49 Best Burger Restaurants in New Orleans

“HAD A GREAT TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS GOOD FOOD GREAT DRINKS!! GET YA SOME....“

“Bub’s served up some of the best smash burgers anywhere, accompanied by the best fries and onion rings. Add to that a refreshing selection of bottled beverages and welcoming staff (shout out to Erin at the Banks Street location!) and Bub’s is one of our go-to restaurants in NOLA!“

“My family and I absolutely love this place. We go to the Elmwood location most of the time! The staff is always friendly and helpful! Our only issue is we never know what to choose from because it’s all so good! Thank you District Donuts for always keeping your standards high and food fresh!“

“Happy to say I got slapped this week…“

“Blown away by the Shroom sandwich and the Dubai Shake!“

“I went to dinner with my wife. Large place and clean. Food was on point. Large portions. Service was great. Manager welcome everyone at the door. I had the thin catfish and my wife had the gumbo. Will come back next time in town. Thanks NOLA.“

“Best Burger I've had in a long time, you know that mouth watery feeling when you take bite and all the flavor hits your tongue and you just lean your head back and go ummmm, thats what that burger did to me and i just got an original single add bacon and was delicious. When i travel i like to find the best burger joint in town and I think i found my favorite! I'm from way outta state in Columbia, Missouri, but I'll buy a Burger from them everytime I come to New Orleans from now on!“

“Absolutely Amazing! One of my favorite places“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“We truly enjoyed the crawfish Creole beignets!!“

“Recommend for late night meal. Really good under the radar spot.“

“When I saw $21.95 for a 20oz ribeye I kinda chuckled in my head and expected a Waffle House type steak. I asked the waitress if it was good and she simply said “yeah, it’s good”. What transpired a few minutes later made me contemplate everything I thought I knew about a good ribeye. This thing was melt in your mouth, perfectly cooked, and had an absolutely astonishing flavor. Kick the price out the door. I live almost 4 hours away and would pay $80 for that steak as I type. It was so good I went back for another the next night. Gladly passing up all the other opportunities that NOLA has to offer. Weirdly the same people who we sat next to the night before were at the table next to us ordering the steak again. Astonishing what you get for the price. I could make a whole separate rant about how good the potato skins and gumbo are as well. Great job!!!! Best experience of our whole trip.“

“Amazing food, service and atmosphere.“

“Holy moly……..what a place👍 Great food, great drink, great atmosphere and an even greater host. Visit…..you will not be disappointed.“

“Delicious food. The entire menu“

“As a local, Backspace Bar is one of my favorite low-key spots in the Quarter. The playlists are peak millennial emo in the best way. The kind of music that makes you sing along and remember your Warped Tour years. I’ve never heard anything in here that wasn't on point.
Its location near several major music venues makes it an ideal stop before a show for a drink and a quick bite. Easy, convenient, and way better than wandering into a random tourist bar.
The menu is smaller, but everything is done really well and the portions are massive. The Brussels sprouts are my go-to and easily big enough to share with at least three people.
The staff is genuinely friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the overall vibe feels like a true locals bar hiding in plain sight among the overpriced BS.“

“Great selection of some of the finest bourbons made! The staff were great the food was excellent. We had the smoked tuna dip and we split a brisket sandwich! Highly recommend both!“

“Great Tasting Food! And Great For Body 💯“

“The fish plates are the best. I go every Friday ❤“

“One of the best poboys I have ever tasted.“

“Great place for dinner. We had 90 people and still fast service“

“Creative food items with delicious lunch and dinner specials. Great cocktails 🍹and friendly service!“

“I've eaten here before and the food is to be as expected. It's chicken, fish and fried rice. Simple food, so you know what you're getting. I have no problem coming back again and again. What I do have a problem with is that you can't make a phone order. So, if I wanted 1000 pieces, I'd have to wait for them to fry 1k wings? That would dang near take over an hour of wait time to fry that instead of letting me pay for it over the phone and just picking it up at a stated time.“

“Vegetarian friendly and great environment!“

“Went for 1st time to new location by City Park. Food as great as ever! Nice atmosphere and friendly servers. I’ll never stop loving it!“

“The bar staff were absolutely phenomenal. We had an absolutely wonderful experience. The food was exceptional. We will definitely be back!“

“We enjoyed lunch here on Mother’s Day with the stepdaughter and daughter-in-law. Our burgers were delicious. The atmosphere was nice and the music was great also. Will definitely go back.“

“great food quick service filling“

“Today is my son's 13th birthday and he's been a hothead/heat seeker for as long as I can remember. For perspective, he finally convinced Santa after 2 years to gift him the One Chip Challenge when he was 7. Today, his special request was to eat the hottest wings we could find, so my hubby found this place online last night. It's a short drive from Metairie, so although he wanted to do the Bayou Beast Challenge, we only had time to get a to-go order with all the other birthday errands we were running. We got a 6 piece of the Bayou Beast flavored wings. The gentleman checking us out was an absolute stand up guy who was equal parts concerned and impressed when he realized the order wasn't for me, but for the short kid standing next to me who told him he didn't want or need a dipping sauce. He even offered him a birthday coke (probably as a piece offering to the gods as an apology for what was going to transpire in my bathroom later🤣). Now to the fun part. I normally do these challenges with him, but today he wanted to fly solo. So I prepped the counter for him as usual with milk, yogurt, wipes etc. When I opened the box? YALL! The smell burned my eyes and instantly gave me PTSD from when I ate Da Bomb wing in the Hot Wings Challenge last year. My newly minted teenager the proceeded to smash all 6 in 5 minutes and did it like a pro without even a sip of water. I managed to get a single bite before they disappeared and I can guarantee you, the bathroom will be your sanctuary. I would not survive more than 2 as a grown adult. Maybe he's a glutton for punishment. Maybe he's a mutant. But what I do know is my dude is determined to beat that challenge and get that shirt and picture on the wall, so we'll be back very soon!“

