For a burger in front of a roaring fireplace, I would suggest Come Back Inn in Melrose Park, something like 19th street and Lake??? Peanuts & popcorn, slab of raw onion on the burger, dark inside and lots of nooks and cranies.  I may be slightly off on the locale, but its a great place in the winter for a cozy casual burger.

For really arctic days when I'm to tired to cook, I like Noodle Noodle on Clark/Cornelia...a Japanese noodle shop which has really good Tan Tan Mien, and it's nice and spicey.  Their seafood ramen is good too, if you like mussels.
