50 Best Fast Food Restaurants near Gilberts

“The first time I ended up at this place it was because I found it on a Google search when I was looking for some tacos close to my job.I'll be honest, when I saw that it was inside of a gas station, it felt a little sketchy. I'm so glad I tried it, though! Their tacos are great!! I've been here many times and the quality and flavor is always consistent.“

“Ali always is kind to me and always recognizes me, he throws in free food occasionally and it is greatly appreciated, sometimes i don’t get sporks for my mac but this is the only popeyes that cooks the macaroni good and always is a great experience“

“We brought a large group of 30 students today for lunch after a college fair. Most people get nervous when they see that many teens piling in, but Quinn (one of the managers) and all of the staff were friendly, efficient, and very helpful. We got our food very fast and the quality was not lost with the speed. Thank you for great service!“

“I can’t share about the atmosphere because I ordered over Ubereats but I can say that the chicken was so tender and juicy. I’ve never had this quality of chicken at any other wing restaurant. I really like the sauce but I would only recommend that you give more detail on the spiciness of the sauces on delivery apps. Since I’m Mexican I can say that I would’ve wanted something more spicy and I wasn’t sure what was the spiciest but it was just right when I got it. Maybe like mild, hot, and fire for the options? But I really appreciate the quality and work etiquette. Can’t believe I’ve been living in the area for so long and always saw the place but never ordered.“

“My favorite sub shop in northern IL, even after moving 40 minutes away I still go out there just for a sub and fries. Awesome family owned business. Yankee Doodle and the Capicola Pomidoro are my family’s favoritesVegetarian options: There are 3 off the top of my head, all I have tried and one is my go-to“

“From the outside the building looks very plain but when you come in the restaurant is very clean and they have lots of tables and booths. They serve Pepsi products in the fountain machine and have lemonade and other beverages. My husband ordered the Bacon double cheeseburger, I had a bite and it was amazing! I highly recommend you try one! He ordered the combo which included fries and a drink. I ordered the gyros sandwich and I loved it! The meat was cooked perfectly and they really give you a lot yum and the sauce has more of a sour cream like taste to it and in my opinion it taste better than any other Tzatziki sauces that I have tried so far. We ended our meal with a big piece of Baklava and it was so tasty and delicious and was not dry at all. so amazing! The bathrooms have baby changing tables and there are also high chairs in the dining room. So this is definitely a family friendly restaurant. Every single employee that we came in contact with was very polite and attentive which we If your in the area stop in and give the food a try. You will not be disappointed at all!“

“I have been here twice. 1st time I had the burger and it was very good. This time I had the cheesy beef with a side of giardiniera, au jus for dipping, marinara and a small fry. The beef is definitely home made and probably on of the most tender beefs I've ever had, great flavor, just awesome! The Giardiniera is home made and has the perfect amount of heat, marinara sauce is very good too. The fries are fresh cut and also very good. Don't let the look on the outside fool you. It's not your average fast food place. It's way above that. I will be back to try other menu items.“

“We love Bubs Subs! There are some yummy creations on the menu. Subs are made to order and quite fast. It's a small-ish restaurant, but there never has been a problem getting a seat since most of their business is take-away. It's especially helpful that they honor veterans with a discount!“

“Extremely well managed, very friendly staff, clean bathrooms, food was made to order and still came out very quickly. The food was the freshest I've had from a Culver's in a while, fries and chicken were super crispy but not overcooked at all. Everything tasted amazing, definitely going to make this location a regular food stop when I'm in town.“

“I have been to this location in Elgin. I have been there five or six times in the last week. It gets very busy on Friday nights, Saturday nights. And Sunday afternoons. That's to be expected at Culver's. When I arrived, I was greeted when i walked through the door. I ordered my food, a double sourdough melt with deep fried cheese curds. it was delicious. A few days passed, and I returned to the culver's in Elgin. I ordered a double butter burger. Chili cheese, fries, and a scoop with hot caramel and banana. These were also very good. I received my food promptly. Every part of my order was hot and fresh. I have no complaints to state about Culver's.“

