Boba Burger in Morton Grove - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Amazing burger with 5oz patty, bacon, Kim chee , fried egg, Lettuce and tomato. A huge, tasty thinly fried chicken sandwich. Onion rings were perfect too. Went again this week. We repeated our order for these two outstanding sandwiches, but added wonderful French fries instead. This place is a definite STRIKE!

Awesome food. Very polite staff. Will definitely be back. Everything we tried was delicious.

Sesame beef sandwich is a 10/10

Even with Boba Burger's exceptionally high 4.8 rating at the time of this review, my brain could not comprehend a burger at a bowling alley being that good. The burgers here live up to the hype. The beef being ground daily makes a huge difference. The real fruit boba teas are competitively priced, and the boba pearls were pleasantly fresh.

The men that own and run this restaurant are doing the important work of bringing delicious food to a weird place to live. Everything here is good. Everything. I get the avocado banh mi and my wife and daughter always get the marinated chicken banh mi. My wife believes that this is also the best burger in Morton Grove, Niles, Skokie, etc. I don't boba, but my daughter bobas and she likes their boba. But what is important is the french fries. UNBELIEVABLY GOOD. The Boba Burger fries make all fries for 20 miles taste like a hot sock. This is a family place. This is a teens on a date place. This is a old friends getting together place. This is where we eat when we comeback into town. This is where we bring friends who visit. Is it in a bowling alley? Yes, but it's really in a room off of the bowling alley.

Best spot to grab a burger and fries. It was delicious and satisfying.

The fries were nicely salted! The burger was a bit under seasoned, but other than that, it was good! The chicken burger was so good! I didn't try the Boba, but it looked pretty good. Service was pretty fast!

We've been bowling here for many years. The food is always good and reasonably priced. The owners are nice, and service is always great. It's definitely worth eating here!

Very delicious!! Will be back to try other items. Got the Bova Burger, Tokyo Dog, Cheese fries and Chicken egg rolls. All was hot and fresh! Workers are friendly and welcoming.

Food was good. Service was below average and ruined my experience honestly. Cheese fries were pretty tasty but the cup of cheese was tiny, definitely not enough for all the fries. I went and asked to buy another cup of cheese but they said the minimum for card was $4 so I said screw it, add an extra cheese fries and "TWO extra cups of cheese." I made sure to say two extras. Then when the food was ready I asked the guy where the 2nd extra was and he responded in a very rude and slightly aggressive demeanor claiming I never said I wanted 2 extras, just one. We bought a bunch of food too and they couldn't just add an extra cheese for the inconvenience? No way I'm buying more items for an extra cheese now. My friends loved the burgers though and my chicken salad was pretty decent. Would've been a 4 star if that one staff member wasn't so rude. The other dude was chill.

When will you open your own establishment?

Consistently good food and service each time I come here. Favorite burger joint around!

We had a guys night out at the bowling alley and my friends said the food at Boba is good. I had the Boba burger with onion rings and it did not disappoint. One of my friends ordered the jalapeño poppers and they were the best appetizers. Will definitely be back.

Delicious! The gentleman that owns the place is kind and the food is great 👍

Everything is Delicious 🤤... It's hidden inside the Bowling alley but Wow what a Gem 💎. The food was fresh and juicy. The boba was yummy and refreshing. Definitely worth a visit!

Amazing burgers! It’s very out of the way for me but always worth the trip

A satisfying burger spot with flavorful offerings.

Honestly, it was almost a religious experience. I ordered the Hawaiian. I asked to leave off the cheese tomato and lettuce. So much flavor packed into one bite. It actually almost made me go on to sensory overload. It was freakin delicious. I can't wait for my next one. I'm pretty sure I spoke with the owner while I was there. He was really nice and friendly. There's a bunch of other selections on the menu. My biggest problem is gonna be do I get what I've already had or try something different or both. It's important to me that we support small business and this guy could certainly use yours.

Great quality food and casual environment. Delicious Bahn mi sandwich and burger. Separate from the bowling alley.

It's always a favorite !!! DO NOT SLEEP ON THE HAWAIIAN BURGER !!!

My experience was terrible. The owners/workers made me a bang mi sandwich and the bread was hard as a rock. I told them the bread is old. They lied and said they get fresh bread every day. Fighting with them for a few minutes they made me a different sandwich a small burger which was just ok. Then they saw I was having trouble with my young son and yelled at him numerous times for sanding near the entrance. I would not go to this hole in the wall again.

Love Love Love this place! Always so friendly, the food never disappoints and we travel from all over IL just to eat here. Totally recommend.

