50 Best Burger Restaurants near Oakdale

“I love the salad, Tommy loves the # 10 (nuggets and fries) my husband likes it all!“

“My mother has been going through cancer treatments for months. Most days she can’t even leave the house from exhaustion . She went to the grocery store this morning and when she left she was so exhausted she decided to go to McDonald’s for a hamburger and sit there for a while before heading home. When she got to the front door she saw people leaving saying the inside is closed only the drive through is opened. She of course went to make sure this was true. As she opened the door the cashier said sorry only the drive thru is opened but she looked up and saw my mom ( you can tell by looking at my mom she is sick) and said “oh honey, come in what would you like?’ My mom said just a hamburger and a small French fries. She told my mom to go sit down she would bring it to her and said that it was on the house. My mom thanked her but said she would pay. The cashier said absolutely not. . Your meal is on us today. She said , now you go sit and I’ll bring it out. They even came over and cleaned up her mess when she was done. My mom said they treated her like a queen. Thank you so much McDonald’s in Oakdale NY for doing this.“

“First time there tonight. We got the Third Rail chicken sandwich, a double cheeseburger, and tater tots. Delicious!!!!! Price is great and so is the food! We will definitely be back!“

“Had a double smash with fries. 100 percent recommended. this place is awesome.“

“We love Cosmos! Their food is great, ice cream is amazing and the staff are all so nice! We’ve even had a birthday party there and the kids had such a good time. :)“

“Michelle Randazzo was amazing. She made the perfect recommendation. Will be back to see her especially.“

“Holy smokes…literally! Dare I say the best BBQ I’ve ever had in New York? I’ve had ridiculous BBQ all over the country. This brisket is LEGIT!!! Maybe a top 2 or top 3 brisket I ever had. Passed the tug test with flying colors! If I had to nitpick anything it would only be a slight lack of a smoke ring? But the smoky flavor was definitely there and juicy AF! The ownership is amazing and super friendly! Your life will only be better after eating here. Y’all need this BBQ like now! Do it 🤌🏻👊🏻“

“Amazing food and service ! So glad I finally tried it . Took my family there for New Year’s Eve. It was perfect. Looking forward to going back.“

“excelente calidad, buen servicio, entrega rápida“

“Love this place!!! Decorated beyond for every holiday, great food and excellent service. My daughter’s compliments to the chef!!!! 🌹💞💌“

“Love Millie’s more than most places! The crusha is a fantastic burger, the bacon jam makes it top notch! I get a side of the bacon jam just to dip my fries in! On top of it Michelle and Jay provide great customer service and the atmosphere is always lovely! A nice old school vibe for a great meal!“

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

“Been here 2 times for lunch. I work right next door. Each time the service was very friendly, efficient and fast. I got a burger with Swiss, blue cheese. Their burgers 🍔 😋 are fabulous 👌!! They're not those kind that you have to try to open your mouth unreasonably WIDE to try to eat it. Got a side of sweet potato fries with their delicious maple mayo sauce. Only downfall is, whe you get them to go, they get soggy. I'd love to eat in one day. It's such a fun, lighthearted atmosphere filled with good music 🎶. Definitely a hidden gem in Bay Shore!!!“

“We are from Illinois and came here to watch the bears game. Food was good. Service was awesome. Waitress and bartender were totally awesome. I believe there names were Lauren and shalean ?“

“My boyfriend and I have been frequenting Karver's Grille for the past few years. We have been fortunate enough to get to know two particular servers, Brandon and Alex. They both go out of their way to make sure our dining experience is excellent. From keeping up with my boyfriend's diet coke habit to giving us bread without asking with our french onion soup. These days, it's hard to find a restaurant where servers take the time to get know regulars. We truly appreciate them always providing amazing service.“

“burgers can't be beat 💯🍔🥓“

“We tried the Classic Smashed Burger Tacos and the Mac Attack Burger at Burgerology — everything was seriously impressive. The sauces were perfectly balanced, the mac & cheese was incredible, and the burger tacos were absolutely amazing. Prices were very reasonable for the quality, the owner was extremely welcoming and attentive, and the staff were all super friendly. Definitely recommend this spot if you’re around Stony Brook.“

