50 Best Burger Restaurants near Middle Island

“This place has really good food!! I'm really picky too, it was so friggin good. They had a deal going where you choose your foods and they make you a platter/dish of food that I could not finish in one sitting, neither could my unc lol it was a lot of good food..did I mention it was only $7 a plate?! Usually $10, which is still totally worth it. I also tried their fries, OMG they're like Checkers Rallys fries but thicker!! So delicious and fresh!! All the food was fresh and the restaurant was immaculate. I will be going back here to eat. Hey, if you live near there...you're foolish to not eat there. I gave them 5⭐“

“Good, reliable food! Speedy drive-thru.“

“I just had the best burger and fries in my life. Great food and friendly staff. A +++++“

“Wanted to give a huge shout out to the Tap Room (Patchogue) (specifically the Patchogue location). We were invited to a family party, buffet-style. I reached out to the restaurant via email, because I wanted to make sure they could accommodate my daughters food allergies -- eggs, soy, sunflower seeds, tree nuts and peanuts, or I would plan ahead and pack snacks she could safely eat instead. The Culinary Director, Joseph Walsh, called me the next day. He spoke to me for awhile, went over her food allergies, made some suggestions, and assured me that he would come up with something she could safely eat. The morning of the party, he sent me an email to confirm we were coming and his suggestions for a safe meal (rice and beans sauteed with bell peppers, chicken cutlet w/ no egg, and a mixed fruit salad). I emailed him back that just rice and beans and the fruit salad would be fine, because she doesn't eat chicken. He emailed me back, concerned that rice and beans and a fruit salad wouldn't be enough, but I assured him it would be fine because she's only 7 and has anxiety over trying new foods at restaurants (understandably), so sticking with rice and beans and fruit salad, which she's comfortable with, would be perfect. At the event, Joseph told my relative that he wanted to talk to us, and when we arrived, he came to introduce himself, told me that he was making sure everything was prepared separately and would be ready for her shortly. Absolutely fantastic service. We truly, truly appreciated all his care and effort, because that's sadly not the norm most of the time when we try to eat out. Thank you Joseph at the Tap Room in Patchogue!“

“Food is fresh and delicious! Prices are fair The only suggestion I can make is that the Mount Sinai location’s dining area is loud. Carpet or curtains might help lessen this issue Even so, the food and service is excellent and I highly recommend it!“

“Delicious breakfast, I really enjoyed it.“

“Awesome burgers 🍔 the staff was wonderful and super helpful explaining the menu and their recommendations! We are burger snobs and this is top 5! Can’t wait to go back!!!“

“Great service great food reasonable price“

“Had the pleasure of choosing Tara Inn for lunch today, every establishment can learn a lesson from the customer service that my friend and I experienced. Upon walking in we were greeted by Peter, Tara’s husband and son-in-law of the founder who named the bar for his daughter 47 years ago. We told him it was our first visit and he offered us seats and welcomed us. The regulars at the bar guided us through the menu and we each had a burger with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles for $1 per burger expecting very small burgers we were surprised to find them standard sized and deliciously prepared to medium. My friend had the fried shrimp and I had a $13 steamed lobster! Excellent! They offer daily specials and one of the gentleman at the bar told me their steaks are very good. Every staff person went out of their way to make us feel at home. A charismatic women came out from the back and introduced herself as Tara she thanked us for choosing to lunch there. Why can’t other places realize the importance of making a first time patron feel welcome. I
Had a great afternoon enjoying the excellent variety of beers that they provide on tap. The charming decor has probably changed little since the ‘70s and that adds to the vibe. If you want to go to the friendliest bar on Long Island, head over to Tara Inn.“

“Everything! Spiro is such a nice guy. I live in Florida now and I sure miss Moriches Bay Diner! The make the BEST Goulash 😋“

“Dined in, or outside actually. It nicely set up out back with some yard games and a big screen. Food was better than the usual fast food genre. Fries,wings and burgers were all fresh.Extra points for getting our order correct, would come back if in the area.“

“The best breakfast and price I have found in suffolk county!!!!!“

“Food was great. Kind of disappointed that I wasn't offered a refill to go when I asked for a to go box for my food. Guess the waitress was super busy.“

“I went to this location with my family. The food was good my husband had the steak and it was cooked perfectally. Ihad the ribs they were delish. Our waitress Anna was so sweet respectful, professional and responsive. The staff all seemed to be having a good time. The atmosphere was upbeat. Thanks Anna for being so kind to my grandaughter! And thanks for all the crayons!!!“

“Second time here for lunch. Food was excellent. Very generous portions. Enjoyed Rueben sandwiches with a side salad, onion rings, pickle and delicious coleslaw. The onion rings were crispy. We really enjoyed them as well as the rest of our meal. Our server was also excellent. Friendly and attentive. Will definitely return.“

