    Spicy chicken sando, NB Double, fries
    Katy C.

    Nonla Burger is pretty tasty and offers a great value. We have a location in Grand Rapids now, but stopped in to this spot recently. Their indoor seating area is super tiny but they do have some tables outside. We managed to get a table and our food was done quickly. The menu is small, with burgers, a chicken sandwich (you can get spicy or regular), fries, a couple starters, and milkshakes. I ordered the double smash burger which was perfection, with juicy patties and crisp lettuce. It's definitely one of the better local fast-casual burgers I've had in the Grand Rapids area (I haven't had many in Kalamazoo, but I would guess it's one of the best there, too). Nate got the spicy chicken sando combo which comes with fries and a drink. The fries are average but you can get them Nonla Way, with melted cheese, grilled onions, cilantro, etc. to kick them up a bit. I had a few bites of the chicken sando and unfortunately it just tasted like fish since their weekly special was a fish sandwich. Not very appetizing for me. The employees were all very polite and kind! Note that there is limited parking at this location and they mostly do a lot of takeout orders.

    Visited on a Saturday evening 6pm and had to wait for a parking spot but plenty of booths open to dine in. Fun, welcoming vibe right when you entered. We were greeted with a warm welcome and did not feel rushed or pushed to order. It was our first time here and we were talked through several options for sauces and toppings on the side as well as add ons. Food came out fresh and hot in about 10 mins even with plenty of take out orders coming through the doors while we were there. I personally enjoyed my burger, it was juicy and hit the spot like any good "bar" or dive spot burger does. My husband loved his spicy chicken sando. He added the house made pickles and enjoyed their flavor but their size made it a bit hard to eat. He ate most of them on the side separate, which to be fair is probably how they are truly intended to be enjoyed. Chicken was cooked well, hardy and balanced with good flavor. I had my fries the Nonla way which included grilled onions, their special sauce and jalapeños. When I say I never want to eat fries any other way I mean it. So good! I'll be back for these crispy fries and sauce alone! Got to chat with the manager before we headed out and he was very personable. You could tell he enjoyed his job. We will be back for the great service and food!

    Perfect!!!  thanks ladies!!!

    Great service and smiles... of course the food is fantastic!!! Convenient location and there's no rush at this location so the food is cooked all the way.

    We were looking for the best burgers in town and Nonla came highly recommended by locals. Went to the Burdick St. location, a small building that you could easily pass if you weren't familiar with area. Due to pandemic our order was pick up only. Order was ready quickly, and friendly service. Ordered two cheeseburger meals with fries. Asked for iced tea and had to pay an up charge since we didn't order a fountain drink. Burger was well wrapped, made it easy to eat. Very tasty burger, we enjoyed it just not sure it was the best I've ever had. I'd try again once they open and we can try some of their specials.

    The pickles!!

    While visiting Kalamazoo I was on my own for lunch and all I wanted was a really good chicken sandwich. I am so so happy this place popped up in my search because it was another life experience. This chicken sandwich BLEW MY MIND! First off I got the spicy chicken but I am going to assume the regular is just as mind blowing. The spicy one is dipped, yes dipped in chili oil . You'd think it would be too spicy to eat but it was it just the perfect heat. It contains a nice hearty amount of Mayo and then their homemade pickles. The pickles were amazing! Go for the sandwich, stay for the pickles. I seriously put into words how much I enjoyed this sandwich. I wouldn't shut up about it all day. Everyone I went to Kalamazoo was tired of hearing me talk about the chicken sandwich and they were all jealous they didn't come along. CHEERS!

    Nonla burger was a lot smaller than I was expecting but my husband and I had read all about how fantastic the burgers are so we didnt let the size discourage us from delicious nom noms. We were told about what comes on the burgers and chicken sandwich while we waited in line. My husband got the double burger with fries while I got a single burger. We chose to eat in and attempted to patiently wait. I had requested no tomato and my husband said no veggies. He got no veggies but mine still came with tomato. It's not a big deal and honestly was having an awful day and knew my brain was overreacting which would show if I said something. I decided to just pick it off but was disappointed that quite a bit off the sauce came off with the tomato. Overall it was all tasty and I am hoping to come back soon to try the chicken sando.

    Quad burger at Nonla in Kalamazoo

    I don't need fancy. I need good. And Nonla's burger was more than good. It was great! It's a small place with a few tables inside and a very few tables outside. When I parked my car in front, the tables outside were occupied and folks were even eating in their car. I placed my order at the counter and lucked out with a table inside. Decorations are sparse but effective with the paces from a very old Life magazine posted on the walls. I ordered today's "special" which was a QUAD burger. Yes, four patties with cheese in between each and LTO. Perfect for my keto diet without the bun. They made a valiant attempt to do it in a lettuce wrap but I was already planning to knife and fork this monster. It was delicious! Wet, messy, very flavorful and the "Nonla sauce" was tasty too. Pickles are a bit spicy but well worth it. Bottled and canned beverages only. I would expect a small joint like this to be cash only but they do accept credit cards through Square. Friendly service, clean restaurant. It's not a "first date" sort of place but it is definitely a hidden gem. [Review 11243 overall, 1019 of 2019.]

    I visited Nolan burger with couple of friends. I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich with fries. I liked the chicken and how crunchy it was. The bun was ok, but I wasn't a big fan of the pickled veggies inside. I asked to remove it but the staff said it is a good thing to try. I give it 2/5 The fries is very good!! Just the right taste. They use hand cut fries which is the best thing for me. The place is small and cozy, we sat outside the restaurant bcz it was very busy inside. I will come next time and try their cheeseburger.

