50 Best Burger Restaurants near Old Hickory

“Delicious hot chicken, wonderful collard greens and fried okra!! I will be a returning customer. Thank you so much for your kindness and delicious food!!!“

“Amazing burgers and fries! Quiet little hidden gem with limited seating but great staff and food. Chicken is sliced chicken, not chicken breasts but still great. Salads and bowls are also great. Kids are welcome. Patio seating.

Kid-friendliness: They do have a simple kid menu. Great for lunch or dinner but they do have a bar and trivia. So, probably best before 7pm. Bring my infant and toddler often and see other little kids“

“The customer service is always on point. The workers are friendly and usually fast. Breakfast biscuit sandwiches are all always fresh. There are closer locations to my home however I travel to the Okd Hickory location because typically it is a great experience.“

“Best burgers in downtown! Highly recommend the wagyu burgers!“

“Man very delicious!! Great customer service!!“

“I ordered, received and devoured the chili cheese burger; YUM. They piled on the sweet potatoes fries…had to bring some home though. I don’t mess around when it comes to sweet potatoes which are my favorite especially round this time of year. I will highly recommend to my friends. The ambience felt like close-knit family and close friends. Yummy 😋“

“The food was cooked exactly to the specifications we asked. The portions were outstanding, service was great, prices great, definitely worth a trip if you're in the area. Bonus they offer a Military Discount.“

“10/23/25 1:10 AM

I literally just ordered, received, and ate this burger. It was a very ugly burger but it was the best tasting thing I've had from a burger joint in FOREVER. The cheese was melted through the thin patties and the fries I got were perfectly salted. Also with it being open so late, and probably a good portion of people are ordering right now if arrived in no time. Definitely would try more, I got a basic cheese burger.

P.S. I didn't go into this store so I gave it a neutral star.“

“Just had a jumbo burger with cheddar. So good. It was huge and really good, made to order. Perfect.“

“Grill shack burgers and fries have the best staff, food and such a great environment! Awesome fries that are fresh, fun for lunch or dinner. My brother Drew works there and you will love him!! Definitely stop in!“

“We started with the pepperoni cheese curds lightly breaded and paired with a bright, flavorful marinara. Then we shared the Jalapeño Popper Burger, ordered medium rare, cooked perfectly with just the right kick of heat. We upgraded to the Nashville Hot Tots… yum! Our server Nate brought that authentic Tennessee charm, prompt, friendly, and made us feel right at home. We grabbed a Cookie Butter Shake to go and WOWZA! Sweet, rich, and dangerously good. Excellent!“

“Friendly service and delicious food. We had a gyros wrap and falafel wrap. Both were delicious!“

“Great burgers and service!!!“

“We got there within 40 minutes of closing (not busy thank goodness for us). We were served quickly. We had the Detroit pizza and it was fabulous. Food was great and the service was fabulous. We are only here for two days, otherwise I would definitely go again.“

“The food was delicious and the service was great!“

“Friday night after a few drinks late night at some local bars and not wanting to drive far from our hotel, we ordered from here and LOVEDDDD it. Pizza was hot, fresh ingredients & we ate every single slice. To top it off they graciously added a 2 liter of sprite to our order that we didn't even order & let us use their restroom. That following Sat we decided to try something different on the menu & we still were more than happy. The small calzone was HUGE and full of ingredients but not too much. The cheesesteak hoagie was a great portion too. 4 people ate just those 2 things and we all we FULL! And again we were offered a free soda. We now all have this placed saved for our return to Nashville“

“Have eaten at JJ’s many times, have had many menu items from breakfast to sandwiches and all things in between. Great portions, waitresses are spot on and very friendly, clean, and cold beer is a plus!“

“Wonderful service and great food what more can you ask for.“

“I went for the first time Saturday 🤯Lisa and Craig are the best! The ribs and the banana pudding are incredible!! I’ll def be back!“

“The West Coast Burger at Burger Republic is a winner. It’s got that nostalgic, diner-style vibe but turned up a notch with bold, fresh flavor. The thin patties are crispy on the edges, juicy in the middle, and layered just right with tangy toppings that really pop. Even with the crowd, the staff kept things moving and friendly. Solid spot if you’re craving a burger that delivers on both taste and vibe.“

“I ordered Burger Up via Uber Eats and was happily pleased with my dinner! I got a traditional burger that was really delicious and had lots of flavor. I also got the crispy chicken bites, which were my favorite by far. They had incredible flavor and I wish I had had more of them to save for later. I also tried the Mac and cheese bites, which were good, but the sauce that came with them was better. Looking forward to getting that chicken again soon!“

“Walk up or drive up-someone comes to car to take order on drive up. Big mo deluxe literally 2 patties. Turkey burger was very good. Chicken sandwhich was 2 chicken strips-very good. Listed spicy fries but they were just seasoned fries. Very good portion sizes. Burgers were a little dry for my taste. I felt it was a little pricey all things considered however everyone was full. Was disappointed when asking for extra condiment and because it wasn't in a packet we would get charged. After spending over $70 for drive thru I would have liked to just have been given extra condiment very nice staff. Overall would return.“

“The lemon pepper wings are ? . Wish they gave a little more fries to an order is the only thing I'd really suggest. Service was prompt and friendly. The food was hot and freshly cooked. The pricing is also good compared to other places for the amount of food. I've paid more for much smaller wings at other places to be disappointed but not at Mr. Burger.“

