Great burger with the right amount of toppings. Shakes were amazing. I was disappointed with the fries. Was expecting something different from the menu description. Overall good food and fast service! read more

The food was great the service was fast we even had a super complicated order and were overall confusing and somehow they still got our order perfect. The prices aren't bad at all and the food was great. While it is definitely their whole thing and I LOVE the word play be careful if you have impressionable children and you say their burger names (such as the "Big Dick") read more

This time around the Donburi Boys hit Dick Mondell's, craving that big BEEF. I ordered my burger with no Dick sauce however my partner, Big T, opted in. We enjoyed our food in the open-air seating area and although toasty, the sweet tea was on point. Fries! Big T thought the patty itself was like the damn dead sea, salty as hell, although we do concede this could've been secondary to the Dick sauce. We agree with our colleague Yanan L. that these burgers were some hefty boys. Overall, this is a good fast food burger and would return. It is our humble opinion that Dick Mondell's has earned a 4.20 out of 5.00 stars. read more

Best burger in town. Come by every time I'm in town and it never disappoints. Will be back soon

Simple, fast, and delicious! We both had the Original Big Dick burger along with sweet potato tots and iced tea. Everything was cooked perfectly. The tea was smooth brewed with just the right amount of sweetness. I'm totally a tea snob so that's a big deal to me. Hubby was very impressed too. I got a "well done" with my choice today. He said everything was GREAT! No complaints at all, very tasty. Thank you! read more

This is a Gainesville institution, and although it can be crowded at the drive through, it's a great choice and a better alternative than the big chains. Good value for what you get, and the menu alone is entertaining.... you might embarrass grandma if she has to order here! Sweet potato tots are a unique offering and pretty tasty. The ice cream sandwiches are made with cookies, and the ice cream in them as well as the shakes comes from a small dairy, making them extra fresh, creamy and scrumptious. read more

The burgers and fries are amazing. Try the impossible burger-it is fantastic. I highly recommend this place.

I'm bummed because they changed their chocolate shake recipe. It used to taste complex with the cocoa they used to put in it but now it just tastes like a McDonald's shake but upcharged to $5. Maybe I came on an off night, but this shake doesn't impress me anymore, especially when I would drive 20 minutes just to get it. Food is still good though. read more

The reason for the one star is due to horrible customer service. The food is not worth the wait time. It seems like people have a better experience when not in the drive thru. But, there's no next time for me. I bought the original big Dick. It was meh, I'd rather get a Dave's double from Wendy's. The burger is too small and mediocre for said price. It just wasn't giving what it should have gave. And, 4 something for a small ice cream sandwich? Ultimately, the food is okay, ive definitely had better. If the customer service was good I would have given 3 stars. read more

Really liked this place! Burger was juicy and fries were perfect. Cute and comical! Very friendly staff too! I added cheese and bacon and it was delish read more

Dick Mondell's - Burgers Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

I have returned many more times and I can still say these are the best fries I have ever had. I don't know what their secret is but I could eat a giant bag of them. So good! I do prefer the fries over the sweet potato tots which is shocking because I love sweet potato. read more

Really tasty burgers and shakes. A little expensive but worth it. Friendly service. They serve Impossible Burger and a really good veggie burger. read more

There's just no way "Dick Mondell's" isn't a Freudian spoonerism for McDonald's. The phallic name of the restaurant and menu items and the 60's look were enough to get me to give the place a chance. It really looks like one of those CRA projects to turn an old shed into a business, but that's actually kinda cool. Anyway, the food was pretty good, but it's also it's pricey for fast food, and the drive thru doesn't move very quickly. Oh well. I'll be back the next time my friends decide they want awkwardly named food. read more

Good place for burgers, fries and shakes. The food is fresh. Although all seating is outside it's still a good atmosphere. Bottom line, a good place. read more

So, my daughter and I visited Mondell's this evening but wasn't pleased with our fries. They weren't fresh but soft and cold. After receiving our orders from the drive-thru, we both noticed that our fries were not fresh so we parked on the side road and walked up to the window to exchanged them out. The female employee with a very short haircut, cap on her head very short, snippy and unpleasant....She acted like we were at fault and we shouldn't have bought them back. Her facial expression was backward and she doesn't need to work in a fast-food establishment with a negative attitude. At the end of the day, we drove 30 minutes and waited in the drive thru line approx. 15-20 min for two orders, at the very least our food should have been fresh.... #getrained - It's called Excellent Customer Service! read more

