Burger Restaurants near Mercer Island

“Update: went back and the fries we great again! Thanks for listening.

I’m really glad Haps reopened, as it’s a true Mercer Island treasure. That said, the fries I just had, which used to be great, were some of the worst I’ve ever had. They tasted like someone had just microwaved a batch that had been made hours ago. I really hope this is a one-off experience.“

“My favorite restaurant And it has been my whole life is“

“Went here with my family. We had reservations so we were able to go in right away (there was a lot of people waiting). The drinks were really good and the food was awesome! Our waitress was very nice and suggested to split burger before we even asked (our family likes to share). We even made a reservation in two weeks to take other friends there! Definitely recommend!“

“I can confidently say this is not only the best burger in Seattle but the best burger I’ve ever had. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming and their food lives up to every expectation and more. The food comes out to you quick and they take the time to converse with their customers. The smash burgers are perfectly made and a fully commit to the messy nature of sandwiches without becoming soggy. They understand what they are selling and have streamlined it so well that it creates for the perfect experience. Wherever this truck sits is a destination spot if you ever visit the city.“

“Great local burger place. Been going here forever. Burgers are really good but the absolute highlight is the onion rings. The best onion rings I’ve ever had anywhere in the world. Seriously worth a visit just for the onion rings. Great shakes too. Pretty decent cost as well, especially considering the cost of fast food now days. Way better than any fast food and not much more money. They can definitely get really busy at times but they’re good about cranking the food out at a decent pace.“

“Our goto special burger place“

“I go there. Sad one at U Village going to closed.“

“Pretty good burger with good flavor. I couldn’t tell you what makes it “korean style,” but I liked it! Highlight of the burger was the meltiness/stringiness of the cheese. The fries are McDonalds duplicates and were pretty good as well. Reasonably priced; small dine in area but it was cozy and decorated for Halloween. Friendly and fast service.“

“Food was amazing highly recommend“

“Stumbled upon this place—and wow! If you’re craving a juicy burger and perfectly crispy fries, look no further. The service was top-notch, and Tino was incredibly friendly and personable—really made the experience even better. Highly recommend this spot. 10/10!“

“We love the burgers ?

At Red Mill Burgers we got one of the best Burger we ever had.

The atmosphere was great. The burger was fantastic. The meat is so juicy and full of flavor. The fries are really good also. So crispy.

I got the Double Bacon deluxe with Cheese and fries. And my girlfriend got an Bacon deluxe with cheese.

Would definitely come here again.

Vegetarian options: The have a couple of vegetarian Burgers.“

“Best Mac n Cheese in the city!“

“delicious and big burgers, the fried were bomb“

“The burger and fries were delicious. I loved how the burger was smashed and how well seasoned the fries were, but overall the burger and fries were pricier ($16) than I expected for the amount. While the ordering experience was seamless the parking and pick up situation was a nightmare. Don’t think I’d come back but the food was good.“

“Food was good and pretty cheap considering the amount of fries they give you. Only thing I didn’t like was the charging for condiments and the inside feels real empty. Chairs are along the edges of the restaurant but the middle is completely empty like it’s going to be used for and event or something

Parking: Plenty of free parking“

“door dashed from them last night and it was delicious!! the chicken sandwich I had was amazing!“

“Love the club sandwich. Tried the bacon wrapped figs last time and they were awesome!“

“My go too burger place. 🍔 Love the addictive onion rings.“

“best 🐟 sandwich in the state of Washington“

“Absolutely delicious!!
I had the #6 lamb burger with sauteed onions. The burger was super juicy, very tasty and filling!! The perfect meal after a long day of air traveling. They have picnic tables out front if you prefer to sit outside. Highly recommend.“

“I had to share… We had the pleasure of ordering food from Burger Planet food truck today at the Ballard FC game. A lady ahead of me was vegan and was trying to figure out what to eat. The staff was patient with here, even though it was a BURGER FOOD TRUCK, and even after she ordered and paid, they worked with her to get it right. They eventually credited her money and still gave her the food. Real classy thing to do. You didn’t have to but you went above and beyond. Nicely done!!“

“This was my gf and I 1st time eating here and let me tell you it was soooo good! We will definitely be frequenting this place. Thank you guys for dinner 5⭐s“

“My favorite brewery in a city full of exceptional breweries. The perfect place to catch a baseball game + the sunset over the sound. The food is great, the beer is great, and the bartenders make you feel like family. I'm a big fan of the maple chili wings & (despite drinking myself out of IPAs in the 2010s) the ever-crushable Glitter Paw IPA. Go and blow kisses at Cuyler for me 😘“

“Nice view, good food, respectful serving staff, great atmosphere.“

“It’s all good and I would love to see more friends come here“

“the best burger place on the Ave!! signed, a vegetarian who loves the garden burgers and the mushroom burgers :)“

“lunch for 5 men today. all 12th man Burgers. they were legit!!!!!! onion rings Rocked!!!!!“

“I go there. Sad one at U Village going to closed.“

“My tween daughter and I stopped in on New Years Eve after our plans elsewhere fell apart. The food here was amazing and the staff honestly treated us like queens! Thank you for rescuing our sad vibe while the rest of our family was sick in the hotel and we had been treated poorly at a nearby fancy restaurant. Big Max Burger rocks!“

“The burgers are amazing and inventive! Highly recommend!“

“Excellent food and service“

“Traditional fast food done well. I love their fried mushrooms. Good French fries. I'm pescatarian with a wheat gluten allergy, so I always get either the garden burger or the fish (fried) sandwich on a gluten-free bun. My spouse likes their burgers and other sandwiches. No bad choices. Great milkshake selection, too, although I never get them for myself.“

“Nice place for burgers, wings and shakes. They also have veggie and vegan burger.“

“Every time we visit Habit Burger Grill, it’s a win. While their burgers are consistently top-notch—juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked—it’s their salads that are the real hidden gem.

