CAUTION!! The food here is ridiculously good, but VERY messy, just like a great hamburger should be! Get lots and lots of napkins. You're going to need them! CAUTION!! The burgers in the pictures appear MUCH smaller than the actual burgers! These things are HUGE, definitely not for the faint of heart (or small appetites)! Do yourself a favor and don't miss out on Big Sky Burgers in Lakewood. This wasn't just a meal, it was an experience! Come hungry. Leave happy. And grab extra napkins! read more

Got the spicy pork burger and it was absolutely incredible. The nuance and depth of spice was stunning and something that felt very unique. Spice level was great and the temp of the burger was perfect. Great pairing of vegetables and kimchi, fries did not feel like an afterthought either. Will 100% be back soon! Cute little joint to spend a lunch with some friends and the owner is super nice and willing to share all about how the restaurant came to be and where his inspiration comes from. Thank y'all! read more

Heard and seen a lot of good things about this place. Came in and got a couple of burgers to go. Prices seem a little high for their burgers. Almost $15 for a single burger. Granted they are decently big, but the flavor and quality seem to be lacking. I'd still like to give this place another try, but I think I'll skip the burgers next time. read more

The place is small, so getting a table can be a bit of a challenge, but not impossible. We managed to snag one by arriving right at 6 on a Friday night. Once we ordered, it seemed like things would go smoothly, but we ended up waiting about 40 minutes for the burgers and another 5-10 minutes for the fries after that. Not much to rave about that takes 40 plus minutes to make. Meanwhile, the comments floating around from the manager or owner were that they were busy and trying to figure out where all the orders have to go to. I understand staffing challenges, but that's not something you say out loud in front of customers. It comes across as unprofessional. It also felt like orders were coming from every direction--dine‑in, online, takeout--and I get that it can be overwhelming. But if fulfilling online orders means the people sitting in the restaurant are getting the short end of the stick, it might be worth pausing online orders temporarily to catch up. Now, onto the food. The burgers were ok. This was my first time here, and they looked great in the photos I saw online--nice and plump--but the meat was a little dry. The generous toppings made for a pretty messy eating experience, though I did enjoy the blue cheese paired with the rest of the ingredients. The fries were good. They were crispy and came with ranch, and there were plenty of other condiments available--Red Hot, ketchup, sriracha, and more--to customize things. Overall, it feels like they need to focus on one thing and do it really well. The menu is ambitious, offering everything from burgers to ramen, Thai curry, and fried rice, and that might be stretching the kitchen too thin. I hope they find their rhythm, because with a little more consistency, this place could have a future. read more

Came here because after searching this was known to be one of the best burger spots in Lakewood. When I got there I was told the wait would be 45 minutes but I didn't mind because we figured it would be worth it. When we got our burgers the first thing we noticed were that they were HUGE. We were shocked at how big they were. Overall, the burgers were OKAY. I wouldn't say they were the best. read more

Best burger experience in the last five years. I simply cannot remember the last time I had a burger that was this good not this large. The burgers are absolutely huge. I can't eat one in a single sitting. This is a small, Korean owned, fusion Korean/burger place. And as such, is unique and absolutely worth checking out. I cannot recall having a burger that was good it made me smile. John, world class manager, welcomed us in the second we walked through the door. He gave us the run down of the menu and his personal recommendations. I ordered the jalapeño burger and it was delicious. Others in my party ordered the bulgogi burger and the blue cheese burger. Both were elated with this meals. I ordered a chocolate shake for the road and it was exceptional. It had an old school throwback burger diner feel to and I loved it. Very colorful. There is great outdoor seating as well. This place is a huge hit and rest assured, we will be back. Thank you John, for making out lunch a new experience in fusion food and treating us so well. read more

I can't gush about the food here enough! We had just finished a hike at Mt Falcon, and although the exterior looks a little like an old school A&W, the food more than makes it worth it! Sam, the owner, was super friendly and loved talking about all the work that goes into the restaurant. He told us how they prepped 2,000 goyza a week, soaked their lettuce for an hour, and other little tidbits that really told us how much he loved food. My husband had the bulgogi burger, which was the best thing on the table. The bulgogi had this savory sauce that was the perfect addition to the beef. I had the kimchi burger, which I would have loved had I not tried my husbands (we regularly compete over who picks the best meal- he won!). Our friend got the jalapeño burger and said it was the best burger he ever had. Really, you can't go wrong. The burgers are the size of your face (I had to use a knife and fork because it didn't fit in my mouth) so don't be afraid to share! We also had the sweet potato fries, which were served with ranch and delicious. The goyza were stellar and perfectly cooked- these are NOT the frozen ones you make at home. Highly, highly recommend. So unique, so delicious. read more

