Had a hankering for a burger. Got a coupon online for this place. Never heard of it. Asked the gal at the counter what burger was good and she said "I was just going to make myself a Burger Belly". Good enough for me, so I got one. It was delivered faster than I thought it would, and it was awesome. I was actually getting sad when I noticed it was almost gone. Like really sad. I'm full, it was great. Service was top notch. She came by a few times to check on us for refills, at a fast food place? Unheard of. Spent four times as much earlier this week at Barbacoa, for worse tasting food, lousy service, and not as cute servers. I know where I'll be going back to. This place is on my top Boise places!! read more

Burger Belly - Burger belly - Burgers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

A great solid burger. Staff was chill and friendly. Nothing particularly special about the atmosphere, just really casual and chill.

Didn't even know this place existed until I drove by it and it caught my eye, so I decided to check it out. This space was the former home of Lucy's Coffee. To my recollection, probably the worst name for a burger place I've come across (what, "Burger Gut" didn't make the cut?). The thought of this food sitting in my belly is one of the last things I'd want to think about while eating here. Also their mascot is pretty much Hawkins Pac-Out's logo but with legs (see attached photo). If I was affiliated with Pac-Out, I'd probably be somewhat annoyed with that. A fairly simple menu with five or six burger options (including their signature burger with Texas toast instead of a hamburger bun), hot dog, fish/chicken sandwich, grilled cheese, and sides. The a la carte pricing is slightly cheaper than average, but the combo meals are the way to go here. French fries are $1.45, but the combo meals cost $1.45/$1.50 more than the price of the the entree, meaning that your drink is essentially free or costs $.05. Combo meals are as low as $5, so it's a good value if that amount of food can alleviate your hunger. I asked for my burger to be left a little pink inside, which was first met with confusion and then followed by grudging acceptance (great, another local burger place that's scared I'm gonna sue them). As is true to form around here, what I asked for and what I got were two separate things. I'm really starting to appreciate the burger places here that will do what I request not to mention doing it without it being like pulling teeth. The food quality was wholly pedestrian. Frozen patty, average condiments, average bun, cheap generic fries. It did absolutely nothing for me, the food equivalent of "in one ear, out the other." You're paying a little less here, but the quality is going to be a little less as well. I would assume that BSU students make up the majority of its business given its proximity to the campus (I seemed to be the only non-student when I was in there). They're open until 2 AM Thursdays-Saturdays to meet their late-night binging needs. If you're a student on a budget and want to get a complete meal for cheap and don't have really discriminating tastes, then this place will suffice (and you're supporting a local business over the chains that surround the area). Otherwise Big Jud's is literally a mile away from this place to the west and offers far superior burgers and fries. read more

Don't understand how these aren't all 5*. This place is conveniently located near BSU, relatively cheap ($7.25 for a double cheeseburger w/ grilled onions, an order of fries, their DELICIOUS fry sauce, and a drink) and wayyyyyy better than the extremely mediocre Burger King, McDonalds, Jack in the Box and Wendy's which are all also on Broadway. If you read this review and don't go here you just shouldn't be allowed to make any more decisions. read more

Burger Belly - $7.25 for a double cheeseburger with fries and a drink - Burgers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Even in a city where local burger joints abound, Burger Belly stands out as our families favorite place. Not many know about it, which is part of the charm, but their namesake burger, the Burger Belly is perfection. It's like a perfect grilled cheese met. Double patty bacon burger. Top it off with great shakes, great onion rings, and a wonderful owner who's been doing it right for year, what else could you want out of a classic burger joint? They even make a burger patty for my dog when they're not slammed. I highly recommend this place, I hope they're around for a long time! read more

I always looking for a good burger so I tried Belly Burger because Yelp gave the a 4 Star rating. I ordered the Cheeseburger Combo and substituted Onion Rings instead of fries (a $2.50 upcharge). The burger was average but was barely luke warm when they brought it to my table. My final comment... I gave them a try but I won't be returning. read more

This is probably my favorite local fast food place. They have a simple menu, but do everything right. Their fries are usually amazing but can sometimes be a bit soggy/limp. The service has never been short of awesome though. read more

Food, price, and service was excellent. Felt like i walked back into the early 90`s late 80`s for a good classic cheeseburger burger. I will be back for sure because places like this are hard to find. Glad its in Boise! read more

Burger Belly - Bacon cheeseburger is a classic throwback to how cheeseburgers are supposed to be made. Yum! - Burgers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

I recommend the fry's for sure. Best fries around here that I've had. The cheeseburger was good. I will be back to try the steak fingers. They have a secret menu board as well. Great prices. Nice outside patio. read more

Great place right on Broadway Ave. I can't believe I have been by there so many times and never checked it out. They have an OUTSTANDING burger with Texas toast that I highly recommend! Fry Sauce is quite good as well. A really small indoor space, but larger on the patio in the summer months. Highly recommended! read more