Seriously, the salads here are so underrated. Fresh, crisp, loaded with flavor, and surprisingly satisfying. Whether you’re trying to eat healthy or just want something lighter, they absolutely deliver.

And let’s be honest—their burgers? They always hit. Every. Single. Time.

This place doesn’t miss. Great food, fast service, and consistency that’s rare these days. Five stars all day. If you haven’t tried their salads yet, you’re sleeping on one of Habit’s best-kept secrets.“

“I really like the burgers here. Recently had dinner here for my birthday. The meat is always perfectly cooked and appears to be carefully prepared. The edges of the patties end up with a delicious salty crust, almost like a steak. There are no silly additives to mask lower quality meat. The buns, especially the brioche buns are high quality, and so are the toppings. Lettuce, while shredded, is always crisp. Tomato slices are thick and firm, and the pickles add crunch and texture and are never wilty or slimy. They have plenty of options for non-meat eaters. I think that’s nice, and sorta unexpected for a place with “burger” in the name.
The fries are delicious. I’m not sure, but I think they’re cooked in peanut oil. And selection of drinks is enough to satisfy anyone. My kids love the huckleberry milkshakes, and I love the local lager. It’s too hard to find lager these days, but I love a crisp Pilsner with a burger. I think the shed-like structure is just fine. I love when they roll open the doors for al fresco dining. Dang, I can’t wait to go back!“

“Love the vibe! The food was really good, it reminded me of home (New Mexico).

I had the Bison Taco and Honey/powdered Sugar Fry Bread. The fry bread was perfect, crispy on the outside but soft and fluffy on the inside. The Bison taco was good overall, but the meat lacked a bit of flavor. I wish I would have gone with the chili beef.

I spent about $17 for two items and a canned drink.

I would come here again next time im in town.“

“I cant remember ever having a better burger ever!..Best Value too.“

“Stopped in while my kids were at KingCon! OMG the sweet potato fries and the sauce-amazing!!!!“

“great food and friendly staff“

“Great coffee to start with. Thx for Combo plate recommendation. Tofu scramble flavor was very good. Biscuit were not dry and dense. So far best vegan biscuit and gravy for me. Egg Benedict assembly is insta worthy. Thier Hot sauce with potatoes kicks the brunch a notch up in flavors. Have to visit back for Rueben and dinner and drinks.“

“I heard that it was a famous burger restaurant in Seattle and that I had to try it at least once when I was traveling, so I went there in the evening.

The store is clean and the food comes out very quickly.

The food isn't delicious, but it's okay.

I had a deluxe burger, vanilla milkshake, and french fries.
Considering the cost-effectiveness, I think it’s okay.

The advantage is that it's open late.“

“The burgers are amazing, I order Mushroom burgers and fried cheese curds with matching the hot sauce that has become more tasty. And also the service was very friendly and efficient. Definitely stop by if and try their great foods.“

“We were visiting Seattle from New York, so we searched on Google and found the best reviews of Shahana Steakhouse. We decided to stop by for the Ramadan Buffet (we visited a couple more restaurants in Seattle), so the best Iftar buffet and the out-of-class service in the Seattle area is here, with excellent customer service and a perfectly managed buffet. I noticed they were crazy busy on weekdays. The restaurant was full of people, and there was a long line; the staff served dates in the line and continued filling the dishes with food, even for families that were joining very late. Everything was fresh and warm, including their delicious pizza, fried chicken, and tikka boti. I loved Shahi Tukray; you must try it if you are there for a buffet. They even served the food at the tables for the customers who came in later. They came to us twice at our table to serve the food. Everything was very well set up, and there was fantastic management. I am going there for suhoor/breakfast and will let you all know about the homemade parathas and omelets. Stay tuned.“

“We were deciding between a hot dog and a burger, while standing at a picnic table in-front of People’s Burger. Who I assume is the owner interupt ed and said, “Not just a Burger The Best Burger.” I asked if they had Gluten Free buns. They did! So we ordered Black N Blu burgers and fries. And what a Burger!!! It REALLY was the best burger we have ever had. So good. And the fries are like Dick’s but better. This is a not be missed place.“

“got two burgers with my partner and swapped half of the Southwest and Bulgogi, SOOOOO GOOD!! we’re just visiting from champaign IL and im not even a burger person but ive gotten this twice and we have only been here for 2 nights and 3 days lol“

“Extremely delectable, simply scrumptious. I love Katsu burger fr no kizzy -sol“

“Cranberry fried chicken was very good. The chicken was very soft & juicy. The haystack fries were simple, slim & basic. I little seasoning would be great or at least as a option. The best seating is in the park next door. Worth a return visit.“

“hands down best food i’ve had in a decade plus! The hospitality was on point ! Cant wait for a second visit !!“

“They had so many gluten-free options for me, and everything was delicious!! (I'd been feeling a little bummed since we recently went to a particular other Shack nearby that didn't have many GF options, so...) I had a super craving for a good burger and it hit the SPOT. :)
Also the cajun tots were amazing.
