50 Best Burger Restaurants near Erlanger

“Extremely friendly and fast service. I ordered two double cheeseburger combo and two chicken sliders.

The chicken sliders were cooked fresh and were absolutely fantastic.

The double burgers were built from singles on a precooked bunch sitting on the grill and were obviously a little old. One of the burgers had a stale top...

This was my first ever experience with a White Castle, to be fair they weren't busy at all at the time... I assumed it would be similar to Krystal burgers that I've eaten before... honestly overall about the same caliber of restaurant.“

“I have never had a bad experience at this Wendy's. This should be the training center for Wendy's in the Kenton county area in my opinion. The Mon-Friday AM breakfast crew is just phenomenal. I have been going here for years and this place has it down with the food, service and correcting anything and using the Wendy's app. This is the place to go for Breakfast and Lunch in the fast food industry. High five to them! Thank you so much for making my mornings so bright.

“Phenomenal food and service“

“I had great service today and I love the new banana split milkshake ! Good job Rally’s !!!“

“Been to this location many of times for breakfast, lunch and dinner and never have had a problem and surprisingly never with the ice cream machine. Staff are always nice and managers always makes things right if something is wrong without question. It's how your approach is to others how things are handled in customer service.“

“Pleasant surprise stopping here being too tired to drive to Florence. Beautiful new addition, great menu, amazing 80’s music, wonderful service from Kaileigh! She recommended the sirloin and bread pudding! “Better than Louisiana” and she was right! GO GET IT!“

“If I could give them even more stars, I would!! The owner, Mike himself, took care of us while we were there and he was amazing! So kind and kept us smiling during our entire meal! He was so sweet with my 18 month old daughter, even giving her some suckers and a gift certificate for next time. Not only was the service top notch, but the food was to die for! We got specialty burgers and my daughter got chicken tenders, all of which were made fresh and perfectly cooked/seasoned! I can’t recommend this place enough. Already can’t wait to visit again!!“

“LOVE the burger fries and tots.“

“I knew it would be a cool place when the door knobs were gas pumps. Everything was detailed down to the napkin rings. It lived up to its name for sure. The food was amazing! Our waitress Cozy, I can't say enough about her. She had the best personality, super sweet and when we had decided what we wanted she definitely told us about our choices, like how they are prepared, what they come with and if she had tried them herself. I will definitely be back.“

“What one of our team members says: "Milkman in OTR is the go-to spot for the best smash burgers in Cincinnati, and it's so much more than a burger joint! They serve alcoholic/non-alcoholic milkshakes and slushies, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, and more! Plus, the cozy retro vibe of the restaurant makes it such a fun spot for date night or hanging with friends. We highly recommend trying their blue raspberry soft serve!"“

“If you like a restaurant that has a kind owner, a friendly staff, and Yummy food, then Bard's is the spot for you! My favorite thing is their seasonal Lemonade drinks! Fresh made with real fruit. The blackberry is my go to!“

“I went to Herb and Thelma’s for the first time. It did not disappoint. Very tasty, juicy burgers. Delicious sauerkraut. Manhattan to rival any other Manhattan from an upscale bar. Everyone is friendly. Such a fun atmosphere. Be prepared to be surprised by the food and friendly atmosphere. Cash only.“

“Amazing food and timely service. The atmosphere is priceless.“

“Service and food were great. Try the chili, it's fantastic Lots of burger combinations. The hamburger patty between 2 grill cheese sandwiches was excellent, next time I'm going to try it with Swiss cheese. Our first time there, but definitely not our last“

“Drake’s in Florence was a great find and an excellent place to grab a meal with my peers. We were in Kentucky for a business conference and stopped here before heading to the airport.

The first thing that stood out was the variety on the menu. They have everything from sushi to steak, burgers, and much more. Usually when a restaurant tries to offer that many different types of food, something suffers in quality. That definitely wasn’t the case here.

We had a group of about 16 people, and everyone ordered something different. Despite the size of our party and the variety of orders, the food came out surprisingly quickly. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious across the board. I didn’t hear a single complaint from anyone in our group.

The service was just as impressive. Our server was attentive, stayed on top of everything we needed, and handled a large group extremely well without making the experience feel rushed or chaotic.

The restaurant itself had a cool atmosphere and was a great place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a meal together before heading to the airport.

Great food, plenty of variety, solid atmosphere, and excellent service. Based on our experience with a group of 16, Drake’s handled everything exceptionally well. I would absolutely come back the next time I’m in the Florence area.“

“My husband and I had dinner here before attending the Nate Bargatze comedy show on Sunday, October 26th. We were running late due to the Bengals game letting out, and the traffic and crowds in the streets were beyond chaotic. We called Bourbon's and informed them of the situation and they were so kind to hold our table for us. We finally arrived and we were greeted and seated immediately. The service, the food, and the ambiance were all excellent. We would highly recommend this place. It's a great location if you're attending an event at Paycor Stadium, the Reds Stadium, or the Heritage Bank Center. It was an easy choice being so close to the venue we were attending and we're glad we chose it!“

“My husband and I both agreed it was the best sandwich we’ve ever had! Super fresh and the bread was amazing! We will definitely be back“

“We were seated at the bar and had great sandwiches and drinks last night (11/5/24) . Mark was the bartender who waited on us. His outstanding customer service made us feel like we had a “fine dining” experience!“

“Friendly server.Prompt service.“

“Great food and service staff was awesome!! 🍔“

“I’m Italian and I live in Switzerland. During my trip to Cincinnati, I discovered this restaurant, and honestly, what a wonderful surprise! 🇮🇹🇨🇭🇺🇸
I had a burger that was absolutely delicious 🍔, probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever tasted. It was such a memorable experience!
A special thank you to our server, who was incredibly friendly, smiling, and attentive. The service was excellent from start to finish.
I truly recommend this restaurant, and I would be very happy to come back“

“Our Mom's choice for her 88th Birthday was Ron's Roost. 🥳 Char was hands down the best waitress I've had this year anywhere - personable, professional, & polite! 😊 I only wish I had room for pie.“

“Great atmosphere for the family plus the food is great too. You have to try their cheese curds. Plus the Burlington Burger is to die for. Probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had.“

“Great beer, great food, great staff, great location. There isn’t another place like this around, it is a bit pricey, but it’s worth it. I am a regular here and have been for years.

