Reviews for Lindy's Chili & Gertie's Ice Cream in Chicago, IL

Great place for American food: cheeseburgers, chilli fried/cheese fries, hot dogs, chilli bowls. The milkshakes are the best... part! Absolutely recommend them if you are near Richard Daley college/Midway area. The guys in there are very friendly andthere?s stuff animals everywhere, how cute. Read more

Jaime took our order. She was absolutely amazing! This place has so many options you can't go wrong. The banana split was the... largest I've ever had. Wishing we had this place in Arizona. Antonio created this amazingly delicious dessert that was at leasta foot high. Everything about this place harkens the 1960's, generous portions and a smiling face is what you'll get when youcome. The kids sundae was generous as well. Couldn't have asked for a authentic Chicago dessert experience! Great job Jaime andAntonio! Read more
