The Most Delicious Burgers in Baltimore

Peri Peri Original

★★★★☆ 3.5 (23)

"This location is brand new and is hosting a grand opening event in November. We stopped in and noticed they have a kiosk where you can place your order if you don't want to stand in line. We decided to go the old-school route and order with an employee. I ordered the honey garlic chicken sandwich + 1 side and opted for the onion rings. My wife ordered the Nashville hot chicken. When I opened the bag to start the meal I was surprised to see three sauce containers (everyone knows I love my sauces). Two were a garlic dipping sauce which I assumed were for dipping the sandwich into. The other was a oil mixture that may have been for the onion rings. I could be wrong but that's how I ended up using them and they were superb. First of all, if you are a garlic lover then this is your sandwich. As someone who can eat baked garlic paste alone, I felt right at home. The rings themselves were cooked perfectly and had a fresh taste to them. The onion ring sauce starts off mild but then leaves a HOT! flavor. This place tops Roaming Rooster and all the other halal sandwich shops around. My new fav."

The Smoked Buffalo

★★★★☆ 3.6 (5)

"Actually it's a 4.5. We found this place by luck. Walked in with Ribs n Oxtail on our tastebuds. Sadly like any great smoked places, they were sold out of ribs and oxtail for the day. We learned don't stroll in close to 6pm. We were greeted and met the owner, his son and his handsome grandson. We ordered the whiting, brisket, yams, collard green and green beans. You owe it to your tastebuds to try this place. We will be back, it was Amazing and delicious.Thank you"

Benny's Pub

★★★★☆ 3.8 (78) • $$

"Well done. This place is good. Music is good. Food is clean. Fast food. Good service. Well done. Will definitely come here again. No grease on the deep fried food. Fries was great. Nice amount of sauce. Well done. It's difficult to do great food in a pub setting. I am impressed."

17 Light Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (59) • $$

"While on a conference in Baltimore, we decided to meet a colleague who was staying in the residence inn and she suggested the hotel restaurant. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a terrible suggestion. First of all, on a cold rainy night, you don't want to walk into a restaurant to have dinner, only to find out you have to keep your jackets on because it is colder inside than outside!! Secondly, even though there were like two other customers, the service was excruciatingly slow. I decided to order a crab soup to get warm and a blackened tuna wrap, both of which were awful. The soup tasted like canned crushed tomatoes mostly and I was not warned that it was going be spicy. The tuna was super cold and grossly under seasoned. The wasabi aioli was watery and kept spilling everywhere and it was quite tasteless. All in all, a bad experience. I would have enjoyed a subway more!"

Spirits West

★★★★★ 4.8 (9) • $$

"What a hidden gem! Don't let the surrounding area deceive you! The Buffalo chicken sandwich was so good. I took my first bite and couldn't believe my taste buds. You have to give this place a try. The staff is also an amazing bunch!"

WNB Factory

★★★★☆ 3.6 (39) • $$

"The Only Review You Need To ReadWe were leaving an adjacent store when I joked, "We've never tried this place. I looks good!" And my girlfriend said, "Well, I AM hungry." I said, "You want to try it? Because I'll go if you're serious!" So we dropped our bags off in the car, and went back to WNB Factory.Although the menu seemed rather basic (burgers/subs/wings), it took us a couple of minutes to figure out exactly what we wanted. We settled on a six piece order of teriyaki wings for her and I went with the "OG" combo - six inch cheesesteak with lettuce, tomatoes and extra cheese, fries and drink.First thing's first - my girlfriend did not care for the wings. She said they didn't taste like teriyaki, and only ate three. I didn't try them because I'm not into bone-in wings. Too much work for so little reward, in my opinion, so I never bother with wings.As far as my order goes, very good cheesesteak. The cheese they used was this liquid white cheese that made every bite very savory and delicious. They sort of overdid it with the tomatoes, and I would have preferred slices as opposed to chunks (minor quibble). And actually I think an argument could be made that lettuce & tomato don't even belong on an authentic cheesesteak sub, but it's how I ordered it and I enjoyed every bite.The fries were crispy and hot. Actually, everything was piping hot when it was ready - so hot we had to wait a minute to keep from burning our mouths (not a complaint). I really enjoyed my meal and we both agreed that we'd definitely come back to try other things on their menu. I wasn't terribly hungry during this visit, but when I come back, I'll bring my appetite because I'd be interested in trying their Steakburger and chocolate blended milk shake."

