Best burger in Boston hands down! Whenever I am craving a giant, the size of my face, mouth watering burger, it has to be a burger from Lee's burgers! This location is not that big but it has a few tables and stools to dine in. It's an order at the counter and if you dine in they bring you your food to the table. My bf and I were craving juicy burgers so we drove up to Lee's. It was busy Saturday night, they had a lot of pick up and orders to go but we found a table to sit and dine in. I ordered the usual which is the two patty Lee's burger and my bf got their other signature burger. The fries came out first and they were perfect! They were super crispy and thick just how I like them. Our burgers came out next and they came out nice and hot! My Lee's burger was neatly wrapped up to keep it together because it was fully loaded! My burger was packed with bacon,peppers, grilled onions, fried egg and french fries and it was amazing! It was challenging to keep it together as I enjoyed every bite but I managed to devour it just fine. It really hit the spot!

Good burger, loved the fries. I'll be back. Exceeded expectations for a small burger place.

Local Burger takeout/small section to eat in. House Sauce needs to be bottled to take home. Always get the large milkshake. Fries are crispy. Guy Fieri needs to put Lee's on his list of must visit in New England.

Have been going here since high school. Great burgers and always get the special sauce.

First time here. Dude walked through everything and clearly knew how to interact with folks who have never been here before. Super patient and helpful repeating things as needed. Lovely interaction! Hamburgers look delicious. Cute little shop!

Got cheeseburger and fries. Both very good. Simple but well prepared. Bottom bun got a little soggy but I’d still order from them no

It's tight on there, but it's very cute. I think i need to try again with a real burger instead of the beyond. I used to really love beyond, but having their beyond burger now made me reevaluate. It was cooked to perfection though, so I'm sure if i go back for a real burger my rating will likely improve.

The universe has such a variety of options, but sometimes a mom & pop burger joint is just the thing.

I used to live in Brookline near Coolidge Corner and loved going to the Lee's Burger there. I was so glad to see another one close to me in Newton. Same delicious quality of food.

I feel like Lee's has been around for 50 years, and maybe it has, I really have no idea. Heading home from my sons hockey game my wife and I were headed to Buffs for some wings, or at least that was our plan. Our daughter, well, she had other plans for us. So we end up at Lee's, not upset about it, but wasn't what I was planning on. The people there could not have been nicer, the food was ready in no time at all and the it tasted better than I remember. I was pleasantly surprised with all the options on the menu. We ordered a turkey burger, two cheese burgers, fries, and buffalo wings. The fries are good and they were cooked just right. I got the turkey burger with lettuce, tomato, and pickles. We got it to go so I added ketchup and Lees special sauce. I think the special sauce is just seasoned mayo, but I liked it. The turkey burger was great. The cheese burgers were cooked perfectly, juicy pink center, and my wife and daughter devoured them. I ordered wings because I had my heart set on them when I was going to buffs. When I opened the container I was concerned, they didn't look good. They weren't fully coated in buffalo sauce and they had a funny looking coating on them. I am happy to say they taste better than they look. The coating was crispy, the sauce had good flavor and the chicken was good. The wings were good. This place is a better option than any of the new burger chains. The value, taste, and options are all better at Lee's. We look forward to going back, hope to try a milkshake next time.

Lee's is the best!' A family favorite, we all love it, all 10'of us. Both locations (Brookline and Newton) are excellent.
