Went on a busy Saturday and service was slow, but they were kind. There wasn't a clear break between the apps and the entrees, so that made the small table very crowded for dining. They have a good burger selection and their sweet potato fries are perfectly done. We loved the spinach artichoke dip. read more

Wanted to grab a quick bite of appetizers to eat after our love experience. Stumbled on this place just walking down the street. It look cute. Went in and was shocked by the inside. A very different decor and setting. Unusual. But quaint. We ordered apps. I can't remember our serve name but she was kind of quiet and spoke low. The menu has a lot of options for all dietary needs. Will come back again. The outside don't look anything like the inside. read more

I hade SUCH an awesome time with my girls here. Sara oh Sara how we all enjoyed your radiating sweet energy!! She was very kind, funny, and just flat out excellent service. Even when the bartend was a wee bit spicy (rude) she was like a ray of sunshine behind his dark clouds.. maybe just a bad day. No worries man Sarah saved the day. And not once but TWICE. Yes you read that right. We went back a few hours later to just sit and wait for our friends and not once did she shoo us away so we just had to order again.. see you soon MUAH! - Gato read more

Thunder Burger & Bar - Immaculate vibes shown - Burgers Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Very conveniently located in the heart of Georgetown. Space is cozy and cute with a casual and chill vibe. We were greeted warmly and our service was great. Water was replenished and modifications were able to be made to our orders. I had the impossible burger (one of the few vegan options). The patty was charred nicely and accompanied with some typical greens. I chose French fries as my accompanying side. The fries were extra crispy (may be beer battered). Portions were generous, prices were reasonable. Made for a nice dinner. read more

Solid burgers with great service. Menu variety on the burger choices was the standard fare expected of a burger restaurant. Pricing was reasonable given the location. Playing Fox News in the middle of the day was a huge L though. read more

The food was phenomenal and the service was great! There were also a few TVs to watch the games on, which made for a great atmosphere. I ordered the Carolina BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich (pictured) and it was amazing! The sauce had a great taste and the fries were Golden and Crispy! Mandy was my server/bartender, and she was exceptional! She was very welcoming and made the experience 5 Star! read more

I ordered the burger through a delivery service. It should have come with tomatoes and onions, but they left those off my burger. It was not good. read more

Beer was flat and the service was very rigid. I went in for a happy hour drink and was told I couldn't stand to order from the bar. They directed me to my table first before bringing a menu over. Ironically, the menu did not even list the available draughts, requiring going back to the bar area to squint and look at the taps. When first trying to ask the bartender what they had on tap, he said "what do you like?" At the end of our visit, we asked for the bill and it never came. Had to ask again. Ambiance inside feels disjointed, odd, and plastic -- like the place was the subject of a bar rescue or kitchen nightmares episode. read more

Terrible service. The server didn't check on me a single time. I swear I saw a look pass over her face when she realized I was just ordering a single item and water, no apps or anything. It took several attempts to get her attention to pay my bill. When I did she gave a half-hearted "sorry I didn't check on you I was really busy" (but definitely hit that 20% button). Yet, I was seated by the door, directly in her line of vision, as conveniently placed as possible. She barely had to turn her head in my direction. The food was okay, nothing memorable. More than anything, I just bought lunch there to use the facilities, and hydrate and charge my phone, but found myself unable to escape in a timely fashion. read more

Happy hour is for the bar only!! FYI It's in VERY small print on the sign. We came tired and hungry at 6:20 and there was no space for us at the bar so no happy hour prices for us at the booth. They were out of all local on tap which is annoying when you are a tourist wanting to try new things. The vibe is definitely a fun one. The Freebird chicken sandwich was pretty good. Chicken had amazing flavor and great sandwich fixings but the chicken was a bit tough. The sweet potato fries were yummy. Bathrooms are upstairs and had was stocked and clean. Fine to try. I wouldn't rush back for a second visit. read more