“There are diners and there is Peter Pan in Bay Shore at a level of great heights. My wife and I patiently waited for its reopening and our expectations were above and beyond what we expected. The decor is modern and beautiful, yet it has that warm at-home feel. The Menu consists of a variation of eclectic items that greatly touches the culinary senses with delight. Owners Nick and Peter are often present to greet the customers like old friends and the staff are very friendly, professional and thorough. From breakfast to lunch and dinner we have always enjoyed. And to boot, there is wide variety of beverages to meet all tastes.
Thank you for being a part of of our lives, Peter Pan. Looking forward to partaking in your delicious meals for years to come!“

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

“I absolutely love this Cafe! The food is ALWAYS fresh and very hearty. Everything I have gotten so far has been absolutely delicious. This is my go to place for lunch during the work week because they are very health conscience and reasonably priced. I particularly like ordering online where I can add or delete any of the ingredients to my liking. They have a huge selection of food so there is something for everyone. They have a Breakfast and Lunch menu that includes Omelets and platters of all kinds for breakfast, burgers, salads, wraps, paninis, soups, quesadillas, regular & fish tacos and vegetarian wraps and much more. You can even eat your lunch on an outside patio area. 10 out of 10.“

“Been eating at Applebee's all over Long Island for over 20 years. Definitely feels nostalgic eating here again, but I never felt compelled to leave a review until now.

Food is always amazing, definitely hits the spot. Late night half-off-apps, but we wanted to try some of their new items.

At the top, their new Bacon Cheeseburger Wonton Tacos were fantastic! I hope they stay on the menu.

Always wanted to try the O-M-Cheese Burger, and apparently all their burgers are cooked on a flat top. I prefer that vs grill, and the sizzling cheese plate definitely is a nice touch. Delicious!

Boneless wings are always good, a nice dependable standard. Love the Garlic Parm.

My all-time favorite, the Chicken Quesadilla. Still tastes the same as I remember as a teen.

Definitely don't skip this location, was super clean, food was great, and service was stellar. Big shoutout to Alex who exhibited excellent customer service the entire time. Management seems really tight there, will definitely come back.“

“Simply put, great!! High quality and taste too.“

“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!“

“Nice spot. Quaint, good food, lovely staff… attended some great Sayville reunions here…. Really really wish you were open for lunch.“

“Best burger I had in s long long time. Thank you service was great too“

“I've been going to the sammy's since it started out as a cart in jackson heights so imagine how happy i was when i realized they opened up a storefront in smithtown!!! a little piece of home <3 my husband & i love the food at sammy's. we always get the mix bowl and we think the proportions are great & keeps us more than satisfied. their samosas and paratha rolls are yummy too. definitely will be back!“

“The burgers are to die for!“

“Great customer service and great onion rings“

“Very nice people and good food.“

“We always had a enjoy ihop in Vernon hill last time we went the waitress name Ramon was very attentive and respectful with taking our order absolutely recommended“

“Delicious breakfast, I really enjoyed it.“

“Love the place Love the food Love the service Love it Love it 🥰“

“I did a take out order at the East Islip location. The food was good but the super melts do not seem to have much meat on them like they use to. If the prices are going up with less portions that’s going to be a problem for Friendly’s. I would hate to see them go out of business because I love Friendlys too!!“

“good burger. clean. friendly. nobody annoyed me. that's a miracle“

“Food was great and our waitress Chloe was wonderful“

“Excellent service, very friendly,delicious food. My spot is in Staten Island ny, new Dorp location.“

“So nice inside and the food is great!! it's about 10-ish bucks for a salad, and it's so worth it. I've gotten salads from the Pop salad section and i just tried a quesadilla with steak (omg soooo good, the steak is soft and juicy and seasoned just right). the salad is always fresh and tasty and the portions are big!! My quesadilla meal was about 13.50 without the drink but i have leftovers and I always have half a salad left so it's like 2 meals for 10-15 dollars...so worth it. The people that prep the food in the back are so nice too. Idk where they found these employees but they are just so genuine and friendly. Love this place. I recommend it to everyone lol“