“Good juicy chicken with a crispy breading. Very nice staff. Decor is a little more comfortable than your average fast food shop.Very busy and the tables available were dirty.Parking: Has a good amount of spots. A couple handicap spots and a few upfront spots for takeout are available.Wheelchair accessibility: The business had accessibility for wheelchairs.“

“The Elgin Chamber of Commerce was thrilled to celebrate the grand opening of Tacos Jerez with a festive ribbon-cutting ceremony! We had the opportunity to tour their new location and sample their mouthwatering dishes.From their famous Quesabirria tacos dipped in consomé to their diverse menu of fresh, authentic Mexican cuisine, Tacos Jerez is sure to tantalize your taste buds. We were particularly impressed by their use of handmade tortillas and fresh ingredients.The warm hospitality and commitment to delicious food make Tacos Jerez a welcome addition to Elgin's vibrant dining scene. We highly recommend stopping by and experiencing a taste of Mexico in our own backyard!“

“Solid food! Got the sweet and savory chicken sandwich and veggie spud. The bread was perfectly soft. Veggie spud had slightly too many vegetables but nonetheless was fresh and delicious. My brother and dad got the southwest chicken sandwich and highly recommend it.Environment was lovely and service was fast and friendly.“

“The order was brought quickly. My husband loves to order fish here. The staff is very friendly. Everyone is good-natured. I like this kind of service. The only negative is the constant smell of fried meat and fish in the room, probably the air hoods need to be “

“Moved back to the area after 5 years and had to try weedees at their new location. I got the greek chicken dinner and It was delicious. Potatoes were soft and the chicken was tender. Sauce was very flavorful, came with toast and choice of soup (cream of chicken) or a drink. I knew it was gonna be amazing when I saw the same Chef/Cook still there working the grill. Very nostalgic and I recommend to everyone. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Recently went to the Daddy Daughter Date night they set up. IT WAS ABOVE AND BEYOND AMAZING! I thought it was going to be a nice little reserved set up so we could eat and have some fun but they did what chick-fil-a does and made it INCREDIBLE. They had actual Unicorns, fairies and mascots there and activities for the kids. (they ran it very efficiently as well) As always, the service and the food was great too. Very happy with the night and I will absolutely sign up again.“

“Awesome experience here!Food was great, staff super friendly and helpful, quick service, no wait.Highly recommend to anyone looking for a good pizza joint to get creative with.Also General Manager at this location is superb! Always very friendly and super helpful with any questions and/or concerns.“

“I ordered from doordash. The coslaw was the best I ever had since gma was alive. Like devine! I kind of wish I didn't order extra meat!!! It was too much, my eyes were bigger than my stomach. But it's so good. So it was worth it. I ordered baklava...it looks good. But I'm too full. So saving it for midnight snack.“

“Picked some tacos up for dinner. Called ahead and the lady was very pleasant. Al pastor and Carne asada tacos were terrific. Meat was tender, flavorful, and well seasoned. Salsas were awesome too! The red one is hot!!! Like 7/10 hot, but so good. I've been to many taquerias in Chicago, and this place is right there with the best. Will be ordering again soon!!“

“Love, love, love this place! They have the BEST fries I have ever had. Pretty much anytime I'm out in Huntley, I have to stop by to get some of those delicious, hot, salty, perfect fries. (I don't eat meat, so I can't speak on that.) They cut the potatoes in the restaurant daily-- that's gotta be why they are so good! I also love that their menu is simple, not overwhelming with too many options. Everything is made fresh to order. I can't say enough good things about Beef Shack. I'm addicted!!Kid-friendliness: My kids love their food and there are paper towels on the tables....enough said! :)“

“Walking into Luke's beef for the first time, I did not know what to expect. When that first taste of burger touched my tongue, I saw everything. All the answers of life were clear to me. People say you can't buy happiness, I disagree. For less than 15 bucks you can buy a burger from Luke's beef which is the equivalent to heaven on earth.“

“Dairy Queen's ice cream is awesome. Got a cookie dough blizzard with extra cookie dough and a churro dipped ice cream cone and they were great. Great service there too. Also make sure you bring money smaller than a twenty dollar bill. There's a sign on the window that says to use small bills only.“