High quality food but the regular fries lack potato flavor and weren't freshly fried. The veggie burger was a bit mushy for my preferences and on the expensive side. Would give this place another shot for the impossible burger and sweet potato tots though! read more

This is an interesting corner drive thru walk up hamburger restaurant. Everything is made with quality ingredients and prepared fresh. They have salads and plant based burgers as well. I ordered a creamsicle shake, Dick's Jr. Hamburger all the way, and sweet potato tots ($14). The creamsicle shake was not thick and ice creamy like I prefer but the flavor was on point; it tasted really good. The cardboard straw they gave me could have easily disintegrated in the liquefied shake but I sipped away profusely and avoided a mess. The sweet potato tots were plump and delicious, and I liked the dipping sauce for the sweet potato tots. The hamburger had a tender lightly buttered soft bun and the beef patty didn't disappear amongst the bun and other ingredients; it was a good solid hamburger, but it's a little drier than I prefer. The drive thru attendant was cordial, and he told me that the Big Dick hamburger was their best seller. read more

Yummy food, a little pricey but such a cute little location and the play on the name was very humorous! Would definitely go there again, just highly recommend staying and eating there rather than trying to go through their long drive thru read more

First time here, AHMAZING!!!!! I ate the Dick Junior with pepper jack cheese and husband had The original Big Dick burger. Sister's had a mushroom & Swiss Dick Junior and a herbed chicken burger. The dick sauce was savory good and the fries were fresh and crunchy and the sweet potato tots were an extra surprise full of flavor. Every single bite we took we kept saying OMG, this is so so so good, yummy!! I am so ready to come back here again, you won't be disappointed, such a pleasant surprise after eating at fast food places. Love this place!!!!!! read more

Such a fabulous hamburger joint!!! Way above the other burger choices in Gainesville!! It is a bit of a drive for me to mid town. But I never regret it!! The current special is a black eyed pea veggie bUrger with remoulade sauce and crispy French fries!!!! So freaking tasty!!! Go now. Do not pass Go...please support such a stellar drive thru!!!! read more

Meh not impressed as I was hoping to be. Dick's is nothing special, overpriced. Macs and Bevs are way better.

I really enjoyed my burger, and it was very similar to an In and Out burger. The fries were good and the service was good. I was going to get a peanut butter ice cream sandwich for dessert but was too full from the burger, so I'm planning on trying that next time. All of their seating is outside, so dress appropriately for the weather if you go. read more

Great 50s/60s style drive thru with an easy simple menu. Good selection of grass fed burgers, homemade veggie burger, and the impossible veggie burger- plus shakes and more! Hope this place stays around, it's kind of in a weird spot. The chocolate shake I had tasted good but was more the consistently of chocolate milk rather than a shake. read more

Probably the best burger in town and course the drive thru is open during the pandemic. If you're not into huge portions, get a Dick Jr., which is a single patty regular sized burger. The regular (I guess the "original" big dick burger) is actually two patties and might be too much for a person with less appetite. The shakes are also very good, and so are the fries. read more

Giving it 5 stars because the burger and fries were delicious and it might be the best burger in town from a fast food joint. I suggest paying the extra .50 a piece for the bacon and cheese. Great milkshakes but not as good as Hoggetowne Creameries. I don't know how this place got away with having a drivethrough because it's dangerous and cars are on the street. Tiny parking lot, walk up service, super friendly staff. read more

Love this place!! The tots are my favorite and the dicks sauce is delicious! Love that there are vegan options and the sauce is also vegan! read more

So good. Bring your glass straw (hate those paper one against my teeth, ew) great sauce, burger and fries! Get extra sauce on the side for the fries. read more

