18 Best Burger Restaurants in Newark

“If you need a quick and satisfying meal near the gate, this spot is perfect.

I placed an order for pickup, and it arrived quickly — just in time before my flight started boarding.

The burger tasted exactly like other Shake Shack meals I’ve enjoyed — juicy, flavorful, and consistent. Prices are a little higher, which is expected at an airport, but the quality makes it worth it.

Overall, a reliable and tasty choice for a fast casual meal on the go.“

“Hi Lucy,

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate the amazing service you provided. You were kind, attentive, and truly made the experience better. Thank you for everything you did — you really went above and beyond.

And most of all, thank you, Jesus, for placing good people like you in our lives.

Blessings to you, Lucy! 🙏✨“

“My friends and I were attending an event at the NJ PAC. Not being familiar with the area, I researched places to eat nearby. We chose THE YARD because of the reviews we read. The experience was simply amazing. Every table was taken so we waited a few minutes and we were so glad that we did. We had been greeted by the owner and he quickly sat us when a table became available because I had expressed concerns about being on time for the performance. We each ordered a different meal and each of us raved about our selections all evening. I had the lamb burger and it was one of the best I have ever eaten: crispy with a lovely juicy interior. The each sauce was flavorful and the French Fries were the icing on the cake. We will be back and I would highly recommend THE YARD to everyone.“

“Great food and drinks! Very pretty inside.“

“They have great burgers, cooked well done and fresh; my favorite being the El Paso burger. And a good variety of shakes...coconut, cherry, mango, and caramel. The coconut one slaps different.🤤👍 It was great to see this spot replace the golden arches that was there before, big level up to that downtown Newark, NJ area.“

“Great food! Even better people!“

“This fried chicken is so good. I have made a commitment that this is the one and only place I'm eating fried chicken from. I hear it has been around a mighty long time and its always been good. I cant wait to come back to Newark for my Jersey Fried“

“Everything about it is perfect. The workers are extremely kind and quick, they welcome you like a family. The food is delicious with good portions and very reasonable prices. The atmosphere is top tier, never regret a single penny spent here“

“Great place in Newark for "pastel de feira". Esfihas are not so great but the kibes are delicious. Their croissants are the best though. The sweet ones are the Portuguese croissants and they are a big bigger than the salt croissants. Not that they are salty, but they are neutral and definitely not sweet. The regular croissant is the American croissant and they are smaller in size. Absolutely delicious! Fluffy, buttery, perfect texture that melts it when you eat them. I should be paid for this kind of review but I'm just an honest person who have been to Top Burger like a thousand times this year! Ha! True that. My name is Missy. Follow me for more tips!“

“AWESOME NICE PEOPLE A LOT VARIETY! ❤❤❤❤❤❤“

“Best sandwiches in the hood especially if you like breakfast . I recommend beef bacon egg cheese toasted butter and jelly if u want. And if it’s a sandwich that u came up with that’s not regular on the menu pop try make it. I seen someone order Italian beef bacon I never heard of that we just started eating chop cheese in Newark really“

“Craft your own... Just think a custom made sandwich made just for you 😍😎“

“Un excelente lugar y buena atención“

“Been coming here for a while now and the food has been amazing. The fried chicken is one of the best I’ve had in all of the east coast. They also just got BBQ Ribs and Oxtails. And they are heavenly, and full of flavors. Feels like im in a Jamaican/fried chicken cuisine. Best of both worlds.“

“Had an amazing experience at this location the cashier Curtis was very patient and understanding when we ordered the SpongeBob meals she let the kids take their time with ordering and made everyone smile and laugh. I will definitely be returning to this location thank you so much Curtis for your kind word and amazing customer service“

“Great taste clean place great service Recommended it“

“Would definitely recommend this place if you can tank the price (around $10 per burger, fries + drinks are separately charged).

The double classic & American burgers is 10/10. The patties are quite tender and sizable. The smash fries are also well seasoned, not overly salty or bland. Staff are super friendly & approachable :)“