Flames & Crepes

★★★★☆ 4.3 (6)

"4.5 Stars for the new food truck in Rockville! Follow the lively Latin American music and you'll find yourself outside the Flames & Crepes food truck!The Halal food truck is located just outside of the Marathon Gas Station and across the street from Flagship Carwash (currently closed for renovation). There is parking available, my family and I got our food to-go as I believe most customers do. I ordered the food via UberEats and it was ready when I arrived.We ordered two Cheesesteaks and I thought they were delicious, they were also pricey... $13.99 each. I did like the Flame Sauce drizzled on the sandwich. The sauce isn't spicy, but it is zesty and it added another flavor profile to the meaty cheesesteak. I also appreciated the thickness of the bread. It definitely held its own, didn't get soggy at all, or fall apart. The only Pupusa we ordered was the VegeMixta and I thought it was unique with ground Loroco Flowerbud being the first ingredient (never had it before and would have thought I was eating green pepper if I didn't know otherwise). I'd be interested in trying the other varieties of Pupusa. The Yuca Fritas came with fried pieces of beef, a cabbage slaw, a few pieces of radishes and cucumbers and a very light and delicious tomato based dipping sauce. I just loved that sauce!!! It was almost like tomato soup, but a lighter take of it (and not warm, like soup is usually. Also was mild in taste, not spicy). I don't know if I'd get the pieces of fried beef again, I wasn't interested in trying them, they looked hard and dried out/tough to chew (they can be excluded from ordering via UberEats menu).We also ordered a Nutella Crepe (the plain crepe is $8.99, and each topping is $0.99 extra). The amount of Nutella in and on the crepe was a generous amount. Just note the prices on the menu on their website are already outdated compared to UberEats, at least for the crepe. It used to be $6.99 and not it is $8.99... Not sure if this is the norm. There is one small picnic table outside of the food truck for anyone interested in eating on location. I feel this food truck will get busier when the Flagship re-opens!"

Maman Joon

★★★★☆ 4.2 (46)

"I was excited to try this new place based on what I read about the DC location. This shop shares a location with Z burger (like a combination KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell) and all the workers and clients are over there. That's the first clue this might not be ideal. So it took awhile to get an employee to grab my take out order, cause of the Z burger thing. Three stars are for just the koobideh, that was moist, perfectly cooked and delicious. The rest lacked. I eat a low sodium diet only cause I don't really like a lot of salt and I can't believe I'm saying this, but please dear God add some salt to the rice. This is probably the worst soggy rice I've ever had and it has the color of saffron, but absolutely zero flavor. Please call your maman joon for a recipe. Salmon kabobs was a tiny portion but had good spice. Baklava was super dry. It would have if they sumac to go with the kabobs. I hope things pick up and the food is improved, I don't see myself going back in the near future."

TJ's Corner Grill

★★★★☆ 4.2 (23) • $$

"Food is good, bartenders are friendly and the drinks are fairly priced. If you LOVE hanging out with really really old dudes. You gonna love this place."

Coopers Tavern

★★★★☆ 4.4 (97) • $$

"I love eating here. I always find myself wanting to come here on a Monday but they are closed so I was finally craving it on a Tuesday, woo hoo! The first time I came here I got the French dip which is really good but since my first time I have repeatedly gotten the California Chicken Sandwich with a side spinach salad. The chicken sandwich isn't too heavy since the chicken is grilled along with other great ingredients (avocado, bacon, tomato, cheese) and all on a delicious ciabatta bread... yum! I'm normally not a bleu cheese fan but their dressing is really good on the salad though I opt for the grated parm cheese instead of bleu cheese crumbles. They make one of my favorite salads in the area.We also split the half and half soup today which as soon as they placed the bowl down, you could smell the old bay in there. Also one of the best half and half crab soups in the area... really good flavor.Other great dishes that my husband has gotten: Club sandwich-- massive but he loves it Cheesesteak-- Garlic or Parmesan fries-- both are good! Mushroom appetizer-- super goodWe usually sit at the bar with the tvs for us to watch sports and always have had wonderful service there. We love this place!"