“Always go to a Hard Rock Cafe when we visit a overseas country/ town. Love every one of them. The one in New Orleans was great. It's sad that the Cafes are slowly disappearing because of the private equity firms buying them and selling them off. LOVE HARD ROCK!“

“People are complaining about the stupidest things for low rating, like parking availability, etc. I think the restaurant should be evaluated on the food quality, staff, wait time, etc. Wait time was reasonable. Staff were friendly. I really enjoyed the burgers we got. I thought they tasted great and would be happy to go back here again. Onion rings were fantastic as well.“

“I went to dinner with my wife. Large place and clean. Food was on point. Large portions. Service was great. Manager welcome everyone at the door. I had the thin catfish and my wife had the gumbo. Will come back next time in town. Thanks NOLA.“

“Kayla here with a review you can trust. Follow my page ? @kaykreatesbeautyartist Nola Esthetician
Food was excellent, tasty and hot, 5/5 . I had an oyster on bun dressed combo. Paid $13 I think. Service was 4/5 . Not bad but not really any customer service at all, not rude but definitely not the nicest lol. Ok so the place itself just needs a nice lil update.“

“Great vibes friendly and loving staff and the owner is outstanding“

“Went here my first time in college 1977, age 22, walk in a girl grabbed my hand and had me dance with her. I was fairly awkward young guy, so this really boosted my confidence . It was such a memorable experience. I just remember having some beers and eating some delicious chicken wings and always coming here on a regular basis. I’m 69 years old. I will never forget this place. I hope it stays here forever.“

“Oh my goodness everything was amazing loaded with seafood in every bite I was in restaurant depo and started a conversation with a sweet lady asking her was the brand of shrimp she had in her basket a really good brand and she was kid enough to saying yes and she was telling me about their stuffed shrimp from there we headed to the location and it’s top tier fa me will stop by again!!!“

“What a treasure we stumbled upon on our recent trip to New Orleans. We rode the Ferry to Algiers Point with the intent to go to the recommended English Pub. Since they did not serve food and we were starving, we went in search of food. The Drift Inn Diner is charming and cool and decoratef with red and white and the perfect shade of blue- very retro. Heidi waited on us, and she was so friendly and took great care of us. I had the patty melt- swiss cheese, grilled onions, beef patty on light rye bread and it was delicious. The seemingly homemade pickle slices were really good. I also had a side salad with the perfect homemade roasted garlic vinagrette dressing. My hubs loved his Ltop burger that came with a mound of hot shoestring French fries. We had to try the also homemade soft serve ice cream. I'm still thinking about the in house celery soda that I didn't try. I highly recommend!“

“I’ve been visiting Deanie’s since the 90’s and have never had a bad meal. The crawfish bisque with stuffed crawfish, and the fried crab balls are wonderful.“

“Omg I love this Bk I never had any problems out of them. my food is always hot and on time it's always clean in side &out and the team workers and Managers are very respectful!“

“Food was amazing staff was great I have been to this place 8 months ago and its nothing like it was they must have been managers because the tall pretty lady manager she was so nice and the staff was friendly food was hot and correct will be back“

“a most excellent selection of wholesome food, drafts, wines, and cocktails.“

“I had a beautiful time with my family food was excellent and I will be visiting again Thank you were kind regards“

“his food is always good and hot and ready“

“Was home in 2020 for vacation from from Tennessee where I am living nowadays. Knowing a lot about the bar and restaurant industry before I retired. Was taken here by cousin to celebrate my birthday. The staff, food, drinks and atmosphere was A-1.“

“Pretty decent breakfast. They do a three-egg breakfast, which I really appreciate. Bacon was perfectly cooked. Coffee was good too. The grits, however, were slightly undercooked. They were ok, but they would have been much better if they were cooked about a half-hour longer. They required a lot of salt. Take your own sweet-n-low.“

“Went for their Taco Tuesday and it was fantastic! Great food, great margaritas, great atmosphere, great service!“

“The food was absolutely amazing! During our 5-day stay in New Orleans, we visited most of the city’s most popular restaurants, but surprisingly, the best food we had was right here at the Hyatt Regency restaurant. The shrimp, gumbo, oysters, and sushi were all delicious and top-notch.

Manager Arina and Kaleb made our evening truly special — warm, attentive, and full of great energy. Next time I’m in New Orleans, this will be the first place I come back to for an incredible meal.“

“I really enjoy Rally's food because their food is good and with the price of it makes it even better there's only a slight downside and that is the atmosphere and that's just where it's located at this location there's a lot of homeless people that are asking for money“
