45 Best Burger Restaurants near Holmdel

“GO! GO! GO! I heard these locations can be packed and to make sure you stay because it’s worth the wait. It definitely is worth the hype!

The second you walk in you’re greeted by friendly staff and a delicious smell of burgers in the air. Emily was amazing assisting with our first time visit, explaining the menu and options for sides, drinks and shakes, even bringing our food out to us.

A picture would be included but the food was gone in the blink of an eye, it’s that good. We enjoyed the Smokey Bacon Cheddar Stack (with tots) and the Freddy”s Original Double (with onion rings).

Tables, restrooms and restaurant are clean. Condiment and soda area clean and stocked. A large amount of sauces to try as well. Each booth section offers an outlet with USB port as well during your dining experience.

On the next trip we will definitely be back (and I’ll remember to take a few pictures LOL).

ON TO THE NEXT VENTURE! 🤘😎🤘“

“Not every Overeasy has the same thing or makes it the same way, case in point, Marlboro

Kid-friendliness: Kids are always welcome there

Wheelchair accessibility: Both Holmdel and Marlboro are wheelchair accessible“

“This location can get very busy as expected… but it’s not the employee’s fault. It’s the geniuses that decide to come here thinking they can sample or customize everything along with their 10 kids… that’s what holds the line up

Other than that it’s a solid ice cream spot! Props to the employees dealing with such JO’s“

“They catered a back yard bbq I was at and the food was absolutely delicious! Highly recommend!“

“Visited on a family vacation, asked the young ladies behind the counter what was fun to do around the area. They went above and beyond naming me places and their addresses to attend on my visit. There’s not much to do in the area, but they were a fun part to the journey. The food and atmosphere were so great, we visited again before leaving.“

“Today we decided to try this hidden gem today. The burgers, fries and onion rings are delicious! Everything is perfectly seasoned. This place is a must try! You won’t be disappointed!“

“Awesome Smash Burgers! Was super surprised on how good they were. Will definitely be going back for more.“

“Good food and clean atmosphere“

“So delicious! we ordered the gyros, fries, steak quesadilla and a cheese steak. everything was amazing. made special requests (no onions on this no sauce on that) every instruction was followed exactly and all items were clearly marked... definitely recommend“

“Excellent authentic Mexican food. Server was great and knowledgeable about gluten allergies as well. If you want great Mexican food definitely check this place out.“

“Ordered tonight got the chicken scampi it was amazing my brother got the chicken franchise amazing and my dad got a cheesesteak amazing definitely ordering again and definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“best ice cream in Freehold. Been coming here for 60 years“

“Placed a takeout order 2 weeks ago. Never got one of the items in the order. It was a big order for a group. I called asking if I would be able to get a refund for a missing item. It was a drive to get there so a hassle to go back. Person I spoke to over the phone said sure, I’ll receive the refund in 3-4 business days. It has since been 2 weeks, I have not received a refund for the item they forgot to pack. I reached out again, and they said they’ll just reach out to a service team. Didn’t take my order number or anything. I just gave them the date I placed my order. Will update my review as to how this issue progresses.

Edit: I reached out to them for the third time after receiving a comment from this review and they have offered me a full refund.“

“Wow, just wow. This isn't a quiet, laid back place, no.
This is a wild crazy, loud, circus atmosphere made for kids young and old! The menu is the 8th, 9th and 10th wonder of the world.

A must check this one out kind of place.“

“Just a damn good down home restaurant with good food good prices and good people .“

“Shake Shack is always on point but, I need to take a second and express how amazing this staff is. My Uber Eats driver brought me a shovel (yes a shovel) instead of my burger. I called to see what actually happened to the burger. That will remain a mystery however, the manager told me to come down and they’d make me fresh one. On top of being extremely pleasant and accommodating, they made a surprise one for my dog!! These guys are great and deserve to be applauded!“

“Sage was super helpful and made recommendations for new products. Everything was delicious and she was always checking on us to see if we needed more drinks or anything. She is the reason why we keep coming back. She is on top of her game. Thank you so much Sage for everything you do.“

“Great little burgers.
And great shakes.
Barbecue Char as a meal is as good as it gets. Even with the fries, I can still go back to work after one of those.
Amanda and Jamein are truly friendly and helpful.
I love that I can see The Cooks making my burger right there!
Lots of seating, inside and outside.

I love this place. Definitely worth stopping by anytime you are in the area!
San Francisco Burger Joint vibe at the Jersey Shore!
Have fun, tell them B sent you ;)“

“The best chili dogs we have found. Accommodating to my husband's crazy ideas and also the best party catering idea ever. Kid wanted hotdogs and chicken fingers for her graduation party and Joe put together the perfect package for us. thanks for everything!“

“Great burgers at a great price. Make sure you always look for the burger of the month. It always rotate monthly. Once you order, they bring the food to your table and clean up after you leave. They have 2 types of ketchup: regular and jalapenos. The small fry is very filling for me. I was debating between a regular and small and decided with the small.