“doble wooper!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍔🍔🍔🍟🍟🍟😋😋😋“

“Amazing cocktails at the bar- thank you Brittany!“

“This place just does it right! We keep stopping in and diving deeper into the menu and trying different things, we love all of them. Our 11 month old was with us this weekend and our server was awesome with him as well. Five stars for the food, the staff, the menu, the beer choices, and the local watering hole type of vibe the whole atmosphere has!“

“Let the outdoor dining begin @ the Harbor Crab! Delicious Mussels Fra Diavolo and Twin lobster tails. I hade the Watermelon Margarita definitely give it a try loved it perfect for this Sunny Sunday 😎☀️“

“My friends and I really enjoyed our delicious meals at this gem of a restaurant. Service was excellent. The Korean fried cauliflower appetizer is wonderful! The filet mignon was top-notch. The bowties with seafood special was outrageous! Desserts were absolutely fantastic. We will be back!“

“Hands down this is the best spainish food on Long Island possibly even the entire state of New York!

I recently tried them for the first time thanks to the too good to go app and I am so grateful they did! The first time I had a beef dinner and a fried chicken dinner. The way they chop the beef and add different seasonings to it is what separates them from the rest.

I'm 49 and back in the day 5th Ave in Bayshore had all the good Spanish food but after 911 they all moved to Florida causing me to go to another place in Brentwood I don't wanna say their name cause it's all about Beuno Deli right now.

When I heard the name deli and was going there for dinner for the first time I was skeptical cause of the word deli, most people dont think about a deli when they want dinner I think you guys should change your name because the food you serve and the times you operate is definitely not like a deli. You guys downgrade your business by calling it that you are a restaurant and a very good one at that.

Whoever is in charge of making the recipes and cooking the food must have a culinary arts background cause those are chef dishes and not your typical generic plates you see in every other place. In other words you're not just getting rice and beans you are getting dishes that come with brilliant recipes not only that taste good but the way its preped and served makes it top notch!

There's a reason I drive all the way from Islip to Coram and I do it with excitement cause I know whatever I'm getting I know it's gonna be the best, other places don't even come close. To be honest I can never go to my local Spanish deli cause Beuno deli opened me up to a new world of taste that I didn't even knew existed.

The first time I went there I was blown away because when you pull up, the entire front of the store is covered with their different menu items you can get anything from a entire Lobster dinner down to your typical Arroz con Pollo and they close late like around 11pm what deli do you know that operates like this?

Keep up the great work hopefully you guys can open a Buenos Deli 3 here in the Islip area you'd guys would have people lined up all the way to 5th Ave in Bayshore lol“

“The food and the service are always well above average“

“I got lunch there today and loved it!“

“The manager today was super friendly, food was good, loved the soda choices!“

“My first time here. For my cousins 40th!! The staff was amazing. The manager Carlos was on top of everything. The server (not sure her name) was amazing !! Rich the owner was hands on helping out. Great atmosphere. I’ve worked in the Industry my whole life.i Will def be back. Food was great too!!! Lots of TVs for sports. Great Job Rich and staff!!“

“This Applebee’s is probably the nicest one I’ve ever been to!
Went as a large group for lunch, and didn’t call ahead (apologies wasn’t my idea!) but they were very accommodating and everything still came out fast.
The food was very good, and as I mentioned did not take long from order time to table. Portion sizes are also very large for the price! Looking at $10-$20 per person without drinks. (Average for our group was about $15 before drinks)
The waitress was very nice, and spent an appropriate amount of time checking on our table to refill drinks and see if we needed anything. Never felt like I had to ask for anything, and also served everyone a water which I always think is a nice touch.
Overall, great spot to grab lunch. The deals they have during the week also make it a great spot to go during a lunch break. Super sad I’m visiting as I’d love to come here again.“

“You have a man work on Phil work there I only come because him he is so friendly one smile like him and said thank come in god bless him.i tell all my friends to come see him.no one like this beautiful young man.out all the Burger King my son is is a Vice President or bank I tell him come go to met this beautiful young man we love you Phil god bless you Ms Betty.“

“Great service. The manager was around the whole time to make sure everything was great. This is the first applebees that I can absolutely give it 5 stars. The food is always great and the service amazing. This location is always clean. I wish all applebees were like this one.“

“everything! my son would say French Fry's and chicken Fry's. He absolutely loves them.“

