    Best first bite!!  I love the burger (& lobster rolls).
    Jackie U.

    I travel to LES quarterly and always stop at Blue Road Burger. All of the food is amazing. The restaurant is clean and the staff is awesome.

    Mushroom Swiss Burger
    Jack M.

    Good burger. Friendly service. Clean place. The beef blend was good quality. The bun was soft and chewy and nicely toasted. The pickles and mustard felt like overkill for the flavor profile of the mushroom swiss burger. I'd say keep one or the other. Not both. The acid overpowered the steak sauce. Overall a generally good burger and good experience. Needs some slight improvement.

    Boogie burger with gluten free bun

    The Boogie Burger from this place is hands down the best burger I've ever had. They have some kind of magical blend of meats that is just perfect. Adding steak sauce to mushroom & swiss was a stroke of genius. Plus, the owner Max is a total mensch and will take great care of you, including giving you a gluten free bun if needed. :)

    French Fries

    TLDR nothing special and probably not worth a trip by, but it's definitely not bad. Ordered a burger and fries from here and was a little disappointed by what I got. The burger didn't really taste seasoned, it was like you needed to rely on the other ingredients to give it flavor. The brioche bun is also super sweet. I know some people like that but I'm not the biggest fan. It felt a little overpowering for the burger and just wasn't my favorite. It's not a burger I would order again. The fries were pretty good though. Well seasoned and well cooked. The staff were friendly, just slow. It took ~25 to get my order, which is kinda long considering there was only one other person there. The place itself was clean and quiet. Nothing exciting but nothing bad either. Just a mediocre burger place in general considering how much other good food there is around. Don't stay away, but don't go out of your way.

    Get all your favorite cravings in one stop at Blue Road! They have delicious smash burgers, chicken sandwiches and lobster rolls. Don't miss out on dessert -- fried Oreos are legit delicious and made to order! It's in the heart of the LES so perfect for day time or late night munchies! Small spot, easy to order at the counter and nice and friendly staff!

    Sooo this place is open late and service is fast. It's no a burger to write home about but if you need a little bite when bar hopping it works.

    Chicken sandwich

    This is a new fantastic fast casual but quality eats restaurant in Nyc. Quick,affordable counter eats on the Lower East Side. Everything we ate was too die for. This is the good food you seek out and get in NYC. Coming soon there will be beer & wine 1. Maine Lobster Roll 2. Blue Road Burger 3. Chicken Sandwich 4. All the sauces were amazing. 5. Hand cut fries 6. Onion rings 7. Fried Oreos I met a couple visiting from Europe who said it was so good , they ate here twice already in a week. All the burgers are outrageous they said. We love this place.

    Incredible Hot Momma Burger! Absolutely loved the flavors and freshness.

    Blue Road Burger joint was exactly what was needed before heading back to Long Island. I ordered the Hot Momma Burger & Tots and they were prepared quickly and very reasonably priced for the city. The place has a cool vibe and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Wish I lived closer!

    This is THE burger spot in the city. Such a GEM! For sure on my must-haves in NYC. Incredible burgers, fun house sauces, and awesome services, good deals, and great seating. Really can't beat it. Will be coming back again and again.

    Lobster Roll

    I came in for lunch when my family was visiting the city for the day. They really have something for everyone and the prices are extremely reasonable for the quality and portion size. The service was super fast even with the size of the order and everything came out exactly how we expected it. I was also pleasantly surprised that they have a great selection of wine that paired really well with the food being served. The seating area in the back is great for groups and overall the atmosphere was comfortable and staff was really helpful with what to order. Will definitely be back, especially for late night!

    An amazing cook to order burger joint. Mushroom and Swiss was the work of gods. The chefs are Ethan and Max and they are gods.

    Getting a reservation here is very hard. One just popped up in my Resy app for lunch though, so I…read morewent for it. It was my first time here although, it has been around for ages. The front part where you first walk in is the bar area with some tables. This restaurant is on the darker side and brings you back in time. Once you walk in further that is where the main dinning room is. This is also on the darker side as you can maybe tell by my photos. The wall paper and art around the restaurant is cool and there are some monkey statues around the restaurant. I was seated in a corner table in a booth area that seemed to be for at least 2-3 people. I thought for sure they would seat me at the bar area. I had a wonderful waitress whose name I think was Taylor but I could be wrong. I ordered the Monkey bread to start off with. It's a very buttery bread with truffle and parm cheese on top. I have alot of allergies and I was searching online if I could even have truffles as I have a nut allergy. So, I asked the waitress and she said she had never heard this. But, she came back to me and told me that White truffle grows near or like over where Almonds grow from but that, they don't use white truffle so I was all good. Well, this was super nice of her to check for me. I had no idea she was going to do this. She said the restaurant has strict protocols when it comes to food allergies. I then got for my main dish the double cheese burger with onions and pickles. To drink I had the cucumber martini. WOW everything was pretty darn good!! I passed on dessert. If you get a chance or a reservation pops up in your resy to go, even if it is for lunch..I highly say go for it.

    From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone for the entire experience. Our server was…read moreincredibly warm, upbeat, and full of energy--one of those people who genuinely elevates a meal. I only wish I could remember her name because she deserves the recognition. We started with drinks, and mine ended up being a surprise standout. I ordered the coconut margarita, slightly hesitant since I'm not usually a margarita fan--but it completely won me over. It struck a perfect balance and leaned just enough into the coconut to make it feel unique without being overpowering. My sister-in-law, who's pregnant, had a non-alcoholic Ritual margarita and loved it, noting how convincingly it mimicked the real thing. Since we were sharing, we got to try a good mix of the menu. The monkey bread came first--definitely a splurge at $34, but it's one of those fun, indulgent starters that's worth ordering at least once. While I wouldn't call it the best bread I've ever had, I also wouldn't change anything about it. The crab rangoon was another highlight. Having it made with real crab made a noticeable difference, and the dipping sauces complemented it really well. It felt like a more elevated take on something familiar. For mains, the French dip was a hit. The meat was incredibly tender, the bread had that ideal crusty exterior, and the au jus was packed with flavor--I was very glad I ordered extra. It pulled the whole dish together. We also tried the smoked whitefish Caesar, which was the only dish that didn't quite land for me. It was a well-made, fresh salad, but the smoked fish flavor was a bit overpowering and took over the balance of the dish. Even though we were too full for dessert, the restaurant surprised us with a scoop of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce to celebrate my sister-in-law's babymoon. It ended up being one of the most memorable bites of the meal--we're still talking about how good that ice cream was. We arrived right at 11:45, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely buzzing. It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. Between the lively atmosphere, strong service, and well-executed food, I'd highly recommend making a reservation if you can.
