Great food, especially the burgers. Menu is not too big but you cant go wrong with any of the options.

A hefty burger for a pretty outrageous price. I got the Double Trouble (+ a second patty, $5 more) and a side of fries. The burger was definitely sizable, packed with beef, and had a great meat flavor overall (especially the charred bits near the edges). The burger came as-shown with no vegetables. You can request for lettuce on the side. For a price of $35, it was truly Newbury St prices...there are better options for sure read more

Food was on point, tasted very good. No complaints in that area what so ever. The wings I got, some were extremely small, felt like a rip off. The buffalo fries tasted good with the sauce but without the sauce the chicken was a bit unseasoned. Overall, good service and will return. read more

One of the most outstanding burgers I've had in a longgg time! This underground spot on Newbury serves up elevated diner food bringing both a sense of comfort and delight when enjoying their crazy good, unique creations! I tried the spicy chicken sandwich, loaded buffalo fries, cookie monster shake, and their cheeseburger, the last of which definitely stole the show! The burger patty was juicy and tender with a delicious salty flavor that melded together perfectly with the creamy cheese. All the toppings were tasty and harmonious while not overpowering the patty itself and the bun was like biting into a cloud, fluffy and supportive of the overall bite. I will admit, after being so impressed with their burger (which to be fair is their specialty), I wasn't the biggest fan of the fries which were tasty on their own but a little too rich with all the toppings, and the chicken sandwich was honestly dry and I wish it had more flavor. Additionally, their shake, while definitely tasty, didn't blow me away. So, generally, I'd say if you're going here for a burger, it's definitely worth the trip!! The portion sizes are generous even despite the pricier menu (and for Boston on Newbury St, it's very good!). Also, the cozy yet vibrant vibes add a nice touch of joy and a feeling casual celebration to the table. The service matches this energy with their kind and friendly yet efficient and professional demeanor. Overall the experience dining here is one to remember for both the tasty comfort food and the fun atmosphere. I'd recommend bringing friends or family and getting a couple dishes to share! read more

I highly recommend the milkshakes! The food is ok, but the milkshakes are where it's at. I ordered the I'm Crazy for Cookie Dough milkshake and it was one of the best milkshakes I've ever had. The flavor is pure perfection. We also ordered chicken tenders and wings to share. They were good but the milkshakes outshined them. read more

Found this place while just heading down Newbury street heading to Newbury comics. I'm so happy that I did. It was pouring out and I was soaking wet and hungry. Tried the sweet and spicy fries, and they were wicked awesome! I'm a real culinary expert so I paired my fries with an ice cold Angry Orchard and it hit the spot. I'm definitely putting this place on my "must come back soon or life is not with living list" Next time I'm going to try one of those amazing looking burgers! read more

I'd been wanting to try out CGK for the longest time and if I was purely rating their food, it would honestly be closer to 4-4.5 stars. However, I think the service that my friends and I experienced really negatively impacted our meal here. To start off on the positives, CGK is a fun, casual restaurant where they offer typical burgers, fries, wings/tenders, and shakes with unique twists! There was a decent amount of seating and I think it's a great spot to catch up with friends over some comfort food. Their menu is easily accessible with a barcode and the atmosphere was lively, but not overwhelmingly noisy! In terms of food, I ended up getting a regular burger, but I specifically requested a gluten-free bun and allergy flag to avoid cross-contamination since I have celiac. My friends ordered burgers as well (without any accommodations) and we decided to split a side of sweet and spicy fries (clearly listed as gluten-free on their menu). The portion of their fries is pretty impressive and easily shareable between 2-3 people. The sweet and spicy flavors were really well done - both the spicy mayo and honey sauces really shone through and you're also able to sample some of their chicken tender bites topped on top of the fries. In fact, I enjoyed the fries side even more than my burger - which was juicy and cooked to my preferred temperature, but didn't really stand out at all. My friends also ordered a side of wings to share, though I didn't try that and can't comment. I was really disappointed with our specific server because she acted incredibly dismissive about my serious food allergy, even though I had wanted to come here specifically because I'd heard great reviews about CGK accommodating food allergies! I probably spent almost 5 minutes just trying to get across the fact that I had a serious gluten allergy, which meant that I wanted to make a gluten-free bun modification to my order, and I also wanted to make sure my specific order was flagged with an "allergy." Our server seemed like she was *very* uncertain about how to address my requests and instead of asking someone else for help or even just letting us know that she has to double check the guidelines, she basically brushed off my concerns - at first saying that my order "would be prepared separately" without even putting in my gluten-free bun request, and then when we politely asked if she could repeat our orders just to quickly double check, she was still missing the note about gluten allergy. Needless to say, I felt very anxious the entire time there since she didn't give me a lot of confidence in her ability to handle my allergy. I understand that it can be incredibly busy during dinner hours but the fact that she was struggling with even basic requests for a serious allergy, and that she didn't even bother checking with someone else or asking for help if she really felt like she couldn't handle it, left a really bad impression on our entire table. Despite all the positive review, I'm honestly a bit hesitant to be back - at least because of my allergy. If you don't have any food allergies though, would definitely be a great spot to try out on Newbury! read more