Smash Up Burgers

★★★★☆ 4.1 (7)

"Deliciousness!!!! I customized a classic double- No lettuce or tomato and add onions sooo yummy! The burger sauce is top notch! True smash burgers not just a thinner patty. They definitely have it figured out. The fries were great as well. Burgers are freshly made so there is a small wait for the yummy-ness!! The team is friendly and the prices are fair. For sure a must try!!"

The Hickory Lodge

★★★★☆ 3.5 (212) • $$

"10/10 recommend!We went on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. There are several seating areas! We have no complaints. The bartender was very helpful and polite! She actually gave recommendations and she did not fail us. The crabby fries were so delicious I forgot to snap a picture. The blueberry bourbon smash isn't on the menu but she had to problem making it for me. Stir fry - made to order and was finger licking goodMeatloaf- the way it was inhaled I knew it was good I can't wait to go back and the try different things"

Famous Lounge

★★★☆☆ 3 (56)

"I recently came here on a Monday for Happy Hour and had a great time. The happy hour menu has both food and drink specials. The drinks are well priced and strong! There are only 5 food items on the happy hour menu. The only thing I had a taste for was the suya but it was a little tough and chewy. I think I'll try the wings next time. It was also karaoke night so that was entertaining to watch. I definitely will be back for Happy Hour soon."

Adeli Express Factory

★★★★★ 4.5 (8)

"This place is fairly new. My coworker and I went . We ordered some wings online and went to pick them up. When we came in the owner Adil was at the register. The place was nice, airy and clean. He asked did we want fries but we declined because we wanted to slow walk it and taste the wings first lol. He then offered us samples of their chicken strips with their special house made sauce. It was SO GOOD! I was mad I ordered wings but I still end up ordering a chicken tender sandwich for dinner lol. While we were waiting he end up giving us a free order of fries with more special sauce, homemade ranch AND 2 large drinks. Everything was very good! Needless to say I accidentally deleted all my pics and videos from that day smh. We went back and Adil wasn't there but that professionalism and kindness was still there from his staff. Food was still good lol. Between the both of us we got chicken tenders, onion rings and a chopped cheese. We just put it all in one picture for this review and just like first time the food was fire! This is our new lunch spot! We'll be back. Thanks Adil!!"

Burger Delite No 5

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (13) • $

"My boyfriend and I stopped here after 3 hours of kayaking at Bladensburg Waterfront Park, so I was pretty famished when we arrived. With a name like Burger Delite, I believe you have to order the burger, so I did. Two people got: two cheeseburgers, large fries, and a coke for less than $12. You can't beat that!The burger was quite good and everything you could want from a cheap burger. Not greasy, good selection of toppings, and a great price. The fries didn't taste salted at all but whatever - we added the salt ourselves. They were great, too.The menu was pretty extensive, but I don't know if I'd stray too far from the burger. That's just me, and I might be missing out, but I will absolutely be back when I'm craving a no-frills burger from an amazingly-priced spot."

Go To Burgers

★★★★☆ 3.9 (47) • $$

"Walked in and could tell right away I was about to eat the best burger of my life. I proved myself right. Amazing food. Even better staff. Make sure you try the House Sauce."

Fried and Fries

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (9)

"Unfortunately - this was a miss for me. Its name suggests that their fired food should be top dog! I ordered their special fish / rice / salad and a side of mozzarella sticks. I was soooo looking forward to the mozz sticks since their name suggests fried foods should be great. I had to send them back twice. The mozz stick were frozen and not cooked all the way. 1 star. Sorry guys. You gotta up your game. Fish and rice was decent. I'd give that a 4 stars. They did get the right on the third try but still from frozen which is disappointing."