“My family is so happy we have this delicious place to go to. Their dishes range from hot dogs to hearty dinners, which are perfect for those looking for a one stop shop. I’ve lived here more than 20 Years. Ownership changes has been a big problem. I hope new (and family related) ownership changes have made the community relieved that this will be a continued staple.Management - please respond.“

“I was stuck at work and my daughter forgot to bring snacks to dance class. 30 minutes prior to closing I ordered delivery to her at the local community center! Thanks to the girl I spoke with who made it happen and quickly! Great food great service!“

“We've been coming here almost every week on Tuesdays, before we go to the movies, for a couple months now. The food is ALWAYS delicious and fresh. Everybody that works here is super friendly, but I'd especially like to compliment Dom and Rashaad! They always make it a point to talk to us, ask about what movie we're seeing, or just how our day has been. I really appreciate that. We'll definitely keep coming back!“

“wonderful portillo's. this was my first experience at a portillo's franchise and I had a wonderful time. the food was a little more expensive than anticipated but well worth it. there are not a lot of quality beef sandwiches at fast food places but portillo's delivers with both the italian beef sandwich and the beef and cheddar croissant. the strawberry shake was also delightful. I am not the biggest fan of the fries but I subscribe to the belief that nobody does crinkle cut like Dave's Hot Chicken. the ambiance of the restaurant was also lovely.“

“I am absolutely AMAZED with the service I received! The staff was so friendly! They all came up to greet me and talked to me like I was a part of the family. The manager was so accommodating to my dietary requests. Usually, at other places, I am met with an eye roll and a sigh. NOT HERE! She listened to my concerns and responded with such tenderness! Every one of them deserves a raise! I will be driving way out of my way to only come to this location from now on! WOW!Dietary restrictions: Very accommodatingParking: Plenty of on-site parkingKid-friendliness: Very friendly. They treat you like family“

“Ok, let's face it, all hamburgers are not built the same. When you crave a GOOD burger, Five Guys should always be on the list. All the food is good and the French fries are some of the best.As far as this location, the staff was welcoming, immediately engaged customers, and were efficient in making all orders.Centrally located near most shopping in Crystal Lake.Yum, Yum, go get you some!“

“I love coming to jersey mikes, so much so that some of the employees don’t need to ask my name for the order anymore. The Italian and Philly cheese steak are my go to’s ! It’s real food at reasonable prices. I’m here at least once a month and I have brought countless people in to try it out. I highly recommend this place.Dietary restrictions: They will reset the cooking stations for gluten free orders.“

“My wife, my daughter-in-law as well as my 4 month old granddaughter ( she did not eat what we did... lol )just ate lunch there.... We had 4 Chicago dogs and 2 large French tries with the order of onion rings a couple of drinks. Everything was perfect.“

“Hadn't been to an Arby's in a little bit. I tried the chicken ranch with bacon & it didn't disappoint. My order was hot, fresh, and accurate. The 2 young ladies working were personable yet professional & the place was really clean. When I come through town again, I'll stop here without hesitation.“

“They have the most amazing friendly staff it doesn't matter what time a day you go the staff is fabulous and the food always freshDietary restrictions: Wide variety of options depending on needKid-friendliness: Family friendly business with great values“

“I choose to buy my sandwiches at Jersey Mike's over all other sandwich shops. It's better quality ingredients. The staff at this location is nice. The restaurant is clean. I only wish there was better communication on when there will be double and triple points days. Knowing these specific days would get me back for another sandwich sooner.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-Free bread options.“

“Haven't had Jersey Mike's in a while and they did not disappoint. I got the Philly cheese with lettuce, tomatoes, Mayo, pickles and banana peppers on cheese bread. It was the best and I will be back soon. Very fresh food with a clean environment and great staff.Dietary restrictions: They now offer gluten free bread for their subs which is a plus. Most places don't have gluten free bread and this is a plus you just don't know until you ask.“

“It's a regular Taco Bell. Service was fine. They have kiosk which is nice. It was clean. Food is what you would expect. 5 stars though because they have 2 gender neutral bathrooms. This made me feel very safe here and I had a good experience. Thank you taco bell for doing the minor things like this that make the space available to everyone“

“Very friendly welcoming atmosphere, the hot dogs were great. So we're the fries with cheese. Better then portillos by a long shot. The salad wasn't my cup of tea, but I did love that it came with cucumbers and tomatoes. Definitely freshly prepared.“

