47 Best Burger Restaurants near Highland Park

“Was impressed with the decor, service and food. The BBQ burger was cooked perfectly! Made with fresh meat (not frozen formed patty) - not sure whst the English would be but I know it in Yiddish as “hockfleish.” The BBQ sauce added to the taste of the meat without being overpowering and the onion, pickle, lettuce and the challah bun were all extremely fresh. Looking forward to coming back snd trying the other choices!“

“First time back since 1973! Even better than I remember it. California cheese burger, fries and a soda. Served up in about 3 or 4 minutes, hot and fresh. I will not wait another 50 years to go back! LOL“

“Oh, this is one of my most favorite places for a cheeseburger. To be honest, the don't look like much, but they taste so amazing. The French fries are also really good - I like to get them well done so they are crispy.

There is a Barnes and Nobel across the street. Behind White Diamond is Tarantella's, which always gets great reviews, so come and make a day of it!

Parking: Limited number of spots, bit usually enough.

Kid-friendliness: Only a few booths, but usually enough. Very kid-friendly food.“

“Hood food and a great staff! Located in what is about to become a very impressive town village

Kid-friendliness: More than welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: They have an ADA Compliant sidewalk and entrance“

“I stopped by Stewart’s recently, and wow what an experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with friendly smiles and that classic, welcoming atmosphere. The menu had everything I could hope for, from delicious burgers to perfectly crispy fries, and don’t even get me started on their shakes they’re thick, creamy, and absolutely delicious! You can tell the ingredients are fresh, and each item feels like it’s made with care.

The service was quick, but nothing felt rushed, which I loved. It’s clear that Stewart’s isn’t just about fast food; they’re about good food and good vibes. Perfect for families, groups of friends, or anyone craving a quality meal without breaking the bank. I can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!“

“Shake Shack is one of the best fast food chain restaurants there is. From the excelllent options, Smokehouse burger is a favorite, along with chicken bites. My husband had a birthday last month, and he missed the free shake promo. Theresa, the manager, was very accommodating and presented John with a ‘free shake’. That was stellar! It’s a great shake!“

“1st time trying Freddy's since it opened in the area. A little hesitant at first because I was afraid it was going to be Shake Shack expensive since they are right across the street, but was pleasantly surprised to find the prices way more reasonable. Thank McDonald's value meal prices, but much better burgers. Kids had tenders which they loved with the thin shoe string fries. Wife and I had the California style double combo and was a great burger. Definitely worth the cost. Wife also had the tots which she said were even better than Sonic tots and I had to agree. Kids also had the Oreo double trouble custard/shake and said it was delicious. Definitely be back for more.“

“wow..Great pleasure to spend time here..I strongly recommend this place..Food was very delicious..atmosphere was phenomenal...Home like taste with generous serving...“

“Edited (typo on price in original) and adjusting now that I've had time to think objectively...

I’ve always loved this place and supported since it opened. I’m a little disappointed with an order for my family- 1 classic heavyweight and 2 classic lightweights. They seemed to have shrunk the lightweight, to half the size of the heavyweight (used to seem more like a 10” for LW vs 12” for HW)… I could be wrong as I usually get the Heavyweight for myself, but others mentioned it seemed smaller.

Regardless, the bigger issue to me is the lightweight is $9 on the menu and heavyweight is $16 (I incorrectly put $14 in original post), while the lightweights we received are barely smaller than half of the heavyweight. The HW is on top and LW on bottom in the picture I attached. Since the lightweight is half the size, then people shouldn’t be charged extra and the price should be half. Otherwise, people paying $2 more for two lightweights will feel cheated. Granted it’s only $2, but the price after add-ons and tax is already premium. Bottom line the quality of food here is great, but the point is I could have ordered two heavyweights and paid less. I will be sharing with family/friends to avoid this from happening to them… order heavyweights and share to not be over-charged when ordering lightweights“

“I really love the food and the way they care for customers . You definitely can tell that they are passionate about their food. Would definitely go back for more !!“

“Shakeshacks great and good quality especially if youre avoiding processed junky foods its one of few options. Kfried chicken sandwich is just ok wouldnt recommend it, the kshack bbq burger is much better the crispy onions and sauce are good. Smokeshack is still my favorite with the cherry peppers. like their fries with the honey mustard“