My girlfriend and I have been seeing CGK everywhere and stopped by today! We were starving, and decided this was the time. While everything was delicious - especially our burgers - we found the service to be a little on the slower side. Our food came out pretty timely, but we waited quite a bit for both our drinks and the bill. We opted for the brunch burgers and were both VERY impressed - I would definitely order them again. We also ordered the buffalo chicken fries and while they were also delicious, way too spicy. My girlfriend LOVES anything spicy, especially buffalo chicken, but these were even too much for her. Also, seems a tad overpriced -- nearly $75 for two burgers, fries, and drinks? ... Really solid option though, I'm glad that we tried it. I would definitely get another burger here, but would maybe go for plain fries. Worth checking out! read more

Yum yum yum. I've been to two locations which the food is still yum just different environment. Newbury location feels like a Dungeon- very tight but they have a little patio if available Malden location is like a take out looking shack. Fries are Large portions good enough for 2people read more

Crazy Good Kitchen - Chicken tenders - American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Ordered: Oklahoma Style Burger (~$14): charred onions with a beef patty smashed right over the top, and made double, American cheese, yellow mustard Sweet & Spicy Fries (~$14): spicy fries drizzled with hot honey topped with spicy chicken tenders tossed on hot honey and drizzle with better than ketchup sauce Diet Coke (~$3) Aya's take: We found ourselves at CGK since we wanted something fairly quick to eat that would also be satisfying and filling. Off the bat, I would highly recommend the Sweet & Spicy Fries. They were crispy, spicy, sweet, and just the perfect harmony of greasy goodness flavors. It could've used some pickles to cut through some of the fat and saltiness. The Oklahoma Style Burger was decent but the taste of onions and yellow mustard completely overpowered it. Most of the onions weren't charred (just sautéed) and along with the yellow mustard, it didn't mesh well together. The bun was super soft and fresh, and the beef patties were juicy and well-seasoned. Loved the Sweet & Spicy Fries but the Oklahoma Style Burger didn't hit the spot as I hoped it would. read more

We randomly decided to stop since the ambiance was so nice and they had a two person table out on the patio. We got a hot mess burger but since it comes with shave beef we opted for a single patty and got the truffle fries to lighten the load. Our server, Debra was so attentive and great, she recommended the mango milkshake and she wasn't wrong! Prices are high but you get a lot of food. We took the shake to go since we were stuffed! Really glad we stopped here, will definitely be back! read more

Good burgers and sandwiches at a decent price. Nothing absolutely special but worth a stop if you're in the area.

