Disco Burger is the best smash burger in Kansas City right now. There, I said it. In my humble opinion, if you are on the hunt for a solid, classic, burger. One that hits all the marks - great flavor, crispy edges, solid sauce, gooey cheese, this is it. Sure there are others in town, but from the first to final bite, this one had me hooked. The fries were also awesome, the drinks at Varsity are equally wonderful. If you like a no frills, hamburger do yourself a favor and go here. Even my five year old agreed. We all can't wait to return!

Double cheeseburger + fries

This was my first time here, a place I've been wanting to try for a while! Situated in the River market, it should be your next burger place to visit! We went to varsity club and secured a table, ordered from our phones! We got burgers and fries- this is their main offering, though they do have a patty melt, hot dog and some vegetarian options. This was a Friday night, it was pretty busy- we waited over 35+ minutes, but I must admit the fries were worth it! Perfectly crisp and salted! The burger itself was good, a nice double cheese burger. Tasty! Prices aren't too expensive and the perfect place to grab a burger and drink. Overall, the wait was a tad long - understandable though. I will definitely be back!

This place is legit! I'm a cheeseburger connoisseur in the same realm as Andy Reid. A big boy who loves cheeseburgers. This is the one you're looking for. For the proper bread to meat ratio, I opt for a triple cheeseburger hold the disco sauce and add mustard. These patties are smashed with super thin and crispy edges. Honestly, they're fantastic. They also have ice cream and some of the best crinkle fries you will find in town. Disco Burger is in a food truck outside of Varsity Club bar. This place is special. Come on down and enjoy one of the top five burgers in the metro. I will die on this hill.

Oh, those fries!

First visit to Disco Burger on Saturday--and I'm already planning my return. It was a warm evening, but the shady picnic tables tucked behind the Varsity Club made for the perfect breezy hangout spot. Let's talk about that double cheeseburger magic coming out of the food trailer. The smash burger had just the right char, gooey cheese in all the right places, and the Disco Sauce tied it all together. Absolute perfection. And those crinkle fries? Unreal. Crispy, salty, and straight-up addictive. I shamelessly ate two orders and seriously considered going back for a third. I washed it all down with the Tommy Bahama cocktail--a rum, banana, and mango concoction that was tropical vacation in a cup. So good I ordered another without hesitation. Next time, I'm heading inside the Varsity Club to explore more of their wild and wonderful cocktail list. Disco Burger's bringing the heat--and the flavor.

Haven't had a good smashburger in a long time and this place rate pretty high in my book. They make the food fresh in their food truck spot. You know the service is good when you can see them making the food fresh. It's nested behind a cool lounge and it the perfect spot to eat, drink, chill or even watch the game.

I decided to try the food at this fun, cute little truck near the River Market area called Disco Burgers and I really enjoyed it! They share their space with The Varsity Club, where you can grab drinks and then head over to this food truck for food with an open seating area. Disco Burgers offers burgers with a choice of single or multiple patties, fries, and patty melts. I got the double-patty burger and their fries. I got my burger five minutes after ordering so the service was pretty fast. They have a text number based ordering system and it will send you a message after the order is ready. The burger was well-cooked and loaded with toppings from onions to pickles and their "Disco sauce," which was similar to Cane's sauce on a potato bun. It wasn't gooey or moist, that's usually how I prefer having it, but it was yummy!! The French fries were the highlight of my meal. They were delicious, super crunchy, perfectly fried, and well-seasoned. A serious 10/10! The pricing was reasonable -$11 for the double patty and $2.50 for fries.Parking might be a challenge on weekends, and seating near the food truck is limited, so it fills up quickly. I don't think you can bring food inside The Varsity Club but can do vice versa as mentioned before. If you love a classic well-cooked beef burger on a potato bun, this is your spot!

Went here for the first time and will definitely come back. Disco Burger is easily one of the best burgers in town especially if you're looking for a smash burger. We got the double and it was so flavorful and fresh. The cheese, pickles and raw onions were all great but the pickles were definitely my favorite part of the burger aside from the meat of course. The patties are smashed very nicely and I love the crispy edges. They serve from a food truck but there is more than enough seating. This is a great place for a quick casual lunch. If you're in the river market definitely check this place out.

