50 Best Burger Restaurants near Potomac

“Great food and service was good“

“Great burgers. Salted peanuts in the shell are a nice treat. They know how to cook beach fries the right way (2 baths). Price is a factor, but the food is well executed. Potomac location has a few nice outdoor tables.“

“You won’t go wrong with anything 🦚❤️👍🏻“

“Food is what you expect from McDonald’s. I’m not giving McDonald’s food in general five stars but the level at which the staff here produces food so neatly and quickly is impressive. I have yet to get soggy fries or a messy sandwich or wrong order from this location.

Parking here generally sucks but I have my own solution that I won’t share hah. But do keep that in mind.“

“It was amazing“

“Without a doubt the best place in Rio. The customer service is exceptional and the staff really pays attention to you as a person, not just a customer. The food is excellent and the place is well maintained.“

“Salomon provided absolutely amazing service from start to finish. He was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better with his recommendation. He suggested the cheesesteak, and it was incredible—easily one of the best I’ve had. His knowledge of the menu and excellent customer service really stood out. Salomon went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and his recommendation did not disappoint. I’ll definitely be coming back“

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

“The food here is extremely delicious and they have the best fries I've ever had from a restaurant. Scrumptious... if it wasn't as unhealthy and expensive as it is I'd eat here every day. It's my favorite vegan food place in Rockville. I always get the Egg Sammy and fries. 1000/10 Updated from previous review on 2026-01-12“

“You will not leave hungry. Had to wait in line for awhile“

“❤️ Neutral Ground Bar & Kitchen“

“My family and I love PLNT Burger. It is always a special treat because the closest location is 40 minutes away. You can't go wrong with the cheeseburgers, fries and a shake. My kids love the grilled cheese kids meal. Marlon (Tysons location) always provides friendly service with a smile! I always know we'll have a great meal when he's working.“

“We visited for a celebratory lunch today, and Ryan took wonderful care of us! We ordered the focaccia appetizer, one Caesar salad (which we shared), and we each ordered the half-size Fusilli Bolognese. All items were outstanding and Ryan gave us some extra touches to make our event special. We’ll be back for our next celebration!“

“The brugers are so good even the mushroom burger (im shocked). but the outside seating area is not the cleanest so some birds were all up in my burger n fries. Still the selections are good. Also the music was too loud, but the sogns were so good so I didn't mind that much.“

“This was my second visit - had to try it based on reviews in FB Vienna Foodies group.

First time I ordered inside, and got the Social Burger and fries, both of which were great. This time I ordered from the app, and got a custom turkey burger, which was also excellent.

I'm in Vienna regularly these days and expect to be at Social Burger regularly as well.“

“The Owner, Mo, is the best ever!! Super polite and respectful and always provides the best service! I’ve been coming in since they first opened and can’t stop coming back! Best Halal Fried Chicken spot in NOVA hands down!“

“My apologies for the late review!!! I had a great experience at Checkers a couple weeks ago thanks to one of the employees who really went above and beyond. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything in my order was right. You can tell she actually cares about the customers, which made the visit a lot better.The food was also on point. The fries were fresh and tasted like they were cooked in clean oil — which makes a huge difference because sometimes they can taste old or mixed with other fryer items. Everything came out hot and fresh. Overall, excellent service and great food. Employees like her really make the experience stand out.“

“Wonderful experience, excellent customer service, delicious food, ambience was well lit, and the owner was exceptionally friendly and went out of his way to entertain us and give us free food to sample. We will definitely be going back there again.“

“Was in the mood for a good cheesesteak so we decided to try out a recommendation from the Vienna Foodies group! Our experience was great, great service and the food was good. My husband got the double double on a pretzel burger and I had the original cheesesteak! We were VERY impressed how the fries at the bottom of the basket were still crispy! We’ll definitely be back! 🔥💯👏🏽“

“Wonderful place! Greatest crowd excellent food super bartenders“

“The food and service was excellent! We will go back 😀“

“ Big Buns in Arlington, VA is where it's at! The place has this cool vibe going on – you walk in, and you just know you're in for a good time. The food? Man, they've got all kinds of stuff on the menu. Burgers that'll make your mouth water, and they even have this insane Unicorn shake for dessert – it's like something out of a dream. And don't even get me started on the drinks. They've got some seriously killer cocktails that'll knock your socks off. Oh, and did I mention the location? It's smack dab in the middle of Arlington, so it's super easy to get to. And the service? A+. The staff is friendly, and fast. So yeah, if you're in the mood for some good eats and a chill vibe, you gotta hit up Big Buns. Trust me, you won't regret it“

“I recommend eating in the establishment. It is very clean and the service is top notch.“

“I love this place ❤️. Highly recommend“

“We have eaten here several times now and the pizza is always amazing! their black truffle mushroom brie pizza is to die for. Today I tried Pizza Bianca and it tasted soo fresh, you can always taste the individual ingredients in the pizza.. and the Stubborn agave vanilla cream soda is addictive!“

“I was lucky enough to get to attend a World Cup watch party here and it was such a fun night. The burger and fries were absolutely delicious- generously and uniquely seasoned to perfection. The owner and staff cultivated such a warm, friendly, wholesome atmosphere and the sense of community with fellow fans was a beautiful way to experience the game. I definitely hope to return soon!“