    Ask the Community - Nonla Burger

    Has the restaurant moved from its Burdick at Alcott location?

    no! there are still two locations.

    Where farm do they get their meat from?

    Is this owned by the same folks that own Nonla in Mattawan?

    The head cook of Nonla Vietnamese street food in Mattawan partnered with friends from California to open NONLA Burger. There are rumors of another NONLA restaurant will be opening that is focused on new American cuisine.

    Restaurant Name: The Old goat tavern…read more Dish: pickle chips, BELT, The forty eighty Date Visited:3/15/26 First Impressions: The atmosphere is wonderful it has pick your seat seating a very lovely bar where you can see them make your food multiple TVs to watch the games and a front and back entrance. It's a pretty peaceful college bar next to a really nice coffee shop. Presentation - 10/10 Taste & Flavor - 10/10 When getting food here you can get a good variety of spicy and savory especially when it comes to their burgers their drinks are made with much care. Nothing is too overpowering Portion Size - 10/10 I have a very small stomach so things tend to fill me up regardless however my husband is an endless pit and the burger seemed to fill him up for the time being. Value for your money? I would say you get a good value and a full meal for the price you're going to pay You get good service especially on a Sunday when there's only a very few people in there and you're just trying to relax. ‍ Service - 10/10 The service in overall 10 out of 10 The bartender was extremely friendly kept a decent conversation going & greeted us when we entered, most of the staff is college students so you know they're working hard when it comes to both school and being servers. Overall Rating: 10/10 Final Verdict: The Old goat tavern is by far place I would return to especially for a quick bite and something that's going to kill me up for a cheap price. It's good for a night out on the town or just drinks with friends they have a wide variety of drinks and drafts and a good burger. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you haven't already they live up to the hype.

    Service wasn't the best. The server took forever to grab our order because he was so busy talking…read moreto the other workers behind the bar. I added our total up and it should've been 42.98 based off of their menu prices but they add a 4% operating surcharge. Insane in my opinion. Lost our business for sure.

    We chose Brick and Brine to celebrate a very special Anniversary!…read more Brick and Brine provided us with an absolutely phenomenal dining experience!! Our dinner stretched out over a nearly 3 hour time period, but felt like it flew by at the same time! Never rushed, but intentional and SO enjoyed!! Our waiter was fabulous and made sure that our every need (and want!) was met. He went over and above for us and we loved every moment!! I wish I had gotten his name to mention here! We started our evening browsing the cocktail menu. The offerings are vast! We ordered two different kinds of old fashioned options, always a favorite! One had very unique twist and arrived on fire/smoking! The drink continued to have a smoke effect, but this did not highly alter the flavor! It was delicious and fun! "It adds drama" is how our waiter put it, and he was right! :) It was called "Fire House No. 4". Next we perused the appetizer section. The choices were excellent and we landed on the meatballs, going off of recommendations and previous experience! For meatballs, they were indeed quite delicious but if I'm being completely honest I don't think I'd choose them again. I would venture out a little more. The scallops came highly recommended by our waiter. Also highly recommended was the steak tartare! After our appetizer we ordered a wedge salad. This was wonderful! It mimics what you'd traditionally expect from a wedge salad - this one served with multiple small wedges of iceberg lettuce - but the toppings elevate so nicely! Bleu cheese, the most delicious marinated tomatoes, pickled red onions, and the best, most flavorful chunks of bacon! This was a favorite!! It was finally time to decide on entrees. This was tough! There are many choices I'd like to try and we will definitely be back to try some more. Because this was a special meal and we had heard very good things, both of us ordered the ribeye steak. This is a large piece of meat that arrived with mouthwatering presentation. While the flavors were most definitely evident of a quality piece of meat, I would personally not choose this exact entree again. The meat was well cooked, and done to my requested level, but arrived not very warm. I like my food hot and while I acknowledge that a fine steak presentation likely requires a rest time, my own opinion is put off when I feel like my food is in any way on the cold side. I did not complain about this - and it doesn't affect my rating, but it is worth noting and something I'd like to know when making a decision for ordering! Other entrees that I saw coming out around me that I am SO very interested in trying on a future visit were the fried chicken (WOW! The presentation on this dish is NEXT level!) and the salmon! Everything I saw coming to nearby tables looked quite stunning and I'd quite honestly like to try each dish from their menu! ;) This place is quality, it is very evident! We paired our dinner entree with two side items. The side items are large, intended to serve multiple people. We chose the crispy fingerling potatoes and the Brussels sprouts. Both were perfection! We loved them! The Brussels sprouts had SO much flavor! Even the leftovers the next day were so delectable! We finished our meal with the most exceptional dessert! It was a hard decision but we chose the Chocolate Hazelnut Flourless Torte! AMAZING! It was served with an orange creamsicle ice cream which sounds like a strange accompaniment for these flavors but it fit so very well with the dish. The hazelnut crémeux on the side was also exceptional - just a really great dessert, all around! Alongside our dessert we ordered an elevated espresso that was absolute perfection! One of THE best dessert cocktail beverages I have ever had! I highly recommend this either as your dessert or as an accompaniment! So, so good! Even though there were a couple of things during this meal that I personally would not choose to order again, everything was still superb! I can't choose any less than five very deserved stars!! This was such a great experience at a very fine, local, Kalamazoo restaurant!! Be prepared to spend some five star dollar amounts, but also be prepared to receive a five star, not just meal, but entire experience!! ;)
