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“

“I want to shout out your employee Darria Gibson! She is so respectful, the service was superb, I was having a terrible morning until I came through the drive thru. She uplifted me and I uplifted her. I feel every franchise should have an employee just like her. I'm not sure of her title but after today she deserves a raise or higher position. So respectful! Please let her know to keep up the good service.“

“I think it's crazy how I never made a review here considering how much I love the burgers. My wife put up a note that I took a picture of. It's been up for over 4 years. Whenever I come back, I'm going to document everything else!“

“Absolutely phenomenal!! A must try!“

“Yes!! The hostess Beverlyn welcomes you like you’re family and is amazing. Our server was informative and great! French onion burger was wonderful!!!“

“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!“

“Best burger, atmosphere and sweetest people. You will NOT be disappointed AT ALL!!!!!!!!“

“We finally tried the Candied Rib Company today—and WOW… I’m still thinking about it 🤤🔥 We had the pork sandwich, beef, ribs (can’t forget those!), potatoes, banana pudding, and coleslaw—and every single bite was incredible. The flavors were on point, the meat was tender, and everything tasted homemade and dialed in just right. I’ve seen them online for a while and decided to give them a shot today… and I’m so glad we did. Hands down, this is the best barbecue I’ve had in a long time—and honestly, the best brisket I’ve ever had. No question. Safe to say… we’ve found our new go-to BBQ spot 🙌 🔥 If you haven’t tried them yet, you’re missing out!“

“Get a Little Mo’s Burger or a Fat Mo’s Burger. Anything larger will probably be too much food, especially if you also get fries. Get the regular fries, which are seasoned with seasoning salt. They’re the best! You’ll be stuffed and happy. Everything is cooked fresh and is delicious. Get an orange shake for dessert if you have room for it.“

“Food was good & very good service. We had one problem & they gave us 1/2 off our entire bill & a card for free appetizer the next time we came in. 4 different emp. Apologized- the last one following us to the sidewalk apologizing.“

“Any place named Shake Shack gotta be good but dang it no need to go and put on airs over it. Fast friendly service. Employees being all concerned about you having good experience. Want you to feel welcome and stuff. Y'all trying to corner the Shake Market.? And don't gets me started on that outstanding food situation.......“

“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“

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

“The wings are my absolute favorite, and I’ve been here multiple times just for them. The staff is always professional, friendly, and consistently does a great job. The food is high quality, flavorful, and always worth the visit.

I truly hope they are able to expand in the future and move to a larger location so they can stay open longer and include weekend hours. They have a great business, and their food deserves to reach even more people.“

“Cold beer. hot food even hotter women. let me tell you this is a great place to go for a good time. Gabby is out of this world. you have to ask for her. you will not be disappointed. if you're in Madison, make sure that this is your first stop. I recommend the fish sandwich and the burgers. they're fantastic!“

“Visited Emmy Squared on a trip to Nashville recently and absolutely loved my meal.
I had the Paulie, the wedge salad, and a spring cocktail (Beez Kneez). Everything was delicious! I will literally drive back to Nashville to have that meal again.
The restaurant was inviting, and the music playlist was on point!
Shout out to Richard at the bar! He was the best.“

“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!“

“Walked in and was immediately greeted with a warm and invite welcome by Lexi S. This is the first time I have tried your food and let me say it was phenomenal. It what made the experience over the top was Lexi having such a bubbly personality. Y’all better hang on to her.

“People buy from People”“

“We were in town for vacation and stopped for lunch on a Friday. The crowd was great and so was the music. Our lunch was good and so were our drinks. It was however, a bit pricey. But everything is expensive in downtown Nashville. Our service was a bit slow but that wouldn't stop me from coming back. The rooftop was a fun place to hang out with our kids after lunch and have a drink and listen to music.“

“I found the food delicious the employees very friendly. The establishment is clean as a pan and everyone treats you like you are family I find of all the Hardee’s stores Hermitage store is by far to me the nicest friendliest cleanest one.“

“Great food and a great vibe. Really enjoyed our lunch!“

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

“05/16/26- I came here by accident. They sit by a Burger King 👑 and Taco 🌮 Bell 🛎️ I wasn’t impressed with BK menu and I don’t eat TB. We don’t have Cook Out in my state. So I decided to eat here.

I walked in and you know how the first thing everyone wants to do is wash their hands 🙌 This place has the sink with soap 🧼 and paper towels 🧻 ready for you to wash right before you place your order. I washed my hands 🙌

I walked in and was immediately greeted by Kamaris. He welcomed me in and answered my questions.

He had finished with a customer, then he let me look at the menu. He asked if I was ready and went over the menu.

He helped me place my order. It was easy from there. My meal was $7.99 plus tax and it comes with a drink.

Drinks - The ice machine was out but one of the crew members came out to look at it while I was there.

Since the cherry drink was out Kamaris had to get it from the back. The Cherry 🍒 drink is delicious 😋

I wasn’t supposed to drink it (diabetic) but I could not resist. I recommend you try it!

Sides - The meal comes with two sides. I asked for Hush Puppies. It comes with six Hush Puppies and they’re freshly made.

The fries are seasoned with a Cajun salt that adds a great taste. I ordered their own sauce and it was good with the hush puppies and the fries.

Burger - you get to add your toppings from a wide selection. I ordered grilled onions, mustard, and pickles on two patties. I don’t like cheese or anything else. I don’t eat both buns and the meal was filling.

Shout out to Kamaris who did it all. He ran the register and was busy after I placed my order. He was friendly to all his customers as he helped them all.

Later I saw him throwing out the trash. He had a good attitude about his job and his restaurant.

Kamaris told me his restaurant is the best one. I hope he’s recognized for his positive attitude. I enjoyed my visit thanks to Kamaris!“

“Nashville wedding weekend. Craving a burger and Big Jimmy’s reviews caught my eye. Local joint with live music and great burgers! Staff were great. They have local Driskin ciders- perfect with the burger!! Def stop by when in Nashville!! We’ll be back!“

“This place is great! I cannot recommend it enough.
We stayed a couple of nights at the Grand Ole RV Park, and a fellow there recommended Yazoo to us. We enjoyed it so much that we went both nights we were in Nashville.
The beer is excellent with a good variety, and the burgers were top notch with fries to die for.
We enjoyed the lovely outdoor patio with our dogs, who were taken care of immediately with water and treats by the staff who were genuinely friendly and engaging. (I’m sorry I don’t remember names 😔)
We were also able to pick up a fun shirt and a couple of six-packs to go!

Go to Yazoo Brewing! You won’t be disappointed!“

“we absolutely love Kikis and love the new ice cream bar! The staff and food are wonderful!! Its especially delightful before seeing a show ♥️“

“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“

“Husband: I'm really not hungry - proceeds to eat an entire burger and fries 😆
Great food! The hangover burger was piled high! Naked tenders had a nice flavor. The seasoning on the fries is A+, they're perfectly crispy and fluffy! Even the to-go packaging is adorable!“

“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.“

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

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

“I had a very positive dining experience today, particularly with your automated system. This was my first time utilizing such a system, and I greatly appreciated the assistance provided by Jalen. He guided us through the entire process, including clarifying the procedure for scanning tickets to obtain beverages. Furthermore, our food was delivered promptly, arriving before we had finished our drinks. This was an exceptionally positive experience, and I intend to recommend your establishment widely. I look forward to returning. Thank you, Jalen.“

“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.“
