There aren't tourist books about the Pascack Valley train line, but I've been enjoying the trees and the food discoveries like this friendly spot with substantial, juicy burgers. On my first visit I was drawn to the exotic hot dogs; I recommend the Italian. The next time I got the Something Bacon and Blue, which put toppings like caramelized onions to fine use without overshadowing the beef, and the excellent fries. It was great talking to the workers about menu indecision and my recent interest in Bergen County excursions. read more

Stopped by lab burger after a while. Seems the store is more for take outs now, as the restaurant appears more messy, boxes all around, few chairs and tables are available in front. I got a Chicago dog and fries. Both were good. Hot dog had lots of toppings. Fries were thick and cooked well but not burnt. read more

Was in the area so stopped in for lunch. I got the lemon pepper wings which taste ok. The lemon pepper seasoning was good but the wings them selves were just ok didn't taste the freshest. I also got the chocolate bread pudding I'm a huge bread pudding fan but this one just didn't do it for me. It kind of tasted bad strong alcoholly taste and the way its packed was just a bunch of mush in a cup. read more

Do yourself a favor and check that the place is open before placing an online order. They will gladly take an order even when they are not open. Called several time that went to voicemail. Finally went to the restaurant as the order was already paid for...only to find the place closed for the evening...on a random Monday. Can't speak for the food as the delivery order never arrived. read more

I am so bummed that we had a poor experience with TLB tonight and hoping it is a one-off. We ordered a plain hot dog, chicken sliders combo, and kids cheeseburger, all which had extremely burnt and hard buns. It was difficult to eat so we took the meat off and ate it like that. The chicken from the sliders had zero flavor so I didn't eat them. Our order of fries was raw and inedible. My expectations rank fairly high since it is not a cheap meal. 2 stars because my husband's burger (Happy Accident) seemed fine. read more

I've ordered delivery from here several times. Burgers have always been well made with fresh ingredients. I've tried both fries and onion rings and some is the desserts. All very good. Love supporting local small businesses. read more

The food is usually pretty solid fast food. I recently decided to try their burger bowl though and it said it comes with cheese but there was none which left this bowl incredibly dry and just blah was a waste I couldn't eat it read more

Had the Tree Hugger burger (veggie burger) and sweet potato fries. The burger gets pretty messy 1/3 way in. It's not really a patty. Very good tho. Flavor is def there. Chipotle sauce has a nice kick. Sweet potato fries are good! I'll definitely try other items. read more

It's like....fine?? We've been looking forward to trying it, ordered on DoorDash. We live exactly 9 minutes away. Everything: luke warm, at best. Fries....fine...no seasoning not even salt? Sweet potato fries...clearly a real sweet potato but also...bland? Not crispy at all. Onion rings, soggy. So all of these had to go in the air fryer and even then...just kind of flat. Burgers ALL too rare, I'm a medium rare person and this was bloody. Original with bacon. A 5. Max. The remake...little bit of an odd flavor combination, also a 5. Max. Bacon blue, 6. I would give them another try NOT for take out but I'm not sure id spend almost 80.00 for 3 burgers, 3 fries/sides and 3 sodas to have to cook and season again. Everything needed seasoning. The house made ketchup, sort of reminiscent of ketchup as a kid but also, closer to tomato paste. BBQ sauce good Ranch great! Upon further review...the entire problem with the burger is the burger that is a pre shaped brick patty, La Frieda must have seen better days because this is a frozen tasting texturally unpleasant situation. The cheese is also lab created I suppose because it's melted but it's also....a perfect square. The bun and othe toppings are fresh and balanced, just needs a different burger in there. We will try again for dine in read more

I've been wanting to stop by and give this place a try. Ordered 3 specialty burgers, fries, onion rings and fried pickles All 3 burgers were overcooked and dry. While the fries and onion rings were very soggy. The fried pickles were not fried pickle chips you normally expect but pickle spears. A poor substitute, in my humble opinion. Overall, not a good purchase for $56.00. The staff was nice but for me and my family - it's a "one and done". read more

Hit or miss? This was somewhere in between. We got takeout based on the photos provided on Yelp. You can see ours looked a *little* different. The fries were ok, not very crispy but that's what comes with hand cut. They tossed in a couple of ketchup packets for free. The rings were good, but as you can see, the portion was tiny for $5. We did have to pay extra for chipotle mayo, which was good but you can include ONE sauce if we get $9 worth of sides! The burgers were a good size. The tree hugger had potential, but just didn't compare to the picture. It fell apart as you ate it. The Texas burger was also good, but neither was out of this world. I was pretty excited and had high expectations knowing that they use local produce and meats. It just didn't seem to come together where you say "I need to come back." read more