“Old fashionedOrdered the Bacon Old Fashioned.Knob Creek is the house Bourbon for thisThe brown sugar 'simple syrup' is a very prominent, forward, taste in this drink. Next time I would ask for different simple syrup, if they had it. It was just a tad bit too sweet for my liking. If you like" sweet, sweet", this is for you!Liked the oversized square ice cube..Does the job of keeping the Old Fashioned very,very cold..$14 is a good price for an Old Fashioned, these days.The burgerI didn't bother to count the amount of burgers on the menu( pictured), but there are a lot...I got the plainest one possible, as usual..The first one came out raw, and they cheeringlying, and apologieticly, brought me another one. They couldnt be nicer about it!!!.. I dont mind a tad under medium rare, but raw doesn't cut it for me ..It was good..You could tell they make it, in house.. It was a nice meat blendI got the pretzel roll as a choice of that, brioche, and sesame...meh..I'm starting to really dislike rolls..It added nothing to the burger. Maybe if they toasted it?Brie cheese is a new one for me..It was okay, and I liked it..I order the Garlic fries, as fries do not come with the burger...$6.50 for a very large order of fries.In the end, it was a good burger..$15Not in the Top Tier, by any stretch of the imagination, but a completely respectful burger.. Maybe top 25The 1st server, who took my order, and took the burger back to the kitchen, could not have been nicer! The second server, bartender, Natalie was very engaging, prompt, polite, professional, and humorous.Parking can get hinky in the Port...Sometimes it easy, other times, you wonder why you went there?..I was there at noon, on a Sunday, so it was easy“

“burgers can't be beat 💯🍔🥓“

“They have quite an array of sandwiches, burgers, and burritos and every one of them is delicious!! Their salads are excellent as well !“

“😀Great Burgers!!!!!! I'll be back!!“

“great place to eat came and enjoy with ur family“

“Wonderful place. Very clean and tasty. Always perfect never an error“

“I don't eat fast food a lot, but the Burger King on Medford Ave in Patchogue is one of the few places I enjoy. The food is exactly what one would expect from such a franchise; not much to report there that people don't already know. What sets this restaurant apart is the team and the atmosphere. From the counterstaff to the manager, I am greeted with eagerness and a smile. And not one of those fake corporate smiles; they genuinely make me feel welcome. The service is fast and attentive to detail. The facility itself is also clean, and has comfortable seating with wifi and private nooks that make it a great place to sit down with my laptop to get some work done. My business, Vision Martial Arts, is just a few buildings down, and while I love it there, a quick change of scenery and a bite to nosh on is sometimes needed to get the entrepreneurial juices flowing. Glad we're neighbors!“

“Visiting Hurricane's Bar and Grill in Port Jefferson was an absolute delight! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere. The menu boasts a fantastic array of delicious dishes, from juicy burgers to mouthwatering seafood options, all prepared to perfection. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. The cozy ambiance, combined with live music on select nights, added to the overall charm of this gem. We were blown away by the talented musician who entertained us throughout the evening, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to our dining experience. Whether you're looking for a casual dinner with friends or a lively night out, Hurricane's Bar and Grill is definitely the place to be in Port Jefferson. Highly recommended!“

“Amazing drinks music is awesome vibe is so great“

“The food is Outstanding! The Staff are Friendly and the restaurant is very accessible!“

“Came here on a Thursday night close to 10pm. Nothing to complain about, the drive through was moving quickly, the staff was friendly enough, and the food was as expected. Wendy's locations will tend to forget my ranch sauce whenever I order chicken nuggets but I'm happy to report that I received two cups of ranch to accommodate my spicy nuggets at this location so I'm grateful for that. Only thing is that they almost forgot my frosty so it's a good thing we noticed before we pulled away from the restaurant. This type of stuff happens all the time but friendly reminder to check your food before leaving the premises to ensure you have everything you paid for since mistakes happen.“

“it's worth the extra few minutes to go here because the McDonald's in Mastic is horrible bad service and always get the order wrong.. never any issues in Moriches“

“I wish I could give it a full five stars but they tend to do worse when ordering delivery. In person, they're great. Delicious, fresh, hot, full five stars. Delivery brings it down to four stars, sadly. Somethings always missing, unfortunately. Like, I've ordered a coffee with meals via delivery and over the course of a dozen deliveries it's been missing every time.“

“I am beyond impressed with the owners of this establishment and how they take such good care of their staff. These sisters go above and beyond to cater to all types of neurodiversity's. The restaurant is incredibly clean, the staff are so hard-working and dedicated. Extremely impressed. I highly recommend this location for a great place to work and a great place to eat. Five stars“

“First time going. There was four of us. We all agree the drinks and service were excellent. All of the sandwiches were okay. They all could have used more cheese. They were only able to cook medium and more so those of us who prefer rare meat are out of luck. Two for one price on the drinks was great. We tried the Skrewball milkshake for dessert not realizing it was $13. A bit pricy. Overall it was a good experience. It was unusual that we were the only customers there on a Friday night from 5:30 to after 7. There were a couple of takeouts.“

“Enjoyed sitting in IHOP for my food. Quick and efficient, waitress seemed overwhelmed but had no issues with my order. Do not go on the weekend; or go very late at night to beat the rush

“Literally just left the place, had a casual retirement party and we all had fun. HH food was great and the staff were kind and accommodating. Thank you for a nice evening.“

“The staff here is phenomenal! I don’t eat fast food much but I will come here just for the kindness. I will stay for the warmth they all gave me this evening! It’s hard to find a place you can feel safe. I’m glad that I did. Thank you 😊 from the bottom of my heart! Well Done!“