We were so bummed out that this didn't live up to the reviews The service was very friendly. We ordered the Big Burger and Sky burger, fries and a chocolate shake and a strawberry shake. We went and sat outside to wait for our food. About ten minutes later our fries are brought out to our table. We thought the rest was coming out also. But ten more minutes go by and they bring our shakes out. Then another ten minutes and our burgers show up. Both burgers looked impressive. When it came to flavor they lacked. There was gristle in the meat and the meat was dry with no flavor. There was no way to eat it and have it not fall completely apart. The chocolate shake was good but the strawberry shake barely tasted like strawberry. We won't be back for burgers but want to come back and try the Asian food. read more

Ohh, my word, this is the best burger, I've had in years. And the best pot stickers, I know that sounds crazy. If you like asian food and hamburgers, this is the place for you. Traditional burgers, delicious wings, pot stickers, rice bowls, and they have a little bit of everything. The service was amazing. This is family owned and operated. They have outside seating. And an air conditioned inside. You guys can't go wrong. Give it a try. If you like what you see follow me. read more

As someone who isn't enthusiastic about burgers, I was confused as to why I had bookmarked Big Sky but then I was reminded that it was a burger place with Korean flavors. This is one of the best burgers I have had in Colorado. You get so much food for your buck but everything is rich in flavors. The bulgogi burger was delicious. The wings were so good especially the bbq sauce. It's sweet but tangy - I don't know how to describe it. So glad there's an Asian burger joint in this state. The place can look a little run down. There's limited seating indoors and some outdoor seating. If you need to use the restroom, go out to the back. Don't judge a place before you try the food. Service is friendly and food comes quick. read more

This was an amazing place to get a burger. My husband loved the kimchi burger and I had one of the greatest cheeseburgers ever! The fries were so nice and crispy.

Big Sky Burger surprised me in the most positive way! Starting with the burgers, the fresh ingredients are fresh (I know, shocking!) and the portions are appropriate for the asking price. When you factor in unique flavors - such as the bulgogi burger - now you're talking value for money. The service is also great though it's a small team taking care of the orders. I appreciate the associate that takes your order and then drops off your food at the table. And space is small and you might need to wait or sit outside, but this is part of the charm in my opinion. If you're not a fan of burgers, well, then you have the Asian food options that are also quite good! :-) read more

Come hungry and you'll have a great experience here. The burgers have a 7oz patty which seems so huge in my opinion. I love burgers but couldn't quite finish all that. They have a good selection of burger options on their menu, along with classic burger sides like fries, sweet potato fries, tots, onion rings. Two of us shared 1 order of onion rings and each ordered a burger, and that was plenty! If you done in, they have a plethora of sauces available to use (ketchup,mustard, BBQ, Sriracha mayo, hot sauces). We got the mushroom burgers which were delicious! Just get ready to eat quickly or use fork and knife because the juices from the mushrooms and onions make the burger get soggy pretty quickly while you're eating. You can tell from the outside but there's limited seating inside so may be a better option for pickup ordering, but 2 of us had no problem getting a table on a weeknight. The guy doing orders was super friendly! Definitely enjoyed the experience and would go back again, might try some of the non-burger menu options next time read more

Big Sky Burger - Mushroom Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

It's a tasty, small, family run burger joint. They have both burgers and fries as well as Korean dishes. They make their bulgogi sauce in house and it shows. Commercial, bottled sauces tend to be overly sweet and thick. Their sauce has better balance and is more savory. I made the mistake of getting the bulgogi burger with cheese. The American cheese slices detracts from the burger. I also made the mistake of eating before taking a pic of the bulgogi bowl, so it originally had more food. We also ordered the beef gyoza (pot stickers). They were solid except we couldn't finish all of the food we ordered and took some home. I don't think the gyoza will be as good the next day, but the bulgogi bowl should be fine. The entrees came out before the side (the gyoza), but this is a fast food burger joint so I don't expect food to be delivered in the perfect order. Instead, they gave us the dishes as soon as they were cooked. read more

Read some amazing reviews and saw some amazing pics. I tried just the Classic cheeseburger and my friend had the jalapeno burger. We also had fries and tots. 2 burgers, fries and tots and 2 soft drinks with tax and tip was 48.00. I really did not love the taste of the burger and while it looked delicious, I felt like the meat was a little too peppery. I would like to go back and try some Korean dishes next time read more

Oh boy. This place = awesomeness. The burgers are HUGE. They do not come with a side for good reason. If you really need sides make sure you share! Ordering a burger + side = too much. Loved the onion rings and the big sky burger had "a little bit of everything" that makes the burger amazing-jalapenos, carmelized onions, thousand island thick cut tomatoes and lettuce. If you don't like fresh lettuce ask to omit because it is crisp and large leafed-no skimping here. I loved The Big Sky only slightly more than the bacon blue-cheese burger that was rich creamy and delicious. I am going back for more burger deliciousness. Cannot wait to try it all! They make kimchee there and have Korean non burger options as well. Great friendly staff. Glad I didn't miss this joint! The burgers will not disappoint! Voted Westword Best Burger in Lakewood for a reason--I would say in the Metro Area over all! Yum! read more