Have now been here twice and can certify that the quality of the food is well above average. The chicken sandwiches are crispy on the outside and moist and tender inside, and the beef burgers are flavorful. The Spicy Chicken is definitely a favorite as the slightly-sweet bun perfectly balances the light heat of the Buffalo sauce. Today I had the Morning After and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The fried egg on top was cooked perfectly, as the runny yolk stayed intact until I took my first bite. I decided to swap Mayo for Chipotle Mayo and thought it the perfect compliment to the other ingredients, including the beef burger, melted cheese, avocado, applewood smoked bacon on the toasted English muffin. The side of fries is a good value but the burgers and sandwiches seem to be just a tad on the pricey side - but not nearly enough to keep us from coming back. read more

First off, definitely filling. Solid lunch or dinner. I thought Texas Hold'em was solid. It could use a stronger BBQ sauce. I appreciate the burger NOT being slathered in sauce, so it really is a point of a bolder sauce. Burger wasn't greasey. Clean eat. My wife liked the original. She called it an upgraded Big Mac, meaning that classic iconic burger at a higher, premium quality. I loved my parmesan fries. My wife thought there a bit too well done. But I like well, so win for me! Haha. The folks behind the counter were very friendly. Would be nice to see some seating or matching decor to match the cool music vibe that was happening. It's very sparse. But, I'll chalk that up to it being brand new. The Lab is a SOLID solution to a serious burger craving. Room to get bolder on taste & vibe, but a solid bite. I got a lot of hope for this crew. read more

This is my family's go-to spot for burgers. The quality is consistent and top-notch. They've got a great variety of burgers and some chicken sandwiches, too. We love Lab Burger! read more

So we came here because we are always excited to try something new. The food was really good but very pricey. The vibe of the restaurant had potential but unfortunately not completely met. Either the owner or manager sat outside a long hallway while working which took up a lot of space and there seemed to be a huge water delivery because there was a long table with stacks of water on it. They should definitely invest in a cleaning company because the hall to the back door was gross and falling apart and the bathroom was disgusting so bad so I didn't want to touch anything! All in all cute place and concept but I don't think we will be returning. read more

The burger options here are phenomenal (even the chicken sandwiches!). The food is made fresh, great tasting and just simply filling. This place is a community staple to enjoy by all. The service is fast, friendly and just impeccable every time we have been here. Great for a quick bite, lunch or time with friends!! Check this place out! read more

I was headed to the diner and the traffic was bumper to bumper because of a re route due a closed road. I pulled into a nearby parking lot and ended up enjoying one of the best house made veggie burgers I've ever had with a side of fried pickles reminiscent of The Penguin in Charlotte. If you are anywhere along Kinderkamack Rd looking for really good burgers and sides check this place out. read more

Do NOT get ANY of the donuts. They're WAY overpriced and had I given them a closer look or asked the price first before purchasing them, I probably would have just walked out. And to those who ask why anyone would consider eating donuts from a burger place has never had brisket from a gas station in KC. I don't know if this was a great idea by someone there to make a little extra with a couple impulse add-ons to what is generally a good burger / sandwich place or if someone actually said "hey these are good, you should sell them". I hope not the latter. For starters they're cake donuts. Ask anyone who likes cider donuts (or donuts, period) if they prefer them to deep fried. Next, they're tiny. And the pumpkin one wasn't edible. I threw out a $3 donut after taking a bite. This is not a negative review about Lab Burger. Saying nothing would be negative. If I can prevent anyone from ordering these donuts, it may keep them from arriving to the same decision and possibly not ordering anything else. Lab Burger is a bit pricey and I only order there out of convenience. The food is good. read more

Burgers are great but just tried their Italian Dog. Super delicious with fresh veggies and a Pat Lafrieda Hot Dog that wasn't your typical overly salty one you get at most places. It's a must try. read more

Yesterday, I had one of the best lunch sandwiches in a long time. My server/cashier, Josie, helped me with the order...she was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous! I ordered the "make your own" which included the following: grilled chicken, 9-grain roll, barbecue sauce (excellent taste...I think they made it...not store-bought), lettuce, and tomato. It took about 10-15 minutes to prepare...when I picked it up since I was taking it home to eat, it was packaged perfectly, with a piece of parchment/wax paper over the roll in the box...when I opened the sandwich which was hot - it was exactly how I ordered it...and the price was under $9. - wow! But, the best was the taste...delicious! The grain roll was one of the best rolls I have enjoyed! I highly recommend The Lab Burger for those of us who eat only grilled chicken...the best! Thank you to the Chef! read more

Wanted some burgers on a whim and I was not able to drive so I found this place on my Uber app. Very pleasantly surprised by the burgers, hand cut fries, and chicken fingers for the kids. Pat Lafrieda burgers no less. Really good pricing for the size of the burger you get on a beautiful brioche roll. Don't forget the bacon! Super fast delivery on a Sunday evening. Confident 4 stars - will update the next time I order. read more

Stopped here on the way back to Brooklyn and wow we were impressed! My wife ordered a burger and I ordered a fried chicken sandwich and both were extremely fresh. Will definitely come back to try more of the menu and the staff was super friendly. Don't miss out if you're in the area! read more

We order from here b/c the reviews and it wasn't that good, the veggie burger was like a kid would mix bunch of uncooked greens made to a patty that falls all over like scrambled eggs. read more

