50 Best Burger Restaurants near Southport

“Above and beyond — great service! My friends and I had just gotten home from a concert and placed a large mobile order for pickup. We had not realized how close it was to closing time! When I arrived to pick up the order, the employees were so kind and professional. They let us know they had ensured everything was fresh and warm for us. We must have been their last customer of the night, and it was quite an order! The food was great, and it was well-packaged for takeaway. Big kudos to this great establishment. Jyoti and the whole staff are incredibly considerate, and it is clear that customer service is important to them. Happy to have in our neighborhood!! Thank you!! 🤗“

“First time here and staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Food was delicious, definitely recommend!“

“We had lunch here today. Bobbie had a Cheeseburger and Tots, I had a Double Cheeseburger and Fries. Everything was hot and very tasty. We highly recommend you visit.“

“My Lamb Burger was good! Nice indoor seating and very clean. The Beginning Burger & Nashville Hot Chicken, onion rings and fries all good! Friendly staff. We even received complimentary Birthday Desserts. Great Place Downtown! Will be back🥳💜“

“while people seem to be review bombing over support in the Isreal v Palestine conflict which seems to be the hottest button in the world right now, my review is about the food, service, staff and atmosphere. The service is top notch, drinks on the tables in less than a minute and food out in less than 10 minutes, mind you we sat at a bar table that the bartenders take care of on top of serving the entire bar rail, they still got drinks out lighting fast and checked on us several times. the burgers were HUGE and delicious, and the fries were perfect. The selection of beers on tap were great and uncommon to find at other bars. the atmosphere was great, loved the music and it was just loud enough to vibe to while still being able to have an audible conversation. The staff was very accommodating and the hostess had a table cleaned off for us immediately, she and the bar staff were great! They have an open kitchen and it looks like the cooks enjoy what they do and have fun with it, which is nice to see and not very common. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.“

“Good burgers, great fries! I love their Ranch which is always a plus for me. Excellent server in a calm chill environment. Come check it out!“

“Whenever I’m missing Chicago, I come to CBAD. Great Chicago food and truly incredible fries. I can’t recommend it highly enough! I’m so happy to have found this spot.“

“Stopped here on our way to see the speedway. Pizza was delicious, beer was great, service was top tier“

“Outstanding customer service and amazing food!“

“My family was driving through yesterday and wanted to check out something local to try out. This place exceeded our expectations. We walked in, immediately greeted, and the server gave a rundown of the menu being our first time. The food came our pretty quick and the food was incredible. The server brought out shake samples for us to decide which we wanted. All tasted great as well. Overall, terrific experience! We will definitely be back next time in town!“

“[order on 4/30 @ 4:22pm]

Love love love the ‘shroom burger and spicy fries with ranch.

The location is in a busy area near a parking garage stop it makes it very accessible.
They also have some on street parking (for people brave enough to parallel park, I am not brave like that lol)

The dining area was very nice with a great atmosphere and very spacious.

I ordered on app, but noticed very easy to use ordering tablets right near the entrance.

The staff near the pick up area were very friendly and greeted me. Behind the counter looked very clean

There were two all-gender bathrooms, I didn’t go in both of them- but the bathroom to the left did have a child changing table.“

“The best burger in Indianapolis!!! The Chef and his team are doing some amazing things. Go check them out, you can thank me later!!“

“Amazing handcrafted drinks“

“We needed a last-minute table for 20 people, and Kaylee and Curtis made it happen. They had everything set up perfectly and were incredibly kind throughout the entire experience.

The food was good and came out quickly despite our large group. But what really stood out was the genuine care from the staff. They understood this wasn't just dinner—it was rare time with family we don't see often enough.

Sometimes great service means going beyond taking orders to help create special moments. This place gets that. They made our family gathering seamless and memorable.

Highly recommend for both the food and the people who truly care about their guests.“

“The place to go to when we want a homestyle breakfast! Always great service and fast!“

“Angie was good bartender“

“Don't judge a book by its cover because this small diner is HUGE with flavor..“

“Best place to get a delicious meal. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Its alllll good!! Don't skip the French toast!!“

“Its refreshing to come to Barringers Tavern. The service from Marcus is what I appreciate most. He is always welcoming, funny and considerate. That is the main reason I visit Barringers with my friends regularly.“

“Edit: It's been four years, and the service is still great! Thanks Gavin for the hot, fresh food, and fast, friendly service!

I am loving the new kiosks that they have in there. It makes it nice and easy to order what you want, get your drink, and just sit down until your food is ready. They also have super helpful and friendly staff that have no problem explaining how to use the kiosks or helping you get things. Definitely one of my favorite places to eat, especially considering that it costs as much as McDonald's but tastes three times better“

“The food was good but my boyfriends tea was cross contaminated with fruit from another customers drink the concern was brushed off as if it was no big deal. So if you have any allergies pay attention to your drinks or food.“

“service - 10/10 Food - 13/10“

“Love this place! Food is always delicious and service is on point. The manager is so nice and accommodating because we usually have large groups. Highly recommend!!“

“Burgers are good but you forgot my fries 😡“

“I don’t know who answers the phone at the Downtown location. But she is so nice and so professional. She helped me with the situation and was as kind as I would ever want to expect from somebody. Thank you so much. Also, we found this place by accident recently and we have fallen in love with Pizza so we really do enjoy going here.“

