41 Best Burger Restaurants in Staten Island

“Highly recommend for a quick burger bite!

Ordered the OG burger, the chimi Burger, and the fries.

Burgers were amazing and the buns are delicious as well.
The fries were enough to feed 2 people, they don't skimp on the meat or the fries.

The owner is also very welcoming and the cashier was patient in explaining and answering questions.

Moving this spot to my go to spots to try different menu items.“

“We recently hosted a family dinner at Ralph’s Sports Bar. Ralph and his staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly and that we were happy. My family thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. My aunt said the chicken francese was the best that she has had and the wings and burgers were outrageous. We are looking forward to our next event at Ralph’s!“

“This place is amazing! I used to live in Brooklyn and used to eat at Roll n Roaster and Brennan and Carr. Now that I live in Staten Island, I tried this place and it has amazing food! The food there is just as good as Roll n Roaster and Brennan and Carr. I definitely recommend eating here.“

“great“

“My friends and I came here after a long day of work, we came in for a quick bite, ended up chatting with the manager and he wouldn’t let us leave without trying their desserts, on the house. The burgers were outstanding, the crisp edges, tangy sauce, soft pillowy bun, crunchy dill pickles, literally just got myself craving one while writing this review.

P.s* Desserts were just a whole another level of deliciousness!!“

“Service & food was great.Definitely beautifully decorated!“

“Stopping at Shake Shack in Empire Outlets turned out to be a nice break while spending time around the Staten Island Ferry and the waterfront. The location is hard to beat, and after walking around the outlets it felt like a convenient place to sit down, relax, and grab a meal without having to go far.

The restaurant had a lively atmosphere with a steady flow of customers, but it still felt well organized. Even with people coming in and out, the staff kept things moving, and the dining area was clean and comfortable. I also liked that there was plenty of seating nearby, making it easy to enjoy the meal while taking in the energy of the area.

Ordering was simple, and my food was prepared in a reasonable amount of time. Everything arrived fresh and looked just as expected. The burger was juicy, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the fries were hot and crispy. It was the kind of meal that delivers exactly what you hope for when you stop at Shake Shack. The quality was consistent, and the portions were satisfying.

One thing I appreciated was that the employees remained friendly even during busy periods. They acknowledged customers, answered questions, and worked efficiently to keep orders moving. Good customer service always makes a difference, and it added to the overall experience.

The location itself is another reason I would return. Being inside Empire Outlets makes it a convenient stop before catching the ferry, after shopping, or while exploring the St. George neighborhood. If you are visiting Staten Island for the day, it is an easy place to include in your plans.

Like many popular locations, it can become crowded during lunch, weekends, and when ferry passengers arrive. Finding a table may require a little patience during those times, and there can be a short wait for food. Still, the staff handled the rush well, and the quality of the meal made the wait worthwhile.

Overall, I left with a positive impression. The food was fresh, the service was friendly, and the location makes it an enjoyable place to stop while visiting Empire Outlets. It is the kind of place where you know what to expect, and in this case, it delivered a satisfying meal in a welcoming environment. I would happily stop here again the next time I am in the area.“

“Went there last week to see what this place was about. OMGGGGGG I can't say enough good things about it. I had the matzo ball soup and 1/2 pastrami sandwich with a side of coleslaw. Everything was absolutely delicious. The soup tasted like my grandmother made it. I cantcwait to go back and try other things, especially the breakfast options. The waitstaff was so attentive.“

“Delicious Hamburgers Good food“

“Angelica and the staff at Palermo are truly top notch! The food is beyond and the service is exceptional. We catered my daughter’s graduation party and my guests could not stop raving about the food! When we met with Angelica to order she was gracious, knowledgeable and totally on-point with the amount we needed. She is wonderful!!! Eat at Palermo!!!“

“Love the turkey sandwichs at this place!! Also love the fact that this is one of the only places on the island that has Zabiha Halal turkey sandwich’s and they do not sell alcohol! Great deli for your daily needs!! 10/10 on the food, no notes!“

“5 stars for the two 3-foot sandwiches: chicken parm and corned beef ; the Cole Slaw; and roasted vegetable Hero we ordered for March 5th Saint Patrick’s Parade Party we threw. Everyone asked where we got the sandwiches. Only crumbs were left on the platters at the end of the day.“

“Best burger so juicy and delicious“

“Awesome food and great service (:“

“I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and let you know how wonderful everything was. We had 60 people at our senior gathering here in Brick, New Jersey, and the compliments kept coming all day—especially about the corned beef, cabbage and the soda bread. Everything was absolutely perfect, and we had more than enough food for all our guests. We truly appreciate your attention to detail and for checking in with us. It meant a lot. We spend quite a bit of time in Staten Island visiting our grandchildren, and you came highly recommended to us—but I can honestly say this was the best recommendation we’ve ever received. Worth the trip !! Coming from a family of butchers and caterers, that’s a very big compliment! Thank you again. We will absolutely be using you for future events. Warm regards, Anthony“

“Great neighborhood pizzeria. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and made perfectly. You can tell they take pride in what they do, and the service was friendly and welcoming. It has that classic Staten Island pizza shop feel that’s getting harder to find these days.

Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you’re in the area. 🍕“

“I recently visited and had such a great experience! The food was delicious, but what really stood out was the amazing service. Kayliana and Emily were both so friendly, attentive, and made the whole visit even better. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect — definitely some of the best customer service I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend stopping by!“

“They have great tasting, hot, soft bagels!! I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel...Ahhh, let me tell you, I felt like I was biting into a piece of heaven. Yes, it may sound over the top, but when I'm here visiting Stateline Island, the first thing I want in the morning is exactly what I just told you. We don't get it that good upstate where I live!! You all are lucky!!! Enjoy!!!“

“I ordered for the first time last night. I ordered pick up and the food was hot and fresh upon picking up. we ordered the garlic knot Sicilian, my kids loved it and it in general the pizza was good . we ordered the boneless wings also were good. the pork ribs amazing just wish they had dry rub options. spinach and artichoke dip, cheese needed to melt but flavor was good and large portion. potato croquettes were also delish and come with sauce . the staten island chicken panini and twisted were also delish! beef empanadas a lil soggy but more from transport but flavor was good . (maybe dff type of container or poke holes in future ) we also had a frozen sangria that I wished after we had ordered more.. will def order again!“
