Go Burger

SO GOOD! This burger is just as good if not better than Shake Shack or Five Guys and it’s way more relaxed. The meat is charred very nicely like a backyard grill and the buns were toasty and buttery. I usually go for swiss but the american cheese sauce made me feel like a kid again. Writing this review makes me want to go back. Also if you like plants (like me) the plant district is right around the corner. Load up on some plants after the burger. Oh yeah and the vidalia onion rings were sweet, savory and cripsy!

After 5 guys wasted my lunch break by not having my call ahead order ready… I decided to try this place. back at my desk starving and weak… the menu and reviews looked good. I place my order and I hear a voice in the back ground say «its a $ 20 min for delivery» whaaat? Who does that? First of all im only four blocks away. I even pleaded with the guy telling him my five guys sob story! If I had time left to run there I wouldve! But come on! im already spending $ 12 you cant deliver 4 blocks? Go burger can Go to H. E. Double hockey sticks! I work for a Huge company and couldve gotten you guys future orders because everyone listens to me when it comes to food. welp you guys lost out! Ill be sure to spread the word!

Clean spot to grab lunch in the W. 30s. Burger was tasty, but could use some girth. Good fries.

Let’s start with the pros:
–You get a LOT of skinny fries for $ 3. They’re pre-​salted and crispy (I thought they were better than Five Guys’… at least the disappointing FG’s on 34^th street and Shake Shack’s, which I’m not a fan of).
–Almost nobody in store, quick phone order.
–The Philly burger really hit the spot for my burger craving. The burger was cooked closer to medium-​well, as opposed to places like FG.
–Guys at the counter and manning the grill are nice enough.
Now the cons:
–After eating an entire box of the fries, you realize how much salt you just consumed. Sodium overload.
–The burgers do not look appetizing AT ALL.
–On the Philly burger, there were maybe two jalepenos. The patty also wasn’t that big.
Basically, for only $ 10 – 11, you can nab you a decent burger and fries. I wouldn’t go out of my way for lunch here, but it’s better than some of the other alternatives.

Dry, tiny patties and wet buns. Fairly tasteless as well. If you double the meat, you are nearly @ $ 20 with a side.

«Wow, you’re planning to go to shake shack in times sq on a saturday at lunchtime? Forget that overhyped crap. You should go down a few blocks, to this little place called Go Burger. Trust me, one bite and you’ll never go back.
«When you walk in, there will be no one there. Almost like the place isn’t open but someone forgot to lock its doors. Don’t worry, it’s supposed to be like that to confuse tourists.
«When you get to order, you could get a burger, but, I mean, it’ll be overcooked and barely taste like beef. Yeah, you’d expect the burger to be good, y’know with the name and all. Meh. Instead, ask for a smack in the face, it’s free and less painful than the burger.»
–My advice to friends visiting
Ok, so it’s not that bad. Burgers are overcooked, but they have some semblance of beefy flavor. Think something between McDonald’s and Five Guys. Yes, Five Guys is a better burger, even if they cook all their patties well done.
The fries are good. Let’s face it, it doesn’t take a culinary savant to cook decent fries.
If you’re considering this place at all, man it up and wait the hour for shake shack. If your life is full of disappointment and you want that final straw to push you over the edge, this place is great.
Things to try: Fries (sad that this is the only thing I can recommend)
Things that are ok: Soda
Things to avoid: Burgers

Like casa nonna, this is a hole in the wall location, and you’d probably miss it if you were walking by.
Every time I’ve walked by here it’s been dead.
The burger is pretty good and you don’t deal with the larger crowds at shake shack or burger joint.
BTW, on the receipt there’s a tip area and I asked the employee if we’re supposed to tip and she said no, that they don’t get any of it. It makes sense — you don’t tip at shake shack, right?

Good burger, excellent sweet potato fries. Shakes are small and pricey but thick thick thick and taste great. Small limited menu, done to order. Not cheap but even the greaseball fast food joints are up-​in-​price for their better burgers.
No fancy-​ness here, just a better than average fresh and quick meal. Hot dogs sounded good, did not try them, but if you’re a «frank lover» this place has several choices of em.
Went on a Friday, no one there, not the easiest place to find unless you know about it, go into Casa Nonna and hook a right.
I’d put it right in place with Five Guys and the likes of Smashburger.
Worth a visit.

There’s something to be said for simple food prepared well. The menu at Go Burger is limited — a couple burger options, a couple hot dogs, some sides, fountain sodas, and shakes. Nothing fancy, but it’s delicious. The burgers are juicy, not greasy. Sweet potato fries and onion rings are similarly well done — not at all greasy. Perfect way to satisfy my fast food cravings.
It’s easy to miss this place if you’re just walking down the street — it’s actually inside another restaurant, Casa Nonna. We had to look up the building number in order to find it. And yes, there’s a bit of a wait for the food — just one fry cook — but whatever. I think they do take out and delivery, so you can always call ahead. Also a tad pricey for burger and sides (~$ 15 for burger, side, and a drink), but it’s worth it. Will most certainly swing by again when I’m in the area.

This place has great burger and the best fries I have had in a long time. Everything is done fresh, no big lines and they cook right there in front of you so you know when it’s done!
I love their fries and the burger. I would come back for sure!