Got all ready to go out and try this resultant out.. I show up at 6:20 and there's people outside eating but the doors were locked. The people then said they closed early because they weren't getting any business. Well you guys lost mine ! Online says it closes at 9.. really disappointing I'm so hungry !): read more

Burger Belly is one of my fave spots in Boise, and I go out to eat A LOT. Nothing pretentious here, just a simple menu and simple food. Oh, and did I mention that it's CHEAP?! For the people who write their reviews complaining about the poor quality food, blah blah, get a life. You don't go to a cheap place that caters to college students expecting a high end dining experience. Having said that, I've noticed every time I've been in for lunch that a good number of professionals have found this place as well! Anyway, back to the Burger Belly...the patties are thin. If you want more meat, I believe it's an extra $1 to double up the beef. With a burger basket with fries and a drink costing $5-6, that extra $1 would still leave you with a nice cheap, but delicious lunch. The #3 is my favorite, the bacon cheeseburger basket, at a cost of 6.20 IIRC. The mushroom swiss on sourdough is also awesome if you happen to show up on a day when that's the special! The outside seating is nice here too! Located right on Broadway, you'd expect the outside seating area to be noisy from the traffic, but it's really not bad at all. My kids love this place, and all the friends I've brought here do as well! I've been to Burger Belly 3 times already this week, can't wait til next time! read more

Burger Belly - #3 - Bacon Cheeseburger w/ fries! - Burgers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

We stopped in here last evening for a quick bite before an event at the Morrison Center and were very disappointed. The burger patties were on the verge of being undercooked and the cheese slices were thrown on with the lettuce and tomato instead of melted on the patties. Taste was okay but because of the way they were cooked the meat wasn't hot. Tater tots were done right. Service was prompt. Won't be back and wouldn't recommend. read more

Well that was delicious!! I got a bbq burger, which was amazing, it did have some spice to it. My husband and kids got the cheeseburger and enjoyed it as well. The fry sauce was amazing also! Very happy with the meal. Service was great. We will be back! read more

Best chicken sandwich I've ever had...Chipotle sauce not too spicy, baby romaine, fresh tomato and cheese on a ciabatta bun. Can't wait for lunchtime tomorrow, seriously! Fries were great too, super crispy on the outside and fluffy inside...great job guys! read more

Great price and great taste. Old school burger joint. We had the grilled chicken and bbq burger. Both were delicious. The place is like going back in time in a good way. The owner (who is originally from Greece) was very involved and seems to care a lot. Quick and tasty. If you are looking for a great little burger place - you found it. read more

I read a couple of reviews before deciding to walk across campus to try this place out. I tried the cheeseburger combo with a shake and it was excellent! It seems like the small independent burger joints are always the best and this is no exception. Wonderful, welcoming service and very inexpensive for a poor college student like myself. Can't wait to come back again read more

I feel terribly bad for not visiting this place all my two years at Boise! Being very close to BSU, I was really not attracted to it for some unknown reason! Story apart! The burger is really amazing and its one of the best burgers I have had in sometime. The meat was tender and juicy, absolute mouth watering! I would go over and over for missing it during my two years at Boise! The waitress was amazing and she was very positive and explained a lot about the different options. read more

Delicious burger! The burger belly burger is very good. 2 patties, bacon, grilled onions, lettuce and tomato on Texas toast. I got it without the BBQ sauce after reading the reviews and I think that was a good choice. We did get some BBQ sauce on the side and it was very good but would definitely overpower the burger. Fries were good and the fry sauce was delicious. Great customer service too! We will be back read more

If I could give reviews to a decimal I'd give it a 3.5 but I rounded it up because the Atmosphere around their is very nice. The workers gave us a churro for our first time there because we came in from out of town. Burgers were mehh just your typical grilled frozen patty, Fries were alright. Loved the fry sauce but had to add a little bit more ketchup. Overall solid if it was in my town I'd go there more often because the people are very welcoming. read more

The burgers are pretty good and juicy, don't think twice if you want them to customize it. Tried the burger belly and it recommend it. Unlike other burgers here, this one is on a Texas toast. read more

Good local burger spot but my main complaint is they use flavorless frozen patties. Lots of extra bread around the edges The fries and topping selection are good. The burgers could really hit the next level if they switched up their patties. read more

Really good! Good, no frills, fast-food type burger that's super cheap to boot. Got the bacon cheeseburger combo for myself which comes standard with grilled onions which was quite tasty. Hubby got the fish sandwich combo, also good but a little heavy handed on the tarter sauce. No biggie though. Service is prompt and friendly, this might be our new go-to on-the-go burger joint. Parking can be a little hairy - if you have anything larger than a mid-size sedan and the parking lot is near full, you're outta luck. There were 3 spots and my Pilot would not fit in any of them. read more

Ordered the Double Bacon Cheese burger. Great flavor, and huge chunks of bacon. The service at lunch was amazing. The lady running the place came outside to ask if we wanted refills on our side, and later she thought we were locking for help, and she showed up to help, even though we didn't need anything. I will be back. read more