Spiritual Energy Burger and Fries

My absolute FAVORITE burger. I find any excuse to get down to River Market just to grab a burger here. It's our stop before or after any Current game and we've taken friends and family. I can't get enough. I legit crave these burgers. I also recently tried their brunch and it was equally as delicious! I love that they have vegan and vegetarian options as well. Super accommodating, super yummy, all around great place. HIGHLY recommend. Just can't get enough!

Tried the single Disco Burger, shareable fries, and an Arny Palmer--pretty solid all around. I especially loved the vibe!

Worth the wait, worth the hype! Went on a Wednesday night with friends and it was very busy. We really wanted to sit outside and enjoy the KC sun so we ordered drinks at Varsity club while we waited. You can order with a QR code or order in person. We opted out of the QR code and ordered in person. Ordering was fast and they were great in accommodating our customizations. We got the disco sauce on the side instead of on the burger and got all toppings for the hot dog on the side. We also added grilled onions to our burger! The burger was cheesy and delicious! The fries were crispy and salty (which I love). I loved dipping the fries in the disco sauce but don't think I would get it on my burger. It is a little bit more on the expensive side, after tip and service fee it was around $50 but I did see on the menu that they have 20% off on Mondays! A con would be parking. It took us a while to find parking on a Wednesday night, so I can only imagine how hard it is if visiting on the weekends.

Business owner asked how my gf thought of her burger, seeing that she did not finish her burger. I would say not great.

Chelsey V.

Got the patty melt (yassss) and a delicious dog! Love the ease of ordering and text messages to know when food is ready, attached to a bar and so much fun, love the collab..great patio area too. Fast and friendly service and good food

Marissa S.

So good. The best, crispiest crinkle fries and delish burgers. Also like that you can bring your food into Varsity club and enjoy a nice bev with your meal.

My HNFC was a nice size of breast featured with shredded lettuce, tomato and I think it had a pickle or two on and mayo. Definitely had some heat to it.. you could tell by the color as well. The sandwich was good just not in my top faves of HNFC. The fries were nicely golden with great seasoning. I'm curious about the burgers but wouldn't get that sandwich again.

In addition to food, they also have a few drink options like bottles of wine and beer. They even have dog food and dog treats. The store itself is decent sized. There's plenty of space for a few people to move around. They do have a large deli counter and a few coolers full of goodness. Service is always excellent. They are always helpful and can even offer suggestions if you don't know what to make with what. One of my go-tos are any one of their sausages. They have traditional ones plus a few fun ones. And if you watch their social media, they'll usually tell you when they have a limited addition one. The Rieger whiskey and apple sausage is one of my favorites. They also have a chicken curry sausage, which is excellent and has so much curry flavor. On my last visit I noticed that they have mac & cheese that you can take to go. They have a few different varieties, but I went with one with bacon because their bacon is always fantastic. It was a really good side. I slapped it on the grill to warm it up and it was delicious.

And I'm so excited because what goes better with a beer than a burger? My answer is pretty much nothing and thank goodness Burn Theory has got you covered. The special of the evening was a kimchi smash burger. One thing about me is I love anything fermented so, kimchi is one of my favorite things. Surprisingly I had never had it as a burger condiment before so, I was ready to try something fresh and new. It didn't disappoint! It was delicious. The smash burger patty was juicy and had lacey edges just like a proper smasher should, sometimes certain places forget the importance of those crispy edges. Not here! The kimchi wasn't an afterthought at all, it was more than a condiment slapped on top of the burger instead it was piled high and added just the right amount of zippy slightly spicy flavor. The cheese oozed out of the burger and melded with the lacey edges to create an impeccable bite, I'm still thinking of it a week later. I can't wait to try more burger renditions on the menu because this one definitely got high marks. There are other things on the menu as well if a burger isn't your speed but don't expect anything too fancy this is bussin' bar food that pairs exceptionally with a brew.
