DeGeo's

Best burgers I've found anywhere around. Lunch here means no need for dinner later.  

I recommend the Geo Burger, the egg ties it together perfectly.

In my quest to review hot dog places, from time to time while I'm on the road I spot places I'd never seen or heard of that have hot dogs. While I was driving down Main Street in Saint Charles I noticed a place with a Vienna Beef hot dog sign in their window and I was quickly turning into the shopping center to try it. DeGeo's is a very small Chicago style restaurant carrying Burgers, Gyro's and hot dogs. The dining area inside is small and clean with a few tables set up inside.

I placed my order and fairly quickly my food was ready. In visiting I decided to go for a hot dog and also sampled the fries here. Service was polite, quick and friendly.

The hot dog I received came on a classic Chicago style poppy seed bun. The bun was soft with no signs of dryness. There were two rather large tomato slices on the hot dog, thick onion and a thick pickle spear. The application of the mustard and relish was fine, I didn't notice any celery salt on this hot dog. The frank on the dog was a skinned natural casing hot dog, it had a nice snap to it and kept the flavor in well.

The fries I received were crinkle cut fries, they were a little greasy and a little salty but had a nice potato paste filling. They weren't exactly crisp on the outside but were overall tasty.

My experience at DeGeo's was positive. The hot dog was well above average, though I wasn't a fan of the thicker than normal pickle or the way the tomato was sliced I'd say this was a good hot dog. The fries were more to my liking than a lot of places (as fresh cut fries seem to be the norm with independent hot dog stands these days) though they aren't the best crinkle cut fries I've come across either. Overall I'd recommend DeGeo's, a good hot dog at a fair price.

management is terribly rude to customers.  Won't go back.
