Awful sloppy lettuce about a teaspoon portion soggy bun overcooked patty tough!!!  Do yourself a favor avoid

Terrible experience the place used to be good continues to go downhill. Lettuce was old and the size of a teaspoon on a jumbo wet and soggy bun. Meat was overcooked and tough. Not sure who's in charge but there needs to be changes , I'm done !!

I have been to Hamburger Heaven more for breakfast over the years than for lunch or dinner. Mainly because I had a client that was close to the owner very close to this location. We usually met in the mornings and it made sense to come here. For the location and the tastiness. The location near me in Irondale does not do the breakfast. Very disappointing. So when I was over this way earlier in the day, I took advantage for the first time in years. The breakfast I remember, was still really good. This experience was not the best overall. But the tastes were still really good. I got a sausage, egg and cheese breakfast biscuit. The ice in the drink was still top notch. The hash cakes are what I remember. But there were WAY to few with four in my order. Not the best breakfast or best burger in the city with no hesitation. But really solid on both fronts. I will always enjoy a trip to HH.

A better than average fast food burger but by no means the best burger in town. The Jumbo Cheeseburger (minus onions) with Onion Rings combo is my favorite. When I am not quite as hungry or plan to have a larger dinner later the regular Cheeseburger Combo is a good substitute. If you want something different than the usual with your combo, try the cornballs. Today I tried the Slider Combo for something new. It was OK but will not take the place of either of my normal choices. The cheese on the slider was maybe half the size of the patty which barely was visible outside the bun. A little too much bread in the meat to bread ratio IMO. Had the patty been thicker and the cheese fully covering it might move to #2 on my list of choices. I have had the 3 Decker Club before and while very good, despite any intentions otherwise, I have a hard time not ordering a burger when I come to "Hamburger" Heaven. The milkshakes are very good and a large variety of flavors.

Really good burger! I stopped in to Hamburger Heaven and tried the #4 combo which consists of a Cheeseburger, fries, & a large drink. The place was really clean & the service was really fast ( got mine to go). It is decorated with interesting memorabelia from the University of Alabama & Auburn. All in all, it was a good meal - the drink was cold, the fries were average, but the burger was pretty dang good! BIG burger! The only drawback was that I paid a little over $8.00 for the combo and only realized after the fact that the drink cost me over 2 bucks! Nice place to get a burger!

There isn't many burger joints around that actually make everything fresh and some even try to cut costs by getting processed food. I've always wandering how good the food is and since I was in the area with my best friend, I'd suggested that we have lunch at Hamburger Heaven. They have more than just hamburgers for anyone that want something alternative. If you loved there special sauce,( I didn't care for it ) you can purchase a bottle to have at home. The ordering process is just like any other fast food restaurants where you place your order and they'll call your ticket number when it's ready. I ended up ordering a jumbo cheeseburger combo which came with a large drink and a small order of fries. The burger was a good size (which I'd devour the heck out of) and they could've given me more portion on the French fries. I admire them cooking everything fresh and the only issue is that the burger had too much toppings going on which was making everything slide off the bun, but it was a big burger so I should've expected that. I don't know about the other locations, but this one is a solid plus in my book.

This was my first time coming to hamburger heaven and overall it was just ok. I noticed how small the menu is nothing really to choose from at all its probably the smallest menu I've seen out of all the places I have been to in Alabama. I wanted to get something other than a burger so I decided to try their grilled chicken sandwich and it was ok I tasted no seasoning on the chicken at all it was to dry I've had much better sandwiches. The fires were not good either they tasted like they warm and were not fresh at all even though customer service was good and I didn't have to wait long for my food at the same time I want hot and fresh food just a big disappointment

It is clear that chef D'Angelo cooks from the heart. Our server Trey was kind, pleasant and very engaging. Service was quick. The French toast melted into your mouth and was perfectly prepared. Delicious. Or as my wife put it, "Slamming !!" The Ambiance was excellent, a combination of cozy and community very conversational. I had the omelette, grits and a pancake. Everything was seasoned to perfection. I will come back and bring friends. Chef kiss.

Overall it was pretty good and we both wished we had ordered two of the catfish and grits because we ate it to the last drop -- it was so good. The fish was crispy and flavorful and the grits were creamy and delicious. The drinks were okay and the bacon and sausage was good too, but nothing special. It's really just the fish & grits I can't stop thinking about. Oh yes and the beignets were sweet, hot, fresh and delicious.

First of all the chicken was superb! Crispy and flavorful, yet not dry. I adored The Squawking…read moreGoat, all flavors worked well together. We loved the bacon. Hubby wasn't a fan of the asiago/bacon waffles, which come with the Chix and Waffles; I tried them and it is an acquired after taste. Neither of us were big fans of the smashed potatoes, although the sauce was refreshing. We wondered why they are "smashed," but round? Overall, food was satisfactory! Service was quick and helpful, and it wasn't as busy after 9. It is more of a community based set up. We appreciated the inclusive environment and staff, but we did have to move after being next to the dirty dish station and having multiple angry outbursts from the young lady working/cleaning and overly loud placement of dishes. We gave her the benefit of the doubt.

I walk in and to your right you go up to order your breakfast items. Good selection for quick breakfast dining . Nothing too overwhelming to decide on. I choose the breakfast hash with a side of grits with coffee to drink. They call you up once your food is ready. I ordered the hash and a side of grits.. They were OK.. I do prefer my grits a little thicker a little cheesier . They have more of a contemporary style of grits which it was OK, but I'm just kinda finicky when it comes to some old-fashioned grits. I tried the maple coffee which was pretty good. Had more than my fair share. There is also, seating inside and outside. Come and check this place out.

The Essential was such an unexpected find during our trip through Alabama. We weren't expecting to…read morestumble across such an elegant restaurant serving truly elevated food, but it ended up being one of our favorite meals. I ordered the seafood pasta, and you could immediately tell the pasta was homemade. It was fresh, perfectly cooked, and the seafood was beautifully prepared. My daughter had the spaghetti, and my husband ordered the Waldorf salad, which was just as thoughtfully put together. Our waitress also recommended the hummus and house pickles, and I'm so glad we listened. Both were fresh, unique, and the perfect way to start the meal. From the food to the service, everything felt polished without being pretentious. It was one of those meals where every dish was executed with care and attention to detail. Overall, The Essential was such a pleasant surprise and proof that you can find five star dining experiences in the most unexpected places. If you're anywhere near Birmingham, this place is absolutely worth the stop.

The interior has a nostalgic, warm vibe and would be a great setting for a date night. Our server was awesome! He was friendly, attentive, and recommended some great food and drink options. I also really enjoyed the open-kitchen concept, as I always like being able to see the food being prepared. My only concern was with a couple of things I noticed in the kitchen. Since the kitchen is completely open and visible to guests, I think extra attention should be given to sanitation and overall presentation. I noticed one of the cooks drinking while preparing food, and another wiped his nose with his arm while working. Although he didn't use his hand, it still left me feeling a little uneasy. When guests can see directly into the kitchen, those small details really matter. Aside from that, we enjoyed our experience, and I do think this is a place worth trying at least once. The atmosphere, service, and recommendations from our server were definitely highlights of our visit.