The Good - Great food, great beer, great bar, the staff are sweet hearts.

The Bad - None

This place is exceptional, its all you could ask for in a Pub, what more is there to say.“

“I am never disappointed with the food or beverages or service.“

“We love Spear Ridge. Great food, fair prices, excellent service. Everything we have tried there has been delicious. Their onion rings and French fries are the best in the area. Smash burgers, chicken salad, chicken are all amazing. Great atmosphere. We highly recommend.“

“We love this place! Good, home-cooked food for a great price. Food is always served fresh and hot in generous portions. This is such a hidden gem in Cincinnati!“

“Gordo's is the kind of timeless place that makes visitors feel comfortable without making a big deal about it. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and very good at their jobs; they seem to genuinely enjoy working there, and it shows.

The food is absolutely delicious and served in daunting portions. The burgers are the jaw-unhinging size (and shape) of baseballs, cooked beautifully and doctored up in amazing ways. Six out of seven of us chose different styles, and none of us were disappointed; I had Boursin and poblano, and I still regret that I couldn't finish that last bite. The lone holdout, my mother, ordered a chef's salad and raved about it, saying that it was the first she'd ever had that she honestly couldn't finish. My dad and I will testify that she did her best.

The only dessert listed at Gordo's is the Dessert of the Day. I asked our waitress whether it actually existed, or if they (rightly) assumed that no one would ever have room to order it. She said that they did (it was tiramisu that day), but most people who could still think about food ordered it to go. My teenager made a reflexive plea, but they were too full to put in real effort.

If we didn't live two states away, Gordo's would already be our family's regular place, and my fridge would already be stocked with the Dessert of the Day. As it is, we'll definitely be back whenever we visit Cincinnati.“

“1st time eating there. grilled chicken sandwich was delicious. my granddaughter loved the tablet they have on all the tables to play games while we waited. however we didn't wait long. service was incredibly quick“

“First visit. Got the special… best French Dip sandwich I’ve had. Baguette was perfection for this dish. Will be back.“

“Amazing service and home cooked meals. One of our favorite morning stops.“

“I have discovered that the Dairy Queen in Latonia/Covington has lower prices than the Dairy Queen Highland Pike in Ft. Wright near Walmart. I believe it is because the one in Latonia is privately owned. I paid about 2 dollars more at Dairy Queen on Highland Pike for a milkshake than I do at my local location on Decoursey Ave across the street from Latonia Liquors and this location has a bench or picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream without taking it in your vehicle. Yes, they do have a drive thru also... if you're in a rush or have somewhere else to be. The associates are generally quick to get you in and out of the drive thru. Just be extra cautious when exiting the lot because it's a busy road and there are pedestrians crossing often and waiting in line at the walk up window.
The associates are friendly as well!“

“Best place ever to go eat“

“Food was fabulous! Great beer! Will definitely be back. Kudos to Chef JB 👏👏“

“I had the “ In the Beginning “ with a side of fruit. It was well cook and presented.“

“Service was good and good food“

“We had a rough start to our experience, had about an hour wait for a refill and our food was over cooked. BUT when I addressed management they were extremely concerned with making things right they, straightened everything out immediately! After the fix I can say next time I pass through I will be sure to stop again.“

“friendly people. Great food and ice cream.“

“amazing food! every one of the bartenders are awesome! can't say enough about em, and even the owner is so kind! I go for karaoke nights but after talking with him they have so many other cool things going on definitely recommend“

“delicious food and great service thanks a lot guys“

“Great atmosphere and energy. Our server, Carlos, was helpful and accommodating. Enjoyed our food choices, nice recommendations from server. Looking forward to returning and trying outside .“

“One of the staff thought it'd be 'funny' to try and steal my purse. I was watching the band play and he tried to take my purse from me. He only stopped pulling on my purse when my friend and I yelled at him. He tried to play it off as a joke. I didnt get his name. We left after the incident. This place is not safe for women when staff are behaving like this.“

“The quality of our local steak and shakes have significantly improved along with the staff. Much cleaner, tastes better, and even seems more filling than it used to. On top of that the new company policies like banning microwaves, beef tallow for their fried goods, and grass fed beef for the burgers. It went downhill a while ago but I can definitely say it has done a complete 360 and has honestly been one of our families favorite quick fast food locations now. Definitely better than McDonald's.“

“Excellent breakfast … also had breakfast at Maplewood and Sleepy Bee this week while in town, snd Dunlap was far superior in taste as well as super friendly service“

“Very good cod dinner with onion rings, steamed broccoli, bean soup, and Salad bar was very delicious. Highly Recommend.“

“Food was good. The service was excellent, but the alcohol was definitely diluted with water.“

“I am totally addicted to Cattleman’s , from steaks to boom boom shrimp, I have never had anything from there that I didn’t love- and to top off the fantastic food, they have fantastic people! Love me some steak, Kim, Kayla & Abbie Joe!! #theBest“

“Amazing Food, Amazing Environment, Amazing Service (Their service is top-notch)! This was our first time enjoying Sugar N Spice for Breakfast. The eggs were so fluffy, pancakes were perfection and meat was all so delicious!“
