⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “A great new spot in Skokie!”
I stopped by Sizzle on Oakton Street for the first time and was so impressed. The vibe inside is bright and welcoming, and the staff were genuinely friendly and helpful with menu suggestions.
I tried the Sizzle Classic burger and it was absolutely delicious — juicy, perfectly seasoned, and the grilled onions and signature sauce really made it stand out. My friend had the Ghost Burger and couldn’t stop raving about it. The seasoned fries were crispy and flavorful, and we loved that there were fun extras like boba drinks and soft-serve ice cream for dessert.
Everything tasted fresh and came out hot, and the prices are really reasonable for the quality. It’s nice to see a spot in Skokie offering not just great burgers but also wings, chicken sandwiches, and drinks beyond the usual soda.

I’d hate to see sizzle just fall off like these other places that have similar menus. The biggest complaints I have about these halal joints is consistency. They do a good job when they open but then once they realize people are coming they stop caring about quality control. This...
Read moreIt was okay overall. The fries were really good, although most of them were soggy, but the crispy ones turned out nicely. The meat, on the other hand, didn’t have much seasoning, and some parts were slightly undercooked. The single patty was quite thin compared to the bun, so I had to double them up. As for the classic beef burger, honestly, it wasn’t quite up to the mark. The meat lacked flavor, and there were quite a few chewy, rubbery bits that I really didn’t enjoy. They definitely need to work on seasoning the meat better. Also, when making the burger, it would help if they organized things a bit better instead of leaving it all messy. I found myself having to put the beef patty inside the bun because everything was just all...
