we did. Great burger place the front doesn't do it justice. Great menu beer list is on point we are definitely going back. You definitely get your money's worth here will be back soon and they have live music also

    These burgers ๐Ÿ” aren't just carelessly slapped together. They're all well made and whoever thinks these things up, is a burger genius. Beer list is extensive and the servers are very helpful! Burgers are a bit on the pricier side though. Know this going in.

    It was the first time here for me and my family. We loved the burgers and the chicken sandwich. The waitress Gina was super nice. The only thing that I would change is the fries. They were thin and crunchy,. Make them thicker or even offer potato wedges. Other than that 5 ๐ŸŒŸ

    Great spot to grab some good food and drinks fast for eating in or taking out. I enjoyed all of my food and my drinks were great. The price points are affordable and won't break your bank.

  • 5/5 Jason P. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was fantastic. Our server was extremely sweet and kid friendly. I brought my gf an 2 kids here to try some of their specialty burgers. You seat yourself, either outside or in. Waitress was prompt and friendly. The beer and drinks we ordered were delicious. But the burgers stole the show they were absolutely amazing. I had the Crabby Patty. Try it out! Second time going here. Food again was fantastic. Went on a sat around dinner time was pretty busy might want to make reservations. I had had a double barbecue bacon burger my lady had avocado bacon burger w sweet potatoe fries. We also tried the broccoli an bacon mac n cheese everything was amazing. I also tried the Goose Island Beer โ€ข Bourbon County Brand Classic Cola Stout, 14% this was really smooth and bold tasting, very strong.

    Stopped in for lunch to check Berger out. Service was prompt and accurate. Had a burger with bleu cheese crumbles, bacon and hot, wing-style sauce. Nice pretzel bun and good tasting beef. Asked for medium done-ness and it was exactly THAT! =) Had their potato chips as my side which were crunchy and sprinkled with BBQ seasoning. Full bar with plenty of adult beverages..I had only water as I'm watching my soda intake. Tables, high-tops and a bar to sit at for dining. Casual atmosphere... which I like and they had spider webs and spiders up for Halloween decoration. Parking is on the side..pull in spots against the curb...and also some slant spots on the Ridgeland side of the building. Would return again as it's easy access to get to. Just south of where the Chicago Ridge mall strip mall plaza is. Friend says they get their meat from Jack and Pats...an excellent butcher just a bit further south on Ridgeland. Berger is BURGER good!

    Let start off this place was great ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘. I barely make it out because i have a toddler. Berger was great atmosphere was cool and relax ,good music . My food was delicious. My burger was amazing

  • 4/5 Yadira Z. 2 years ago on Google
    They have a great selection of beer which is nice. The beers i had were really good, I like more sour/tart beers and I appreciate they had some. I had the shrimp tacos and was not to impressed, the rice was bland and it was more of the slaw dressing then actual shrimp. I will go back because of the beer selection and next time try a burger.

    I was here this past Monday and all I can say is Go to Jesseโ€™s down the street. They use the same meat and your burger wonโ€™t fall apart and become inedible. They got my burger wrong and There was also a problem with the service there were 3 people behind the bar I believe one was being trained and it was ridiculous, they were all on their phones and talking to each other not paying much attention to the Patrons. They brought our burgers out without the sides and minutes later I could hear the cook ringing the bell I knew it was as ours as there was noone else waiting for food but the staff didnโ€™t hear it even though I did or they ignored it. We tried to get the bartenders ( all 3 of Them ) attention to no avail. We finally got someoneโ€™s attention and they went and got them. The tots were great. Onion rings were ok. We began to eat and realized we have no utensils, salt,pepper, ketchup, napkins ..then we had to hunt someone down again. Just disappointed because Iโ€™ve been here once before and recommended this place as my past experience was not like this experience at all.

    This place is the best spot I could fine in the area. I went in here with my friends and we just wanted something pretty chill place with goof food and we went to the perfect place. The place has a nice atmosphere and vibe that matches our liking. We are a group of six and we ordered a lot of food. They have a lot of options in their menu and the prices seems fair and reasonable. The service is also pretty quick and the staffs are friendly and helpful. They ordered various food but I was only able to eat the burger and the different flavors of wings because I was focused on talking to my friends than to the food but I remember that the burger was so good. The burger is not that exactly big but it was juicy and full of flavor. The wings are also good and there is various flavor of it. I was not able to taste it all but the wings I ate was tender and I definitely like the seasoning and flavor of it.
