    Great location at Avalon across from the green
    Trina B.

    This was actually a great burger. A friend shared the history of how they got started in a gas station and then food truck and wow . Tried this spot last month, I am a very picky burger eater and typically eat them at home or steakhouses. I will say this was a tasty, flavorful burger not too thick , I chose the single patty. No thank you to fries and tots fried in fat. The line was steady , staff friendly , and great location overlooking the green at the Avalon. Plenty inside seating and inexpensive.

    NFA burger lives up to the hype and I understand why it has won best burger in Georgia in the past. There really isn't much more I can say as they keep the focus on the burgers. The service was fast and there was a lot of seating with TVs all around on the walls. We both got the classic double burger and it's a really delicious burger that I would recommend to everyone!

    First time at NFA burger and i really enjoyed it! The inside is designed like a sports bar, so its a cool casual place to stop by if you're walking around the Avalon. The smashburger was great and the tots along with the side sassy sauce were perfection! The staff was also very friendly and helpful, they constantly checked on us. Great place for a quick bite!

    Good burger joint located in the Avalon district. Burgers are small so doing double or triple is in order. They are delicious. Hot dogs are good too. Service is fair and staff is genuinely nice. I wish they had better selection of drinks such as beer as it would make it truly five star establishment...

    I had previously visited the Dunwoody location but this was my first time at the relatively new location at the Avalon. First of all, it's great that they have a dining area in comparison to the picnic tables at the original location. It's also amazing that they have so many big screen TVs. I visited on a Sunday and they had almost all of the NFL football games on the TVs in the dining area. The burgers are really good. I ordered the single based upon my appetite, but apparently the most common is the double or the Billy's classic. The burger was juicy and very flavorful. I also ordered a tots which come crispy with a side of sassy sauce. The overall service is good. The order taker who greets you is relatively friendly, but the people behind the bar and the ones who bring your food continue to check on you and ask how you liked your meal. I had a pretty good experience and I would definitely consider returning and recommending the restaurant to others. Cheers

    My pride and joy!

    I've been driving my electric car to their infamous gas station spot in Dunwoody for the last couple of years. I concur with all the hamburger lists that this smash burger is second to none. My amazing son came to visit me from Massachusetts and requested his obligatory NFA burger as expected. I have been wanting to try their new sit down concept since it opened so I invited my best friend Matt to join us for his first NFA experience. I live downtown so to go OTP for a burger, it better be award winning. NFA Alpharetta didn't disappoint my friends. In fact, I'll be making this (even longer) drive in my Tesla instead of the Chevron location because not only do they have EV chargers but the sit down service was off the chain!

    LOL!

    Another social media hyped place I have been wanting to try, NFA Burger in shee shee Avalon was pretty good as far as burgers and hot dogs go. That's what I tried! This place is moderately priced and moderately hostile towards ketchup which cracks me up. The burgers were your basic smash burgers, simply dressed and well seasoned. A good burger should stand on its own hence the hostility towards ketchup. I get that. That hot dogs though! The one I got was the Southsider which was a Polish sausage simply dressed with mustard and raw onion. This dog had a kick to it which I loved!! The tots were tots and nothing special. I got the Sassy sauce which the greeter/ cashier couldn't describe very well. I'm guessing it was mayonnaise and ketchup and some spices. We really didn't get great service until we sat down and got our drinks. We weren't warmly greeted when we placed our order. I also wasn't sure how to get a refill on my soda. I guess I could have asked but it wasn't very clear and I didn't know who could have made that happen. My wife asked for just water and you had to get that yourself at the bar. (Weird) The place looked pretty clean, modern but retro and it had a full bar. I saw that the people who delivered the food were fast and efficient. Will I crave this place? Probably not. It was kind of an odd experience service wise. I just wasn't too sure how their type of service worked. The food was good though for burgers and hotdogs. I will give them a thumbs up for their Giving Kitchen support. Love that!

    Loved the fries, the service was friendly, and we didn't have to wait in line. Wish they had fountain soda instead of a can. As for the burger? Just way too salty. Cheers! RS

    Double burger with fries and tater tots
    Dave B.

    The burgers are quite tasty. The tater tots and fries are also good (large portions that can be shared). The meals are a little pricey (but then again so are many drive thru restaurants these days). The seating is fairly comfortable and the large screen TVs are great. I counter 4 very large ones and 6 large ones).

    Double Patty NFA Burger
    Brian X.

    This is my first time at this location. My previous experience was the one in Dunwoody at the gas station. Food - I ordered the double patty NFA Burger, the quality here is just as good as the original location, it has a crispy exterior for the smashburger, as well as the quality taste in the meat. The burger is 5/5. Also ordered the tater tots, it has a great perfect exterior crunch, but felt a little bit dry and over fried. 4/5 Service - 3/5 - I think that this place needs some reevaluation. The line very is long especially when you are waiting on a Saturday at peak lunch time in Avalon. The issue is that there is one line and that there is one register to take orders. That's not okay when you're waiting 30 minutes in line. Another issue is the the water, just as reviews have said in the past, they tell you that the waiter will bring out water for you but they don't and you have to ask them when they bring out your food. Next, the water cup is so small that after you finish your serving, you have to either ask the waiter to refill your water cup or go up to the bartender to refill it. If you're making it self-serve, you should have a water station to fill up your own cup. Otherwise have a larger portion size for the cups so that customers don't have to keep on refilling their cup. The food is great and I'll come back for it. But the logistics aspect needs some work.

