My wife and I were out trying to find a really good burger on a Monday. A lot of burger places are closed. We found Main burger online and decided to give it a try. We both ordered the single classic burger and one of us got the combo . Burgers were good. I was not a fan of the French fries, but my wife enjoyed them. The staff was friendly and courteous. The store was very casual and a little busy. We will probably return in the near future. read more

My girlfriend and I went in after a show at the Nile around 10pm. Counter service was pleasant, clean and casual presentation, the menu looked good (a bit steep however, $20+ for a double cheeseburger combo). Found out the place is owned by a local chef who's been nominated for a James Beard award on multiple occasions, so we were pretty excited. Food arrives a little quick, thats alright. BUT.. the fries were really cold. No exaggeration, absolutely dead upon arrival. Took one bite, they are cold AND stale. I take them up to the counter and let the lady know, she obliges. The cooks crack a joke across the counter about how they dont do hot fries. We dig into the burgers, and they're fine. A little dry, and needed some salt but I'm not mad about it. Price didn't really reflect the quality. However, the fries come back--they didn't even bother to make a fresh batch. They clearly just refried the stale fries. They came back to the table hot, but extremely dry. The texture was like eating stale cereal. These are easily the worst fries I've had from a burger place in memory. Extremely disappointing experience given the price point and hype. I am a big believer in the PHX food scene and its roster of Chefs, and was excited to find out that this placed was dreamt up by the face of Espiritu and Chiwas. Given that, I am reluctant to pay a premium for food of average quality. That being said, maybe the fries just suck, maybe it was the time we went in? Not sure. I am sure I won't be going back anytime soon though. read more

Finally went to check out Main Burgers on a Sunday afternoon. It was a lil busy, but since this place has opened it has stayed busy. After checking out the menu I went with a Chiwas burger. It was an all beef patty, queso asadero, roasted green chili, grilled onions, ham, lettuce and house sauce. I also pairs it with cheese fries. I wanted to love this! It had everything I love. But unfortunately the burger was too salty for me to enjoy. Glad to see Main Burgers as an added addition to downtown Mesa. read more

Just tried this new place. They have a limited menu, 3 burger types and 2 hot dogs. I got the Chiwas that has sautéd onions and green chilies and a queso. It falls apart as you eat it so caution. The flavors are great! The fries are good but I've had better. Combos are $13 with Coke products in the fountain. It's on Main Street in a renovated Subway. Good amount of indoor and outdoor seating. Good new place. read more

We are two burgers. One order fries. Cheesecake. No pics as we hunkered down quickly! I had the Sonoran burger DOUBLE patty (ohhh yeah!!!) sans the onions. Awesome burger. Crispy edges. Moist. Flavor up the ying yang - so enjoy that extra punch only the owners of the taco shop dare give us. Bun was nice. 10 stars on that burger seasoning. That little tiny powerhouse pepper...dang it always gets me ...was a bit much for me, but I ate it all. I always try it the chefs way first. It's a reorder the same for me again ...just no c-pepper - lol. Husband liked the regular burger. He wanted to judge only the beef and he smokes. Fries were awesome so enjoy that old fashioned crisp texture and bite most people enjoy. We consumed a caramel cheesecake Mexican style - filling and satisfying but don't expect your New York style. It was a Friday night. Music streaming softly an easy going jazzy vibe...people chatting. I'll be back for a Sonoran dog. The border from Yuma to Tucson has been my home and I cut my adult teeth on Sonoran food all my life. The owners nailed MAIN BURGER ... come try it. read more

Delicious food. Fast & super friendly staff. We showed up with 35+ people including 18 teenaged hockey players, and we had a great meal on the patio. Probably one of the best team dinners. Thank you Main Burger for a great experience! read more

Came in tonight to see what all the fuss is about. Service was actually very quick considering it was a busy Friday evening. Inside had a few tables, and there was some patio space as well. The food was very delicious, but I do wish it was a bit bigger considering the price point. I got the classic single combo, and my bestie got the chiwas burger. She did mention loving the chiwas, although I did not get to fully try it . The classic was very tasty, really loved the sauce and the crunchy pickles. The only downside is that the bun seemed the get soggy very quickly, next time I will ask for an extra toasted bun to see if that helps. The fries were good, but really nothing to rave about. I'm not picky about fries, so they did the job. I would definitely come back next time I have a hankering for a burger in downtown Mesa. read more

Me and the family tried it out finally! And it was worth the hype for sure, the buns were soft and the meat had so much flavor! The Sonoran burger was absolutely delicious I can not wait to try the other options they have! Juan was super nice and pointed us all in the right direction and the patio has a very nice vibe! Definitely a comeback place for us read more