“Always friendly service and food made as we like to order. This BK has always been great! The last time we were there, I noticed how carefully they put together the sandwiches, and see that other reviewers make mention as well. This is not something you experience everywhere. Keep up the great work!For negative reviewers, small inconveniences are part of life. You can't say that every meal you've made came out perfect, or that you tell yourself to hurry up if you're cooking too slow. If your order is wrong, kindly let them get it right for you!“

“I ordered the snickerdoodle blizzard. The guy at the window did hold it upside down to prove how thick it was. It was great till I got about halfway through it and then I found only vanilla ice cream. The first half was great but I was disappointed in the second “

“When in Crystal Lake, FORGET Portillo's! This place has the BEST JUMBO CHILIE-CHEESE HOT DOGS!. Truly amazing! Homemade Spicy Chile fresh everyday, the fattest, juiciest, tastiest Jumbo Hot Dog in a bun ever and then topped off with melted cheese, onion and mustard. To die for! (next to downtown CL Metra Train Station in a tiny trailer no less.) Very large proportion too. It started out as a popcorn place years ago. New owner since.Vegetarian options: Onions availableKid-friendliness: Kids love their stuff big time. Other hot food available besides hotdogs. Popcorn, drinks, fries. Picnic tables and benches available.Parking: Lots of parking next to train station.Wheelchair accessibility: ramp, outside tables-see pictureDietary restrictions: Ask for water instead and watch everyone else enjoy the good stuff.“

“This is my favorite Subway! It’s always clean, employees are always friendly, fast and professional. The bread is always fresh, the meat and condiments are always stocked and fresh as well. They know me on a first name basis and start making my sandwich when I start walking in. I highly recommend!“

“The hose-draggers have a great location here! Friendly service, clean. I like ordering by picture and they have photos of them on the wall. You can also create your own. Today I tried the limited time Chicken parm meatball sub..I should've gone with the large.“

“The food is very good. I love the food so much . But only thing I recommend is you have grubhub because I have disability so I can't drive to your location Someone has to get it for me and they can't always get it for me. I think people will use it too.I really going to appreciate it Patrick O'Came“

“Cheesy beef garlicy bread was really good. Excellent flavor. Good texture in the meat, cheese did not overpower the meat flavor and I can taste the garlic bread. The only minor complaint that I'd say is the juice that I ordered in the two cups, one of them was smashed, crushed and dribbled all over the inside of the plastic bag. The only other thing is the sandwich seemed a little bit on the small side, much smaller than a portillo's.“

“We love skippy’s! The food is always fresh and delicious but the real star of the show for me is their dips! The ranch is amazing and the honey mustard is THE BEST. They have their own recipe and make it fresh in the stores. Can’t go wrong!“

“I screwed my own order and didn’t bother to fix it. When the gentleman brought the food to my table I asked him why I was short some items. He simply showed me my ticket and explained it was not on the order. The young man was polite and walked away. 4 minutes later he came back with a side of fries for my kids. This is great customer service! I didn’t ask him for anything! I even offered to pay for and he simply said it was on the house. My 2 kids were happy to eat the fries!“

“Always fast and fresh. But the last two times we went, our beefs are never dipped when we ask for it. Thats a bummer. But they are always good at getting the orders together correctly, like we get all things but the minute errors happen. Food still tastes good though.“

“The food was delicious. The space clean, good space, and decorations. Nice to go with family and friends. The service was really cool. It was our first experience at a Cilantro taco grill Elgin. The restrooms clean and good olor. The customer service is priority. Chiken tacos amaizing size and flavor.“

“I personally think DQ is my favorite ice cream place in the entire world. I've traveled a lot in my life and DQ is still the best. And this specific place is very nice. I am very happy that they finally brought back the s'mores blizzard and I definitely recommend it.“

“I always joke and say when I’m executed Popeyes will be my last meal. Well, if it comes true I want this location to prepare it. I’ve tried Popeyes all over the country and this one so far has been the best. Yea, it’s in a truck stop, but I’ve eaten Popeyes in the hood too. The manager here deserves a raise. Thanks guys!“
