a great addition to an already strong burgeoning burger scene here in the city. everything is house made, except the buns. the patty is a strong beef bacon blend, lending it a flavor you don't get elsewhere. the whole table was raving about the fries, which come dusted with an herb seasoning that is immediately (and apparently intentionally) reminiscent of sour cream & onion potato chips. they're a touch thinner than my usual preference, but the strength of that blend made them a hit with me right away. lastly, the service was top notch. i know about the blend because we had a chat with one of the staff who came round to check if we needed refills on our drinks. just all across the board, a place i knew i will go back to again. read more

Ordering is self-serve through a machine and you seat yourself. The service was quick and we got our food hot and fresh. The ambiance feels similar to your modern-style diner with lots of seating options, ranging in different group sizes. The burgers and fries themselves were delicious and large portions. I will knock out a star since I felt like it was a bit overpriced for fast food style burgers but I'd still be willing to come back every once in a while. read more

Be warned now, parking for this location is a challenge of inner city parking. If your up for a challenge than this is definitely the place for you. The food comes out quickly, there are a few options in terms of what type of burger you get. Although this time I didn't get a shake, I definitely will the next time through. Plenty of inside as well as outside seating. Service was prompt and attentive even though it was very busy. Overall this is a trendy type burger joint, but will need to ensure that they mix things up every so often to allow for continued patronage. read more

Solid burger: I especially like the crispy edges. Yummy straight thin crispy fries. The house sauce is tasty too. I like having a beer with my burger. Always too stuffed to try the desserts or shakes, but, one day! Aspirations! Staff is friendly and food gets served up fast! read more

Big Max Burger - Yum! - Burgers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Amazing Burger restaurant! So glad we ran to this place. We had their Big Max Burger and Chicken Sandwich and it was delicious! The big max burger came with two smashed burger and it was tasty and juicy. The burger costed $15 which is a bit pricey, but there was a decent amount of food. The small fries cost $4 and it was pretty good too! Definitely one of the better fries I've had. Chicken sandwich was full of flavor. The only problem was that the fried battered fell apart while eating the sandwich. The ambiance is chill! Plenty of seating and there's even outdoor seating. It's organized and it's just a great place for food and company. The service was good. We had to put on a kiosk. But employees answered our questions when we had any. The food didn't take long to make. Overall, I very much enjoyed this restaurant and I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I got a double burger with only fried onions, Brussels sprouts and a vanilla shake. The burger was good, nice and crispy smash burger. Might've liked more fried onions. The shake was good but not remarkably so. The Brussels sprouts, though, were amazing!! Huge portion but I couldn't help but eat the whole thing. I'll definitely go back for all three. read more

Big Max burger is a great local burger spot. They specialize in smash burgers. I went with some friends before a Mariners game. Although the ordering is done primarily through self serve kiosks, an employee made sure to greet us and told us to let them know if any help was needed. Once the food was ordered, it came out fast! I ordered the popular Big Mac burger and got their seasoned fries and a drink with it (free refills). It was a nice day and they opened up the restaurant to let the nice sunshine come through. Slightly pricier for a typical burger but it hits the spot. read more

I saw Big Max burger's review by a food blogger and came here for lunch. I felt it was waste of my time lol Nothing was so special about this place. I ordered their Chicken burger- Hot Mama Hen and it meh, not like a burger that's worth the ride from where I live in Eastside. The Strawberry shortcake milkshake was good. Definitely not coming back again. read more

Solid burgers! We got the Thomas, Queen Animal, fries, and a strawberry shortcake shake. Great shoestring fries that are always made fresh and sprinkled with some umami seaweed flakes. This time I tried the impossible meat which seemed like a smaller patty, but with the brioche bun and all the fixings literally did not miss a thing. We ate outside because we had our pup with us but overall the ambiance is good! Steady stream of folks, but always available seating. Love how all their utensils are compostable! read more

After being on my radar for a very long time I finally was in the Queen Anne area to give Big Max Burger a try and I am very happy to say that it exceeded expectations. I ordered the Big Max Burger, which is an accurate name as it is a very large burger. Through and through this is a very good burger with quality ingredients. Definitely one of the best burgers I have had in the Seattle area. I also tried the chicken nuggets which were the most unique chicken nuggets I have had, the crispiest, most fresh, and largest nuggets I've ever had. If you are a fan of chicken nuggets, it's worth coming here for those alone in my opinion. Looking forward to coming back next time I am in the area to try the rest of the menu. read more