    Burgers, tots, grilled cheese. Heck yeah
    Daniel H.

    So excited to see NFA opening up in a new location - this one will be right on the green next to the gelato shop, just as we were asking for more casual, easy food to be at the Avalon! Went on a Friday night with a concert on the green so the place was packed, took about 30-40 minutes to order but the staff were doing a great job controlling the line and making sure the kitchen wouldn't get overwhelmed. Food would come out pretty fast after ordering. Burgers were great if mine was a little on the done side but would definitely go back. Tots (and fries) are fried in beef tallow which gives it a bit of a deeper and different flavour than you'd probably be used to. Grilled cheese was fine, nothing special, but definitely hits the spot when we were looking for one. Prices are extremely good, $7-8 for a double burger, $5 for sides, beers are also $4-5 and seemed like everyone had a beer out on the green from here. Place has a good amount of tables inside, a bar top, and lots of TVs for a very casual feel. Maybe would have been more appealing to sit in on not as busy of a day. Recommended and glad we have it here now

    Only tried the shakes from the walk up ordering but super great, fast service and my girls loved the peach milkshakes. Thank you and can't wait to come back and try the burgers! Love that they have a location at Avalon now.

    Ashley M.

    Second time at the location and had a good experience. Ordering was easy and quick to receive. Only thing I didn't like was they put the bacon on the bottoms bun and it constantly went everywhere. I assume I never had that problem is bc it's typically on top and adheres to the cheese. Nevertheless, the tots were good and everything was hot and correct.

    This is just a small place in a strip mall that I found by searching Yelp…read more It is only 15 mins away from Alpharetta and is more than worth the drive. The location was clean, there are only a few tables and bar seats, (no alcohal) there are several TVs playing different things (the guy at the counter turned on the Minecraft movie for my son while we ate!! Super nice. My oldest and I order the Gouda burger... and my youngest ordered the hot dog. All with fries. (Prices seemed a bit high but honestly it was more than worth it!) The food came out pretty fast... and it looked awesome! (See pictures) the Gouda burger has lettuce, tomato, onion, Gouda, bacon, and shoe string potato chips on top of a good sized black angus patty. This was maybe the best burger I have had since I moved to GA! How are people not swarmed all over this establishment eating here! This was amazing! It was "ohhhhhh my Goddie to dam Hottie!!!" The burger was juicy and packed with amazing flavor! The addition of the shoe strings grave it a crunch that I just loved! I didn't even put catchup on it... I ate it as they brought it... nothing added nothing removed. It was phenominal! My son's hit dog was huge.. and loaded with condiments... onion, tomato's, relish on a monster dog. He couldn't finish it. The fries need to be cooked in hotter oil so that they get crispy.. some were kinda crisp some were not and salt the fries! The fries were ok... but the burger more than made up for it! I'm telling you this is burger heaven! If you're looking for the best burger around head on over to the Burger Factory... I know I'm going back to try a different offering soon!

There are several tables but it looked like they do a lot of takeout business. I like that there is a screen to order from or you can order at the counter. There seemed to be lots of parking too. The tater tots and mozzarella sticks were really good. Perfectly crispy! The mozzarella sticks didn't seem straight out of the freezer like at most places but the little cup of marinara was really cold. I ordered the salmon over brussels sprouts because I don't eat meat. (They do have a mushroom sandwich for vegetarians.) The salmon was perfectly cooked, and it also had tomatoes, nuts/seeds, and fried onions so the flavors and textures were great. It came with a sauce on the side that was yummy. The only annoying thing was that I got my food way after everyone else. Two friends got burgers, one got the spicy chicken sandwich, and one got the steak sandwich. All really enjoyed theirs but noted they are very messy to eat. One friend was annoyed that she didn't see salmon on the menu, but it is kind of hard to find! I only knew because I looked at the order screen and saw the salmon section. I think three of us had leftovers. Overall we enjoyed our meals and the prices weren't outrageous.

Fries are probably the best thing here. Service - just terrible. Outside of bartenders who are pretty happy and funny, the rest of service is hit or miss. First time I visited was awful. Second time around I had to walk up to server to place an order and ended up getting wrong beer multiple times on refills (how is getting the same refill a problem?). So 3-stars for this review is me being generous on account of great beer. I will however never order food here again.

They are known for their burgers but for some reason I ordered the "Nashville Hot" chicken sandwich. I LOVE this sandwich and if I see it on the menu I tend to order it. I put the name in quotes because this was NOTHING like a Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. This was a fried chicken sandwich with a squeeze of hot sauce and honey. Absolutely horrible. The breading fell off immediately and it was just gross, greasy and slippery. No flavor, no heat. The second disappointment were the onion rings. Greasy, Soggy, mushy, and again, the breading immediately fell off. They were like eating fried spaghetti. The final letdown was the service. Our server was nice when she greeted us, but we saw her maybe once during our meal. Never filled our drinks and she checked on us once during our meal. The food took 45 minutes to come to our table. I am not sure if she was new. Tonight in general was just a bust. On the bright side, my wife said that her meal was good. Lesson learned. Stick to the burgers and fries.
