First time here, well, I came once, a long time ago as a kid, so it felt like the first time. Service was awesome, very friendly and helpful, even though it was pretty busy. The ice-cream and food were delicious and came out fast, but we never felt rushed. Would highly recommend and we’ll be back.

Everything was amazing! It was a perfect night to watch movies and eat! I saw this place on tiktok and it looked like my kind of restaurant, so I decided to stop by. Menus are on the side of the table btw. The double cheeseburger combo was phenomenal with good portion of fries and perfectly cooked burger. My server was so sweet and caring with my order and so was the other sweet lady.
I’ve had a stressful week, so this place makes up all the troubles I’ve gone through. However this place is way far from where I live. Otherwise, I would be happy to stop here again!
The sundae was super good and had a great representation! I’ve felt so touched by the food, vibe, and everything! I’ve left tips for 2 servers to show my appreciation! Thank you

Lindy’s Chili & Gertie’s Ice Cream is hands-down one of the best small businesses around! Their milkshakes? Absolutely the best I’ve ever had. The portions are wild — you get your cup AND then they give you a second cup with what’s left over, so it’s basically two milkshakes for the price of one!
The flavors are always on point. I’ve been here more than three times already and will definitely keep coming back.
The only small downside is they’re cash only — wish they took cards. In this day and age, most people don’t carry cash, and honestly, they’re popular enough to switch things up — but ,that’s out of our control.
Still, with flavor this good and portions this generous, it’s worth every visit. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I’ve been a loyal customer for more than 20 years, and they continue to impress me every time. The ice cream and food is always fresh and perfectly prepared, and the customer service is outstanding. The love and care they showed my son on his birthday truly touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes.

This Latino-owned hamburger and ice cream spot is an absolute GEM! Hands down the best burger I’ve ever had in Chicago — every single bite was perfection. Juicy, flavorful, and made with love. You can taste the quality!
The atmosphere is amazing, but what truly sets this place apart is the PEOPLE. The staff is honestly the best I’ve ever encountered. From the moment you walk in, they make you feel like family — even if it’s your first time there.
It’s literally the next day and I already want to go back. That’s how you know it’s good!
This place will leave you wanting more, and I can confidently say I’m officially a returning customer. Overly enjoyed every bite and every second there!

This was my first time going for a burger, and it was one of the best double bacon cheeseburgers I’ve had! Most definitely will be returning.

It is a beautiful 62 degrees on a sunny Sunday afternoon 3:30ish – my 69yr old mother who is on her oxygen/walks w/cane walks in, excited, and then brutally rebuffed when told she could not take a seat to wait for the 20min wait – those seats were reserved for someone else. Where was the compassion for an elderly lady on a cane with oxygen told “NO YOU CANT SIT THERE” and to top it off she asked to use the restroom. Totally rebuffed again. Shame on you. I’m so happy I did not spend any of my money in your establishment. Never will I ever recommend.

I honestly love this place . Everyone here is always so nice and generous. The food is the best I’ve ever had, I recommend this place 1000%. I would say the only thing I don’t like is the tables the space is kinda tight for me. Other than that I love it here, been coming here since I was two years old.

BEST milkshake I’ve ever had!! Burger, wings, cheese fries and onion rings were all 10/10. Love that it’s family owned. It was busy for a weekday, but the wait was short. Can’t wait to go back!