I'd wanted to try this new restaurant in downtown Mesa since it comes from the folks who created Tacos Chiwas. I had the classic burger single patty combo. I felt like the meat had really good seasoning and I liked the sauce, which made it a satisfying burger. Prices seem a little high - but if you make it a combo for $13 it's really not that much more than the fast food places. (And this is better quality, hands down.) My only complaint is that I could taste that "old oil" taste in the fries where they maybe should have changed the oil in the fryer. I'm not sure we'd make this a special destination but we'd definitely come back if we are in the area. read more

I was so stoked for the newest Downtown Mesa addition, Main Burger. Taco Chiwas is one of m favorites, so to hear they were starting up another project down the street - say less! It was a welcomed upgrade from the previous rundown Subway for sure. The building and aesthetic itself is super cute. It's very bright, love the overall design and burgerman logo/mascot. Its a fast casual spot, with counter service, where they hand you a number and bring it out, just like their Taco Chiwas counterpart. Service is super friendly and they helped answer all our questions. They offer a great exterior patio and a decent amount of indoor seating. The menu itself is relatively simple featuring three burger options, a classic, a Sonora and the Chiwas, of course mexican flavor focused. You can get the burgers as a single, double with both having a combo option. The classic, is exactly what you would expect, the sonora is essentially like a sonoran dog, but on a burger - though they also do offer a sonoran dog option! The Chiwas is their Taco Chiwas taco staple, but on a burger, with pepper, asadero cheese, ham and other accoutrements. I went for the double chiwas burger combo, which is $19 dollars and includes a fountain drink and side of fries then added a side of spicy. ketchup. My husband got a single chiwas and a sonoran dog. Everything had great flavor. The patties themselves are quite thin, smashburger style, so I do not think I would ever get a single patty, as far as protein ratio goes. The fries were quite salty, good, I prefer a bit less saltiness. My husband loved his dog and his single burger, but agrees the double is the way to go. I did really enjoy it, a bit pricey for overall amount, but I suppose that's to be expected now in today's economy. Definitely worth a visit and will be returning o try some of their other offerings, including seasonal cheesecake or ice cream! read more

Great burger joint in the heart of DTN Mesa. Limited options - 3 burgers and 1 hotdog. Fries available as well. Simple queue up and order up kind of joint. Lines were present, but moved quickly. I opted for the Sonora burger. Very tasty! Nicely thin, slightly salty, crusty patties. Bun was good as well. Fries were crispy, hot, and slightly salty. Loved it! Worth a trip. N*joy read more

Burgers were amazing I'm not a smash burger person but this was another level of greatness will be. Coming back in the future service is amazing as well read more

Found Main St. Burger an on IG Reel. So we decided we had to give it a try. The owner is a James Beard award winning Chef. If you're a foodie, like myself then you know! We walked in on a Sunday around 11:30. As we walked through the parking lot you could smell the deliciousness. We walked up to the counter, the cashier was nice. I ordered a Sonoran Double Combo, with a bacon wrapped hot dog. My wife got the single classic combo, with the spicy ketchup Service was fast, and the food came out and looked fantastic. The Burgers were so fresh and tasty. The Sonoran burger had a little heat, which was good. The spicy ketchup was the Bomb! The French fries are very good. Just like in & out, just a little thicker, which is a good thing. The Sonoran hot dog, was a little messy, but so flavorful. If you want a great burger, give this place a try. Definitely in my top 3 burgers in Arizona. read more

Main Burger - Sonoran Double combo! - Burgers Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Tried out this cute place tonight conveniently located right on Main with parking behind the restaurant. Menu is limited but that's ok. They focus on burgers and they are done great. Seating is limited inside due to their popularity but we found a table just in time. Young man delivering orders to the tables and clearing plates. We had the classic burgers and the only thing we would want would be tomatoes. . We also order the cheese fries that come with bacon and chilis. Yum! Don't pass this place up. Sooo good. We will be back. read more

This is a place that shows you can do something well with a twist and be extremely successful instead of trying to reinvent the wheel. Although it can get pricy it is always worth it. Their quality and quantity does equate. The cheese fries are a favorite. The Horchata quite decent. And the classic burger... impeccable. I highly recommend this place everytime someone asks for a good local place. read more

Cute, Instagramable spot! It's a solid burger. I had the Chiwas and my bf had the Sonora. The Chiwas was better in my opinion (more of a personal preference as this one has green chili which I really like). However, the Sonora was overly salty. My BF had the hotdog as well which was overly salty. The fries were made perfect though. Overall, I'd go back. The service is friendly and quick. It's worth a stop if you're in the area. read more