The Alley

★★★★☆ 4.4 (12) • $

"Great place to stop after a tour of the US Naval Academy. Plenty of selections to choose from. Quiet, classy without being pretentious. Situated in the same building as the Officers' Club. The staff takes care of attention to detail. You won't need to ask for water glasses to be refilled. Food is prepared to perfection. They won't keep you waiting; The Alley is a well-oiled machine! Relaxed atmosphere with snappy-quick service."

The Sherwood Inn

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (66) • $$

"Great atmosphere, good people, very good food! We had a great Valentine's Day dinner."

Mr. Biscuit

★★★★☆ 3.8 (9)

"Mr. Biscuit in Windsor Mill MD is a new pop up restaurant inside of 1137 seafood. Their menu is simple and the food is so good. Sandwiches are served on biscuits but they are not ordinary biscuits with various toppings. They also sell seasoned fries and macaroni and cheese as sides. They also sell lemonade. The food is really good and flavorful. They are open a few days during the week. There is a wait for orders and you can go to the car while you wait as there is no seating inside. The atmosphere is casual and service is very friendly and fast."

Red Hot & Blue Annapolis

★★★★☆ 4 (396) • $$

"Always my go to for BBQ. Quality food at reasonable prices. Very friendly staff. Take out is always ready on time if you preorder."

Bully Boss Burgers

★★★★☆ 4.1 (48) • $$

"I have mixed feelings about my experience. Felt like low personnel, so will test again.I ordered and rated the following:Cucumber lemonade: 10/10 get itMixed: 7/10 SUPER sweet, cut at home with waterFries: 8/10 seasoned well, good with bully sauceOnion rings: 8/10 a tad bit too much breading, but goodJerk burger: 5/10 the sauce was good, but burger was over cooked. Missing the extra cheese, lettuce and medium egg I asked forCustomer service was very good but slow/misleading. Walked in, was greeted and welcomed, also told my order was being bagged. However took 15 more minutes. I think I caught them on off day so will be giving another chance with more photos."

The Greene Turtle

★★★★☆ 3.5 (28)

"Very friendly staff, nice environment, but clearly understaffed. Had planned to come in for 2-3 beers and some bar food. 40 minutes in, 1 beer and they never even took my food order. Restaurant was 1/3 full on a Saturday night, three spots at the center of the bar where a half drank bottle of beer and napkins wadded up. Looks like whoever was there had left, but unsure. I did hear a group of other patrons in their ugly holiday sweaters asking how long it would take to get their drink orders filled, which is when I decided to cut bait.This was not the staff's fault. Clearly management has radically understaffed the restaurant... Canton Crossing could really benefit from some nightlife options, and Green Turtle could easily fit the bill... but there is a long ways to go before they get there."

Alonso's Restaurant & Package Goods

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (143) • $$

"This is a great little neighborhood find. You have some truly local bartenders that are all quite friendly and attentive. The food (of what I've had) is quite good bar food and generous portions -always enough to bring home for the doggy. The dessert selection is always memorizing and we had several delicious desserts (highly rec the key lime or carrot cake). Pretty good beer/drink selection- only suggestion is to have a beer menu as it's often hard to tell what they have on draft or in cans."

Boardwalk Fries Burgers and Shakes

★★★★☆ 3.9 (15)

"I decided to have a lighter lunch today and figured I'd try out the salad option at Boardwalk Fries in Owings Mills. For ONLY $7.99 I got the pictured salad. It does typically come with cheese and bacon (making it $9.99) but I removed those items. As far as add-ons were concerned, I added green peppers, pickles, and sauerkraut. All of these items are completely free of charge. The service was quick and my order was exactly how I requested. The one thing that stuck out to me was the great portion size. You do get to select a sauce but since ranch was the most dressing similar option, I got that on the side. Overall, tasty salad that I will be getting again. The ambiance was busy, but calm as I dined in for lunch. If you want a cheaper salad option I definitely recommend trying this one out!"

Essex Diner

★★★★☆ 3.8 (47) • $

"Love the essex diner. Great service great food. Fun times all around. Ashley, Michelle s, and the rest of the young ladies are amazing."

