Great experience. We have visited Killer Burger once before in Tanasbourne, and now Russell Street. Both times the burger, beer and service has been tremendous. We went to a concert at the Wonder Ballroom, and Killer Burger being within walking distance, it was the obvious choice, plus I have been anxious to visit again. I had the Meathead, our daughter had the Classic, and my wife had a Veggie Burger with green chilis. She remarked how good the burger was, and how the vegetables in the patty were so flavorful. The shared tots and fries were also excellent. The service at the front was extremely friendly and efficient. Now I am ready to go back again.

I've had Killer Burger twice now and tasted 4 of their burgers. ALL of them are delicious but my favorite is still the peanut butter burger. I tried it first and can't get enough of it. The smooth runny peanut butter works so well with the salty bacon and delicious juicy burger, trust me your mouth will be watering for more. Their service is excellent and their fries and ranch dipping is also really good, but please try the peanut butter burger!

Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon $15 HH beer/burger/fries deal

Pretty tasty burgers and good value. I've never liked peanut butter much but decided to try their peanut butter pickle bacon burger which is like their thing here. I liked it, not too peanut buttery and went surprisingly well together. In terms of the actual burger, it was pretty good but not the best. The buns could've been better and I don't believe they were toasted which adds a lot and is essential IMO. But for the value it's a great deal. I saw someone complaining they got rid of bottomless fries during happy hour & replaced w/ a beer/burger/fry combo for $15, I would much rather have the beer. There were still plenty of fries for me, u can go to Golden Corral if you want a place to let your children pig out on bottomless fries. It sounds like they probably got rid of that deal because of ppl doing stuff like that.

Order: Jose Mendoza Pros: the burger was not bad. I did expect a heap of frys because the guy said you got a lot. However, that turned out not to be true. Side note, this burger is NOT spicey even with all the peppers. Cons: they took FOREVER to make the burgers and it was hardly busy. Im talking over 30 minutes.

One of the cider drinks

We were looking for pizza, but ended up at this gem getting burgers instead. The merry traveler (me) is in Portland for a conference and needed some food after traveling for many hours. We went to grab a slice of pie (pizza) but the pizza where we stopped looked old and there was no place to sit, so we left. Looking outside we spotted Killer Burgers and decided to give it a try. I ordered the Fun Guy (mushroom and Swiss) burger. It was pretty much perfectly delicious! The cider I drank was also a tasty beverage! Brynn was very kind and helpful - definitely a people person! If only everyone in the public sector worked as hard to make things great for customers. Pros: Brynn, delish burgers, great fries, tasty cider Cons: the tables need some stabilizing so they aren't wobbling all over. One table actually had paper napkins shoved under it to stop the wobble. (I think this was probably a customer solution.)

Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon
Kendra C.

I waited to write this review to make sure that this joint deserves major accolades from me & BOY DOES IT!! I've been here a half dozen times now & I can confidently say that I'm completely in love with the peanut butter pickle bacon burger (not kidding). It's the perfect combination of flavors, as weird as it sounds. If you're looking for something different & are willing to try new things then don't waste any time ordering this burger. Service is always fast, we don't spend much time with the employees but their always friendly. Just your typical burger joint, 2 huge tv's to the side of the shop. A few beers, & ciders on tap as well as canned ones. Great vibe! Love it, wish there was a killer burger in Central Oregon.

Hadn't been in a while but remember the burgers being a little bigger than the one I got. Small handful of fries. For $19.00. No thanks

This is a stunning burger…read more I have come here an embarrassing amount of times since moving back to Portland. The first time I came alone, just a little hungry and a lot broke. So I got the $6 little pleasure burger. A simple, single patty smash burger. It's everything a McDonald's burger wishes it could be - beefy and drippy, a squishy, slightly sweet bun, oozing hot grease without being heavy, lacy and crisp edges, and held together with the right amount of American cheese. It was the perfect amount for that day. Then I returned with my date. Twice. And he brought his coworkers for lunch because he liked it so much. I have had the western and the mushroom burger since, as well as the parm and chive waffle fries. They have nuggets and I'm inclined to believe they're great. The staff is great, it's a small team and they're all there every single day. They care about their product and your experience. The space is a simple counter, not good for large groups. It should be noted that even though their burgers would be great with a beer, they don't seem to have a liquor license! So don't expect an IPA with that shroom burger. Maybe someday!

The water is serve yourself which I actually prefer. There wasn't a ton of seating on the cashier level but there is more seating upstairs which we did not visit to take a look at. There's also plenty of seating outside and covered tent seating. It took about 12-15 minutes for the food to be served which was ideal. While we were waiting, one of the employees started sweeping a rug outside the kitchen but wasn't even making contact with the bristles and the rug?

I also tried the sellwood and I have to say, both are really tasty.

I didn't expect to find good BBQ outside of the south, but this was a pleasant surprise!…read moreAnd honestly, it shouldn't come as a surprise because the food in Portland is some of the best in the country. IMO. This BBQ is Kansas City style, so the sauce is a bit sweeter. We got the brisket, the chicken wings, and sides. We couldn't decide if on the sauce for the wings, so we got all 3 on the side. The Alabama white sauce was A+ The brisket was perfectly tender. It had great flavor and marbling. The wings are full wings with the drummette attached. That's the way to do it! They are smoked and then fried. They got the crisp just right. Let's talk about sides! We got the collard greens, coleslaw, and baked beans. They were all FANTASTIC! The coleslaw is a vinegar coleslaw, which I love. It wasn't the sweet mayonnaise style that most people don't enjoy. It was so good! The collard greens were perfectly flavored and tender! I couldn't have done better myself. The beans were sweet but also savory. Not super sweet, which makes me happy. Very well balanced. The server was super friendly and nice. She explained everything to us and made sure we were happy. They have a bar with various beers. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Very casual but perfect for BBQ. Highly recommend you try this spot!

The other 2 got the pulled pork nachos and shared it and had some even left over. We all liked our meals and would eat there again when in the area.

I got the small Smasher without pickles and with grilled onions and split small fries with my sister. The burger came to the table with pickles but easy to remove on my own. The flavor of the burger was delicious after a long day of walking. The ingredients tasted very fresh. The fries were a good thickness and had a beer battered taste. I love that there's a ketchup bottle for you at the table. You can also grab ketchup packets and other sauces near the fountain drink station. The towel roll at the tables was great. Didn't have to get up and get napkins. The food arrived within 10 minutes of seating. Water cups are available. If you're feeling adventurous you can try the Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon burger. There's two restroom stalls. One of them needed to be cleaned but the employee at the counter was kind enough to warn me. Code is needed to enter the restrooms. There's a changing station, manual flush toilet, automatic towel dispenser, and changing station. The employees were chill and seemed to have a good relationship with each other. There's sports on one tv. The ambiance is a little intense with the music but I didn't notice it until I was done eating because the food was so good.
