BurgerFi (Lauderdale by the Sea)
***** BurgerFi, 4343 North Ocean Drive, Lauderdale by the Sea 33308, (954) 489-0110.
Walked into this free-standing “fast food” burger joint last Saturday night—and immediately new that I was going to love it. The easiest way to describe BurgerFi–Shake Shack (see 8/1/10 review) meets Five Guys Famous Burgers (see 11/2/06 review) with indoor and outdoor “picnic table seating.”
Let me make this real simple…one of the best fast-food cheeseburgers and hand cut fries that I’ve had in a very long time.
At this stage of the proceedings, check www.burgerfi.com for menu/prices/photos.
I am telling you, if burgers and fries are your game, you are absolutely gonna love this joint.
As a 1949 “baby” I think I know a thing or two about the fast-food-burger industry. Trust me on this, old Jeff Eats has eaten his fair share of burgers and fries.
I think I know exactly what BurgerFi is “trying” to do here…The joint’s decor looks like a roadside fast-food burger joint circa 1950’s/1960’s with some-modern touches…throw in “gourmet” burgers and “upscale” fries-other stuff…and BurgerFi’s got all of the bases covered. It’s cooler looking than Five Guys but cheaper than the “upscale” full service-burger restaurants that are currently America’s latest craze.
Check Burgerfi’s site, there are a handful of pictures which will give you some idea as to what I am yapping about here.
Like I said before, if you like burgers, fries, hot dogs, custard…you’ll love this joint.
BurgerFi is open 7 days a week 11am-1am.
like you i love a good burger and fries,
i really don’t care for shake shack,
i do like five guys,
had never heard of this one.
definitely going to give it a shot.
wow. I hated the burgers. Like cardboard.
I’ve been here a few times- love it
winning formula.
cool decor and great food.
this one is much better than either shake shack or 5 guys,
I ate there today. It’s delicious. I decided to try the veggie burger after going a few times and having the regular burgers. Best veggie burger I’ve ever had and even better followed up with a strawberry shake.
Jeff, definitely one of your best picks. had lunch there and its great. you are right it is a retro looking shake shack with 5 guys type food.
Awesome burgers.
This is one cool place.
My family went last night after reading about it and we had a great time. We loved the burgers and fries and shakes. We would highly recommend BurgerFi.
Great burger and fries. Loved the shakes.
jeff, heard they are opening a second location on atlantic in delray.
delicious burgers and fries and onion rings.
the sign board is very confusing.
Tried it yesterday.
When my son and I got there yesterday about 3pm there were 4 people on line. The ordering went very slowly. To our amazement there was a second line for shakes only which had no one on it. The girl at that line indidnt tell people on our line to come up to her. She stood there for 10 minutes while we waited to order. Score customer service ZERO.
We got our food. For 1 drink, and 2 cheeseburgers and fries/onion rings the bill was almost $18. The single burgers were good but small. The fries were good. The onion rings are huge with way too much breading on them. Score food 8 out of 10.
The owners have erected a horrible black and green sign board. It is very confusing and hard to read.
We made the trip once, maybe if we were on the block we would go again, but no way is it wortha special drive.
thought it was very good.
cool decor and good food.
a bit different style wise.
lousy service. terrible line setup. the signage stinks, hard to figure out what food is, burgers and fries delicious.
horrendous ordering system. good burgers and fries.
2nd loc just open in delray.
ggod brgs and fries
sorry jeff, nothing special going on here
burgers and fries were delicious.
Ate in the one in delray. Liked the burger. Loved the ff.very good find here.
Ate in coral springs store which is on university. Had a single burger with cheese and ff also had a coke. Food was ok but at 10 bucks a bit pricey for what I got.
very confused counter staff.
food ok but not greatest.
that coke machine with all the flavors is cool but kids were playing around when i was there and it took me 5 minutes to get a soda. not a good idea with that machines.
Tried delray outpost. Very good burger and fries.
ate in coral springs. had burger and fries. nothing great.
really enjoyed Delray Beach store.
good burgers and fries.
Like you I also liked the Delray spot.
I also like the new HiWay Burgers that recently opened on Fed Highway/Atlantic in Delray. Personally, I think HiWay’s burgers and ff are better than BurgerFi.
delicious burgers,ff and shakes.
not too many are better
Ate in Delray this evening. Cheeseburger and ff were excellent.
love its burgers and ff.
Too confusing a setup.
Food is ok but not great.
Love BurgerFi.
BurgerFi is the best.
Five Guys etc no match.
BurgerFi in Coral Springs on University is great.
This place makes terrific burgers and ff.
Great burgers and fries. They also have a chocolate cupcake that is amazing.
Love the Delray Beach on A1A. Great burgers, ff and shakes.
Ate in Delray today. Burger is very mushy and ff very salty.
I tried Burger Fi in Delray off of Atlantic and loved the burger/ff. I liked it better than 5 Guys and Shake Shack,
Me too.
Love BirgerFi.