Not bad! Definitely filling like some people have mentioned. We both had chicken, based on other reviews about being crispy. I had The Crispy, but not totally crispy. The bun was excellent! My wife had The Brooklyn, she really enjoyed it. The waffle as the bun is a really good idea with spicy sweet sauce. She also had the Parmesan garlic fries, but there wasn't much taste of either flavor. We will try again, to road test the burger menu. read more

"The Crispy" chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious! Came out fresh and hot with a choice of fries, onion rings or sweet potato fries. Both the regular and sweet potato fries were great. Very filling lunch for a good price. I'll be back when I'm in the area again! read more

Ordered for the first time last night and the food was great! Got the sampler app, bacon & blue burger, the original burger, old dog, garlic parm fries, regular fries, and grilled cheese.

So, I truly love a great burger and believe purveyors of great burgers should be held in high esteem. Since The Lab Burger basically sells burgers, I was hoping for great things. Sadly, the burger was quite literally nothing special. It was edible. Also, and this really made me sad they advertise "home made" onion rings. I have a real desire for home made onion rings. I do not believe that the one's I tasted were homemade, they were not fresh, not crispy. This place is quite close to where I live and I was excited. I am disappointed. read more

Tried Lab Burger for the first time today. Had the Texas Hold'Em with fries and a Boylan black cherry soda. Brioche bun, toasted perfectly separates this from the rest of the burger places. Burger was cooked perfectly, beef high-quality, the fried onions on it were excellent and the bacon was cooked properly. This place is spotless. Service was friendly lotta smiles going on. We will definitely be back! read more

Followed the yelp reviews and wasn't disappointed. The burgers were outstanding and the fries were great. Skip the sweet potato fries though, too potato-ey. I love thick shakes and theirs were perfection. read more

Tasty burgers and well seasoned onion rings but very filling! Bring your appetite with you. My only quip is too much bun for the patty. The ciabatta bread was delicious but it engulfed my burger. I would try it on a brioche bun instead. Fries were delicious and milkshake was good too! read more

Solid place! Delicious burger and onion rings. I also loved the chicken and waffle sandwich with the hot honey, very nice touch. Will definitely come back again. read more

First time here. Heard great things. The burgers were very good, but to eat in, it literally took 35 minutes for the burgers to get cooked. The fries and onion rings were great, and if the ventilation was better, we would have gotten milk shakes and cookies. We stank like fried food, and burgers. We will definitely come again, but order ahead and not eat inside. Love the concept, and as a black lab owner, I have a soft spot for this place. read more

I went tonight to lab burger, purchased a cheddar sautéed onion sautéed mushroom m/r burger & it was amazing. Cooked to perfection, pricing also was way below what I would have expected to pay, cashier was friendly & accomadating & I would suggest anyone looking for a great quality burger to go to lab burger read more

Sorry, but can't recommend and frankly don't get all the good reviews. Burger was extremely over done (like hockey puck well done). Pulled pork and choc shake were just okay. Fries were the best part of the meal at slightly above average. Rice pudding was a mess - undercooked rice and very dry. Weird. read more

Great start but reserving the fifth star for when Lab hits its stride. The classic burgers are top notch as are the toppings. The bun certainly stands up to a big messy sandwich. The burger cooked on a flat top had a nice crust but mgmt chooses to cook meat to 150+ so not as juicy as it could be. Kudos on the lettuce and tomato. We opted for grilled rather than raw onion but the portion of grilled onion and cheese was a bit scant. Fries were delish but soggy from spending 15 minutes or so in a closed container. Onion rings though were very crispy. Hopefully they will figure out a better order system. Can't always get through on the phone. Pricing is not cheap but quite acceptable given the quality. However, they charge for every extra and every non std sauce. All in all we are glad Lab is here. Looking forward to a return to check out the chicken and hot dogs. read more

My office decided to order burgers from here, I ordered the Tree hugger. Right before I went in for a bite of the veggie burger every corner splattered into the box, looking like guacamole and tasting like it just was pulled from the freezer. I've been a Vegetarian for 6 years and this veggie burger wasn't the worst i've ever had but it definitely wasn't the best. I was definitely disappointed and I had to order food from a different restaurant. Everyone in the entire office had a serious complaint about their order, from the chicken sandwich's tasting super bland/freezer chicken to the beef burgers being extremely undercooked. One of my coworkers had to throw the beef burger into the trash due to the burger being super under cooked, basically raw meat in the middle of the burger. Everyone agree the bread and lettuce was the only thing that tasted decent. Lab burger owns the pizza shop next door and the pizza is great. Far as Lab Burger they definitely need to take some time to go back into the lab to study and recreate better tasting burgers. read more

Tried this place for the first, and last, time last night. While the burger meat is good, it was way over cooked. The garlic parm fries and onion rings were both soggy and greasy. For the quality of what we were served, this place is overpriced. I had high hopes but I won't be returning. read more
