50 Best Burger Restaurants in Raleigh

“A year later and the question remains on where the server disappears to. Burger was good. Fries were over cooked. Happy they have zero proof cocktails but why do they cost more than real cocktails.

Burgers were good and the kids enjoyed the shakes. My cocktail was also good. The fried deviled eggs were different and delicious. The only thing bothersome were the flies. I counted at least 6 hovering. Our server also disappeared for a bit. Do they go on break when they have tables?“

“I went with my family who was visiting from Florida and we all enjoyed the burgers which were well crafted and very delicious. The place was super clean and the staff were very nice and helpful. They have creek stone beef and staff verbally confirmed the halal status. The prices are very reasonable

Dietary restrictions: Halal“

“Just yummyyyy I do not eat out often but so glad to do so today! Hard to find clean, healthy option places to eat. This place is now my favorite. Worth the drive and downtown drama!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We live in Smithfield and drive all the way to the farmers market just for the snowthies. But of course we get the crispys too.They are all so good, but our new favorite is the mango snowthie.“

“Sean’s Shack is hands-down serving the BEST burger I’ve had anywhere in Raleigh and that’s saying something! Juicy, perfectly seasoned, cooked to absolute perfection, and stacked with fresh toppings that actually taste like they were picked just for my order. Every bite was pure magic. Friendly service, great vibes, and food that makes you want to come back the next day (and the day after that). If you’re in Raleigh and you love burgers, stop what you’re doing and get to Sean’s Shack. You can thank me later.“

“Burgers 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I will be back“

“Decided to dine with Bad Daddy for lunch. Overall the burger was delicious, however I found “Daddy’s Rules” a little discouraging. Very 2007 of them… sorry Bad Daddy, but I am your daddy and I don’t think I’ll come back. Or at least not make a special trip.“

“This place still feels relatively trendy, even though it's been open for years. Our appetizer, the nachos with ahi, was simply amazing. The sushi itself was good. And we were there on a Wednesday, which was half price bottles of wine, a nice surprise, indeed. Our server was friendly, bubbly, and very attentive. Overall, a really good experience!“

“My husband, Randy and I ate here for lunch on Tuesday 11/10/2020. It's the first time that we are there. The cheeseburger was char-grilled... Just like what you would cook on the grill in your backyard!!! 😊 I would love to ask "Back Yard Burgers" can you build a "Back Yard Burgers" in Wake Forest, NC or Youngsville, NC? Pretty Please ❣️“

“Very nice & friendly. No dine in. The guy said there was a table outside to eat at, I looked, didn't see 1. Small area. Reasonable prices. Good taste.

Parking: Very small area, busy drive through. I did find a place to park. If busy for eat in car, parking could get crowded,as there's no dine in. There is a take out window. There were a few times while there, would of had to wait to get out due to drive through being busy, it did move through faster than I expected.“

“Love the shake shack burgers! This location is inside the home of the Carolina Hurricanes and NC State Wolfpack. Usually a very long line to get food but it is worth it! Have never tried the shakes but I see people smiling after they eat them so I gotta assume they are great.“

“Amazing 38 flavors and fresh food. 👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“This is how I would picture a diner in the 1950s. Short order cook with a ring full of little paper orders. Service was instant, burger was better than expected, the atmosphere made me smile, and they have tater tots! I will definitely go again. nice change from a typical fast food place.“

“Love the double cheeseburgers and their fries are spot on!“

“I haven’t ate at this location in over 10 years. I don’t know if it’s under new management but Muhammad customer service skills is out of this world. I thought I was at chick Fila! He deserves a raise! Thank you so much Muhammad, I will be back! They have a 99 sanitation grade!“

“Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere for our USPS meet up on Wednesday August 9.“

“Food nasty and the owner has a even nastier attitude. Just because this is a black owned business it doesn't mean we have to lie and say the food is good, when in most cases you cant even eat a bite of it due to the amount of salt on the food. I will always give a honest review no matter the owners skin color. This owner is rude and will block you for leaving a honest review if it is not to his likings. Hopefully one day he will get it together, take the critism and make some improvements“

“These guys were great stop by get a wrap and pick up a few of the Grab N Go meals from the freezer. Or order the weekly meal plan.“

“The manager was absolutely fantastic. He assisted other guests using the order screens, was friendly, checked in on customers and made the experience. Food was fresh, hot and tasty. Freestyle machines are also so much fun. New tenders were really crispy and well seasoned.

However I'm writing this comment primarily due to the manager on duty 7/5/25 being super great.“

“The food is delicious, the kids at the register are great, and of course whoever is doing all the cooking and preparation are fantastic. It can get very hectic and crowded and it can be really hard to find a parking place so you need to be prepared, or I'd just like to go at 11:30 or say 1:30.“

“My wife and I had a craving for burgers to go with chili on them. I ordered one regular burger Cook Out style and one regular burger tray with fries and onion rings. The fries and onion rings were good. The burgers were really good. The banana pudding shake was one of the most amazing desserts ever, which we shared nicely. The only reason that I gave the atmosphere a "4" is because it is tough waiting in the drive through lane smelling all the good food while waiting for my food to be made. Thanks Cook Out!“

“Went in to grab dinner & was amazed at how clean and organized this place is. It’s decorated beautifully for Halloween with a treat bowl by the registers. The staff was very nice, and detail oriented. My kids definitely loved going in.

“Super burger and great service!“

“My favorite place. Great food. Usually very fast service. Any issues usually handled with an apology and a smile. I am a customer for life.“

“Great food, quirky atmosphere, free live music“

“Food is great. Fresh burgers, service was under par on our visit. The order printout was correct but when the order came we were short. By the time you order a burger, fries and drink the cost is just under $20/ person. Can't beat the tastiness though.“