I saw Big Max Burger on several "Best Seattle Burgers" rankings and had to check it out. Both my friend and I got the Big Max Burger (their signature burger) and a side of fries. The two patty burger also came with cheese, lettuce, pickles, and grilled onions, with their max sauce on the bun. The burger was good, but I wouldn't put it up there with the best I've had in Seattle. The fries are tossed in dill, these were very tasty by themselves and when dipped in the sauce. I went on a nice sunny day and we sat on the patio which I really liked. If it were a rainy day the inside dining area looked fine, but a little cramped. The staff were kind and the service was quick, overall this was a positive. Generally, this was a good not great spot and I wish I could give like a 3.5 star review. It is a solid spot though if you are in the area. read more

For me personally, this is a great burger. 8/10. I enjoy thin, crispy patties. Some people like them thicker. If your preference is similar to mine, you must try this place! I also really like that you can order just one patty here, which hits the spot for me without feeling too heavy. And if you prefer it meatier, get two patties. They have a few different choices for toppings and sauces, and their fries are very thin, crispy, and heavily seasoned. There's not much ambience here, as it's a pretty sterile, old-fashioned diner style, but it's great for a quick meal. read more

Oh freak! This burger makes the big Queen Anne hill worth it! So yummy!! They've got a small menu, makes ordering easy. You can order at the counter with cash at at a touch screen kiosk with card! We got the Queen Animal burger and a large fry. Burger was classic big juicy burger. You can't go wrong here! Barbecue gave it nice sweet taste Fries were seasoned to perfection. They gave us so many sauces and trust me you will go through them. read more

This is a darn good smash burger. It's larger than most smash burgers - but not thicker - it's thin and deliciously crispy with the right amount of burger to condiment and bun ratio. The burger is made out of beef and bacon, which makes it extra delicious with a deeper flavor profile than many burgers. Fries are thin and crispy like - well honestly - a good McDonald's fry, and I say that as a compliment. I sat at a counter looking out on the street - this is a quick food place so expect to go in, order at a iPad or the counter, and sit down for a quick bite. Place is clean and bright. I do wish they had non dairy milkshakes but there is plenty to have without that! read more

Big Max Burger - The Thomas Burger and fries - Burgers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Big max offered me some options. The burger bearing their name is huge and heavy on vinegary mustard and pickles. It's a big bear hug from something like a cross between a Dicks deluxe and a Dairy Queen burger only nicer than both. The burger came out fast so don't try to cross the street while you wait like I did or it will get cold. The Caesar salad is nothing special but I'm at least nominally trying to watch my calories/carbs so it's better in my mind than the fries. I'm led to believe the shakes are good but I haven't had one yet. Some day... The people watching on Queen Anne is nice and the staff are friendly and helpful. I advise against using the kiosks in the front; go talk to someone! The only things I can say against the burger is that it is just too big and it punches hard read more

Was really excited to try Big Max burger. Burgers were so crazy greasy I didn't taste greasy, but the packaging was actually sopping wet from the grease. The patty itself is dry. The Sammy slider is truly tiny. The chicken nuggets were inedible. They were basically a little balls of grease and the breading was so soggy from the grease. It was so disgusting. Ample seating and there's great parking underneath Bartels and the elevator opens right up into big Max. So so expensive. They charged crazy amounts to add simple things like two tiny pickle slices. So weird. Expect around $20 for a burger alone. read more

Wow! Very impressed with this burger place. Everything we ate was fantastic. I did a custom burger. One patty was perfect size. Large fries was huge. We were two people and had lots leftover. And they have this great seasoning on them. The boozy strawberry shortcake milkshake was SO good. We also got the chicken nuggets and they were great. You can order at the computer kiosk or at the counter. Lots of different sauce options. But they do charge 50 cents each. They've got a bar, beers, wine. Highly recommend if you're looking for a burger in Queen Anne! read more

Like a lot of other people I saw this trend on social media a little bit so I wanted to see for myself if the hype was real. I didn't try the burger but the chicken nuggets were insane. The ranch gives me a mediterranean vibe and the sweet and sour is a slightly better version of McDonalds. The fries were honestly solid and the herbs they put on it made a big difference. The service was great too! I'm only knocking off a star because the nuggets were very oily and seeped through the bag. read more

