There's a girl at work that talked this place up like their burgers were unbelievably delicious.  I recently had one and I thought it was just average.  Maybe if I lived in the middle of nowhere I'd be excited about them, but I have countless other burger options in Chicago that are way better than 5 guys.  The fries were OK, I've had worse, but then I'm not a big fry-eater.

What are your favorite burger joints in Chicago?  I might be going there in a few months, so I'd love some suggestions.

Ok!  I'm really only familiar with the north side, so here's what I got:

The best widely available burgers I would say are from Leona's which is a chain in the Chicago area, so you shouldn't have trouble finding one.  Order with caution though, their service is really slow (it's faster if you order for pick-up) and they're about 50/50 on getting your order 100% correct.

There's a place on Pulaski, I think it's called Paddy Mac's, that also has good burgers, but its a bar and kind of scary.

If your in the downtown area, there's a place called Monk's Pub that's pretty popular and famous for their burgers.  I think they're better than 5 guys.

Other than that, most corner hot dog places or even local pizza places have burgers that are equivalent to 5 guys.

If you're looking for FRIES though, there's a small place on Montrose called Susie's... I don't really like their fries, but I will say they're unique and most people either love them or hate them.. they do smell really good and even though I don't like them, I usually eat a couple just because of the smell.  They also have about 100 milk shake flavors, or you can suggest your own combination, which I think is a lot of fun!  However, they're also very slow.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
