The burger and chili were so damn good! So was the shake. Great staff as well. Can't wait to go back.

SERVICE - located on the border between soho and west village - near the spring street subway station - very limited outdoor seating in coveted heated patio with tables set up for 1-2 people - orders packaged for takeout - food takes longer to serve than expected for a fast food establishment - service was okay - no restrooms - ambiance good for a casual meal MENU - all plant based burgers and fries - vegan/vegetarian - average price FOOD - chili (5/10): mixed bean chili with impossible sausage chunks. This was oddly sweet which I found to be off putting. It tasted like baked beans but with less of a tomato flavor and more of the brown sugar. I was hoping for something more spicy and chili pepper forward. The impossible chunks were okay though quite ground up into the mix so their flavor was distributed and not very strong. - waffle fries (7/10): these are free on Fridays which is a perk. They are okay, though I wish they were crispier and slightly less salty. WOULD I GO BACK? I was not a huge fan so likely not. read more

Straight off the plane and this was the first place I wanted to try in NY. Vegan burger, fries, and a milkshake... oh yea. That burger was delicious, I should've gotten a double, seriously (or another burger)! I'm a fry kinda girl and these were cooked to perfection and they were waffle fries! Also got a chocolate milkshake made with oat milk, so so good! This walk up was very effective with service and had a few seating to enjoy your food. Cute and fast with getting the order out.

We were staying at a nearby hotel- and stumbled upon this spot in the wee hours of the morning. This location had been vacant for a few years, so we were surprised to see a bright yellow building with people sitting at tables. We ordered burgers and fries. Everything was piping hot when we got back to our room. These were hands down- THE BEST impossible burgers that we have ever eaten. The waffle fries were perfect. Next time we'll splurge on shakes. If you're looking for a late night vegetarian option- highly recommend checking them out. Service was fast and friendly. read more

Unfortunately have to admit this is one of the worst vegan burgers I've had :( I've been a vegetarian for many years and had walked past this restaurant so many times and finally decided to check it out. It was about $13 for a double vegan patty burger. Both the taste and consistency were similar to rubber. It tasted very fake and was not worth the visit or the amount paid :( giving it a three stars since the order was ready fast. read more

Food was great . Service was great and warm . Ambiance was nostalgic . Quick bite . First time eating impossible burger and it was delish. Along with the seasoned waffle fries . Keep up the good work. Too bad I didn't get to taste the chili it was all sold out. Says alot about it. But I will Be back next time . read more

Popped in here for a quick bite. Their soft serve machine was down (it's giving McDonald's lol) so I just ordered a jr burger and fries. Both came out piping hot and tasted fresh!

Unexpected find! Was craving a burger but cutting back on beef recently. Stumbled upon this place online and figured I'd give it a try, not expecting much. Honestly, so many plant-based burger joints are either mediocre or just all taste the same. This was a really solid burger. I got their standard (OG Betr) with everything (lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions, vegan cheese). Honestly, if you weren't paying attention you could be fooled into thinking this was just a decent regular burger from a fast food joint. Two smashed patties, great flavor. I was a little concerned about the cheese, but it really worked. If you're a veggie or vegan, or if you just are limiting meat--or just curious--it's worth a visit. No great seating, though some outdoor countertops, so maybe avoid if the weather is crappy. read more

I wanted this to be great, but it was simply okay. I'm no chef so I won't claim to know what would have made it better. There wasn't tons of flavor in the sandwich. read more

This was my first time trying Jerrell's. This is a solid vegan burger. I've had a couple vegan burgers and this one is just right. The flavor is there and the textures are on point. The loaded chili fries were pretty good. The flavor of the chili was moderate but it compliments the fries and has a subtle sweet taste to it. The cookies and cream milkshake was good. It was smooth and balanced. For a spot with limited seating and spacing the service is pretty good. They accommodate for the space really well. read more

Looking for a quick dinner option as I waited for the Summer in the City event to start, I decided to try a Lil' Betr burger at a stand located at Lincoln Center. The price was reasonable, and if I hadn't known that the burger was Impossible meat, I would have not been able to tell the difference. The burger was delicious and juicy. I also appreciated the ingenious burger wrapping -- I was able to enjoy my burger cleanly without having to touch it with my likely dirty hands. Based on this positive experience, I plan to stop by the actual location to try another burger, as well as their sides and dessert, the next time I am in Soho! read more