I found this place on a whim and it’s BUSSINNN!! We ordered the lechon burger, a chicken banh mi, cheese fries, and 2 smoothies. The lechon burger was so balanced and not overly salty at all despite having so many savory elements. Fries were really crispy and fresh and the smoothies balanced the meal. My partner really liked the banh mi too. Needless to say we ate everything up. 10/10 would recommend but don’t blow up my new hidden gem spot 🤣🫶🏻

Wow. Definitely not typical bowling alley food. Great quality and taste. Loved every bite. I’ll be back for more!

First time trying this place and it was ok. I went during lunch time and it was busy but my order came out in a timely manner. The chicken banh mi was good, veggie to chicken ratio was good and it wasn’t soggy. The “boba” tasted really watered down, I wouldn’t recommend it. They’re known for their burgers… they didn’t have a vegetarian one so I didn’t try them. The staff were nice and there was a decent sized seating area. Overall I would recommend checking them out but wouldn’t recommend making a trip (ie driving more than 20 minutes to get there) .

I had a Hawaiian cheeseburger with teriyaki pineapple and fried spam and it was dynamite. Had a super melon Boba with pearls and it was great. Friendly and informative staff. A true hidden gem inside Classic Bowl.

the taste of the boba burger that brought us here was just ok, but the boba drinks were amazing, especially the lychee. very friendly peeps & good prices.

Amazing burger one of the best burgers I’ve had in the Chicagoland area. Also the mozzarella sticks are so damn good. I didn’t bowl or anything purely came for the food.

Mannnnn... that polish sausage was bangin'!!

Food was good but too greasy. Service was okay, not exactly the friendliest. Try it at once if you're near.

Had the boba burger and some boba and it was really good.

The cheeseburgers and the juice drinks were awesome!

We had the Seoul Burger and Banh Mi, and they were both excellent. Don't let the location put you off, it's worth a visit!

You generally don't expect to find a place with truly gourmet food nestled inside a bowling alley, but here we are. Delicious burgers with unique toppings and great prices.

Honestly, Integrity, Great people and Delicious Food. I was there about 5 weeks ago, ordered and paid for my food. Came back after 1hr and I guess I paid again to another person behind the register. Last week I came back from a long vacation and went to order and the owner told me about the mistake and gave me back my money. I was surprised and just let them keep the money, but talk about honesty and integrity. I love honest, hard working people. Plus every thing in their menu is great. Wish nothing but the best for Boba Burger.

Fries=Great, Seoul Burger= Amazing, Jalapeño Poppers= OUT OF THIS WORLD. I would definitely go back ! 😋

Great food in a place that you would not normally expect. Bowling alley 😀

Love their burgers and fries, so nice to have a good burger place nearby. Cool atmosphere and great service.

This place is a gem with great food and great service. They have smoothies with different boba flavors and varieties. My kids also love the chicken tenders - they are wide and thin sliced and very generous portions.

I was craving a high quality burger and fries so decided to try this place out since it was nearby. Everyone working there was friendly. The burger was delicious!! I got the Hawaiian, which the pineapple and spam were good but particularly the patty, BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese and bacon stole the show. 🤤 I also got cheese fries. The cheese tasted high quality, plus the salt on them was good. Lychee drink was refreshing for a summer day. Thank you!

The burgers were shockingly good burgers for being in a bowling alley as was the banh mi sandwich. This was our first time going so I ended up just getting a regular burger but I'm looking forward to going again and trying some of the more creative ones (gotta get a regular one to have a burger baseline). Service was quick and very friendly. Atmosphere could be improved but again it is in a bowling alley so there's only so much you can do ;). Honestly we'll probably end up going to this bowling alley just because it means we can get burgers here again so I'd call that a win. Highly recommended.

Loved every bite and the jackfruit drink was so true to form 😋 👌🏾

Little burger spot tucked away at the bowling alley. I had a Boba burger with fries, both were delicious and freshly made. The staff is always friendly and helpful. I highly recommend. Stay for some bowling while you’re at it.

I cautiously entered the aging bowling alley to decide for myself if Boba Burger is as good as I've heard. After circling the parking lot to find a space during league play it better be. The menu is a big sign on the wall and there are a lot of interesting choices. The prices are good, too. The guy at the counter was friendly and helpful. I ended up ordering the Seoul Burger. It was simply incredible. Kimchi, kalbi glazed bacon, fried egg. A perfect blend of flavors and textures, and no cutting corners on quality. So freaking good! The Thai iced tea is delicious, too. SECOND VISIT: It was so good I had to bring my fiance back with me. I guess that friendly guy at the counter owns the place with his brother. Good folks, I enjoy talking to them. She isn't as adventurous as me and ordered the more basic Boba Burger. Perfectly seasoned, perfectly seasoned, perfect sear. She was happy. This time I tried the BBQ Lechon Burger. It isn't as over-the-top as the Seoul Burger but it was still delicious. Lechon is roasted pork belly. Paired with the ground beef, barbecue sauce, and topped with an onion ring, this is another winner. Their Vietnamese iced coffee is really good. The egg rolls are above average, I had to fight her for that last one. Their fries are nicely crisped and well seasoned. Bottom line: Yes, they have earned their reputation and I plan on working my way through the whole menu.

