    Chiwas Burger (Single)
    Lauren I.

    Ever since our first bite of the Chiwas burger, we've been hooked. It instantly takes us back to our trips to Mexico & enjoying those unforgettable street-style burgers. The meat is always cooked perfectly, and the toppings and spices are packed with flavor. The fries come out hot every time and are seasoned just right. And the horchata?! Pure cinnamony goodness - definitely a must-try. On top of the great food, the employees are consistently friendly & make us feel genuinely welcome every time we come back. Definitely a place to try.

    Single patty classic
    Gustavo G.

    Downtown Mesa is forming into an "it" place for food. Opting out of the chain restaurants of most of vibey strips in AZ (DT Gilbert, Scottsdale, etc...). Instead are a bunch of small business owner making their stake in this world. Main Burgers is just that. Right across the street from one of the few chain restaurants "Pedal Haus" is this cool little burger joint. They have a nice musical vibe with a varied mix. Very varied. Super cool. My wife had the classic burger and fries. She said it was delicious. Ranking up there with anything else she likes... The Five Guys, 7 Brothers, or In N Outs of the world. Sesame seed buns are always a plus. I had the Chiwas Burger Protein style. The patties were cooked great with just enough seasoning to give the meat flavor but not take away from the flavor of the meat. The sauce was amazing. It added a sweetness that distract from the small subtle bite of the spicy peppers. Full disclosure, I've been dabbling in spicy lately but still very much overreacted to anything over a super mild. The kicker was the slice of ham on top. Something about mixing pork and beef together that just works. In all this a great burger spot. What you are looking for when you want to go out and have a burger and beer and just chill for a minute.

    Chiwas burger and classic burger

    Food was really good, not sure if I came at a bad time, but took 15 minutes to place an order food did come out quick, no ice in the soda machine and soda came out pretty warm, will definitely be back. Food was amazing.

    Burger with raw onions
    Julian E.

    Not gonna lie, I had to come here two days in a row to give a solid opinion. The first day I got a classic double and it had caramelized onions on it. Now, I truly think it's a sin to put caramelized onions On a classic unless you're at a White Castle but that's me. Day two, I ask for raw onions and they were more than happy to make it that way. They literally cook this on a grill right in front of you so you know it's done exactly right. The patty is perfectly salted and fried by a master grill man. This is a burger to champion fat and drunk people. Do you want to call me a liar? There is literally a brewery right across the street... test me bitch!!! Also, not to mention... they also serve Cider Corps beer if you are lazy!!! This is a perfect sober day burger or a drunk evening burger. Highly recommend...

    This spot is a great go to for a quick bite, especially when you want something easy but still really good. We love coming here for a quick dinner, and the food never disappoints. You can tell the owners know what they're doing. They also own several well known restaurants in the area, and that experience shows in the quality and flavor. The burgers are elevated with Southwest and Mexican inspired ingredients that make them stand out from your typical burger joint. They also offer wings and salads, so there's something for everyone. Everything we've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Definitely a solid option when you want a fast, delicious meal without sacrificing quality. We were so hungry I ate without taking a picture! Guess we need to come back

    Burger Chiwas
    Travis C.

    We were in the area for an event and when I saw a joyful burger mascot I knew it was go time. WOW wow wow, first they were busy, but the service was amazing. The order taker knew the food, made recommendations, and even brought us our food. The big draw is green chilis. I love me some green chilis and woohoo. Their burger chiwas and breakfast burger were both amazing, juicy, spicy, and cooked to perfection. Their fries were crisp even with the cheese on top which was a big win. I want to come back and try their other options. Nice little burger joint vibe, great place to eat while in downtown Mesa

    Was in Mesa for a conference and stepped out for lunch. Looked up a few different places and ended up here at main burger! The menu is very simple which is nice because you don't have a million decisions to make. The service was great and despite being busy, they were really prompt on every order placed. The burger was very smash burger style but with house sauce and sautéed onions, it was the perfect amount of crispy and moist. The flavors were on point. The fries were hand cut style and crispy which I love but a few were just a tad too hard. Soft drinks and free refills really made this place shine. It is a tiny place so if you go right at lunch time you might wait for a table. Would definitely come back here again. Happy to have stumbled across this place!