“we just ordered take out and IT WAS DISGUSTING! you want to know why people aren't tipping? I just tipped and Noone did their job. that order should have NEVER left the kitchen. try getting a manger...still waiting UPDATE: when a customer calls and asks for the manager...YOU GET THE MANAGER AND NOT HANG UP“

“Good burger, just wish they had better choice to customize.“

“I have been coming to eggs up everyday for the past 2 months, I clearly love the staff the food everything about Eggs Up Grill wows me. The staff starts my day I am grateful I get to be surrounded by wonderful positive people. Thank you Ricky for running a tight CLEAN ship. Brittany for keeping my coffee full and Henery for making the best BLT I have ever had. Hats off to you all. Cant wait to see them in the morning. If you haven't came out and supported our local community I highly suggest that you do!“

“One of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in my life! I came in last night May 17th, all the workers were very polite and had good energy. Food turned out amazing. Usually dining out for me and my daughter is hit or miss since we have dietary restrictions, but the staff here were very respectful and made sure to attend to it. Overall great and efficient management. Will be going here again.“

“We had a fantastic brunch at Liberty Common! The food was absolutely delicious, with a great variety of options that catered to all tastes. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed yet elevated brunch experience. Highly recommend Liberty Common for anyone looking for great food and a wonderful dining experience!“

“Came here for game day vs chargers to meet a friend and I have to say everything was phenomenal! Mallory recommended the wings with hot honey on the side and a 4x4xblue cocktail that was so good. The vibe was so nice and I had an awesome time at BBU!!“

“Great service. Great pizza. Great variety if you want more than pizza. Restaurant staff also took initiative to call to ask about our reservation when they saw we had two. They were able to combine us at a big table. And they brought a surprise bday dessert.“

“Friendly service. Ordered lobster roll, crab cake sandwich, hand cut fries and freshly squeezed lemonade all very good! Larger seafood portions than cousin’s! Lobster Mac N cheese NO Bueno! Would recommend and come again to try other items on the menu!“

“Hermitage hardees is the best in the Nashville area.. burgers are awesome great biscuits great service great employees great management the store is very clean“

“WOW. Food fantastic. Each order for me equals two if not all three meals for the day.However, the 6 am commute suggests an earlier business opportunity. Trial period perhaps“

“Dylan was super friendly, and a wonderful bartender--made our visit extra fun!“

“Great food awesome drinks! Music out of this world! Stephanie Williams best bartender Nashville!!!“

“This was our first time at Bar Louie. Nice bar. Lots of seating. Had a nice atmosphere tonight. Unfortunately the hostess was unfriendly, she sat us at a booth that wasn’t wiped down which she should have noticed. She was more interested in her cell phone than doing a good job. Lazy young lady. There was a single woman bartender tonight, she was really slow in making our drinks. We received our dinner before our drinks were brought to our table. It wasn’t that busy. When my husband asked her where the restrooms were, she said as she shrugged her shoulders as to point to her right, there over there, keep walking. Rude with an attitude. The salad that was brought out with our dinner was wilted like it had been sitting in a refrigerator for hours. Our waiter was very nice, but he should have noticed this and ask the cook to make a new one. He did bring it to the kitchen manager and she delivered a freshly made salad to our table. On a good note, The chicken entree with a mushroom sauce and fresh vegetables was very delicious. Overall we like the place. Give it a try. Drinks were good, food was delicious.“

“This was the best burger I’ve ever had! We will definitely be back!!!!! The food was fresh and delicious 😋“

“Excellent food and service. 10 out of 10 would recommend!“

“Stopped in here today just to get drinks and fries. The best service, kind folks working here. The gentleman working the grill stepped out to give us seasoning for the fries. One of the ladies brought out the Nutella shake for my daughter. I saw the folks here helping others with the tech check out stations. Fries, shake and drinks were great! Really great experience! Thank you!“

“We got there within 40 minutes of closing (not busy thank goodness for us). We were served quickly. We had the Detroit pizza and it was fabulous. Food was great and the service was fabulous. We are only here for two days, otherwise I would definitely go again.“

“Amazing! We need one in Cookeville!“

“We had a large group come in for a family reunion the next day and needed somewhere to eat dinner the night before. They seated us outside on their large deck. Brooklyn was the sweetest server I’ve ever seen! She waited on us with patience and professionalism, which must have been a challenge, considering everyone was more interested in socializing and moving around. She got all of our separate checks tallied correctly and handed out little cards with inspirational verses on them. Those were the biggest hit of all! BTW - the food was delicious!😋“

“I like this place. Typical back end industrial complex, but when you walk in, it's got a great brewery feel. Had myself some wing and fries from the independent food stuff store inside the building. Beers are good. I've had the same all around, a nice to like-brown ale wasn't watery, and a classic Czech pilsner hit the spot. I like the Santa's summer vacay and the calla IPA the best. 6 serving flight! Nice. Worth the visit, they got a whole menu of beer not just 5 or 6. Atmosphere is open, plenty of tables and bar stools alike. Service was good, knowledgeable beer drafters helping me pick out my first time here beers. When I had my visit I noticed kids were welcomed if that helps. Thank you I enjoyed my visit. Thanks Ty for recommendations.“

“The Route 66 burger rocked!“