I thoroughly enjoyed my veggie burger, cheese fries and milkshake here. Enjoyed it so much I had to stop by again before I left Boston. My waiter was sweet and attentive and the vibe is just chill. Don't go driving here now because if you know Newbury there is no parking but if you're casually walking around the area, definitely stop by. read more

I got the Double Trouble burger and we split the parm truffle fries. The food was really good, but definitely a burger you'll need to clean up after. Everything was well seasoned and had a ton of flavor. Menus were on your phone through a QR code, but the server came to the table to take your order. We were in an out in less than an hour. Food was ordered and at the table under fifteen minutes which was awesome. The place has a young feel. I was definitely tight quarters, but had a cool vibe. read more

An amazing burger joint on Newbury Street. Came here on a Saturday evening and it was packed, but it had a very nice vibe. The hostess was extremely politely and we were able to be seated within 5 mins. The waitress was very friendly and made us felt welcomed. I ordered the double trouble burger, one of the ebst burgers I gave tried in Boston and we shared the wings, Philly cheese steak and sweet and spicy loaded fries. They were all so amazing but I especially loved the sweet and spicy loaded fries. read more

My girlfriend and I found ourselves crazy hungry in 90 degree weather in the middle of Boston amid a Fenway game and Newbury St tourism. Our usual spots were too busy, and we've been eyeing CGK for a few years now, so we decided our fateful day to try it was upon us. We walked on a busy Saturday afternoon, but were lucky to snag a table for two. TLDR - solid burgers, but very overpriced and slow service. While the burgers were pretty good, the service was pretty slow overall. We started off with two sodas, which took about 20 minutes to come out. The food, however, came out promptly after we placed our order. I got the "Brunch Monstah" burger-chicken sandwich hybrid and my girlfriend ordered their classic burger. My burger was one of the craziest (as by the name!) I have ever eaten - in a good way. It had a beef patty, a fried chicken patty, an over-medium egg, bacon, and cheese. It was great and I was definitely full for the day with all of that protein! My girlfriend's smash burger was very good as well, and was cooked well. We decided to also split an order of the buffalo chicken fries, which were good in flavor, but were way too overwhelming as they were completely drenched in buffalo sauce. Even for someone with an incredibly high spice tolerance and love for sauce, the ratio was definitely off. It was more soupy than anything, and the fries ended up being very soggy. I think it definitely would've been better if they were drizzled with the buffalo sauce. The chicken tenders, however, were tasty on top. After we finished the food, it took an additional 20 minutes to get the check. When we got the check, we were surprised that the total came out to be $75. My sandwich (alone, no side dish) was $20, and the fries which were all buffalo sauce were $14. Not wallet friendly and probably not worth it to go often. I would recommend going for the burgers once in a while, though. read more

CGK is a good option if you're on Newbury and searching for a casual lunch/dinner location. Always crowded, but their food is pretty solid. Their chicken sandwich is always a go to for me -- well fried and served with good toppings.

They're most definitely CRAZY GOOD!! I had one of the BEST BURGER EVER here recently!! Their popular burger is the Hot Mess and Cheese, which comes with two patties on it, as most of their burgers do. But since I pretty a slightly less messy burger, I opted for a single patty. The meat on the burger was insanely tender and tasty! The cheese and their specially made ketchup and mayo sauces really complemented the burger patty and cheese well... but that shaved beef they put on top really knocked this burger outta the park! Easily one of the best burgers I've ever had! Fries were great too! They'll do them in various styles, so I asked for spicy. This meant they sprinkled some cayenne looking pepper on top and they had a nice kick. Service was decent and the location is interesting, being in a basement of a brownstone. Can't wait to return! read more

Service: Quick and simple, scan to view the menu, they got burgers, fries, chicken sandwiches, tenders, milkshakes, crazy milkshakes, cocktails, etc. So, standard burger joint fare. The chicken tenders were very well cooked and great breading/flavor! The fries were okay, i wish they were thinner and crispier, but not too bad still. The side bbq sauce, blue cheese, and buffalo were pretty standard, and good. Overall decent place for burger like food. read more

You'll only eat so many burgers in your life, don't let this be one of them. $36 for a very greasy, poorly seasoned burger and fries is about 5x what I'd actually be willing to pay for that. On the plus side, while I sat there thinking about the mediocre meal I wasted that money on, I figured that vegetarianism may actually be something I should try. read more

These were very good . All in all a good burger ; but should off some simple ones... 1/2 or 3/4 lb simple cheeseburger vs 6 oz burgers with all the add on stuff.