    Arrive at lunch time place was packed but the line and orders were coming out in a very good pace I got the Sonoran burger how it comes as soon I took the first bite I know what my girl was going to said a bit a Sal and yes so you will have a big explosion on your mouth of flavors but all the burger is great on my top 3 places for burgers my wife got a double bacon cheeseburger with pickles no house sauce she likes see the truth flavor you also find her review.

    Went to Main Burger shortly after it opened up in downtown Mesa. There was a ton of hype around it so I had to check it out. It's a cool little spot, inside vibes are very much like an old time burger diner, which I loved. The staff were friendly and helpful. I got the Double Chiwas (roasted green chile) burger. It was pretty good! It was definitely worth a try but not a jaw dropping experience. Scale of 1 - 10, I'd go back but not going out of my way to make it happen.

    I am glad we finally made it out here. I had a tough day after work last week, and my husband ended up not making dinner so we got some burgers! They have their own parking lot, but right behind them is public and free parking with many more spaces. The inside is a little small, but there is a plenty of seating outside. They make everything to order, so you can smell the grill once the order goes in. We ordered the Classic burger, single patty, the hotdog, and a cheesecake. The classic burger was pretty good - loved their pickles! Next time, we will try the other burger styles as it might give us the little oomph we were hoping for. The hotdog though was TOP TIER. It came with beans, cojita, chilies - it was just a dream. This was a great spot to try out, and the aesthetic was pretty cute too!

    Wanted a quick but quality burger. Found this place and decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. It has a relaxing diner vibe. I decided to order the single Sonora burger combo and added pickles. Yummy! Overall I must say: Portions were just enough. Ingredients were flavorful. Service was quick and friendly.

    Stopped by for dinner and it stayed busy the whole time we were there. We were helped a few mins after we arrived and the cashier was friendly. I ordered a plain double cheeseburger combo with toppings on side and my sister had a double Chiwas burger. We sat outside on the patio and the cashier brought us our food. The burgers came out hot and smelled delicious. My cheeseburger was good. The meat was cooked well, juicy, and had a lot of flavor. The chiwas burger was really messy and the bread quikcly became very soggy and it fell apart after a few bites. The flavor was good though. In total paid $43 for two burgers, one drink, and order of fries.

    New burger joint in DT Mesa, used to be the old Subway sandwich shop. This is an upgrade for sure but I really wanted to like it more. Came in wanting to give 5 stars. Starting with the positives- it's very cute now, it was quick, and food was decent. I ordered the Chiwas burger -- single patty. Shared some of my friend's fries. It Was good, but not great. I thought I would be wowed but I just wasn't. I am a self proclaimed burger lover, and so I enjoyed it but I thought given the new place, higher prices, and mention of award winning chef it would be one of the better burgers I've had. It wasn't. And the connection to tacos Chiwas set my expectations higher since I love them. I might give it another try next time I'm over in the area. Not opposed to it. I actually see this place as 3.5/5 but Yelp doesn't do half stars (even though they should) and I don't want to down rate a new local place trying to get business going. So it's 4 stars with that in mind.

And once you try it, you realize why it's so popular. The ice cream tastes incredibly fresh and homemade. My personal favorite is the honey lavender--it's perfectly balanced. The lavender flavor is distinct and aromatic without being overpowering, which is rare since lavender desserts can sometimes lean too subtle or too strong. It's clearly a well-loved place because there's usually a line, but it moves quickly, so the wait is never a big deal. And it's absolutely worth it for the dough melt--seriously, it's to die for. There's just something amazing about that combination of cold, creamy ice cream sandwiched inside a warm donut. On top of all that, the staff is always very friendly, which makes the experience even better. I will always recommend this place!

    Their Phoenix location was voted #1 in Yelp's Top 100 Ice Cream Shops, so I wanted to check out…read moretheir Mesa location as closer to my house. My boyfriend and I are long distance, but when he was in town, this made for a perfect date night treat! Though the place has no interior seating and only one table, we quickly pivoted the plan to eat in my car. Definitely more of a grab and go place to plan a little differently next visit. And yes, next visit as we both loved what we ordered! My boyfriend wanted the Leslie Knope, but was advised it would take 5-10 minutes so he went with the Dough Melt. I took a bite of his, and it truly was heavenly to have ice cream between a deliciously warm glazed donut though I preferred my order. My scoop of chocolate was perfect for me as I don't like to go too overboard with the sweets! Definitely return here and recommend as the ice cream was very good. Hard for me to find chocolate ice cream that isn't just pure sugar, and tastes like chocolate. Novel hits the mark for me!
