50 Best Burger Restaurants near Lavallette

“The food, Service, and atmosphere were all excellent. The fresh brewed tea is spot on. The Firecracker sauce is Devine and you can't go wrong with the wedge salad. Not a bad thing I can say from my experience.“

“The fried calamari is the best!!!“

“The burgers I’ve ordered have always been made properly and always with very fresh ingredients. I will say that the beef is consistently too salty for my personal taste, but that’s easily remedied by requesting that they not season the beef. I don’t frequent this business often enough to remember. Even if I did, I’d probably forget 🤣“

“Always a good experience whenever I have the opportunity to stop in for a bite to eat. I can’t get enough of how delicious everything tastes. Thank you!“

“The best service and food.“

“Fantastic food and service! Highly recommend…“

“The cheesesteaks were delicious, but I wished I noticed the disgusting fan that was above the ordering counter before I ate there. The fan is full of so much thick dust that I felt sick after eating there. Makes you wonder if the kitchen is really clean.“

“everything's good lunch or dinner“

“We went today for opening day. We ordered burgers, chicken tenders and fries. We loved it all!! The chicken tenders were super juicy. My husband said the burger was great. The fries had a nice crunch. Everything was super good and can’t wait to go back!“

“My first time. Waitress was lovely, her name was Katlyn. There was plenty of food & reasonably priced, too. I will return. Thank you!“

“My family and I had a wonderful dinner last night at Barrier Island Burgers! The servers, chef and hostess were beyond gracious! Our burgers and Cobb salad were delicious! Can't wait to go back!“

“There are hundreds of places that make burgers these days and half of them are “Ehhhhh” at best. I tried “Burger 25” for the first time and MY GOD, they nailed it!! - Big burger (added the extra patty) the burger was very juicy, seasoned and very filling!!
Additionally, I ordered there cheese fries which I can honestly say were also “AMAZING”
Lastly, I love how I can basically build my own burger - (So many toppings / options available to chose from) - You now have a customer for life - Great Job Burger 25!!“

“Came here for a quick, Sunday homestyle breakfast and was not disappointed at all. The atmosphere is unique, to say the least, but also gives a lot to start conversations amongst the table. Serving portions were superb and food was very tasty. I have seen other comments and reviews that were very negative and nasty, but everybody can have a bad day once in a while. They were complaining on the service and owner/waiter being rude and yelling. I've seen more positive ratings than negative ones. While not everybody has the same humor, people can definitely be some Debbie downers. All in all, we had a nice experience and enjoyed the food. Ihop who?? Lol will def be back!!!“

“There used to be Roy Rogers restaurants on the NY state thruway. Would specifically stop at those rest stations to go to a Roy Rogers. Sadly, NY got rid of the Roy Rogers. I was down in Brick today, and this Roy Rogers was amazing! Food was fantastic. Just as good as I remember. Fries were salted to perfection. Burger was juicy. I wish Roy Rogers would make a comeback. Place really is the best fast food company. Tastes good, and very reasonably priced.“

“Today was my first tome ver coming in to Wavershak’s. The owner of as super friendly and the sweet. I got the corned beef sandwich special. It was fantastic! I’ll be back for sure.“

“I just wanted to reach out & thank your staff on duty from Friday 8/18 Especially Rod/Ron the Manager (my apologies I don't remember his name exactly) for outstanding customer service! We were at the restaurant Friday evening. It was the last night of our family Seaside Vacation and our first time dining at The Sawmill. We were seated promptly(young hostess with curly hair and an air cast), drinks & food orders were taken very quickly(female server with dark curly hair and an accent). Our beverages came out in a flash, and our appetizers were moments behind. When my teenage son reached across for some tasty pretzel bites...he knocked his full orange soda into his lap (and shirt) , onto the floor, & even onto me! We sent him to the restroom to try and clean himself up while we motioned for help, we didn't want anyone to slip on the wet floor! Within seconds your staff responded in the best possible way. Your manager was mopping up the floor, our server was bringing a replacement soda, one of the ladies bussing tables hustled over with towels. By the time my son returned from the restroom my husband and I were discussing how to proceed (Run back to the house to change or by new clothes on the boardwalk) when Rod/Ron appeared on bended knee next to my son with Sawmill t-shirts in tow asking his size so he could change his shirt. My son initially refused because; it was "all his fault & he didn't deserve it" but; Rod/Ron persisted and convinced my son that these kinds of things happen to everyone. A point I was just making to my child, when my son heard this he accepted. The way your staff responded in the moment took what could have been an awful end to our vacation into a very bright spot because of how attentive and supportive your staff was. It means more than you will ever know. Please take a moment & thank your staffers on our behalf. Thank you, Monica, Andy, & AJ Mossey“