I'll preface this review by stating that I have eaten here 4 times this week since first trying it last Sunday. Each trip has rewarded me with consistently delicious food all around. My wife was jealous she wasn't able to make it when I got it twice on my lunch break. I've had just about every burger in town, and although Mac's Drive Thru unquestionably holds a very dear place in my heart, Dick Mondell's is quickly becoming my favorite place to grab a burger. I have no issue with the price of their food. The burger meat is a bit higher quality, and the size of the patty (even the Dick Jr.) is far bigger than Mac's. Speaking about quality ingredients, the fries at Dick's are hands down my favorite out there. At most restaurants, they're an after-thought, but I can easily see myself making a trip to Dick's for just a large fry or sweet potato tot. Though I haven't branched out to try the other items on the menu, which there are quite a few, I have made it a point to try out their desserts. The Orange Creamsicle shake is nothing short of a revelation, and the ice cream cookie sandwich is not be missed as well. My wife, and admitted cookie snob, couldn't stop herself from sharing mine. I look forward to giving the Coffee Shake a try next time. You can really taste the quality in the dairy Dick's has sourced, it's as good as any hand churned ice cream I've ever had. All in all, I give Dick Mondell's Burgers and Fries two big thumbs up! Thank you for staying open late too, many of us work late and can't make it to a burger place that closes before 6pm. If there's a line, be patient, it's well worth the wait! That being said, they're not slow at getting their patrons served, and the line moves quickly. Sometimes if there's a holdup, someone will come out to your car to take your order to keep things flowing smoothly. It is little details like this that will keep me coming back time and time again. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

This place is great for late night eats or fast food cravings. They even have the impossible burger. My husband and I have tried the regular burgers, chicken burger, and impossible burger- all super good. Sweet potato tots, shakes, and ice cream sandwiches too. read more

Great burgers! A little on the pricey side, but not unreasonable. The fries are just ok. Improved fries would really be my only suggestion! Oh, and a longer drive-thru line. Be prepared to stop in the middle of the road if there are 3 or more cars in line. read more

This place has good burgers, good hours, and environmentally friendly straws. If you want fast food, and you don't want to eat at one of the many awful chain fast food places in Gainesville, eat here. The only problems with this place are the rather inconvenient location and the rather extreme prices of a drink and fries. read more

Dick Mondell's is my favorite fast (quality) food go-to! If you pass by, you will see cars lined up and the walk-up window with a couple people. Don't let that keep you from making a stop. The food is worth the wait! My favs are the veggie burger, made to order, with vegan cheese and the sweet potato tots. Of course, the vegan Dick Sauce compliments the tots. The service is amazing! Kudos to the owner, for only hiring servers with a great smile, positive personality, and lots of energy. The diversity of the staff are a plus for me! I like to see Gainesville represented well. read more

Four stars only because of location. Five stars for the fresh and most delicious meal. Burger heaven! Will be back!!

Old-school retro burger joint. Overpriced- $10.50 for a double Dick burger and small fry. And a cup of water. Names of burgers have double entendre with the male sex organ . Sorry but I don't get any enjoyment in ordering a double hamburger they call the "big dick". The burger was ok, a bit greasy, nevertheless i wolfed it down in about 15s, but the fries tasted strange, like the fryer oil had not been changed often enough. I didn't eat them all even though it was a small order of them. Maybe be it was something else but they were really greasy. The workers were friendly and the service quick. Nice picnic tables outside but no place to park except in the Elks lodge lot across the street. read more

ONE OF THE Best burgers I've ever had! No questions asked. This place rocks. From the bun to the patty to the toppings this place is solid.

Very tasty hamburger and delicious chocolate milkshake ! Nice outdoor environment- can take your pup ! Great service too

I enjoyed Dick's Impossible burger and the natural cut fries were delicious too! The original sauce is even good with the fries. The innuendos are a perfect compliment to Dick's menu! I loved it! It was so tasty I didn't even spare time for a picture lol! read more

Cute idea, great burger, great location. I'm not sure why so many people complain about the price when it's much better than a $5 burger. Worth spending the extra few dollars for sure. But.... I can say that the fries are undercooked. I've given this place many tries before leaving a review. Burgers and service never disappoint. Fries, thumbs down. read more

The big dick burger I tried was pretty good, a bit overpriced though. Maybe they should offer happy hours or something when it's like a dollar or two lower. That'd be a good deal. read more

This place is the absolute best. My boyfriend and I are vegetarians and we come here all the time. The impossible burgers are not only delicious, they are ~healing~. Whenever we are having a rough or long day, we love to stop by and make a bit of our day a little better. The combo of the perfect veggie burgers with delicious fries (and sometimes a milkshake) heals all woes. I'm so glad this place is around, we've only had great experiences. read more