Next time I want to try the milkshakes as everyone who ordered there got one and it looked delicious.“

“Great food for good price!! Has lots of groceries too. Definitely recommend to go this place!!“

“Good food, reasonably priced and the staff are friendly. Enjoyed lunch on Friday with some friends. Sharon was very welcoming and Francesca got all our orders just right! Thanks for a great experience.“

“OMG! The best bagels ever! Mustafa, the owner, was friendly and attentive. I had a bagel with poached eggs and avocado. Scrumptious! My husband's everything bagel with lox and cream cheese was generously piled with lox. The only thing that is disappointing is that we don't live here to make this our regular bagel spot. We'll be taking some home with us on the airplane, though!“

“breakfast, lunch, or dinner... they have the best sandwiches at the most reasonable prices around“

“Such a cute place, such a throwback, with excellent friendly service and great food! My burger and chili dog completely hit the spot and washing it down with their trademark rootbeer was such a treat! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Spicy chorizo & hot peppers ❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Came with friends to Portside to surprise my friend, Michael Cappetto, who was performing that night. Was never here before but I have to say the food was awesome, as was the entertainment! Michael is an amazing singer / guitarist and I highly suggest going to Portside to see him and have some fantastic food!“

“Shake Shack is great, the hamburgers & fries are delicious. My only complaint is the way the hamburgers are packaged, the paper they come in gets so soggy and sticks to the back of the sandwich getting stuck to the bun & cheese. Other than that minor note it’s a great place! Prices are also a bit high for the product.“

“1st time ordering from here. We tried the Cobb Salad to go. Owner ran out of Blue Cheese but asked if we wanted an alternate cheese. Was still delicious! Very fresh and tasty! Portion size was good. Owner was also very friendly. Even though Keansburg is desolate due to the season, this restaurant is still open and it's worth the trip to either eat in or order out from here. I recommend giving them a try if you haven't already.“

“We came here on a Friday night around 9:30pm. This location does not have a drive through, which I didnt realize at the time. I felt bad for coming in so late but my children were really hungry! The staff was sooooo welcoming and friendly. I apologized that we were there so close to closing and they were all so kind and encouraged us to enjoy our meal and take our time. Shout out to Tiffany for especially being so sweet!“

“So for food we decided to order the corn bread, Mac & Cheese, Burnt ends and brisket cheesesteak.

The corn bread was awesome. So fluffy and full of flavor.

The Mac and cheese was delicious. I found myself adding a piece of burnt ends along with it, and you couldn’t go wrong.

The burnt ends were the star of the show. Incredible flavor and were nice and tender.

The only somewhat disappointing item was the cheesesteak. It was good but not something I probably would order again.

Overall good time - wish they had more tables or space, but it’s a nice lil spot“

“Excellent family run small business. Mary and her crew are welcoming and friendly. Everything is fresh and made to order. The atmosphere is cozy and the food is consistently excellent. Do yourself a favor and stop by for a great meal!“

“Great cocktail bar… martinis… negronis… top shelf! Wine??? Meh… chintzy pour of just average wines…$14!for a 4 oince pour of a “ Super Tuscan” ? Steer clear… not worth it.
Food… tomato sauce is top shelf… but if you are featuring your sauce and you fill a dish surrounding 2 small pieces of eggplant( which was cooked perfectly BTW) you need to provide some BREAD for dipping… not everyone likes garlic bread ( at $10) avoid the “ wood fired” artichokes… they are “ canned” and nothing special at $14! The Short rib plate with butternut squash is amazing… a little on the sweet side… but something special for sure.
The Meatballs…. Ypu can make better at home small orbs of deep fried beef… very little flavor very crunchy…. Not a good choice!!! Food is a mixed bag… some good… some not so good… we will return for the cocktails…. Wine? No way!!! Meatballs??? Eat a tennis ball!! Artichokes??? Make them yourself at home! Music is WAY too loud…. Pretty pricey tab for 7’out of 10 food. Pizza was made with top shelf ingredients but bottom crust was “ flubbery” needed a few minutes in a hot pan. This place is among the best choices for cocktails in Sayreville… but needs work to be worth multiple“

“The steak quesadillas were absolutely delicious..I definitely enjoyed it and recommend!“

“this food was awesome! We will def be back again! Very Fresh food!!“

“To sit back and relaxing place“

“Food was good although my French toast was burnt. My husbands food was very good according to him. I would definitely return.“

“Where is Henny the DJ? No promotion. No drink specials. Lazy.“

“Got food from there for the first time yesterday, absolutely delicious!!“

“great burgers and loved their sweet potato fries“

“I ordered thru the drive-in. The food and service were outstanding. The service person was friendly and knowledgeable as she asked if I ordered thru the APP. I told her no and she provided me the pamphlet for getting the APP and using it in the future.“

“Great chow and always a clean table. I’m easy.“

“This is a locally owned, seasonally open, dairy queen. This site only offers ice cream, unlike larger restaurants. Greg, the owner, employs local kids and is a very friendly local business owner. Highly recommend dropping in and supporting local.“

“If you’re in the area this is the place to order your food. There’s also online option to order from. This has been my most satisfied Halal restaurant experience. Clean environment, spacious and nice restaurant design set up. I got chicken and lamb over rice with vegetables combo. It’s an explosion of remarkable taste. Customer service was excellent and their meal comes in good portion too - so you get more for the very affordable price.“
