We were so excited about Jerrell’s but found it to be lacking flavor. We wanted the loaded chili fries but they were out. We each ordered the OG Betr and agreed it was lacking in flavor. We ordered a chocolate milkshake and the employee kindly gave us an extra which we were so appreciative of because it was a 95 degree day when we were there. Milkshakes also needed more flavor - they almost tasted vanilla. Cool spot but needs improvement in terms of flavor.

Great late night spot after a night out

Great joint to grab a fresh burger - prices are decent

i was confused as to why a burger with one patty would be billed as a 'small' one. turns out it is laughably thin (not pictured) - maybe a 1/3 of the kind that's available in retail. but price for the small one is $9.50, so fair enough.
the burger itself was not impressive given that they specialize in it - it tasted like something I'd expect at a non-vegan place that offers an 'impossible'/'beyond' option. the fries were good.
the sitting space is very limited (4 tables) and all are located in a semi-enclosed veranda (?) that has little fresh air and gets pretty hot.
the wait time was surprisingly long, especially because it was not busy at all

Eaten a lot of vegan burgers in my time and these are hands down the best. Juicy, nice char , well seasoned, good bun. The oat milk shakes are great as well. Think you could “fool” someone here - they would not know it’s vegan. Thanks Jerrell!

Wir hatten noch nie einen so heißen Burger. Die Waffelpommes sind sehr gut der Burger solide. Es gibt vor Ort nur wenig Plätze welche auch nicht sehr schön sind. Wir haben es mit genommen und im Park gegessen.

I genuinely think this is the best vegan beef burger I’ve ever had. 100% recommend.
WOW! This place was suggested by the hotel staff and I’m glad I went. Never had a good veggie burger but this wasn’t good, it was GREAT! Moist and so flavorful. Make sure to keep your wrapper around your burger, it can get a little messy. Very generous portions. Order ahead as it does take time since everything is prepared fresh. Sorry, no photos of my burger as I was ravenous and could not put it down.

Found out about this place while meeting up with someone weeks ago, and today I decided to try it out. The food was awesome, and so was the host. I had the OG Burger, with some Waffle Fries, and special sauce, and I also got to try a sample of the vanilla ice cream. Hopefully the Mukbang video I made there was good enough to share, but I had a good experience, will recommend to others, and I will be back soon. Always great to find a new vegan spot, and dope that it’s black owned as well.
karis is cool
love the burgers. fries arent all that tho

Hands down one of the best vegan burgers I’ve ever had. I went with the double patty and it did not disappoint—juicy, flavorful, and totally satisfying. The fries were crisp and seasoned to perfection.
But what really stood out? The amazing service. Everyone was super friendly, and they even surprised us with ice cream! That kind of generosity and vibe really sets a place apart.
If you’re in NYC and craving a next-level burger experience—plant-based or not—Jerrell’s BETR BRGR is a must.

One of my favorite vegan fast food places in the entire city. They have a very tight, small menu, but everything is absolutely worth it. So satisfying, and a much healthier option, even if you're not vegan.
Really tasty and good vegan burger