Ordered a burger belly, bacon double cheese, cheese burger, grilled cheese and fries. Personally I shared shared double bacon cheese and burger belly with the Wife. I actually preferred the bacon double cheese burger. I asked the gal who took our order to fix it the way she would like. The fries were okay. Typical fry sauce which was good. I would say it's one of the best burgers in Boise. I would rate up there with In and Out. Five Who?? , Smash what?? I wished I would have tried the onion rings as I saw them on someone else's table and they looked great. But I will be back very soon! Don't miss this place for the burgers. They are doing it right !! read more

This burger place rocks!!! I love the lady that runs this place/owner she's just a hustler and very customer service oriented. She's always smiling no matter how busy they are. They have a very basic menu with great prices(affordable). I usually get the cheeseburger; everything is cooked to order. The cheeseburger is delicious; if your not feeling like a burger check out the grilled cheese yeah it's out of this world. The fries are your standard French fries if you want to go up a flavor notch order their side winders (think potatoes and the fair). They also offer great shakes so if your looking to get your burger fix this is an affordable great tasting option!! read more

The burger belly burger was messy good. The secret sauce and bbq sauce really overwhelmed the burger though. Less is more as the saying goes. The toast on the burger belly was right on Point with just a slight crunch when biting into burger. Good fry sauce. The fries are frozen but are decent. Not sure if the party is frozen, but I wouldn't be surprised. I'll try the classic cheeseburger next time. The fry boy seemed to be annoyed with the young girl working the register. They had some beef going on. She kept saying she's not mean and he seemed butt hurt about something to do with her. read more

A no-frills burger joint with a nice throwback feel that had nothing but good things to offer! My boyfriend and I were visiting Boise and looking to hit a local joint when we came across Burger Belly. We both picked the BBQ Burger Basket, which was $6.15 I believe and it included a sizable portion of fries and a drink with free refills. The woman working the counter asked if we wanted fry sauce with our baskets, which was delicious, and my boyfriend was so excited for just that part. I highly recommend this place! read more

Burger Belly - BBQ Burger Basket with Fry Sauce - Burgers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Came here with a local friend when I was on a business trip. He works for Micron and told me this is an undiscovered jewel. Their prices are unbelievably low, and you think at those prices quality must be compromised, but that was not the case. It is indeed very comparable to some of the higher quality burgers that cost at least twice. It looks like a family run business and the atmosphere is very friendly. The gentleman who owns it is from Greece and by the time I finished my burger, we were good friends. I think it will be a well known place in a few years, and I will definitely come here in my subsequent visits to Boise. I was in Boise again last week and visited these folks. Still pretty good. read more

I haven't wrote a Yelp review in a while but I had to make an exception for this place. For just $8, you can get a bacon burger with a drink and fries. The best part is that this $8 combo is even better than some of the fancier, more expensive burger joints in Boise. Great atmosphere, great seating, very kind service, and probably the best music choice for a burger joint out there, Burger Belly is just a delight. Whether you are just coming to visit Boise or live in Boise, Burger Belly is a must-eat kinda place! read more

In town for a concert. We yelped restaurants near our hotel and decided to eat here. Hubby got a bacon burger with fries and soda. I ordered a grilled cheese (on Texas toast), onion rings and a chocolate shake. Classic diner food. Good fry sauce. Our table and the bathroom were dirty; the place wasn't busy so they should have been cleaned. Lots of college students around--low prices for meals. read more

This place serves burgers, fries, and more at a very great value. The food is very simple and easy to order! I ordered the Colossal Burger that included a single burger patty, pastrami, fry sauce, and basic burger condiments. The meal included fries and drink. The food is definitely not one of the best burgers and is not gourmet, but if you're try to be ballin' on a budget, I highly recommend you try Burger Belly. read more

Best burger in Boise. Great homemade fry sauce and real ice cream shakes. Go here twice a week and always find something new to try

Not one of my favorite reviews but service was slow even though there was not much customer service. Place was cold and really tight spaces. My bacon cheeseburger was ok, the patty was good, the bun was hard like an old burger bun. The onion rings were salty. My wife got the belly burger which tasted way better because it was on toasted bread vs a bun. The one thing she did not like was the bacon was oily, like dripping oil still. She got the bbq sauce on the side and she loves the sauce, it had a nice Smokey mesquite flavor, tangy, and a good thickness to it. All the review are correct, get the bbq on the side as it could over power your burger. The fries were good, crispy with a nice soft center for fat fries. My daughter liked her chicken sandwich which had a weird look as if half was fried and the other half wasn't. She also said the bun was too hard. I don't know if that is what they were goin for but I would rather have the top of the bun soft with the inside toasted. If you do come here, I would probably say get the belly burger if your ok with a little bit of grease on the bacon which was ok for me. "Give it a try and feel the hunger!" read more

New to Boise and this place was a find. Really good food and friendly servers. Get the burger and enjoy.

Honestly, I love this place. It's kind of a hole in the wall, but everyone who works there is really nice. The food is pretty decent (good for when you're hungover) & it's really decently priced. It's nothing *fancy* but it's a classic read more