Love this place. Food, drinks, the people.. all great. I bowl here every Wednesday and it never disappoints.

My family loves this place. The staff is very friendly. The food is spectacular and the smoothies are spot on. The have a Vietnamese iced coffee is SO YUMMY! It's linked to a bowling alley, but this should have it's own stand alone location. I fear the location maybe "hiding" this gem. From the outside, you would not expect to get the kind of food quality and gourmet flavors this place is serving up. If you like burgers, this place should be on your Bucket List.

Amazing little hole in the wall. It's definitely a hidden gem in Morton Grove.

Good service, clean atmosphere and nice location. My food came out quick and tasted lovely.

Always a great atmosphere, great staff and great food! If your looking for a easy meal plus bowling, then this is the place!

They have the best Vietnamese iced coffee. My favorite place to stop for a drink!

A hidden gem that me and my daughter found a while back while taking a walk around the neighborhood. Ever since then this has been our go to spot. The best boba, burgers and mozzi sticks in town.

Absolutely love this place. The best quality food and drinks out there. You will not be disappointed.

The food is gas. It’s delicious every time. My favorites are the Hawaiian burger and the chicken tenders, the drinks are very refreshing as well.

Boba was the best I've ever had

Them Jalapenos Poppers are bussin!

This place hands down always rocks and is always delish no matter what you get. Fav burger in the area thus far.

When I first went, I only had a bubble tea since I was bowling at Classic Bowl. Their avocado bubble was delish. But then decided to go back another time to try their burgers since I saw really good reviews. IT WAS AMAZING. Their Seoul burger and fries were so good and I’m very particular with my burgers. Probably my favorite burger place in the Chicagoland area on the same level if not better than Au Cheval.

Amazing local spot. Everything we ordered was good !

We tried every burger place in the area and this one is our favorite. Don’t judge a book by its cover! Whether you are going with the simple burger or a more complex fully loaded sandwich like the Seoul Burger, you won’t be disappointed. Bahn mi are great as well! And my kids love the boba smoothies of course.

Just overall great food and service. Seoul burger was amazing! Thank you!

Amazing Burgers…hot dog was top notch…must try Burger Joint Cheers!

Service was great and food was absolutely delicious.

I loved love this place, we had to go back twice in a week! The burgers and everything we got were so flavorful and delicious; my favorite was the Hawaiian burger, highly recommend but honestly everything was really good. The staff are friendly and super chill. Definitely coming back soon :)

An unassuming restaurant nested in a local bowling alley, Boba Burger slings quality Pan Asian inspired burgers and dogs. The bahn mi is also an excellent choice, topped with house made pickles. The boba selection is diverse, offering many tropical and fruity flavors for you to combine. I love coming here even when I'm not bowling, to support a small business and to grab some delicious chow.

Food is always solid and staff is always helpful

The food is great, and prices are reasonable. The spot is in a bowling alley, so if you love that vibe, then it's a 10/10.

Great food right off from bowling alley! Grabbed a couple appetizers and boba and it was great for a snack.

Their burgers and sandwiches are by far the best I have ever eaten in Chicago, and I am far from being an American. The food tastes absolutely authentic and perfectly succulent to the very last bite. The food is also super affordable with very high value food, you will get what you pay for for sure. Never in my life did I expect this kind of experience but I was nevertheless blown away but drawn back at the same time!!

Been going here for more than 10 years—love the food and the people! Can’t go wrong with Boba Burger

This is located as part of a bowling alley. Depending on which way you’re coming, I had to turn around because I missed it the first time. Inside the restaurant, it’s small but it does have seating available. I ordered the bbq lechon burger with chili cheese fries. Portion size was huge, it’ll definitely be a filling meal. Burger was cooked medium rare, very succulent and flavorful. The lechon, bbq sauce, and onion ring all contributed to the burger being so tasty. Chili cheese fries were plentiful, hot, and savory. Prices were very fair. Service was good and quick. Didn’t have to wait long.

Absolute best burger in town. Great small business. Go here once a week. Love this place!

We love coming here. My boys say this is the best restaurant ever. The burgers are delicious and fresh. We look forward in coming here again!

Loved this place! Such a hidden gem! Burger and fries were on point. A burger lovers burger place. Warm and welcoming atmosphere. We were greeted coming and leaving. Def going back and bringing others. You wont be disappointed.

