50 Best Burger Restaurants near Fort Wright

“I've I've been going to this place for a long time. The manager Michael had a big order I was impatient because I had to wait a moment. I think Michael is an upstanding manager6 his demeanor was professional and he kept his calm and stayed cool. I give him an AA Plus. And I love my Whopper plan with iced coffee.“

“12-09-19 picked up Lunch through the drive thru around 12:30p to 12:45p. I received excellent friendly service from both windows. I also wanted to give special thanks to whoever put together my special request Keto style Double today, it seems you really put care into making my hamburger perfect. It’s nice when services and food prep exceed expectations. Thank you!“

“I had an outstanding experience at this Dairy Queen that truly deserves recognition. I accidentally pulled up to the drive-thru about 5 minutes after closing (completely my fault for not checking the hours). All the lights were already off, but as I was driving by the window, the manager kindly flagged me down with a big smile.

He let me know they were closed, but said he was happy to still help and serve. I felt bad for keeping him late, but he insisted that he wanted us to be happy. That kind of genuine customer service is so rare these days and left a lasting impression on me.

Huge credit to the management here—this kind of attitude speaks volumes about how much they care about their customers. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend this location!“

“Best gut bombs 💣 in the USA 🇺🇸“

“The smash burgers and fries are yummy! I just wish that they still served their delicious pies for dessert. It's a real shame to not serve something so mothwatering good as their honey vinegar pie.“

“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.“

“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!!“

“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!"“

“Great Food! Great Service! and Great Deals!! My favorite is their Fish Sandwich with Tarter Sauce & Fries for $10 + tax. The Sandwich and Fries were both so GOOD!! I recommend it! I will be ordering mine withing minutes!!“

“Fantastic food and service. You won’t be disappointed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩“

“Nothing but a good vibes every time I come! the waiters and waitresses are super friendly, amazing burgers and milkshakes and cheap for the amount of food you get! and they're always playing the best music!“

“Great burger. 10/10. Friendly service.
Ordered the zips double burger with cheese and bacon.
Tasted like a classic American cheeseburger with 2 full length bacon strips.
You are going to need to take big boy bites if you order the double.“

“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.“

“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“

“Friendly, neighborly atmosphere. Service was excellent! Best burger you will have“

“went to Swensons on Madison road in Cincinnati ohio. We had been meaning to try this since it open. We were a little disappointed in the serving size of the fries, Double cheese burger, and Fried bologna sandwich. Taste wise it was great. Service was fast and friendly. I'd recommend to anyone but I'd definitely recommend to double your order if you want enough to eat.“

“The place is great. So comfortable. Stylish. The food and service was great. Thanks Rex for being so amazing and fun. I have been here a few times and I'm never disappointed. The only negative I would say is that the music is too loud for conversations if you are sitting in the booths. Everything else was AMAZING“

“All the food is excellent but the chicken wings might be the best is the area. I have enjoyed wings from all around Greater Cincinnati but none are as good as Tickle Pickle wings. Service is outstanding and the place is very clean.“

“Stopped by at The Turf Club after a coworker recommended I check it out while in town. I had the filet mignon burger and duck fat fries. One of the best burgers I've ever had! You can tell they use high quality ingredients. Loved the atmosphere along with the owner and staff. Definitely worth visiting and I will be back again the next chance I get!“

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

“My family and I was there today to celebrate my mothers birthday, we ABSOLUTELY loved the food them ribs are to die for, however the memorable part was our server Tonya, I think I’m saying her name right, she was AMAZING I mean she engaged with my mom and son like if she was apart of the Family and THAT took us right away, the only downside was by the time we had received our drinks she was no longer our server which REALLY upset my mother, However the new server was nice she just wasn’t her,,, we LOVE the spot and enjoyed the whole atmosphere and my mother and Family DEFINITELY will be back we just hope that we run into that server Tonya again!!! OUR NEW FAVORITE SPOT!!!“

“Friendly server.Prompt service.“

“Always pleasant staff. Keep up the good work.“

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

“Good hamburgers & fries , ice cold pop“

“Last time we came here we had a gift card for Oakley kitchen, and the man working at the time (April 16th 2024 actually) did sketches and drawings and was super nice, (also the burgers are phenomenal) he figured out how to use the gift card perfectly fine and even rung us up a second time for another order. We came again today and they suddenly can’t take the gift card, it’s a 100 dollar gift card and there’s only four places even open here with fat Al’s being one of the two places we’re interested in. Really dissapointing as it was used perfectly fine the last time TWICE and we drove half an hour to get here specifically for their burgers. The manager was on the phone and said they were one of the last people to switch to using a card (or something like that??) but again it worked last time we came so that doesn’t make any sense :/ our visit today was on 4/30/24.“

“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!“

“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!“

“great food, we were pleasantly surprised“

“So good! We got the Steph's sampler, added toast and a biscuit. $30 for two with coffee. We love the echo! Stephanie and the staff are great. Everything is so clean and well run especially for how busy it is. The line was long but went fast.“

“This is an alright Five guys with good food and good service. I normally don’t do national chains much when I’m in Cincinnati, but when it’s the only option I usually go for this Five Guys. It’s definitely worth going to if you like Five Guys.

Dietary restrictions: PEANUTS! PEANUTS EVERYWHERE! If you have a peanut allergy, then stay away.

