50 Best Burger Restaurants near Watertown

“Best burger in town and I love the sweet potato fries!“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“What a fun place!! Like stepping back in time in the best sense and the food and service and everything is top notch. We will definitely be back!!“

“Ive lived in the area for 7 years and drove by this place many times and never felt inspired to check it out based on its curb appeal. Inside its a standard mid-sized local sports bar that I get the sense has a loyal local following. To my surprise food was above average and staff was very very friendly. Full bar, but limited draft selection if your a beer snob this probably isnt your spot.“

“The food is always fresh and delicious! Love the ‘Shroom burger and the crinkle-cut fries.“

“fast and efficient customer service. Definitely recommend the Hamburger and fries“

“I was in Boston for a day and needed something to eat to hold me down for a few hours. I found this place inside a whole foods. It was weird. Nobody was there to take my order. I thought it was closed, but the hours stated it was open. I noticed the option of placing my order online via a QR code. So I did. 10 minutes later my food arrived. For the record, it was 1 BBQ burger. It looked like something you'd get at McDonald's. And tasted like the Rodeo Cheeseburger at Burger King. Actually brought back lots of memories from my childhood. Really good in a junk food kind of way. The menu actually had lots of options, all fast food inspired. I would love to go back and try it all. A bit pricy tho.

“Best burger in Boston !!!“

“Great burger! Friendly, attentive staff. Thank you for a great day out!“

“Blows away fancy burger joints at almost half the price.“

“Burgers are the best! Service is always friendly absolutely my favorite!!!!!“

“The gentleman working inside the truck is the absolute best and so funny. The food is top notch, and the shakes are out of this world. I highly recommend this food truck!!“

“First time at Cityside last night and it was great! The Nachos were so good I wish we had gotten a large, the buffalo wings had a nice crisp to them which made them amazing. For entrees I had the fish tacos which were good but not all that and my fiancé had the cheesesteaks which can’t be compared to cheesesteaks on the North shore but still good. The drinks were good but pretty pricey. My fiancé liked every drunk he got besides the Mai Tai. It was super nice being on the roof top which made the entire night 💕 I definitely would recommend.“

“Very good, But I don't want to hamburger anymore“

“The place itself was nice, clean, and comfortable, I ordered the brunch burger, and unfortunately it arrived cold. I’m sure it would’ve tasted much better if it had been hot. On the bright side, the fries were really good, crispy and flavorful. Overall, a good experience, but I hope the food temperature is better next time, especially coming from a restaurant associated with Gordon Ramsay.“

“Went here for dinner after a Bruins game. It’s a 3 minute walk from the Garden, great food (Pub style), great service, decent prices. Definitely will be back.“

“Best chicken bites! Highly recommend ♥️“

“Food and service were both spectacular.

Pizza was shared as an appetizer and was extraordinary. Totally fresh ingredients and flawless crust.

Clams and spaghetti was another great choice. Chocked full of clams, light lemon flavor, and great portion size.

Desserts were also top notch

Guillermo proved incredible service from the initial greet and all the way through payment. Fantastic server.“

“Roxy’s food truck catered an event at my job today and it was amazing. Between the grilled cheese selection, tomato soup, and tater tots it’s hard to pick a favorite. They were all amazing! The hot honey grilled cheese with bacon was addictive! Their team that did the set up and catered the event were so nice and friendly. If you get the chance to try their food do it! It will not disappoint.“

“Such a chill vibe!! I will be making this a regular spot.“

“Delicious! Burgers & Cousin Stizz fries were so good!“

“Quick and friendly service!“

“My opinion is 9.6/10. Came here because of man vs food did the 2 lbs burger. This place till this day has the juiciest burger meat I ever had was literally dripping down my arm, but not only juicy flavorful and highly enjoyable. I don't like Boston, as a NYer but this place is the only reason I would ever go back. Check out my in depth video reviews on any of the platforms below.

“A real Boston Irish pub! Not tacos or pasta here like alot of the others. Only pub we go to in Boston.“

“Haven't been to this place in years but, boy sm I glad I did. Got a steak onion and cheese sub at 8 AM, because I could order that at what would be other shops " Breakfast only" time. Nice soft roll ,steak NOT chopped to oblivious gravel like other shops. This spot IS the spot for a steak and cheese . I'm gonna go back and try all the ol standards again done right. Kudos. Can't wait to try a simple hit dog. Believe it or not, people screw that up . But according to the reviews I've seen, they're done just right. It's really nice to know that these non pretentecious simply good food places still do exist.“

“Old fashioned fast food! Delicious!“

“I ordered and picked up catering for an off-site staff party, and everything was nicely labeled, well prepared, and very delicious. Prices were more than reasonable, and the staff was very easy to work with. There's a nice menu (lunch, dinner, snacks) with plenty of options.“

“Omg! The lemon rice soup is fantastic! It can heal whatever you’re suffering from. I also recommend the chicken salad. I never thought I would ever rave about chicken salad but Maria’s Kitchen has the best I’ve ever had! Love this place!!“

“Great experience here for sure! Tried shake shack for the first time this afternoon, gentlemen at the front counter was extremely friendly and had a great personality while keeping a sense of humor and professionalism at the same time. Definitely will be back. Food was great as well!“

“Love so much about this place, the food is really good - the staff are so nice and friendly. They make you feel welcome. Love our Sunday brunches here.“

“Delicious chicken sandwich“

“Fun cool and comfortable creative“

“This humble little restaurant offers fresh and tasty food, in generous portions. That’s real food, not processed fast food. Pleasant interiors, comfortable seating, clean restroom.
The food is served with real plates and utensils, not disposable.

Good food, good service, good value, good people 👍“

“Great date night please the small cozy spot. It’s very difficult to get walking. It’s better to do a reservation earlier. The burgers were extraordinary. I even like that cocktails. The only problem was getting parking around that area.“

“My go-to spot was too busy for takeout tonight, so I tried this place. I must say their steak tips were amazing and I now found a new go-to place! Delicious!“

“Was a great experience really good food. A good amount of options and decent size plates and for those that want a drink of alcohol they have that well. Definitely getting staff and very friendly and helpful. The only thing I will say is it can be expensive but worth it . I definitely will go back and try other food.“

“It was great places and I love this service because the waiters is very nice“

“Damn good“

“Family run restaurant located in an industrial area of Wakefield. Great food at good prices. Because they are off the beaten path, there is usually no waiting for a table.“

“The burgers are next leve!! fresh, You can really taste the quality and care that goes into the food. The menu has something for everyone, and everything is made just right. On top of the amazing food, the atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is friendly!! Highly recommend if you’re looking for one of the best burgers around! 🙌🍔“

“Excellent vibe, great food selection and cold Guinness 👍🏼👍🏼“

“The restaurant is well-decorated and embodies the spirit of Boston in its decor. They offer a variety of items, from small plates to large. The beer selection includes both local and global options. The food dishes are beyond ordinary preparation, featuring a fusion of multiple cuisines, but with careful attention to avoid overshadowing any one cuisine. The veggie burger might sound simple, but even with lettuce wraps, it was juicy and the sauces were like warm hugs to the burger. The sides weren’t just plain house potatoes; they were crispy yet flavorful.“

“Best Nashville hot sandwich along with fantastic southern sides hands down! No other competition out there, it’s just that good!“