Really good burgers. Fries were cook to perfection. Cheeses stick has tons of cheese and egg rolls were fire. Boba drinks and coffee were also really good. The location entrance is located in a bowling alley.

One of the best burger spot in the area. Their homemade burgers are so flavorful and juicy. I love the many option of burgers they have. Our favorites are the lechon burger and Hawaiian burger with spam. The fries are always cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this spot for quick lunch or snack while you bowl. They also serve bubble tea. Service is fantastic. The brothers are always so friendly and helpful with the menu. Service is quick as well. There’s a few table to enjoy the meal but I noticed that a lot of their customers bring the food back to the bowling alley. It’s nice in their area and it gets a little loud only from the bowling alley side. Highly recommended.

Hidden gem! Affordable tasty clean friendly

Great food and great atmosphere

Excellent burgers and sides. The egg rolls and cheese fries are very good! We also love their Boba. Highly recommend.

We ordered the hawaiian and the lechon burger with fries. Delicious burgers for a great price! Food came out quickly and the staff was friendly. Will come back when we’re around the area.

Sweet staff, awesome fresh food! Very clean and relaxing space.

great burgers and boba tea (more like a boba smoothie). Would recommend if you’re in the area. The fries were a little too crispy for my taste.

The good is outstanding. Eat here at least once a week. Boba burgers and the banh mi sandwiches are delicious!!!!

Obsessed with the lechon banh mi sandwiches

Love this place, quick service, friendly staff.

Second time back and still floored by everything ordered. Amazing burgers, awesome poppers, onion rings, and kimchi chili cheese fries!! MAKE SURE YOU TRY THIS PLACE.

Good quality food, great customer service, what else can you ask for?

Great food! Saved me from my hiccups, too!

Great food, great crew running it. I would recommend the lechon burger and cheese fries are always on point.

Located in a bowling alley and I’ve eaten here several times. Food is excellent from their specialty burgers and fancy hotdogs to crispy French fries. Food is freshly made to order with tons of flavors to excite your taste buds. I had the watermelon boba tea and they did a great job cleaning the tables after others left so the next group can enjoy.

Banh mi is orgasmically good bro like oh my god and the employees are super nice. My fav part of bowling here.

What a fantastic hidden little gem in the bowling alley on Waukegan in niles. food is great, very authentic very tasty, hot and fresh. I enjoyed it and I will go back.

My boyfriend grew up in Skokie, so he has visited this place quite often. For me, it was my first time last night. We came to the bowling alley to celebrate my boyfriend's brother's birthday and we all ate at Boba Burger. My boyfriend and I ordered burgers. I had the Seoul burger and he had a regular burger with some extra toppings. We ordered the jalapeno poppers which were definitely my favorite, onion rings, chili cheese fries. Everything was amazing! The people we were with also ordered food and boba tea, and everyone loved it!

I had the pleasure of trying the banh mi sandwich at Boba inside the bowling alley, and it exceeded all expectations. The crispy baguette was perfectly toasted, and the fillings were a delicious combination of tender grilled beef, homemade pickled veggies, fresh cilantro, and just the right amount of flavor. It's a winning strike of flavors in every bite. The banh mi here is a hidden gem within the bowling alley, and I can't wait to go back for more strikes and bites!

Just go. I've had the kimchi dog, the Hawaiian burger, chili cheese fries and the grilled cheese, all top notch. I only wish I could afford to bowl at the attached alley, when did that get so expensive?!?

Definitely was on my must try to eat list and also after watching Mikey's channel. I definitely wanted to try this spot! The first time I came, the location was closed. I came today, and I was super happy they were open today! I decided to try the boba burger, Seoul burger, boba dog, the fries, and the Vietnamese iced coffee. I definitely would come here often for the burgers and the Vietnamese iced coffee (probably one of the best I've had so far!). Even my picky younger brother said the boba burger was pretty good! The burger patties are big, the onions were divine (boba burger), and the kimchi and egg were delicious (Seoul burger). The only sad thing is that I ordered the food to go so the fries got really soggy, and the burger buns had squished down and became soft (probably due to the humidity of all the food). The staff were really nice and patient and definitely kept their pace and cool (as it got really busy). The food does time some time to cook because it is cooked fresh. I'd definitely come again (either dine in or get to go again) and definitely recommend this spot!

Crazy how the best burgers on the north side come out of a bowling alley

The Tokyo Dog is where it’s at!!! Don’t let the location confuse you, this place is delicious!!! Will definitely come back!

Food is always great! Good customer service too!

Favorite place to grab a burger and relax- often go bowling too- great food and boba

Great food excellent service great atmosphere. People are nice