I had the turkey burger and my wife had a build your own burger. The food wasn't bad but the service was pretty bad. We had to wait to order, my wife specifically asked for no sauce on hers and it was covered in it, the server never came to check on us after the food came out, and I had to get my own refills at the bar. Could have been a lot better with attentive service. read more

I had one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had at Thunder Burger in Georgetown. From the moment I walked in, I was ignored--no greeting, no service, no acknowledgment. I had to actively look for someone just to pay my bill. When I finally got the server's attention, she told me she'd been at work since 10 a.m. and was tired--as if that justified the lack of basic service- especially since her coworkers were just sitting around. The food was bland and forgettable, and the overall experience was frustrating from start to finish. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone and definitely won't be returning. read more

Easily my favorite spot on Georgetown for burgers, wings, fried calamari and beers. The burgers and fries were amazing. Simo, Zach, Zouhair. Sarra and Mandy our host/bartender were amazing! Big shout out to them for the amazing hospitality. Ignore the bad reviews. The staff were very attentive and the food is great as well. Will be back again! read more

I don't like to write reviews but I couldn't resist writing about their beer taps. I honestly wanted to vomit when I saw them!! They've never been cleaned & it's a health issue. Please hire a professional beer line cleaner and have that taken care of immediately. You can ask your beer distributor for a recommendation!!! read more

This place was recommended to us by my son when he was assigned in DC with his National Guard unit. He said, "best burger you'll put in your mouth". He was not lying! Burger was juicy and fresh and flavorful! Had the bread pudding for dessert which was SO yummy! Service was friendly and attentive. I'm in DC several times a year for work and absolutely be coming back! read more

I want to know how you get a burger order wrong. They added 20% and we only had a group of 5. Got 3 orders wrong and you all need to staff better. Just having one person in the afternoon is crazy. This was not a good experience don't think I'll be back. read more

Felt super unwelcome when we walked in. The lady bartender just stared at us. It was strange. It was like the workers cannot talk or don't want to be there. Just get a different job if you don't like it. The food was okay, lacked seasoning but fine. Just gotta add salt. Hostess girl was also strange just staring in the distance. Didn't speak to guest coming in idk what's going on w the workers. read more

I stumbled upon this after a 25 mile bike ride where my friend and I were just looking to get a midday beer and snack to celebrate. She's lived here longer than I and had visited an earlier iteration of this place years ago. We were greeted by a sweet bartender from Tunisia who was charming to speak with. I was able to practice some French and talk about culture while she poured us some less expensive than normal beers (already a plus). I also browsed the happy hour offerings during the week and it makes this out of the way location for me look real worthwhile. The food was good. I had the chicken brochette salad though i technically ordered the sandwich...language/listening translation issue. The salad was what I needed (a carbs break) and it was tasty, savory, but a little small on portion with the way that sautéed spinach cooks down. The flavors were good so no major complaints. I will say, that my friend and I noticed a weird dynamic with the demeanor of most every other person working in the establishment; seemingly between staff and management. I'll leave that at that though; draw your own conclusions. I'd pop back in here. read more