I was excited to try Jerrell's vegan burgers following an after party that had sliders and fries but no vegan option for myself. The shop is small with a few outdoor tables to dine. Definitely a grab-and-go kind of vibe. Let's talk about the burger itself. It's an impossible burger with vegan cheese you can get at the grocery store, but the way they prepare it together gave me that charred taste that I enjoyed growing up. For $14, it's a pricy burger but it did taste good and hit the junk food cravings. The Chili Cheese Waffle Fries however came in the smallest container ever. For nearly $10, I was expecting at least double the amount of fries for a rather small amount of vegan cheese and chili on top. We also tried a Cookies N' Cream Oat Milkshake, and that was a good treat. Overall, the meal was good but a bit pricy for the amount of food that we ended up getting. I'd come back for the burger if I was really wanting one but would skip the loaded fries. read more

So, the only thing that keeps this from being a 5-star establishment is the customer service. It is not the people but the app and overall communication about what they do or do not have available. The day we visited my wife ordered chili cheese fries and they charged her for them even though they didn't have any available. It took about a month for her to get credit back via our credit card company. The food, especially the impossible burger and soft serve, was awesome. It is the best VEGAN burger I have ever had. The lack of customer service and seating holds this establishment back. Eat, Drink, and Be Merry, my Friends!! read more

Vegan burger joint run out of a little storefront with a few bistro tables. Love the smash style approach to the impossible patty and thought the other ingredients tasted very fresh. Not a bad deal ($9 for the Lil Betr) either! Service could've been a bit faster (our waffle fries were a little cold... so I'm thinking they forgot to bring out our order when it was ready?) but maybe that was just the pre-burger hangry-ness talking. read more

This has to be the best vegan burger that I've ever had! I had the double which tasted amazing, very hot and freshly made. When I was a little kid, I always wanted a Big Mac, like my dad got. But he said I was too little to finish one. The first time that he said OK and let me get one, it was the best thing ever, though I was stuffed. This burger actually brought back that memory, except it's not beef this time. read more

Literally the best burger that I've ever had. EVER. Better than real beef burgers really. This place is more of a pick up and go type of establishment, even though they have outdoor seating. You go and order at the window, then wait until your food is ready to pick it up. We got the burger w the chili cheese fries. Also, my friend got the pineapple milkshake and I got the oreo one. Keep in mind, these are made with oatmilk. The burger and chili cheese fries, VEGAN. Everything was so delicious and tasted better than actual dairy and meat products. Usually when people hear something is vegan, they'd expect it to taste nasty or a boring copy of a meal made with meat. This was completely the opposite. Definitely would recommend! read more

Jerrell's makes one of the best vegan burgers in the city. Their burgers are virtually indistinguishable from meat versions (since they're made with Impossible), and I really enjoyed my lil burger (the single patty burger) there. I also love waffle fries, and theirs were great, nice and crispy. The only challenge with coming here is that there's not much seating outside, and you're at the mercy of the weather, but the burgers are so good that it's worth it. read more

Honestly, this tasted 88% like a real burger. What's memorable was the added jalapeños had a slightly Smokey kick to it which made the burger go up a few notches in my book. The pineapple milkshake was a nice touch as well, not sugary sweet or too rich at all. I'll definitely be back at Jerrell's, but if an odd location so I hope they franchise up soon but given I'm in the area I'll more than likely swing by next week. Hope y'all enjoy it as much as I did. read more

I might have had the best vegan burger of my life at Jerrell's. The impossible Patty's were so delicious and the OG came with impossible bacon and jalapeños and vegan cheese. If you're a fan of chili theirs is also quite good. Paired with the crispiest, the crispiest, waffle fries I've had ever, it was so delicious. We also got a refreshing pineapple shake which in my opinion is the best and most elite shake since it was so refreshing and didn't contain any dairy! (Their shakes are made with oat milk). I'm so glad I got a chance to go here, whenever I'm craving a burger I'm gonna make my way to Jerrell's read more

So excited for their Newark location to open so I can get my fix whenever I travel. read more