This is my favourite burger place in Seattle! Being gluten free and dairy free it can be super hard to find a place that does good burgers AND can cater to my dietary needs but Big Max manages to do both!! I most recently had takeout - I always get the Thomas burger with fries and Brussel sprouts. You can't miss our on the sprouts! They are absolutely delicious (I swear I dream of them!). The service is always great, quick and not super expensive either! If you choose to dine in, the relaxed vibe is a perfect fit! I highly recommend going here if you're fixing for a good burger. read more

I believe this is the first smash burger I've ever had. I have say I understand why it is currently a craze. I've never had a burger that is part bacon, but the crispiness of the outside of the patties is a revelation. I've come never to expect greatness from a shoestring fry, but the herb salt is a nice touch. Minimal service as you order off a tablet when you enter, that said they were definitely friendly. Clean on the inside. Come in if you're craving a sweet burger! read more

WTF were they thinking with this name? It's not that funny but it is quite a peculiar choice. Anyway. In short: Good burgers, incredible fries, and a cool selection of drinks for a burger joint. In long: This is one of those new mixed-residential buildings with businesses along the streets at ground level. Nice little patio, big signage. It's not overly large inside, and they didn't do anything over-the-top with the decor, but building it out must have cost a pretty penny. You can order on an ipad by the door, or from a human a few feet farther in at the counter. The staff here doesn't quite have a frat vibe, but it's younger dudes, probably from the neighborhood, so there's a definite preppy personality to the room. Friendly, well-caffeinated. The menu is kinda short--couple burgers, sandwiches, the fries, couple other things. They have wine slushies, boozy milkshakes, and other drink choices (including fountain sodas, naturally). We both had the Thomas burger, which is great. Kind of a flattop smashburger, it has those nice crispy edges. Toppings are built up with a good backyard cookout approach--nice slices of fresh veg, still crunchy and with plenty of flavor. Chewy soft bun. The fries, though! Crispy, light, greaseless shoestring fries, dusted over with herbed salt. They mentioned they can add a little extra garlic to the mix on request, which is probably the call. And a "large" here is about the size of a kid's lunch bag, not the little pocket that most servings come in. We ordered one large for two of us, went crazy devouring them, and still had more than half an order after left after we got full. So damn good, and such a generous portion. The wine slushy was fine, and I had fountain iced tea, which was perfect (and ought to be impossible to mess up). We were out the door for 2 burgers, one fry, 2 drinks, and tip for $60. Kind of a splurge, but a great early dinner. read more

The fried CHICKEN Sandwich is probably the best fried chicken sandwich I've had. It was perfectly crispy on the outside and tender and moist on the inside. It was flavorful and I just loved every single bite of it. Came back here another time for their burger and that was pretty solid too. Their shakes are good but I wish they had more variety in flavor. I like how they have the weekly special flavors but unfortunately, once the week is passed, you can't get those special flavors anymore. Their regular flavors are more plain. (Suggestion box: something with peanut butter please?) Their fries were alright. I definitely will be back for their chicken sandwich and willing to try even more stuff on the menu. I enjoy their atmosphere and being able to eat outdoors on a nice day is excellent. read more

Burger patty was literally so thin you could barely see it. It was 50 dollars total for two small shakes, two burgers, and one fry. For that much money I should be able to at least see my burger patty. Such a scam. The shakes were good. Not worth the money. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this place! Great quality smash burger with fresh ingredients and yummy sauce options. Friendly servers, though most service is self-serve (kiosk and self-bussing station). I wish the lettuce were sliced and not chopped since I think it'd add more refreshing-ness to the overall bite and wouldn't fall out so much. I also think the patty itself could be seasoned more, but they really nailed the crispy edges on the patty and bun! Fries were just okay for me and the prickly pear slushie was also just ok. I thought portion size was fair. Will be back! read more

The burger here was sooo juicy. I did think the sauce was too much on my big Max Burger. But it was still good. The hot mama hen burger was perfect. Very crispy and juicy. Sauce was perfect too. I very much enjoyed the Tillamook strawberry milkshake. It was thick but not too thick. read more

Was so impressed by the service here on my recent visit. The team makes a point to let you know about free refills and literally offers to refill for you when they walk by, even though it's not full service. I couldn't carry things because I had my baby in my stroller so they carried things over for me. I know these are small things, but I feel like when you go to a fast-ish food place the employees often aren't engaged or happy. This team was both and it just made for such s pleasant experience. Thank you all for that! And the food is good so I would happily go back!! read more