“Always freah food and friendly service.“

“2nd time here, 1st time was ok, today was better. I did learn that it's under new management starting January '26. The menu has changed a lot since it 1st opened and it's way clearer. Tried the Cajun fries this time, definitely worth it!
To those who tried it in the past and didn't like it, give it another chance and be patient, it's all fresh made to order, not premade fast food.“

“good service Robert corrected our issues couldn't be happier“

“Hands down the best food in Johnson County with the best staff and more than affordable prices. We are regulars every weekend.“

“Best Burger King in Indy! They deserve a recognition for amazing food and customer service! The managers there know us by now and they never disappoint! The food is so fresh and I even change my mind sometimes and they are so polite about it! We go out of our way to go here because we refuse to go to the one by the mall on 31 where they treat you terrible and the food is cold. This is worth going a little out of the way! 👏🏻🏆“

“We were looking for pizza delivery and found this little gem by chance. It arrived hot and fast! We tried the Big Boy and the Taco Pizza - both were delicious! We rarely order food but this will be our new go-to, for sure! The service was also too-notch; very friendly people!!“

“Jesse and Deann Are the absolute best.“

“That was an amazing burger.“

“I’m huge fan of five guys. I try to never write negative reviews. This is not a condemnation of five guys in general. I’ve never had a bad meal in store. I just spent 31.00 on a DoorDash order. Huge mistake. I’ll never make again. The fries were over cooked and soggy. Not even hyperbole when I say my dog didn’t even want them. The burger bowl was cold. Clearly remade and not edible. The order got to me faster than most In store orders I’ve made. Seriously. I’ll eat at five guys but ONLy in store. Worst DoorDash order. Ever. Have to say though the food quality lies completely at your place. Do better.“

“USUALLY great place. Great food and great employees BUT July 4th about 6:00pm. My wife and I ordered: 1 Impossible Whopper, tasted OLD not fresh at all. Mozzarella Sticks, did you change breading ? Looks and tastes terrible. Chicken Sandwich DLX, tasted old, breading hard, and chicken dry. Didn't order any drinks. FYI...... BK's double cheeseburgers USED to be best sandwich anyplace, but now, Two thick little patties on a little bun! Not sure how you did it but it sucks! I'll be back, only because your employees are so nice.“

“We met with Chilly Water staff and management to discuss an upcoming event partnership. I had not been to this spot before. Very clean, comfortable, and friendly. I tried a couple of beers and took some home. Very good! We went ahead and grabbed lunch before leaving and was not disappointed!“

“Best burger around so yummy 😋 F Fry’s awesome“

“Went for the first time today. This is a must try! We will be back, probably too often!“

“Our 3 1/2 yo grandson turned to his mom after eating his burger & fries and whispered, "That was DELICIOUS!" He spoke for all of us. :) Our table was ready and waiting for us. Our wait staff were friendly and attentive. It was a very pleasant evening and we will be returning, soon.“

“Love this place! My autistic son loves the familia crew here! They're watched him grow, cheered him on, and celebrated all milestones. When he goes in to order, they are patient ,kind and warm. They even help him thru the process (he's only 7) of learning ♡ forever grateful!!“

“I work there it’s very nice“

“Small place packs a punch , I was torn between like 5 different burgers I wanted to try I was very intrigued! So I asked the young lady taking our order ( super sweet and friendly btw ) what her favorite burger was and she told me the Indy Burger. I took her word for it and was not disappointed in the least bit! It was so good! The fries remind me of a thinner potato wedge with great seasoning. We shared the loaded tots which were so crispy and not greasy , I honestly thought they were cooked in an air fryer. My only gripe was I’m a Coke drinker and they serve Pepsi lol! Over all great burger great experience! Will definitely be back have a few more burgers I wanna try!“

“Stop by the best grub spot in Indy! Indianapolis“

“My biscuits and gravy were served with spoiled gravy. It took me a couple minutes to realize the cheese aftertaste was spoiled milk. I've have had diarrhea all day....I will never come back. Clearly unsafe food handling and cooks who do not taste what they are serving.... in 45 years I have never had bad biscuits and gravy until today.“

“I've been going here for about six or seven years. I have always enjoyed the food and the bartenders and clientele have always been friendly.“

“We regularly go here and have for about 8 years now. We really like this place . Always good food and service is great ! 😊 Fish and chips are so good . We like the old skool chop steak dinner one of our favorite’s too ! Highly recommend this place !“

“Genuinely so friendly, was greeted when walking in. Servers were so nice and helpful, they brung us our food, took our trash and wished us good day. Even though they’ve converted to the kiosks, they still are very involved with customers and make them feel welcomed. The food was great and came out fast!“

“Best. Beef. Period. 😋 👍“

“Best DQ in Indy!!! My orders are always correct. Fast and friendly service, every time. If there’s a long line, don’t fret. They are fast but efficient. We go out of our way to go to this Dairy Queen. Today, I got an orange shake and a box of popsicles as I have had a sore throat and I knew just the fix! 🤣“

“The food was great 👍 the service was great“
