16 Best Burger Restaurants in New Haven

“Let me start by saying. The burger was amazing. It's hard to fully describe but great combination of flavors. Fries were delicious and the shake was on another level. I asked for a suggestion and got the one he suggested. I wasn't totally sure what the biskof one was but it was great.“

“The best hamburger I've ever had in my life. 10/10. Try the potato salad too!“

“Prime BRG was an absolute highlight of our day in New Haven!

We ordered the OG Burger, and it was incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The New Haven Hot Chicken Sandwich had just the right little kick, with perfectly crispy breading and so much flavor!

And the sides! The fries were some of the most perfectly cooked fries we've had. Crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The onion rings had that perfect balance of breading to onion, which is harder to find than you'd think!

The buffalo cauliflower was another standout. I've typically only had it unbreaded, but their breaded version took it to an entirely different level. Absolutely delicious!

What really rounded out the experience was the hospitality. From our server Amanda to Christina behind the bar, both were wonderful and made us feel so welcome.

Fantastic food, great people, and an experience that made our visit to New Haven even more memorable. Definitely a place we'd return to!“

“Love it !! Unique experience“

“Today was our first time in a Shake Shack Restaurant. Ordering was a quick process and our food was ready within a good 10 minutes or so? I ordered the Smoke Shack Double with French Fries and a 50/50 Lemonade/Iced Tea. My fiancé ordered a 6 piece of Chicken Bites….Hot, Juicy and Delicious. The Smoke Shake Double is my added to my personal list of “Favorite Burgers” 1. Five Guys Orange 2. Shake Shack New Haven 3. Prime 16 Orange 4. Prime Burger Ridgefield“

“It's Sunday and every once in a while... more often than not, we brunch! Lol. We heard about the bottomless mimosa brunch here at Cast Iron Chef Chop House & Oyster Bar so we pulled up to check it out! Here's how it went... Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right on the busy State Street is this gem. There's no private parking, but plenty of comfortable, spacious street parking right out front. Once inside you're immersed in a very fine-dining, elegant, laid-back atmosphere. Lots of woods, intimate-low lighting and upbeat music. I loved the vibes in here. The first room is your bar room where the rail is off to the left, but with plenty of seating to the right. If you continue through the room you enter the main dining room where it's all booths and other tables. Service: Stacey was our server. Things got off to a bit of a rocky start, but they smoothed out throughout the brunch. Food/Drinks: The mimosa was okay... It was REALLY strong because there's orange vodka and orange liqueur in it. It kinda killed the flavor for me because I'd prefer a traditional mimosa with minimal juice, but... no matter. They're bottomless... or supposed to be... Just be mindful of who your server is. Brunch can consist of a prix-fixed menu, which is what we did so we'll be going through that. First up were the Homemade Sausage Gravy and biscuits. These were super smothered and fantastic. Hot, savory, meaty, salty and even had a bit of a subtle sweetness. The biscuit was soft, butter and had crispy edges. Next up were the Cinnamon Rolls. These were HUGE. Lol. Like, how are we supposed to eat AND drink all of this stuff?! The exterior of the roll was crispy and the inside very soft. Not over-the-top sweetness or anything. These were very balanced. Next up were the Bananas Foster Pancakes. But this thing was enormous. It was so thick, like literally an inch thick. Lol. Fresh bananas sliced right on top, it cut like butter, was soft with the perfect crispy edges and these were AMAZING. Punch of sweetness up front, fluffy texture and just a great pancake. For dinner, this restaurant usually serves Cast Iron Popcorn instead of bread, so Stacey let us try it! It was smokey, a little-little sweet with a little bit of salt and maybe a hickory barbecue flavor. I liked it. Lastly, I chose the Steak & Eggs over Salmon & Eggs, but got to try both since my wife was with me. Each comes with gigantic fried potatoes, 3 eggs, a piece of toast, caramelized onions and your protein of choice. My steak was cooked perfectly (medium-rare). The flavors were excellent. It was a little fatty and just was done very well. Value: $64.96 for bottomless mimosas and the prix-fixe menu. Probably the best value brunch in the state. SO MUCH FOOD and strong drinks. I don't know what else you'd want! In conclusion, I really enjoyed myself here and have revisited since my first time! Everything was just as awesome as the first. Check this place out if you're in the area!“

“Came to do trivia visiting from San Diego, CA. I gotta say what a good time! They have great food, greater drinks and impeccable service. Our server was Michelle and she was fantastic! We ordered the fish and chips and the turkey sub with fries. Both were delightful! We came in last place for trivia and got a consolation prize! ? Great times, good food, good people. Highly recommend for a casual night out for food and drinks!“

“Best Location around, The Guys behind the counter, whose names escape me, are always considerate, friendly, accepting and hard working without complaint. The overall look of the restaurant could use small revamp but the Service and Friendly nature is perfect for someone like me who deals with anxiety/depression and certain social situations. Staff make me feel comfortable and accepted. Thank you thank you thank you.“

“I loved the Nashville chicken sandwich, fries and passion fruit lemonade. Absolutely delicious!!!“

“When I go visit my son, I take him to Burger King once a week like I would when was a delightful youngster. Now he's become a happy handsome young man. This Burger King has a quite atmosphere which we both enjoy at least at the times of our visits in the late afternoons any given days of the week and the menu is just as advertised on television, mouth watering and delicious!
I love eating there with my son.“
