13 Best Burger Restaurants in San Francisco

“Loved this place!!! Cute Diner. Friendly Manager (I wished I got his name), helpful since it was my first time there. Service was great and food was quick! So if you are hungry - you won't wait long. But get there early when it opens, because it started to get busy when we were done. I will go back again. Recommend for yummy smash burgers ? and beer ?Oh and I was able to bring my little dog - she sat in the booth next to me.“

“Met up with family here for a beer before sailing. This place has been here for a while. I first noticed it from a spot on Anthony Bourdains show. We had fish and chips and a couple of burgers. Food was good and they had a nice selection of drinks. Live music was playing and it was pretty crowded but lots of seating. I feel it's really all about location. Worth a stop if you're down in the Oracle Arena area.“

“Food was good! Atmosphere was fun!“

“Great Breakfast rated one of the Best in the city. Be careful not to go to the apartments Uber driver almost dropped us off at the complex entrance. Great fresh juices and waffles made from scratch. Chicken fried steak was good , the only negative was to much gravy that had the Italian sausage in it ; strawberry jalapeños jam was amazing!!“

“The burgers are so juicy and delicious! Anthony Bourdain was right!“

“My favorite food is everything on the menu“

“Zeitgeist is an epic dive bar whose main attraction is the outdoor beer garden which is a great setting for heavy afternoon beer consumption. The no photo rules maintains the sanctity of this watering hole that is frequented by a mix of college kids, hipsters and bikers.“

“Ordered on uber eats food was still fresh and was nearby a busy area of hotels tasted decent the sauce is amazing as you can see I was loaded up on the sauce lol. Also they were opened till 11 which is good I recommend going by car or get delivery due to street zombies aka crackheads roaming around I got the fried chicken sandwich with fries with a drink.“

“This is a solid bar with amazing wings and a delicious burger and fries! I ordered all of that just for myself and of course couldn’t finish it all. I had tasty leftovers the next day. Service was good and the bar was fairly empty on a Wednesday evening around 6 pm.“

“The food is very good but not what I expected. I’ve been watching YouTube shorts where I see “Chinese burgers” where the bun is flaky and in layers that are pulled apart to be filled with any number of things. This flaky, layered bread is what I was expecting. Instead, the bread used for the Chinese burgers is more like a larger English muffin without the nooks and crannies—not what I was hoping for. Still, the food is good, especially the noodles with tomato and egg.“

“It was late night order and I’ve never had a burger dog before but wanted to try since frisco fried out them on the scene back in the day. Ordered my door dash and couldn’t wait. As soon as they arrive I could smell the goodness so I take my pics and dive in.Burger Dog: Hefty on the meat, felt like it was more beef than an actual burger and I wanna say easier to eat. Only change I would add bacon and that’s my bad. Very good burger dog!Bacon Hot Dog: Butterflied Beef Dog with crispy bacon! Another hit.Very simple menu options but they hit it out the park. Would definitely double back to this spot to try them fresh.Parking: It’s on 20th street so not impossible but keep your eyes open spots get taken fastKid-friendliness: Burgers, Hot Dogs, Fries I think so….Wheelchair accessibility: It’s in San Francisco it has to be accessible“

“Classic establishment.If you're into old-school atmosphere then this is place. Not a SF resident but been here many times starting in 1979 (I know, mosyt readers here weren't even a twinkle in parents eye...)Very comfortable eating alone here & generally at bar. I believe food is at consistent high level ?“

“Joe is great. After our Uber drive dropped us in the wrong place, Joe would tell us how to get there, he took us there. It was only at the end of the block, but meant the world to us. He wouldn’t accept a tip, so went back to have a beer after dinner. He remembered our name. He is the true meaning of customer service and I’ve told all of my friends to go see him at the Showdown. Thanks again, Joe“