My husband and I stopped in on Jan 25 after we saw a menu online touting a great burger deal for brunch. After sitting down and handed menus we found out that the brunch menu online wasn't accurate to their current offerings. We decided to stay anyway since the food looked like something we would enjoy. Note that several other patrons that were sat after us also noticed and mentioned this to staff. It took about 10 minutes to be greeted and drinks ordered. Our waitress seemed very hesitant and possibly new to service, which is fine, we all start somewhere! My husband orders a bone dry martini. About 5 minutes later the server comes back and says they "are all out of martinis". Confused, my husband points to the bar and the gin bottle on display and asks her to check again. She returns another 5 minutes later and says the bar is out of vermouth. My husband says, "No problem, I don't want the vermouth. The chilled gin and a lemon twist is perfect." She once again leaves to the bar and more time goes by, to which she once again says they cannot make the drink. We're both frustrated and confused by this, as it's the most simple drink ever, but decide to let it go. The FOH manager and also the owner seem to notice the issue and jump in to take over our service and remedy it... The drink that is brought to our table is laughable. We explained once again: chilled gin in a martini glass with a lemon twist. The FOH manager brings a rocks glass with gin and tonic over ice and a lime wedge. It was on the house, so we let it go, but don't understand how we could have been more clear about what we ordered. We practically told them how to make the drink. Several patrons sitting nearby us leaned over to express their shock at how difficult it was for us to order a simple cocktail. Our food took about 45 minutes to arrive but was tasty, and the decor was beautiful. Though the restaurant was playing melancholy instrumentals that brought the energy down. Even with a nearly full dining room it was quiet and you had to whisper to converse to ensure you were respectful of other patrons. It appeared as if most of the staff working that day may have been brand new to the restaurant. The owner was walking around and wasn't doing much to help but was trying to instill a sense of urgency into his servers to clear tables and collect checks after they'd left. The food truly was the only redeeming quality, but we certainly would never return on our next stop into DC. read more

I stopped here to grab food and catch up with a friend. We decided to stop in when seeing a happy hour deal advertised outside the restaurant. We asked for outdoor seating and when we tried to place our order for the happy hour specials, we were told that happy hour was only if we sat at the bar inside. That was a little disappointing, but we decided to stay outside as the weather was nice and we were enjoying the people-watching.   The menu was pretty straightforward with options like salads, burgers and various starters. I got the "1/2 Lb. Thunder Burger" and a side of "Thunder Fries". The food came out fairly quick. I enjoyed my burger, but it was not anything different than your typical burger.   Thunder Burger & Bar is a great spot to have a meal and people-watch. The staff are friendly and the food is decent. read more

Stopped by for drinks and dinner. I had the fortune - ahi tuna burger which was perfection. My friend had the Thunder burger which she said was delish. We share an order of sweet potato fries that were yummy - lightly seasoned with a dipping sauce. We both had signature cocktails - mine was and M Street Old Fashioned - that were just the right mix. Our waiter Omar was super. Our order came out in timely manner and he was available when we needed him. The location (right next to the newly opened Barnes & Nobles) is convenient. Would recommend and will return. read more

Beer was good. No paper towels in bathroom though. Service was decent as well. Fried mozzarella is just mozzarella sticks.

Right on M street. This burger restaurant has a rather large selection of burgers as well as salads. When you walk it, it gives you a feel of bar. Inside seating area feels very old due to age of building. But that is actually a nice thing that fits Georgetown well. Staff is very nice and friendly. read more

We came by on a warm summer evening, and was able to get outside seating in about 5 minutes. My husband had dined here about 10 years ago and suggested we stop by (and so good for them that they're still open!). There were a few misses: - They were out of the first two beers we tried to order. - The service was really slow at the end that it took about 20 minutes to get the check. - Our medium burger was more medium well than medium. - The bottom bun disintegrated and became quite soggy. My Love Me Tender burger had the potential to be a really great burger. I mean, kobe beef and remoulade is a great combo! It was good, but I'm not sure I'll return. If I do, I would order a medium rare and order my check as soon as I start eating. read more

Parking will be a challenge, if you try to avoid the parking houses. But when you eventually have decided where to park the TBB is located in almost the heart of Main Street in Georgetown. From outside you cannot imagine the interior. It is not what you may expect from a burger bar, but is cozy and intimate. What was not so cozy and intimate was our waiter. She was considered as rude and bossy. that may have had a different crowd, then 8 of us. The food was good taking into account the location and price. We all had different types of burger, and the waiter apparently mixed which one was supposed to be medium and well done and so on. We were literally the only one at that time so we were a bit surprised. Apart from all that, we managed to have a good time after all. read more