Very very tasty burgers. I had the Chiwas(single) and the Sonora(double). Very flavorful and very juicy. The fries were good too and well seasoned. I also got the cheesecake and it was delicious. Unfortunately, it's a bit expensive. I ended up spending 40$ with tax on a double burger combo(19$), a single burger(9$), and a cheesecake(10$). While the cheesecake was good, it's not 10$ good. It was worth checking out, but there are some other good local burger places with better prices and just as tasty. read more

Came here on a whim and I am so glad we did. The burgers were fresh with incredible flavor. You could tell the cheese sauce was made fresh and was perfect or dipping fries. I got the Chiwas burger and my husband got the Sonora. Both were cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. We will definitely be back. read more

1st visit. Wife got Sonoran burger with fries and I got Sonoran Hot Dog. Both were excellent. Fries were good. I also had a Pineapple Aqua Fresca which was wonderful! We will be back and soon! read more

Everyone there seemed to like working there . Order was taken right away and Food came out quickly. The double burger was messy but tasted great. I had it Sonoran style. The bacon on this burger is very unique They offer spicy mayo for 50¢ and it is definitely not worth it. Not only was it not spicy it just tasted like rancid ketchup. Now having a great burger can be ruined by one thing, not great fries. The French fries were definitely not up to par. Not only were they not piping hot but most of them were little pieces less than an inch. The bad spicy ketchup may have made it even worse. Come for the burger and if they improve the fries and just get rid of the spicy ketchup this place can be a hit. read more

When I heard that the owners of Espiritu were opening up a burger shop, I knew we had to try it. My wife and I arrived for the soft launch, the grand opening and a few times after that. My go to is the Chiwas burger and my wife is a fan of the classic. You cannot go wrong with any of the burgers on the menu. Their burgers are very tasty and have distinct flavors from one another. They offer bottle sodas and have fountain drinks as well. I'm a big french fry guy, and if I have one complaint, it's that they only offer one size. Maybe they'll read this review and offer a larger size for the big boned customers, like me. Every time we've gone in to order, the lines are pretty long, but do not let it fool you. They move pretty fast and they have everything down to a science by now. If you're pressed for time or want a delicious burger, give Main Burger a shot. You'll be happy that you did. read more

I typically don't care for Sonoran dogs because the quality of the hot dog is really bad. I noticed that on the menu they were using all beef hot dogs so I thought I give it a try. The guy at the front counter was really excited for me as when I ordered it. The roll was super fresh, and the hot dog was snappy and juicy. It was messy but they give you a roll of paper towels. read more

We drove past this burger joint a few months ago and were passing buy and decide to give them a try. There was nooooo one in there when we went in.m, but we have drove by when it's packed. I'll start by saying $19 for a double combo is a reach. We ordered 1 Sonora (they said it's the most popular) and the original. yall it's not worth it. The hamburger was buttery, it was soft and had a melting texture. Aside from that there wasn't much flavor. The fries were decent, but once they got cold it they were hard. Honestly in n out is better especially for the price. ‍ With there not being busy at all every table has crumbs and food on them. I had to clean our own table before we sat down. Customers service wasn't too welcoming or helpful. Personally there wasn't anything that left our taste buds screaming. read more

Delicious burgers! Great customer service and great prices. Dessert includes fabulous cheesecake and soft serve, homemade! Highly recommend this place 10/10 read more

Finally got to try this new burger place on a Friday night and the Chiwas Burger hit the spot! I wish I had a bigger appetite to try something else but I will be going back in the near future. I see a few post regarding the music so maybe the restaurant changed it up because I felt like the vibes were great and could enjoy my meal with the tunes being played. Staff was very polite as well when ordering and explaining the menu to us. read more

A nice quaint family owned burger joint, service was fair- nothing spectacular, but the orders were correct and promptly prepared. Seating was adequate, unfortunately several tables were in need of wiping down. The meal was good and well portioned ( a few members of the family had leftovers but most didn't and felt full). My children really enjoyed the "Red Barqs" soda. read more

Best burgers around. I would give it 5 stars but it is a bit pricey--- still come here whenever I want a burger

Went and finally checked out main burgers and I was a little disappointing. Overall, still good but it was messy AF. I got the double and the house sauce was like soup and make my bun fall apart and hard to eat. Yes, it was still good but I don't like messy burgers. I want it to maintain integrity so I can enjoy it, especially for $25 (burger, drink, and fries) read more