This place has an identity crisis. It's called Big Sky Burgers, but inside and out the windows are covered with posters of Korean food. And they are setup like a fast food restaurant, but the quality of their meals is anything but "fast food." We heard the burgers were good so we made a point to stop by and check them out. I looked through the descriptions of the different burgers and decided on a simple cheese burger. It was anything but simple. It was a good-sized burger with what amounted to a side salad added between the bun. I was hungry, but apparently I wasn't hungry enough because I couldn't finish all of it. I did finish the burger patty because it wasn't the usual burger-joint quality. It was made from Angus beef like we buy for ourselves when we make burgers at home. The lettuce and tomato were fresh, but simply too much extra food to finish. Part of the reason I lost my appetite before I completed the meal was that I ordered a basket of their crispy fries. They were hot and perfectly seasoned so I might have made a meal out of them before my burger showed up. Whatever my excuse is, the end results is I enjoyed a very delicious, fresh, quality burger and fries before I had to throw in the napkin. Maybe next time I'll skip a few meals before I try their burger again, 'cause I'm not skippin' their fries. Some other things you should know about this place. ============================================ -- It is not the same restaurant that you'll read about in the one-star reviews. The salad bar is gone and they have a public rest room. -- The owner is a foodie so every menu item is meticulously prepared to bring his customers the best quality and flavor. He cooks each dish like he is making them for his family. -- This place seems to have a lot of regulars so it gets packed at lunchtime. I saw the owner greeting people by name, immediately knowing what they wanted to order and there were many fist-bumps between him and the people streaming in for lunch. read more

Always the best! Excellent food and customer service! While an older building they keep it sooo clean! Love it!

The owner of the place instead of being welcoming as first time, customers insulted me about my nails. Furthermore, the hamburgers had no taste absolutely as far as the hamburger patties. To top everything off when I went to the bathroom, which is located at the back of the building connected to the kitchen, I saw a very clean kitchen. read more

How many burger joints do you have to decide what kind of burger to order? This is one!! The " basic" or Big Burger comes out fully 6 inches tall, half pound patty, tomato, onion, mushroom, pickles, lettuce and a perfectly toasted bun, as close to heaven as most people get. The fries are so far past amazing it's not fair to other fries. They offer homemade kimchi which is just freaking killer good. They have very limited seating inside, but seem to do a brisk call in business. Do yourself a great big favor and order something from this place, you WILL NOT be disappointed. read more

Oh my gosh it was soooo good! I wasn't sure what to expect but it did not disappoint. The owner was super sweet and kind. I had the bulgogi burger and it was 10/10. The flavor was so rich. My mom had the chicken burger, equally amazing and my dad the cheeseburger. It was such an unexpected fusion of Asian and American flair. It's super tiny inside, maybe four tables, but clean and bright. Oh I almost forgot how excellent the fries were too! Definitely recommend trying it out read more

Been here once before. Picked up my MIL's birthday dinner. The young man behind the counter was very friendly and helpful! Got the bacon blue cheese burger and my partner and MIL got the big sky burger. We also got tots, fries, and wedges. Everything here is fresh, loaded, and delicious! If you're looking for a review to convince you, trust me it's worth it. It's a small restaurant, but has good seating and is very calm. read more

For the price, you can't go wrong with anything from their menu. We started off with the gyoza and I was impressed. My mom makes the best dumplings and I'm usually under impressed by what restaurants offer. Here, their gyozas are of Korean style: the filling consists of ground beef and glass noodles. It was slightly pan fried so very juicy without hard edges (direct result of over frying the skin). I wanted to come because of the burgers. I had to try the outrageous one which swims in melty cheese and has a fried egg. All those extra elements were fantastic. However, the patty was not the best. It was over cooked and had too much pepper. That usual is to disguise the fact that the quality is subpar. We also tried the bulgogi bento box. Now that is two meals in one! So much food! I enjoyed the taste of it. Just the perfect amount of sweet and salty, and grease! So good with white rice. I would like to come back and try the other Korean specialties like the wings and ribs. Not sure if the friendly guy who worked behind the counter is the owner. He speaks cantonese which takes the whole experience home! read more

Wonderful fresh made food with generous portions and a great variety of different types of food. Friendly caring, efficient staff.

Great service and the Pueblo burger was great! I am really sorry that this place is going to close!

Came here visiting family and this was a slam dunk of a stop. The location is very unassuming for the quality that you get. I ordered the Sky Burger, which was both tasty AND massive. The owner was chill and insightful in helping us decide our order. He convinced us to get one order of fries to share for the three of us and I'm so glad he did! I'm picky when it comes to fries but these were definitely the best I've ever had: perfectly seasoned and amazingly crisp exterior with fluffy interior. Will be making this a regular visit whenever I'm back in town! read more

Fantastic food, great location, and the owner is very cool. Big fan of the wings and burgers.

This place is awesome! The owner running the counter and taking orders was very friendly and clearly excited about the food. The options are a fun mix of asian and burger joint options. The portions were huge, delicious, and made fresh to order. I got the Sky Burger and could only finish 1/2, my buddy got the Big Burger and I am going to try that next time. Fries and wings were solid. We will be back! read more