Whoa! Totally impressed with this spot and would highly recommend. I would even say it's a vegan alternative to In-and-Out but better because it's black owned. The ice cream machine was out of service (giving McDonalds vibes Jerrell! lol) but the owner was there and I overheard him say they're working on it. Someone did say their milkshakes are really good so I'll have to come back to give those a try. It is a small location, they have standing room on the side with a ledge to eat and a couple of places to sit outside, some with coverage. Definitely check this place out. I'll totally be back soon! read more

I heard about this place through a friend and so happy I went on a solo date. The burger was sooooooo good and was made with love. This place is a hole in a wall, very tiny space but the burgers (VEGAN) was well made and prepared with all that juiciness. Let's not forget about that secret sauce that made it all tied in so perfectly. What I could do without, the fries. It wasn't seasoned at all, no salt or pepper, just very blah and lukewarm. Definitely coming back and ordering the super burger with all the trimmings minus the fries. read more

If you put this burger and a hamburger in front of a carnivore I can almost guarantee you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. From the appearance of the patty to the taste it's impossible to tell this is 100% plant based. The burger itself is so beautifully put together it could well be the famed krabby patty brought to life or a mouthwatering burger off a fast food commercial (which never lives up to those expectations of presentation). These guys killed it. Just look how perfect it is for yourself. Service wasn't anything to comment on positively or negatively. The employee who served me seemed like he didn't want to be there and had a deadpan expression the entire time lol. Maybe the poor guy was sweltering in the tiny space. When I got my burger it was piping hot and stayed that way until the very last bite. It's a sizable burger and for the cost it's pretty fair. I legit went back to work right after and told a vegetarian patient about it not even thirty minutes later. Will probably pop by again for the loaded fries. read more

I just waited over an hour for a burger, my little sister had to get home and they took way to long to start putting the meat on the grill

Plant based burgers! To preface, I am not plant based. The burger looks exactly like a real burger, which is why I was very excited to try this place! However, the patties did taste like impossible burger meat. You could tell this isn't a "real burger." The bun was an everything seasoning, which I'm also not the biggest fan of. The texture was not as chewy as meat and more on the soft side. The waffle fries were FANTASTIC though. It was flavorful, perfectly salted, and crispy. There's not really "indoor" seating. You order at a window and there's 2 tables, covered by the roof. I would describe it as an extension of the place. It took about 10 minutes to get our food and we could hear it grilling inside, so it was made to order. Overall, probably wouldn't go back, but will def say it's a good alternative for others! read more

This used to be my go to vegan burger joint. I haven't had it in about a year and was excited to try it again. We ordered and specifically asked for chili cheese fries. When we were given our order there were just plain fries and the back. When we inquired about this, we were told that they didn't have the items for chili cheese fries ready at the time, so they took it upon themselves and gave us plain fries. They asked if we wanted the chili cheese fries and and we said yes. The young man walked away and came back a few minutes later asking us to pay for the chili cheese fries at whip point we simply left. when we got home, we found out the amount of fries was laughable. The burger was decent. Service and communication is not what it used to be sadly. Maybe the New Jersey location gets the great service I came to love here. read more

I've been dying to try this black owned business, and it's vegan!! Yum! I actually wanted to try another restaurant week spot, but when i got there it wasn't what i expected it to be. So i left out, and decided on this spot instead. Not a bad compromise outside the fact that it's a vegan burger joint. I ordered 2 OG better burgers with impossible Pattie's, and the works. I also ordered 2 waffle fries and some sauce, the jerrell sauce and a garlic aioli. That was sooo good with the fries. I really enjoyed the burger. The buns were soooo nice and soft, the burger was seasoned!!! I mean i tasted garlic powder and everything. It was sooo delicious. I will definitely return here. The service was great. The guy who took my order was very nice, personable and cute lol. It's a take out spot so not much ambiance. There was some people sitting outside eating at the tables they had available. It was cold that night too. I will come back here tho. Cuz i enjoyed it. Highly recommend if you're looking for a vegan alternative that holds up to regular burgers. The price was a bit pricey. I paid almost $50 for 2 burgers, 2 fries and 2 sprites. Yikes! See pics below. read more

I was way to hungry to wait to take a photo, but the burgers were awesome! We ordered a single and a double with a side of waffle fries and a chocolate shake.

We'd definitely come here again, and have gotten their food many times before through door dash. I highly recommend! read more