“The bartender Megan was very polite and fun to talk to. Our boneless wings and burger were really delicious but I highly recommend to NEVER get the NEW WONTON TACOS!!. They were terrible barely any meat, meat wasnt even warm, and its on the appetizer menu but it is full priced.“

“Great service & nice atmosphere ☺“

“A true local sports bar with small-town vibes, cold beers, and TVs always tuned to the game — but don’t let the no-frills atmosphere fool you. This might be the best pub food on Long Island, and that’s a hill worth dying on.

The brisket sandwich is smoky and stacked, the Philly cheesesteak hits all the greasy, glorious notes you want… but let’s be clear: the pastrami sandwich is the main event. It’s piled high, ridiculously flavorful, and good enough to make you forget whatever team you’re rooting for is probably losing.

Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t expect anything fancy — just great food, strong local energy, and zero pretension. This is the kind of place that turns first-timers into regulars.“

“We had such a wonderful experience at Shake Shack in Holbrook, NY! From the moment we walked in, it was clear that this location is being run by a strong, dedicated management team.
A special shoutout to Carlos, the manager, who went above and beyond to help us. He was incredibly friendly, professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. You can tell he takes pride in both his work and his team.
The entire staff was working so hard and diligently, while still maintaining a positive and welcoming attitude. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, organized, and well maintained, which really stood out to us.
It’s refreshing to see a team that works so well together and a manager who clearly leads by example. Carlos and his entire team deserve recognition for the excellent job they’re doing!“

“Last Wednesday I was at Davis vision works and we walk to the restaurant for lunch whem we get the we were standing up for almost 15 minutes waiting for someone to give us a table. finally whem someone come to us and without asking if we need a table rigth away he say is was 15 mint wait, me while the restaurant wasn't even packed it was a lot of table empty and even like that he was going to make us to wait more. really bad service and rude attention. we have money to pay it wasn't like we were asking for a free table. people are really racist at this place. I don't recommend“

“Excellent, your getting what you pay for, everything can be customized, you can order in person or kiosk. The kiosk didnt ask me for a tip, felt bad, but good to know if your not a tipper. I couldnt finish my plate, dont say that often on a 20 dollar meal.

Will be back 🙂

The dinning area is smaller, so be prepared to take it to go. In no way a deal breaker for me“

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

“Haven’t had tgi fridays in a few years and I will say it was worth the wait! The food was as good as I remember and our waiter Victoria made sure we had a quality experience! Will be coming back soon to try out some new menu items“

“Excellent service, very friendly,delicious food. My spot is in Staten Island ny, new Dorp location.“

“We always had a enjoy ihop in Vernon hill last time we went the waitress name Ramon was very attentive and respectful with taking our order absolutely recommended“

“Lived near this place and drove past it a million times for 10 yrs now... never went in. My hubby has with friends a few times. Wanted to get a bite so I suggested going there... glad we did! The food was fantastic! Lots of friendly faces behind and at the bar. This just turned into our new go to!“

“My husband & I were at the Smithtown Historical Grounds for a craft fair on 6/7/21. We ordered the typical chicken fingers with fries & bbq sauce on the side. Well, this was anything but typical! The food was delicious but the bbq sauce was unique & incredible and left me wanting more….no NEEDING more! George was nice enough to arrange to meet me next week so I could purchase a jar of his homemade sauce which I’m looking forward to. Service with a smile & amazing bbq sauce! What more could a girl ask for?“

“A typical Applebee's , food is always decent and the staff does the best it knows how. This Applebee's seems to be a hangout for a younger crowd . Although it was only 8 pm , one staff member was cleaning and VACUUMING a section while we, and other diners were eating. I find this a little annoying since the air is being polluted with who knows what from that VACUUM! Not a procedure that should be done while people are eating!“