“We were headed up to a baseball game and the 5 of us decided to stop there for lunch the food was excellent I got the double cheeseburger fries and the vanilla milkshake the bill was over a hundred dollars and of course we gave a tip and they brought our food out to us. The reason for the 3 stars for service was I am 78 years old and I had trouble with the computer ordering the food so the problem was me LOL the 4 stars for atmosphere it's a fast food place nothing fancy“

“We’ve been coming here for years but after Pat and Janessa took over it quickly became our favorite place. The new menu is great and everything we’ve had has been awesome. Jim, Mary and the rest of the staff do a great job behind the bar and the sight lines for your favorite sports makes Mac’s a great spot to unwind after a tough day at work. The white pie is off the charts for all you pizza lovers. Oh and the Irish Nachos are Back!!!“

“Writing a review for Red Robin restaurant:

The service at Red Robin usually depends on who is serving. I had excellent and unprofessional service. The food is always great and 90% of the time no wait.We like it so we keep going.

Here’s a polished, balanced version of your review:

I’ve had mixed experiences at Red Robin, and it really depends on who’s serving you. On some visits, the service has been excellent—attentive, friendly, and efficient. Other times, it has felt unprofessional and lacking in care.

That said, the food is consistently great, which keeps us coming back. Most of the time (about 90%), there’s little to no wait, which is a big plus.

Overall, while the service can be hit or miss, the quality of the food and convenience make it a place we continue to visit.“

“This evening we decided to return to the Mantoloking Road Alehouse. We loved the small ,tender, succulent mussels from last evening, so we decided we must have another order this time Fra Diablo. Abel did not disappoint. The dish was the absolute best. We also ordered the pizza that was superb! Kristen was our server this evening, and her bubble personality,plus her attention to detail was outstanding. Evan our server from last night recognized us and stopped at our table to thank us for returning. Kristen even send over the mgr.,Stephanie, the manager for the night to say hello to us. Even the hostess recognized us as returning customers from last evening. We can't say enough good things about the quality of the food to the outstanding, upbeat service. Put Mantoloking Road Alehouse on your "To Do List." You won't regret it. The Best!“

“Super yummy. Happy hour can’t be beat.“

“there burger are freaking good. and best french 🥖 fries“

“It can be a Great Experience depending on which Server you get. If you get the Rude one that treats you as if you are bothering them then you're Experience will Be Horrible! Be Careful the Rude Server will not even ask you if you need anything. No Refills! No Desserts! No Extra Tip😉“

“I remember this place being Simkos. But I was hungry and other places around I didn't feel like going to. Decided to stop here. It was quiet. Not sure why no one is here but I don't see anything wrong with this place. Maybe since I got here at an off hour between lunch and dinner. This is a positive review. Chicken sandwich I had was fantastic prices are normal. If youre reading this, come check it out!“

“It’s good food after a long day.“

“There was A Slight Mishap. We didn't bring it up but the manager John & Waitress Jess Noticed and brought it to our attention and Made It Right....It was a great experience, With Very Kind Staff/Waitress/Manager During A Crazy Busy Night....Much Gratitude“

“We have been going to HW in Manasquan for many many years, they never disappoint. I was in Robbinsville and thought why not have lunch at their new location there. I was very and thoroughly impressed. The ambiance is very cool and a great vibe. How they pulled off a mix cozy with a sports bar atmosphere is impressive. The service was great. Lila our server, was attentive and pleasant. The menu is deep but not too confusing. Steaks, Sandwiches, Seafood, they offer a wide variety for anyone taste. Our food was delicious. It's a hidden gem. I would recommend you get there and experience it for yourself before word gets out. Otherwise you will need reservations. Parking is abundant with reserved spaces for HW. Good stuff!“

“Sometimes you just get a craving for White Castle and nothing else will do!

