50 Best Burger Restaurants near Marlow Heights

“I CAME TO CHECKERS THE FOOD WAS GOOD AND HOT THE CASHIER WAS VERY NICE I WILL BE BACK AGAIN“

“Lovely Service ❤️ Great food really enjoyed“

“William gave me exceptional service when I stopped in for coffee yesterday. He greeted me cheerfully, offered to help me order at a kiosk, and did the same for others while I waited for my order. He really impressed me as I can’t remember ever receiving that level of service at a McDonald’s. Also, my coffee was made exactly how I ordered it.“

“I went with a friend to The Capital Burger on Newbury last week. The space was clean and comfortable, our server was really friendly, and the food came out fast. Great experience—I’d come back without a second thought.“

“The smash burgers and fries are indeed delicious! The special sauce they serve is to die for! And the staff genuinely care about their customer and their restaurant. I was disappointed that they had no lettuce, tomato, mayo, mustard, or salt, and that they charge for extra sauce (I was using it on my fries). The friendly, handsome cashier gave my friend and I cards for free burgers and asked that I leave a review, which showed they care about their customers having a great experience and appreciate the feedback. Oh yeah, I thought the smashburger should be listed as such on the menu, and that they should be either bigger or cheaper. Over all I'd give them a 4.5!“

“The weather was great for out door dining, the Burger-Fi and Swag Burgers were excellent, the fries need some work. The nuggets were extra crispy and tough.“

“Amy recommended this through the DC by foot walking tour Facebook page… and it did not disappoint me! I had the BLTA… Bacon, lettuce, tomato, and avocado sandwich… And it was awesome. I may not be able to go to it again this trip… But I’ll plan to add this to one of my favorites.“

“My girlfriend and I went here three days in a row 🤣 it’s the best burger in the DMV in my opinion, as someone who was born and raised in the area. The smash burgers are so fresh and loaded with the house-made sauce, onions, pickles, and tomatoes, and served on a fluffy bun. Highly recommend the savory truffle sauce for the fries. Get the double patty burger and you gotta try the ube soft serve. Will definitely come back. Just wish there were more seating inside, but there’s parks nearby where you can eat so it’s not too bad“

“Had 1 buffalo chicken pizza and 1 meatballs pizza with fries. My only issue is the meatballs had zero favor but then the fries saved the day. I almost turned around in a storm to get more fries. No one else is allowed to order fries anymore. MINES😆“

“EASILY one of THE BEST burgers I’ve ever had! And I LOOOOVE burgers! It’s seasoned to perfection! The hun is soft and buttery with a light toast to it! And It digest so well! Quality is A+++++++++++ Never had bad service! I love it here!! 😃🤤“

“Excellent experience, excellent food, and excellent service! Thanks Lenny!“

“yes I recommend plnt Burger“

“Recommended, did not disappoint, had the Po Boy, very filling, parking can be a challenge, but overall, worth the travel.“

“My son and I were visiting DC and always looking for a good burger. The burgers were outstanding. One of the best I have ever had.“

“Good burger and fries. Bring back milkshakes please!“

“The food was delicious.“

“Not too often do I get to have French toast and French fries at the same time“

“Definitely try the bison burger. If you’re ok with meat that melts in your mouth.“

“My family and I wandered in after seeing a recommendation online. Hill East Burger did not disappoint! The atmosphere was fun and the food was delicious. The staff was also very friendly to our obvious party of non-regulars😊.“

“We stop in because my daughter with special Down syndrome needed to use the bathroom really bad. Even though there was a no public bathroom policy, the young lady althat greeted us was very gracious and allowed her to use it. Unfortunately, I did not get her name. I decided to place an order
At this point Kia assisted me and she was very hospitable and welcoming. But what impressed me the most was the cleanliness of tje restaurant. I often get nervous allowed my daughter to use public restrooms, but this one was very clean and Kia stood at the door while I went in to assit my daughter to clean herself and get dress. A definite 10/10 experience. I'll be back!“

“Could not recommend this place more! 10/10 - service was impeccable, food was amazing, and location was great. All you can eat brunch does not disappoint. They go above and beyond for their customers. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Great place to go after a long day or on a date . The staff was awesome when it came to what wine may be best to try with which dinner . First timers or old heads to wine excellent place to visit . Will visit every time I am in town“

“Full disclosure, I'm a bit biased - this is the 13th Hard Rock Cafe I've been to, and one that I had been waiting since 1989 to come back and visit. I took a picture of the "Coming Soon" sign in the window during my 8th grade Washington D.C. trip, and just now got to come enjoy the place. It's decked out in a perfect mix of rock n' roll and homage to our great country; the decor is entertaining and fitting. The food was awesome - I had the pulled pork sandwich, which was delicious. My husband had the burger, also delicious. Fries were perfect - crispy on the outside, ooey gooey on the inside. Our server was very sweet and even took interest in the 1989 photo I brought with me, taking a picture of my picture! :) All in all, I was not disappointed, even after having built it up for over 3 decades in my head - that's saying a LOT.“