Parking: Really big parking lot.“

“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!“

“COA would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for Topped Fries Food Truck exceptional service today. Their prompt and thorough responses to all of my inquiries were invaluable and truly made a difference. The delicious food options they provided was outstanding, receiving nothing but rave reviews from our staff. We look forward to having you back again.“

“I visit other Frisch's and have never had a bad experience, but this Frisch's at 20 Kyle's Lane, Covington, KY location is 5-Stars Tops!!! Haley who works the Drive-thru Window Service and her Teammate Co-workers do an Outstanding Job. The Cook-Staff Team does a Remarkable Job on everything they cook/grill up, never has there ever been any food item that was not worthy of 5-Stars. A few friends who visit this Frisch's location have commented how glad they are that this Restaurant is in their neighborhood, they always have great experiences when visiting. Keep Up the Great 5-Stars Service!!!“

“I haven't been here in so long. It was great. The menu is strait forward and that's good. The order experience is quick and informative with the screens.

My wife and I loved our food. I got the Double combo and she the one with bacon. Added some San Francisco sauce which went great with the shoestring fries.

Here's the thing - all of it came out hot and fresh and ready for us to enjoy. The staff was friendly, the restaurant clean. Great meal!“

“True customer service here I would give Bruce my cashier in the drive through a 10 star review! Just when I thought customer service no longer existed then I stop here for lunch the drive through line moved quickly my food was exact to order and Bruce is a truly dedicated top notch employee who is well mannered and very professional! Every company needs workers like Bruce Food was hot and delicious highly recommend this Steak and Shake“

“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.“

“When I went into this restaurant they gave me lollipops to choose from and they handed my mom something like in a box. It was a mystery and then when we opened it it was cheesesteak and it was Oreo cheesecake. So that was yummy. And I had the hot dog and it was fine. I also had fries which were pretty good. They had this cool display of license plates from other states. and their drinks were really good. I had Pepsi which was nice and the tables were clean so that was good. That's why I recommend you eat here.“

“Was looking forward to the beer braised tofu sandwich but the other tofu hoagie was good too. Maybe next time Greatbupbeat place to dine.“

“Had the Jean Robert and it was pretty good. I would have preferred a little less Bleu and a little more goat cheese. The Bleu was a little too forward on the taste, but still real good. The fried jalapeños were amazing. It's four whole stuffed-with-cheese-and-cream-cheese jalapeños.
The mac and cheese was fantastic with a little added salt and pepper.
Don't remember what my sister got but it was also amazing.
One of my favorite spots.“

“Best place ever to go eat“

“I've been a fan of Steak n Shake for a long time. I don't have any close to my home, so when I have an opportunity to visit one, it's always a treat.
I haven't been in a Steak n Shake in several years, and I was rather disappointed in the fact that they no longer offer table service, you place your order at a kiosk. There was very little ice available in the soda fountain, and it was really warm in there (it's late July, so it's hot outside!).
The food arrived quickly, and it was as delicious as I remembered. I understand and appreciate the fact that the staff is doing the best they can, so I can't say they were not doing their jobs. I just miss the way it used to be.“

“Craft Burger Bros is one of my favorite burger choices. The Southern Belle is the best! The bacon jam is to die for! Great food and great people!“

“don't usually write reviews, but this one? This one's from the heart.

Tucked into the corner of a hot summer day was a moment of pure magic — and it came in the form of a double scoop and a man whose kindness could melt even the coldest sundae.

The ice cream? Divine. Creamy as a cloud, rich with flavor, and clearly made with love. Whether it was the velvety swirl of salted caramel, the bold bite of espresso chip, or the sweet, nostalgic hug of birthday cake crunch — each spoonful felt like a tiny celebration in my mouth. You can taste the difference when someone actually cares, and trust me, this place? Cares big time.

But here's what really makes this place my number one go-to...

The man behind the counter.

He wasn’t just friendly — he was soulfully kind. You know the type: someone who greets you like an old friend, listens when you talk, remembers your favorite flavor even if it’s been weeks. The kind of human who makes the world feel just a little softer, a little slower, and a lot sweeter.

In a world that rushes by, he made me feel seen. Not just as a customer — but as a person. His smile was genuine, his service effortless, and his presence? A comfort I didn’t realize I needed that day.

People like him are rare — and flavors like these? Even rarer.

So if you're ever looking for a place where ice cream hits your soul and the man scooping it out feels like family… don’t walk. Run. This isn’t just a shop. It’s a sanctuary.

And to the kind-hearted legend behind the counter:
You’ll always be my number one go-to. 🍦❤️“

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

“Truly a wonderful experience. I have been here before and it was awesome. Brought my boyfriend to try it. His grandma is from England. He grew up with all these dishes. Loves to cook them. The environment & great food brought back many good memories of her. Thank you for that!!! Our server was genuine, efficient & friendly. Yummy food. I had your Fish- wow! The best!!! Thank you!!! ❤️.“

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

“This morning I went inside the restaurant and MS PAM made my day! She was the only employee there and made my favorite (loaded salmon and grits!!!) and it was sooooo perfect 👌🏾 I couldn’t help but to do a happy dance when I tasted my food!!!! She made sure I got it exactly to my liking and she was so welcoming and down to earth I felt like I was in there talking to one of my older aunts! I will definitely be back! 👉🏾 and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! My salmon and grits with onion and peppers was OFF THE CHAIN!“

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