Habit Burger & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (56)

"Our new favorite! The fusion of flavors here is remarkable. We could tell each dish was crafted with care, and the presentation was pure art. Add to that the friendly and attentive staff, and it made for an extraordinary dining experience."

Everything Turkey

★★★★☆ 3.7 (15) • $$

"I'm going to keep this simple. I can only speak to the wings but they were the best turkey wings I've ever had. I don't know why it has only 3 1/2 stars because everybody that was in line raved about it too. I had two different flavors - honey chili and old bay-something. It was clearly homemade -- the honey tasted like it came out of my honey jar. It was amazing. Messy though so keep that in mind. Maybe get a dry rub or try a sandwich if you have to eat it in the park :-)"

Capt. Bob's Steamed Crabs

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (39) • $$

"This place certainly isn't at a location where you expect to find crabs, but they do offer quite the selection. We had our bikes on the rail trail and stopped by afterwards for some food. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. The crabs were decent and cooked perfectly. The full rack of ribs was fantastic.Make sure you BYOB."

The Point in Fells

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (561) • $$

"I visited for my daughter's 28th birthday and it was a delight! The bottomless mimosas and the fried deviled eggs were the star of the show. The service was good and the drinks and food were consistently pleasing. The vibes are good and it's pretty spacious upstairs if you have bigger parties. I would definitely go back again for brunch & bottomless!"

Cheesesteak Mikes

★★★★☆ 3.9 (153) • $

"Truly one of the best cheesesteaks in our local area! Everything is so good here! Fried chicken, sandwiches, Korean entrees, etc! Service is top notch, love supporting this family owned small business. This is a MUST try if you haven't already, don't miss out!!"

Steeze Burger

★★★★☆ 4.2 (55)

"I came across Steeze Burger on Instagram during the Summer of 2023. I started following their posts before even trying one of their burgers.A few months after, I attended an event in Damascus, MD and knew their pop-up was going to be at the event. I was determined to try one of their burgers despite a long line at the time. That day I had their Double Burger. Per their pop-up stand, it is described as a 3oz smashed patty, with half steamed onions, American cheese, with pickles on a seeded roll. There is only one sauce: steeze sauce - you will have to ask them what that is.For just a few dollars more I made it a combo which added chips and a drink (water was the other option). Overall, I don't like onions or pickles and requested for them to exclude it. They shared that they could not make any promises but were able to make it with the exclusions. I have learned (moving forward) not to ask for preferences like that when they are really busy.I really enjoyed this juicy burger. The chips were a small bag of Utz potato chips which I have had before and the drink I chose was just a small juice (I can't remember what it was). Overall, I enjoyed the meal.Each week (on Instagram), they post where they will be - it is usually a different location but mostly within Montgomery County, MD. Sundays they are in Gaithersburg, MD unless their schedule shows otherwise.Since the first time I tried their burger, I have been back a few more times, wherever their pop-up takes me. Recently I had one of their burgers with all the fixings, even the onions and pickles - I was missing out.I am always greeted with a friendly face even in times when they are really busy. That is a plus. Check them out sometime.Last enjoyed a Steeze burger - April 2024"

America's Best Wings

★★★☆☆ 3 (41) • $

"Under new management much better product. I stopped going to this location years ago so glad I can come back."

Shake Shack Kentlands

★★★★☆ 3.9 (53) • $$

"7.19.24Burger, fries, lemonade, and frozen custard all five stars. Only wish their portions were larger and that they had combos to be most reasonably priced. They do offer catered boxes of fries and burgers in servings of 12.Orders can be placed at kiosks or the counter. You pick a number at the kiosk and enter it in and the food is brought to your table.They have a pickup area for online and app orders.Service was great. Seating and parking were adequate. Only thing that would have improved my experience was if tables and seating were cleaned off more frequently by staff."

Spizzico Italian Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.8 (200) • $$

"Always good, never too long of a wait, and good customer service. I love the white pizza during the lunch special. I sometimes eat in and other times I carry out. I feel like I get the same great quality regardless."