We stopped by on a late Friday night and the place was pretty busy. Placed our order but had to wait for a place to sit. Had a few burgers- chiwas was the favorite! Loved the combination of the chilis, ham and the sauce. Fries are fresh and done really well- just were a bit too salty. Fun vibe with the pink accents - but not as cute when the pink on the paper transfers to your food. We'll definitely give it a 2nd try. read more

What a fun spot in the heart of Downtown Mesa!! There is a small menu of just three different burgers, but they are amazing!! I got the Sonoran Burger and Cheese Fries and both were phenomenal! The cheese fries had this awesome cheese sauce, bacon, and roasted green chiles and the Sonoran burger had these spicy little chilis on it with a crispy square of bacon. I don't know how they got it in that shape, but I am a BIG FAN. There's also a cute little patio you can sit on and watch people as they walk by on Main. The place was packed but the food only took about 10 minutes to be ready. I like how it's an open kitchen too so you can see the chefs making your food in front of you. No alcohol there which was a little sad for me, but we were able to walk across the street to Pedal Haus after and grab a tasty brew after we ate. The burgers were a little small for the price point, but the ingredients were all quality for sure. read more

I've waited a bit since the opening week to try Main Burger. The place was busy and there was a little bit of a wait for food. The staff was great though and handled the crowd well. The remodel looks great and love having patio seating for people watching. The vibe is very lively, especially on the weekend. I was in the mood for a Sonoran dog so I got the hot dog combo. Fries were decent and the dog was just okay. I wish there was a little more spice. I may go back to try a burger but for Sonoran dogs, Mickey's will still be my go to place nearby. read more

Amazing burgers and the service was A+. The vibe is converted subway restaurant turned into burger joint, Nothing fancy. It is very expensive for what it is though. I've never really been a fan of any "smash burger" I think the patties are thin & I feel like a double smash burger is equal to a regular normal burger. But besides the point for a double burger and a regular classic burger and drinks I was out the door for a little over $45. It was a very good burger and I highly recommend trying it. There Mexican twist on the burgers are something I've never had before, I just don't know if I'll be back or if it was totally worth the price value wise I was still hungry after eating the double burger. Definitely not a place to bring the kids, you would break the bank. Definitely worth trying though I've had nothing like it. read more

You know those days when you want a classic, old school burger that you can't really find at big burger chains? Main Burger is the place for that. Everyone that works here has such a great attitude & the shop itself has a laid back, nostalgic feel. No overly complicated menu, options for when you want some oomf, amazing food every time. read more

So, I had the single Patty Sonora style burger. The burger itself had no real flavor not season at all. The onion bacon and sauce was the only flavor. I didn't know they cooked the cheese on the griddle not a fan of that because honestly it's just burnt cheese I know it's a fad doing the "cheese skirt" but in my opinion it's not good if you like it fine but I do not. The service was really nice let him know of my first time there he was helpful the atmosphere is nice as well. I might try it again. read more

They've been open for a little over a month & I have already been here on a weekly basis, so what does that tell you? Armando, Nadia & Roberto have done it again- if you've ever dined at their other downtown Mesa restaurant (Espiritu), then you'd know that they can craft an amazing burger. I was eager for Main Burger to open & they definitely didn't disappoint. Although the menu is limited in offerings, the flavors more than make up for it. You can't go wrong with any of the options- Chiwas and Sonoran both offer some heat and the Classic is great, if a traditional burger is more your jam. Price point is fair, considering the quality of food that you're getting. During peak times, there can be a line but it moves swiftly- there is seating indoors and on the patio & service has always been great! This spot is definitely here to stay! read more

We went today and they had only been open since Tuesday ... so four days. Good foot traffic even before they had a grand opening. Had a single combo and of you are hungry, you will need the double burger. Fries were perfect .its super clean and friendly. Parking is really good. The only thing I did not like was the buttered bun (on top). It looks good, but every bite, your hands are buttery and slippery. It's not close to home, but if we are downtown Mesa, it's on our list to go. Give this new small business a try. Support the little guys read more

We shared a double classic burger meal and tried the hotdog. The hotdog had good flavor, but it was a little too much for me personally with regards to the toppings. Very greasy, but what else would you expect with a bacon wrapped hotdog. The patty itself had a good flavor, although some bites were saltier than others. The issue was the amount of cheese in the burger (2 slices). Unless you really like cheddar cheese, it overpowered the overall burger. I'll come back and try there other burgers, but I'll make sure to ask for less cheese. No complaints about the service, everyone was great. Great outdoor seating, good ambiance. read more