Thunder Burger & Bar is a new fan fav in this household! We were out in Georgetown yesterday after an appt and decided to stop into Thunder Burger & Bar to eat! Upon walking in, it wasn't crowded which was great bc we were a part of 5 which included a preschooler and a newborn! We were greeted immediately by one of the staff members who promptly seated us! He was so friendly and welcoming as well, which I really loved and appreciated! We all had a mixture of items: crab and crawfish dip, pork belly sandwich, ahi tuna sandwich and Caesar salad! EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS! Three of us ordered the pork belly sandwich and it did not disappoint. The pork belly was perfect cooked and there was a nice large portion on the sandwich also. The caramelized onions were the perfect finishing touch also! The crawfish and crab dip was absolutely delectable also! It wasn't overly cheesy like so many dips can be and had such a great amount of spices! Honestly, what I loved the most was the customer service. All the employees were so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed! You can't beat that!! If you're ever in the area please check out this restaurant! We will be coming back again soon especially considering how close it is to our house! read more

Excellent experience! We came for lunch on a Tuesday. The burger we got were phenomenal! I got the Ventura Highway burger and added Gorgonzola cheese to it, it was cooked to perfection and the meat was literally melting your mouth. Also, it's a huge burger. I got fries for my side and everything came out very quickly. The vibe in this place is just exceptional. Service was great. Bathrooms are up stairs. Parking is not terrible close but it was worth the walk! My friend got the bison burger was on point. Great detail in plating the food. Every bite was blended and tasteful. They do have a full bar and private rooms Great choice! read more

Great food great service outdoor space is amazing if you want. Just a good old-fashioned American burger this place is it

Used to be better pre COViD. Good location on M street. Decent beer selection on tap. But: they put a sign out on the sidewalk saying half off 'most beers' at happy hour. Not true. They charge $6 per beer at happy hour NOT half price. So blatant false advertising. They used to do what the sign says - but no longer. But kept the old sign out. That is sketchy. Illegal? Used to be my go-to place in Georgetown but no longer. Used to serve pints but my draft came out in 12 ounce long glass. So they are cutting corners there too. read more

Food was delicious and the environment was awesome. Located right downtown it's a grab place to pop in, sit down, and enjoy a delicious burger or beverage. Our server was always keeping our glasses full and was quick to get our food out. The burgers were delicious and juicy, and the fries went above and beyond. They weren't the greatest burger I've ever had but they still deserve praise. Great restaurant, would try again! read more

While in Georgetown I was starving and learned that Thunder Burger had a tuna burger! As a pescatarian (and one who doesn't like veggie burgers) I was thrilled! I had my order delivered and I appreciate that they put all my fixings on the side. #LOVEIT The tuna filet was soooo big! It was definitely hanging out the bun but I enjoyed it. With the fixings, it was even better. I truly appreciate this tuna option because these are hard to find. As a result, when people want burgers and yummy fries, I will definitely recommend this spot! read more

Came here for dinner during happy hour. The food/drinks were great. Exactly what you would expect for bar food. The burger had a hot pink center. The pomegranate margarita: just keep them coming. The sliders were tasty. As for the service, we walked in and they let us choose our table. We opted to sit by the fire place. Service was a little slow but they were pretty busy and had limited staffing. (Not a big deal if you're patient). Ambiance: there was a variety of different groups here. Large, small, some on dates. I would say it's a very casual environment. Decor: quaint. The place was larger than expected. Parking: street meter parking. When you're in Georgetown parking is scarce, just park in a lot. There's one a few blocks away that's only $5. Definitely a place worth checking out... see photos. read more

I was here for work related things and a coworker said she had a friend who recommended the place. We got apps - meatballs that were fantastic with homemade warm bread and also the best mozzarella sticks I have ever had. We both had a burger and may I say, hands down, the best meal I had while in DC. Would 10/10 recommend and will be back when I return for workshops. read more