“Good spot. I stopped by here because it's literally 40 feet away from my hotel lobby. Guy at the front was friendly and quite helpful, especially considering there were a total of 2 people running the spot. They're burgers are similar to a golden age Five Guys burger, without the egregious amount of grease involved. It's a good burger without the typical guilt of eating one. Would reccomend.“

“Very good expirience, tried the cheesteak and the wings. Both were amazing. The woman serving us was very nice and offered great customer service. The old bay wings were perfectly crispy and well seasoned. The cheesesteak had a great combination of sauce, bread, topping and beef.“

“Ballston Local is an amazing place to dine in, or order out. Everything in the menu was delicious and the brunch was far better than expected. Loved it every single time“

“Great place with great food and a good atmosphere“

“This place may be small and not very fancy, but the food is absolutely on point. I’ve also used them for catering, and everyone loved it. My favorites are the khachapoori with egg, the beef kabobs, and the chicken shawarma. I truly love this authentic restaurant.“

“Amazing customer service delicious food and fast service please go check it out“

“Okay, one gripe: I asked for a burger with ketchup, and never mentioned pickles. When I got the burger, it had pickles and no ketchup. Not a big deal, I took the pickles off and put some ketchup on it. It was a great burger, as usual. They just need to pay a little more attention. I still put a couple bucks in the tip jar because people have kids to feed.

That being said, great burger, great fries (and still a generous portion), and lots of Diet Coke.

Also a plus: terrific music on the speakers! I had Shazam open during the meal, and grabbed seven good songs that I'd never heard before. Yes!“

“Great dogs and beer selection. Cheese fries were also delicious. Would recommend to try this spot if in Bethesda, MD.“

“This is a really cool spot. The inside is nicely decorated, with lots of dog pictures!! They have lots of options. You can get the hot dogs as beef, veggie, or chicken. I got the Buffalo (blue cheese crumbles, chopped celery, sriracha, and ranch) and House (onion relish, mustard, mayo, celery salt) I really enjoyed both, especially the House Dog!! This is a Black owned, gourmet hot dog spot! Very cool!“

“Owner is a super great guy! We were visiting the metro area and ate twice on our stay. The bacon cheeseburger eggrolls are superior! Everything else we had was great as well!“

“The brunch charburger was fabulous…… only complaint would be that the grill cook burnt the bottom of the fried egg 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️“

“Great hamburger. Very friendly service and everything was cooked to order“

“Five stars for what they do alone...proceeds from Stray Cat Cafe and Lost Dog Sandwiches and Pizza next door donated to animal rescue. The menu at Stray Cat is a bit more sophisticated than the sandwiches and pizza next door - reliable comfort food. Pictures of cats adorn the walls. What's not to love here? Good craft beer list too, just like next door.“

“Great local great food , gotta go early, sadly don't take reservations“

“Four of us stopped by Silver Diner in Bethesda just for milkshakes, and they were excellent. I ordered the Chunky Munky, and it was absolutely amazing—thick, creamy, and packed with banana and Oreo pieces in every sip. It was one of the best milkshakes I’ve had in a long time. Everyone in our group enjoyed their shakes, and the service was friendly and quick. If you’re in the area and craving a great milkshake, I definitely recommend giving the Chunky Munky a try!“

“Fresh ingredients, great customer service.“

“Great Food!!!!! Thank you!“

“When I was a kid I hated their chicken..i don't think meat should be sweet...THESE GUYS ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR COME BACK..MANNNN CHICKEN SO GOOD MAKE U WAN SLAP UR GRANDMA.. I will be back!“

“The burgers are decent and the overall quality of the food is not bad. However, the beef patties tend to be a bit too greasy for my taste. On the positive side, the restaurant is very clean, and the staff is friendly and attentive, providing excellent customer service. If they could improve the quality of the meat and reduce the grease, it would be an even better dining experience.“

“I have been to this place about 10 years ago by one of my golf members who was an army veteran. My back ground is culinary/hospitality industry and was so impressed by service and also food quality.. His family and my family celebrated our special occasions every year. Now, we are coming back here again on August 27th to celebrate his 68th wedding anniversary and their 90years birthday also. This is his wife's pick and I and he are excited for next week event.“

“My friends and I went up to IHOP on Juneteenth. The restaurant was very busy. We had the best time. Are waitress was Kae’lah and she was a delight. She was honest, professional, compassionate, personal and cares about the customers which I am proud to say I am one of them.“

“Great food, but a bit odd that they chose to do QR code menus in a building with no reception. Wifi is available, but still.

Service was great, made us feel comfortable.

Based on the crowd and decor, looks like it might be a popular lunch spot for cops. Something to keep in mind if that bothers you.

“Pollo Xpress has become our family’s favorite restaurant! I’d argue they might have the best burgers and wings in the area🤤🍔🍗! My son even cleans his plate with their chicken, rice and fries. Now, with a new breakfast all day menu (haven’t tried it yet, but can’t wait) added, I’m sure this place will stay at the top of our list! This high praise from a tough food critic. Give them a shot and you will not be disappointed!“
