11 Best Burger Restaurants in Fairfax

“Carlos is the very best! He is a great server and took care of us. My daughter's birthday was awesome because of him! Kudos to this location which also takes GREAT care of its Beer Club members! We'll be back soon!“

“The best banana pudding milkshake out of any place we've been to, and it's not even close. The California burger was amazing and perfectly made. This is a must-try place, especially if you've never been before! It was our first time, and we absolutely loved it! The only issue was the size of the fries; they are on the smaller side, but that did not affect the taste. We just wished they were bigger.“

“As every other Sunday, great family time …“

“I enjoyed my service waiter was very nice and I really liked that“

“First time guest Oct 28, 2025 lunch time. Great service. Food was so good. I had the Mason pulled pork sandwich with fries. The sandwich was huge. I had to eat a lot of the pork with my fork first to get the sandwich to a reasonable size to bite 😂 the sandwich had slaw, pickles and an onion ring. It was really delicious!! The fries were crispy and not greasy. I’m a fry lover I approved 😜 I really love the atmosphere, decor, design and seating options. Absolutely going back soon!“

I was asked to revisit, and I did over the weekend. This time I went in for a late lunch around 1:40. It was less crowded, and there wasn’t a long line of frustrated customers waiting for food. My order came out much faster and tasted much better than before. It seems the new manager has really improved the process — fewer people in the kitchen and more helping out front, which made a big difference. I’ll definitely be coming back. Hopefully next time the tables will be cleaner — that part still needs some attention.

I decided to give this Fairfax City location a second try before writing a review, but unfortunately, the experience didn’t improve. Both visits were during Saturday lunch hours — the first time was packed, the second much quieter. Despite fewer customers, my order still took quite a while the first time (over 45 minutes) and came out much faster the second (about 25 minutes), though the quality didn’t quite match.

The food itself tastes good, but consistency seems to be an issue. My first visit had burnt buns; the second, a burnt patty. Not sure which is better at this point. For a burger place, the wait time feels unusually long.

I also noticed several customers looking frustrated or leaving while waiting, and tables weren’t cleaned during my second visit — I ended up wiping one down myself. Despite having plenty of staff, the operation felt disorganized.

I might try a different location, but probably not this one again.“

“Nice, chill location. the food was good. I ordered the 10pc wings with fries. I don't recommend getting the honey mustard sauce. it's the cost of a drink🥴, literally. Why something the same size as ranch or blue cheese costs the same as a drink (while the ranch and blue cheese don't cost extra), I'm not sure. If you're like me and don't eat ranch or blue cheese, bring your own honey mustard. other than that, I highly recommend.“
