12 Best Burger Restaurants in Hickory

“My wife and I really enjoyed the food and the location, but unfortunately, the service didn't meet expectations. Our server seemed disengaged and gave the impression that she didn't want to be there. Great customer service is a key part of what makes a dining experience enjoyable, and we hope that next time we visit, they'll have staff who are more enthusiastic about their work.“

“A hidden gem. It is not a sit in restaurant but the food is excellent. I love their desserts. My personal favorite is their livermush sandwich with slaw, onions and mustard. I dare you to try it. How do you all make the livermush so crispy. I can't do that at home without burning it.“

“I was having an argument with my brother about which burger was better, a whataburger or five guys burger? However I had never eaten a five guys burger. So I decided to give the five guys burger a try to settle the argument with my brother. I have to say, I see the difference in the taste quality when it comes to both places. Five guys burger has a taste quality that doesn’t get old. After a few times at whataburger which was great at first, however I began to get tired of it. Five guys wasn’t only refreshing but an amazing burger. Seriously the taste doesn’t get old. Only complaint I would have is, five guys needs ranch to serve to their customers. Other than that Kudos!“

“This place is actually really awesome inside and I know the owners and they are perfectionists. They’ve been working on their recipes and menu and honestly finished the remodel before Anything Else. I know that they are also trying to find the right people. It’s not just anyone to help launch this place. Rest assured to the guy that left a one star review this will be an amazing spot once they do pull the trigger.
PS I got to try some of their early runs at their menu items and it was amazing but they still felt it wasn’t up to par for what they wanted to launch with if that gives you any idea of how good it’s gonna be.“

“Food was good. Little greasy as expected. Only real complaint is how they do things for the drive thru. No one else at screens or window when we ordered/paid, but that’s because they put a sticker on your mirror and you have pull up past the window to park and wait on them to bring it out. Once you pay, there’s 3 lanes. 2 outer lanes to park and wait and a middle for leaving. We sat there for almost 30 mins waiting on 2 plain burger combos. Some people that were there before us, were still there after we left. They come out wandering around confused as they are trying to match the order to the number on your rear view mirror. It was an odd experience and not one I plan to repeat anytime soon. Really shouldn’t take that long for fast food.“

“The food here is amazing! The first time we went a few weeks ago we had the Friday night date special. Such a great deal for all the food! The tacos, corn, and ramen were popping with flavor! We loved it so much we went again tonight. I had the Cali chicken special with horchata and my husband got the tacos. Our waitress was great and kept our drinks filled and checked in often to make sure we were good. I have been telling everyone about this hidden gem. You will not regret trying it for yourself!“

“Great food today at Kool Park pool. I had the club and my son had the chicken tenders both came with fries. He said these are the best fries I’ve ever had! Courteous and fast service. Would definitely try again!“

“Thomas Hammond, manager , great service, GREAT food. Best in North Carolina“

“OK, wait is long“

“Thank God for Jack in the Box! Even through covid they kept up there extended hours. I’m a night owl and NOTHING is open late anymore! Somehow Jack in the Box has managed to sustain their late hours and keep decent employees. I don’t know how they do it when no one else has seem to be able to, but they seriously deserve some recognition for it 👏 And I appreciate their variety. Where else can you get tacos and choros, and a burger and shake, and boba freaking tea!!? Kudos! Love ya!“

“We love Hardee’s, but we were very disappointed on our last visit, we ordered 10 piece chicken tenders, we got home and we had very small pieces. We called the store and the employee stated that they decided to fry up some end pieces. Very disappointed, not enough to serve the 2 of us, thank you .“

“Our experience was awesome. Elijah our server was great. Honestly one of the best servers we have had it a long time. Our food was perfect and the staff all seemed to be helping each other. Great place to eat if your ever in Hickory NC.“