I enjoyed my dinner at CGK. I ordered the 'Merica Style burger, and it was a good, hearty burger. My friend and I also ordered fries to share, and they tasted great too. There are a few aspects though that are not making me review this place higher. Firstly, the burgers were a bit too greasy - especially the double trouble burger, which my friend ordered - he said that it felt too fatty. Also, the menu doesn't have too much variety - all the burgers are basically the same, just with very slight differences, such as sauces. In addition, the it is a bit pricey. The restaurant has an okay vibe and some interesting decor choices. As for the service, our servers were friendly, but they did make us leave early due to there being a high demand for tables. Overall, it was a good experience, and I can't deny that it was a tasty and juicy burger - but I don't know if I would return again, and if this place deserves the hype that it gets. read more

Wow, the name really says it all, the food here is Crazy Good! After a busy day of walking around Boston (and doing some day drinking) we arrived back to our hotel in need of a serious meal. We happened upon Crazy Good Kitchen and were instantly hooked when we saw the menu. I ordered the Oklahoma style burger which has two patties, one of which is smashed on top of onions, along with mustard and American cheese. I also added the Better than Ketchup and burnt butter mayo to mine. I know you may doubt me, but this might have been one of the best burgers I have ever had, and I have had a lot of burgers in my lifetime. The patties were juicy and seasoned well, the toppings all complimented the burger and weren't too overpowering, and the cherry on top was the light and airy sesame bun. Just so freaking good. My girlfriend got the 'Merica Style and it was delicious as well. I honestly don't think any of the burgers will disappoint. We opted for the steak bomb fries and they were *the bomb*. Fried perfectly and topped with shaved steak, peppers, onions, and queso these had me in awe of how good they were. We ordered one order and it was big enough for the two of us to share. To finish the meal off I got a Nutella shake which was pretty dang good as well. Do yourselves a favor and stop by Crazy Good Kitchen if you have the chance and you will not be disappointed! read more

Been here twice... satisfied both times. I wouldn't say it's 'crazy good' but it is good. The milkshakes are fun and yummy. A good thickness and the extra add ons are edible and cute. My gf loves the buffalo chicken fries so she's always happy with that. The fries are good but the burger is better. I got a burger for the first time here and I was pleasantly surprised. I got Oklahoma style. However, both times I've been here, the service is very meh. Slow to get water, slow to give order, slow to get really anything. The bathroom is also atrocious- so gross. A good spot for a quick meal. Also they're good for takeout read more

What seems to be a small establishment really opens up when you head downstairs! If you're bringing a group of people, I'd say 5 would be close to the max amount of people that could sit comfortably in one area (as was the case for our group). We came at around 5 pm on a Saturday (which I would recommend to avoid a huge wait!). Items ordered (as of 4/2024): - Double Trouble - $15.50 (single patty) - Bread was very tender. There was ample amounts of bacon and the butter + ketchup combination worked really well. While not the best burger I've ever had it's definitely up there! - Chicken bomb fries - $13 - This was pretty good but surprisingly heavy due to the cheese (of which there is ample amounts). The flavor is good and it's basically a cheesesteak (obviously with chicken instead) with fries under it. Definitely share this with 2 or 3 people since it is DENSE! - Sweet and spicy fries - $13.50 - This was a big winner for me. Not too sweet with a nice kick at the end! The chicken really adds to this when combined with the fries. Best of all it's not too heavy! I would get this again. Overall we really enjoyed our meal. Probably the biggest complaint when we were there was how hot and humid it was inside (it was around 60 degrees outside). Definitely will be back to try their other burgers/fries! read more

I washed it all down with a delicious Nutella shake. I had no regrets until the next day at the gym trying to burn off all the calories consumed.