I went through the drive-thru and had a good experience. Both employees I spoke with were genuinely so nice and friendly. It’s always refreshing when someone takes that extra second to be pleasant, they definitely made the experience better. The food was hot and fresh, the order was correct, and those little sliders hit the spot! 🍔

A big thank you to both of the employees who helped — your kindness and friendly attitudes didn’t go unnoticed and were very much appreciated! 😊“

“This is the arcade you wanna go to in Seaside Heights. The manager was great, the games are well priced and the prizes are actually winnable. Lots of different games and they constantly work together et broken games back up and running. Awesome arcade, hit this place up!“

“I’ve been coming to Little Mia’s for years, and I can honestly say it has never disappointed me. In a world where it’s hard to find restaurants that stay consistent, Little Mia’s continues to exceed my expectations every single visit.

The food is absolutely incredible. Every meal tastes like it was made from scratch with love and family recipes that have been passed down for generations. Whether I’m ordering one of my longtime favorites or trying something new, it’s always fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The portions are generous, and you can truly taste the care that goes into every dish.

What keeps me coming back, though, is more than just the amazing food—it’s the people. The staff treats you like you’re family from the moment you walk in. They remember faces, greet you with a smile, and always go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. That kind of genuine hospitality is hard to find these days, and it’s one of the many reasons Little Mia’s has become such a special place to me.

Walking into Little Mia’s feels like walking into your grandmother’s kitchen on a Sunday afternoon. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and filled with the comforting aromas of authentic home-cooked Italian food. It’s the kind of place where memories are made around the dinner table, and every meal feels like it was prepared with love.

If you’ve never been, you’re truly missing out. And if you’ve been once, you’ll understand why so many of us keep coming back. Little Mia’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a place that feels like home. Thank you to everyone there for years of incredible meals, exceptional service, and making every visit feel like you’re part of the family. Five stars simply aren’t enough.“

“Have always loved going here, mainly during lunch and dinner. The chicken is always amazing and the mashed potatoes are outstanding compared to other fast food places. Employees actually look like they enjoy working there (unlike McDonalds)“

“Great venue with seating outside right on the water - it can get chilly if windy, bring a sweater for the evening.

True Italian American restaurant. Large portions to share. Lots of garlic in most dishes. Not the most flavorful.

Good to try: swordfish - tasty, ratatouille less so; calamary not crispy but with a delicious sweet and spicy sauce.
The angry lobster is not as angry, the penne alla vodka are more of a creamy red sauce.

Very good service“

“Everything was great 👍🏽 and fresh and clean nice workers too“

“Food was delicious but the Buford burger shrank! It’s half the size it used to be. It’s almost like a jr. Cheeseburger. Was totally shocked on how small it was for the same price as it used to be. Half the size should be half the price.“

“Ive been craving fried chicken but I don’t eat meat. I’m so happy to have found tenderfix delivers to me! Morningstar incogmeato chick’n is sooo delicious prepared fried like this. And the waffle fries were seasoned and good too! Arrived still hot and crispy.

Vegetarian options: Chick’n tenders (morningstar)“

“What the hell was I thinking. Parked my car. To go to the steakhouse. On the way to the parking machine. Waiting on line at the machine. To pay for my parking.I looked back at my car . A meter made issues me a ticket. So I want back to my car and drove out of town . No sandwiches.“

“ok ice cream, but it's pricey for just a cone.“
