Minnie KimSeptember 19, 2014Some of the best burgers in Boston! Ordered the Jalapeño burger and enjoyed every bite! You must get half & half (part fries, part onion rings) with your burger :)
Jeremy KrantzAugust 20, 2014Offers some of the best burgers in the Boston area. Cooked to order, thick and juicy and with a ton of options/toppings available as well. There like 20+ different ones.
Constantin WSeptember 23, 2016Very good selection of burgers, good draft Beers and Not crowded during the pats Game on a thursday!
No matter what you order for food, make sure to ask for a side of the Black Jack sauce. It's killer and goes well with everything!
Boston.comJanuary 31, 2012The half-pound patties are so large (they're almost round when they hit the grill) that they require patience as they cook. As an added bonus, large, hand-cut fries arrive with your hamburger. Read more
MayeeApril 15, 2012No matter what, dont cut it in half to share. First of all, it's a delicious burger, you'll want more than half. Second, the thing is loaded and will fall apart. Bocce ball is really good.
Stefanie FriedmanAugust 13, 2015We only had a beer and some fries but the fries were amazing and the burgers looked great. The fries are huge too.
Clare LynchJuly 4, 2015You can't go wrong with any of the burgers. Also consider the buffalo chicken or jambalaya
Emmie RamsdenFebruary 23, 2016Burgers are awesome, and huge! Fries and onion rigs are fabulous. Ask for half and half so you can try some of each!
David CarrApril 28, 2017Best steak fries!! Rings are good too, and of course the burgers are phenomenal!!
So many burgers to choose from. Go baconnator and a few brews while your waiting for it at the bar.
Check out the specials and add peppers and onions to your burger. I like the Stella and Guinness on tap here because they pour them the proper way into the right glasses!
El CampeadorMarch 16, 2013Black and blue burger is the bomb. All plays ate big enough to share. The steak knife helps cut the burger.
Casey KitaApril 14, 2013Love that they offer half and half instead of making you choose between their awesome fries or onion rings!
Zac ChanceSeptember 5, 2014Easily one of the best burgers in town. Decent selection of beer. Often crowded.
Priyam ShahMarch 9, 2016Blackjack burger! Get half and half on the onion rings and fries. Bomb dot com.
- The best burgers in Boston. Also, awesome buffalo wings. Hold court on Mondays for trivia. Arrive early.
Just the best burgers on the planet. Onion rings are pretty good too!
Matthew CoolApril 12, 2012The JD Burger is great, R.F O's also cooks it how you ask unlike many other burger joints
jlDecember 3, 2010The cheese nachos are good! (I love the fact that they use real cheese) Half onion rings & half fries w/burger ;)
They're known for their burgers, and they're big burgers. Be ready.
Kat HJune 24, 2013The blue cheese burger is just a burger with blue cheese dressing (disappointing). Also, their onion rings are far superior to their fries.
If you haven't had the burger here yet, I don't know what to tell you. Amazing!
The Paddy-O is pretty legit. But I'm a guy who likes lots of onions.
IrinaJuly 7, 2016The patty is totally unsalted which is strange :/ Skip onion rings and go for house fries (big chunks of real potatoes!) Blackjack burger 10.95$ is quite spicy. Overall, good price/quality ratio.
Michael BreenJanuary 26, 2010Best burger in Boston. The fries are simply hastily cut up whole potatoes. Ask for half fries, half onion rings.
Tiffany ClarkFebruary 2, 2013The BlackJack burger is great if you like a little kick on your burger.
- Can't go wrong with either a Blackjack or a Black and Blue burger. Wash it down with a $3.25 PBR tall-boy
LauraFebruary 14, 2016Maybe I went on a bad day, but my burger was so greasy that the bun had almost completely disintegrated by the time I got my food. Completely disappointed!
Mike HallDecember 12, 2009Such great burgers in a real neighborhood bar & restaurant. The perfect place for a late afternoon lunch on a Saturday.
Mike ContiMarch 17, 2011Just go here and get what you like. AMAZING burgers and good steak fries too!
Travelhound12March 30I was told this location was permanently closed and the only store still operating is in Lynn.
Best burgers in town- come hungry and expect to use napkins. The "bocce ball" is one of my favorites.