“[Delivery] This is exactly what you expect: good, sloppy, American classics. I'm not in love with the cheese, but the aioli is phenomenal, and the meat is really good too. The spicy chickn is my personal favourite, but I'm slowly working my way through the menu and have yet to be disappointed.“

“Quit -____- still confused why Louisvilles food scene is absolutely out of this world but we do not have “fast food vegan” honestly blows my mind. Absolutely stopped here, got burgers and wings and fries. I couldn’t have been more happy. Maybe waited around 10/15 minutes for food to be ready which is actually nothing. So satisfied.“

“IF YOU LIVE WITHIN 500 MILES OF THIS PLACE, STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GET YOURSELF A CHICKEN CHESAPEAKE SANDWICH IMMEDIATELY! #wow #11+“

“We noticed a huge line outside Good Stuff Eatery the night before, so we decided to come back and see what all the excitement was about. I'm glad we did.

I ordered the Spike's Sunnyside Burger, fries, and a chocolate milkshake. The burger was really good and definitely above average. The only small issue was that the bun was a little flat and had a hard time holding together with such a big burger.

The fries tasted like they were hand cut and had great flavor, but the real standout was the milkshake. It was rich, creamy, and honestly one of the best milkshakes I've ever had.

Overall, this is an easy place to recommend if you're in Washington, DC. We'd definitely come back.“

“Best Detroit style pizza I have ever had. Michaela was an incredible server. I recommend location near Howard University in DC!! A must when in town.“

“We were on our way to another place in the area and got stopped by the charismatic owner. He sold us on the live music and menu items. That was all we needed to hear. The drinks were flowing (the bartenders pour to get you tipsy), the food was flavorful and the service was great. We enjoyed everything we ordered and we are tough critics! It was a really cool experience and we will be back for sure.“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“Had the Smash Burger at Ted’s and it was just exceptional. Opted for the Beef and it was juicy, flavorful, with a fantastic bun. 2 thumbs way up!!“

“If you like smash burgers then 7th Street Burger is the place to be at! While everything is simple, it's still very good and satisfying. They serve actual smash burgers too not them fake ones. I've literally went here multiple times in a week, that should tell you something lol The atmosphere is pretty cool, they have a good playlist too. The customer service is usually on point, I haven't had any bad experiences. There's times when the food comes out in a timely manner. Special thanks to the staff for keeping things going. Aaron and Will y'all are the MVPs. I highly recommend checking out 7th Street Burger!“

“love stoneys please put fried pickles on the menu tho“

“I made it to the happy hour with the work crew. We’ve been hanging out for a bit and the drinks are solid - the Aperol Spritz is definitely a highlight. The food is also hitting the spot, so it’s been a pretty good time overall. I will come back :)“

“The food is amazingly fresh and delicious.“

“Enjoyed coming here with my family. The young woman at the counter was so friendly. I told her I was hard of hearing and she was so patient with me. The young woman's name is Unique. She really cares. The food was good but the customer service was excellent. This was our first time in the DC area. We will definitely come back here on out next trip here.“

The sandwich with the red sauce 8.8/10 nice healthy pieces of chicken, the Mac and cheese 9.2/10 the top was nice and crispy and the cheese was super creamy. Now the Banana pudding 9.8/10 nice thick pudding not watery at all the wafers were perfect bringing my total score to 27.8/30. the portions are well balanced!! Yeah I plan on returning to try 3 more random items from the menu“

“Best egg dishes in DC! It’s a must-try destination!“

“Great food. Very friendly staff“

“If I could give Burgers @ Apollo 10 stars, I absolutely would! From the moment I walked in, the customer service was outstanding. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect.

The burger was cooked to perfection—juicy, flavorful, and made with fresh ingredients. The fries were hot, crispy, and seasoned just right. Every bite was worth it! The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was inviting, and the food came out quickly.

If you’re looking for one of the best burgers around, Burgers @ Apollo is the place to go. Great food, great service, and a great experience every time. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone craving an amazing burger!“

“If you're craving bold flavors, crispy fries, and burgers that pack a punch, Checkers is the spot! Every visit feels like a win, especially when you're handed a hot, juicy burger and a box of their perfectly seasoned fries—honestly, some of the best in the fast-food game.

The Big Buford is my go-to: loaded with flavor, stacked high, and always fresh. The fry-seasoned chicken tenders are another underrated gem. And don’t sleep on the milkshakes—thick, creamy, and exactly what you want to finish off the meal.

Service has always been quick and friendly, even during busy times. The drive-thru is efficient, and the food is consistently hot and made to order. I appreciate how Checkers stays true to what it does best: bold, no-nonsense fast food that never disappoints.

If you're hungry and want something fast, flavorful, and filling—Checkers delivers every time. Five stars, easily!“

“My Big Brotha love this place He would stop by atleast 2 times a week while he was working and order The Pork Bar B Q Sandwich with Cole slaw We stopped by Saturday that was the best NC Bar B Que outside of North Carolina“
