50 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“

“Cool electic vibes. Busy but cozy as well. I randomly was in the area and was looking for a quick latte before a meeting. This was 4 minutes away, really glad I went. Will go back again, I tried nootropic latte. It's got a cool clever twist with emphasis on neuro/ nootropic/ well being mixins.“

“Omg! These burgers are soooo flipping good! They take 2 days to eat, moderately priced and the taste of these burgers literally makes my mouth water every time I think about it! Finding a place that can properly cook impossible meat is hard to find but they nailed it! I got the impossible 30 burger and all I can say is OUT of this WORLD good! Please add this place to your list of places to go when visiting, you won’t be disappointed.“

“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.“

“I had such an amazing experience at Shake Shack thanks to Jack! He truly went above and beyond to make sure our order was perfect. He was incredibly patient, kind, attentive, and made us feel genuinely taken care of. Jack did everything he could to make our experience a great one, and his customer service really stood out. It’s employees like him who make you want to come back. Thank you, Jack, for turning our visit into such a positive experience! Shake Shack is lucky to have you! ❤🍔“

“I was told about Made Kitchen through my cousin in Georgia as this was something he saw on IG. So I had to check this out especially working so close by on Easton Ave. I visited Made Kitchen on 4/26 and again 4/27 and both times didn’t disappointed were super delicious. I got the King Caesar the first visit and Big Jerk Cheesesteak on the second visit. Both sandwiches are great in portions and I couldn’t finish it in one sitting. The King Caesar was fav for sure. That chicken was tasty and the lettuce was fresh. The Big Jerk was tasty as well. Jerk seasoning had the right of kick. So you can’t go wrong with either sandwich. I’ll probably get The Heavyweight or the Chopped Cheese next visit. TBD. But definitely hit this spot up if you in the area.“

“As a truck driver passing through New Jersey I came across Freddy’s off of US 1 and I had to do a review! The food was made fresh and it was delicious! I will be returning whenever I am passing through! I especially want to acknowledge the staff that was preparing and serving the food! Thank you so much for an impeccable experience! You all rocked!!!!!“

“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!“

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

“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 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!“

“This is by far my favorite burger place. Everything always tastes fresh and the quality is always good. You can tell they actually care about the food. Their milkshakes are so good too. My favorites are the Dubai Chocolate, S’mores, Cherry Blossom when they had it, and Cookies & Cream. Their crinkle-cut fries are really good too. I always end up coming back.“

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

“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.“

“The restaurant has a lovely, comfortable atmosphere. The food overall tastes fantastic. Their fried chicken and hamburgers are absolutely delicious and easily the highlights of my order.
The only tiny downside is the barbecue wings; they would be even better if they were juicier.
I am happy to give this place a full five-star rating. I will definitely come back again in the future.“

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

“Been going here for years with my family. Good food and friendly staff. I also belong to a Car Club and we go there on Friday nights during the car shows and Monday nights in the winter time. Allie is our Bartender. She's the best! 🍻
1/24/2026 Still going to Applebee's Friday night during the Car Show season and most Friday nights during the winter months. Alexa and Kait are our Top Notch Bartenders now 👍🍻. Allie left a while ago.
7/3/2026 Went to Applebee's tonight with my Car Buddies. The Car Show was canceled due to the extreme high temperatures. We had a good time eating at the Bar. Alexa and Meli were our Bartenders. Kait left for sunny Florida 🌞“

“Great food! Great service! Bella was our waitress for a party and she was great and so friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“We went to Ruby Tuesdays for a quick Friday dinner and was impressed. While the food and atmosphere was great, our server Christopher Roman was top tier! He was very responsive to our request and did everything with a smile. He had a playful yet professional demeanor that made dinner very enjoyable. He was well informed about menu items and... well overall great. Thanks Chris!“

“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“

“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!“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“Very good service. Had the Turkey burger with fries.“

“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!“

“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.“

“We came in from a long day, none of us were in a great mood, and we were all starving. I complimented an employees (Khadijah’s) nails and we had a great conversation. She was so funny and I could see how she lifted everyone’s mood before we were even eating. Amazing place, would recommend.“

“Yes, it was to meet my friends and have brunch. Everything was great but they do need to tell you that they need to mention any fruits that goes on your pancakes or the side that they come cold that is my only complaint you have to let them know that you would like your fruits warmed up“

“** 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 !“

“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!“

“You get more food for your money here,and food is delicious and Nicky the bartender was great“

“Best pizza in New Jersey! I’m honestly surprised Dave Portnoy hasn’t come to rate this place a 10. Their pizza is incredibly crispy, and the ingredients are simple but high quality. They’re always making different pies throughout the day, so there’s always something fresh and delicious coming out.

The customer service is impeccable. I’m not from New Jersey, but every time I walk in, they treat me like family. They also have a great lunch special—two slices of any kind. I usually go for the vodka cheese and a pepperoni slice, and it never disappoints. Oh, and you have to try the sugar-free cream soda—it’s so good!

100/10 would recommend!“