“Amazing service, food, and atmosphere! Dining at Pink Pistachio Cafe was such a beautiful experience. Mariam was very attentive and helpful. For drinks ordered the mango mojito and pink matcha lattes. For lunch we enjoyed the fresh chipotle chicken sandwhiches. Cannot wait to come back again and order afternoon tea and desserts.“

“First time trying The Halal Spot and we loved it! The food was super tasty, fresh, and full of flavor. The staff were friendly and made us feel really welcome. The place is clean and has a nice vibe too.
Definitely coming back - highly recommend“

“My husband and I came here after a trip to Costco and couldn't be more impressed! The restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly. The food is fresh, authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced. I had the tostsadas with chicken and my husband the bandeja paisa. Highly recommend!“

“The food is good. very happy with service. chicken was delicious. plenty of parking at night“

“Costumers and manager very rude. White big dude was making problems with workers and disrupted my time there. I couldn't enjoy food after that I felt really sorry for the young girls working besides that food was 6/10 and probably would go again“

“I tried it for the first time today, and it was excellent. I got the extra spicy BBQ wings and the brisket with mac and cheese and candied yams. The wings had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, the brisket was super juicy, and the sides were perfectly done. I ordered takeout and, even after an 8-minute drive home, everything was still piping hot. I’ll definitely be back and hope they don’t change a thing.“

“Thank you for making the BEST cake!! I came in a few hours before graduation and asked to decorate the cake on each side. The woman who decorated the cake did an amazing job!“

“I’ve been coming here since with my father since I was a kid, this place over the years has gotten so much better, and the service here has always been amazing. The hosts are very kind and make sure we don’t wait too long til we get sat, the sever was great and I believe his name was Carlos. Phenomenal service and made sure our food and drinks came out as soon as possible. Drinks were great, food was delicious and it was cooked to my exact liking. I would definitely come again with friends and come back to Carlos as my server.“

“Perfect for kids, Plus the food is great!!“

“Hotdog was very good, got the original Texas weiner. Place was very busy with only 1 server. She was trying her best but was overwhelmed. Atmosphere was loud and crowded. Well worth the trip for the weiner!!

Parking: Free street parking“

“Great food ! Great service! Great music!“

“Best in Metuchen! Go! Now! You will not be sorry! Great meal, great service and of course you get to visit with the owner, Dario Barone. Nothing better.“

“Amazingly delicious food with beautiful presentation and top notch quality and quantity! Love the environment, attentive/knowledgable staff, wait is beyond worth the food! Second time having lunch there with Addy personally coming around to make sure all customers were satisfied!“

“I told the owner if he gave me extra sauce, I would leave a better review. Without the sauces, this is one of the best Arthur Treacher’s Fish and Chip’s I’ve had in many years. Clean, Fresh and cooked to order! I definitely recommend this place and hope the quality and service doesn’t change. The only thing I would ask for is a bigger serving of COLE SLAW!“

“Great place for Gyro sandwiches and platters.The food is simply delicious !!! 😊“

“Stopped by Woodbridge mall today with my girlfriend and decided to stop in to Applebees for lunch. Our server Q was awesome. Fast, energetic, and got everything we needed fast. If you’re at the mall or in nearby vicinities stop in. Food was good and atmosphere was enjoyable.“

“We needed a place to get together after a game with a lot of people. The Colonial didn’t hesitate when I said 20 people. We came and they sat us in the back so we could all be together. Phil and Pedro were an amazing team. They organized our checks by family and all of our food came out hot, fast and delicious. So very thankful for this option in the area!“

“I have been here a total of 3 times in the last month & they have messed up my order every time… either the wrong order completely or missing items… add that to the usual lunch hour wait & yes… they need to improve the customer experience..“

“Food was tasty and well presented, staff was friendly and helpful. Lots of options for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The fresh squeezed orange juice was delicious. We'll definitely be back.“

“** Stopped in today while I was out running errands to pick up a slice of their delicious Sicilian to go. I have to say it's the first time that I'm disappointed. An elderly man was pulling the slice with his bare hands onto a plate to put in a bag and then took my cash and gave me change and bills back. I wish he would have worn gloves if he's going to be touching money and then touching the pizza I'm going to be eating.**
Everything is delish from the drinks, appetizers, dinners, desserts! The best bloody mary's, clams casino, appetizer and the prime rib entree melts like butter, the mashed potatoes and gravy are amazing, and I usually don't like mashed. The tortoni dessert is delish, and the cappuccino too ! And if you want pizza, I suggest the Sicilian slice it's great !“
