Charred is hands down the best burger spot in Northern Virginia. We've been three times now, and…read moreevery single visit has been mind‑blowing. The smoky, charred flavor hits you in every bite, and the burgers are massive -- packed with protein, perfectly sauced, and clearly made by someone obsessed with getting it right. Even my wife, who usually doesn't care for burgers, is all in on these. We've worked our way through the Roadhouse, Original, Jalapeño Jack, and Cowboy. They somehow look even better in person than they do in the photos, and the flavor matches the presentation. And the sides? Unreal. The fries, truffle fries, and Brussels sprouts are all top‑tier. The fries especially are something special. Honestly, these are the best burgers we've ever had -- in the U.S. or anywhere else. You can feel the passion behind every plate. (The owner is frequently there so you know they care about quality!)

You can order at the counter, order via a QR code, or at the bar they'll take your order. I did a BYOB with Angus, bacon, PJ cheese, and condiments. They make a really good burger. Service was prompt, friendly, and they keep it very clean. Perfect addition to FFSC. Will be back. Highly recommend if you need your burger fix.

Yesterday during lunch was my first time dining at The Capital Burger. I was greeted well as soon…read moreas I entered and seated immediately. Very good customer service, especially by the management team and they were very present and made sure that I was enjoying my experience dining there. The ambiance was very relaxing and not noisy or chaotic. I really appreciated that because that is hard to find nowadays. Also, the table was set well and it was very clean throughout the dining area. I had their Roasted Wild Mushroom and Swiss Burger. It was very good. I loved that they use Pat La Frieda beef for their burger patties, the mushrooms were so flavorful from the balsamic vinegar, the Jarlsberg Swiss cheese had a nice mild cheesy touch, and their truffle aioli was the best savory sauce to complement it all. 9.5/10 for the burger and 10/10 for the customer service. I definitely will be back soon.

Everyone practically ordered the roasted wild mushroom and Swiss burger which is best burger I had!!! We had a half cup of clam chowder with it and a side of truffle tries. 5/30/26, we're back...5-6 people. However, we ran off to down the street. It was great either way to build a little appetite. When we return. We ordered devil eggs with bacon (so delicious with smokiness), calamari without hot peppers...crispy and tasty with a little lemon, and then added truffle fries with Parmesan cheese! Yummy! Bella was our server and cordial. There was a mix up on delivery but the next table and us cracked up laughing. The manager had a few words with us....it was happy hour again...before we headed for a 7:00 pm conference dinner. The wine and cocktails flowed freely. I'm from Ewa Beach, Hawaii...

Wings are too salty; hottest sauce is more a low end medium; weck was over cooked with a low meat to bun ratio; onion rings were fried so hard the onion had shriveled and left the chat.

Also found a medium length black hair wrapped around one of my drums which wasn't great. Place needs a good scrub (yes I know it is supposed to be divy). Bathrooms were clean though.

The avocado bacon burgers were cooked perfectly and the fries were actually fresh and crispy - nice job chef!! Stars off for price...I know, I know...everything is expensive these days, but still. Especially for a side of fries...$5.70 just is steep. Second star off for temperature of beer...it was chilled but not cold. Need a couple degrees lower adjustment on tap.
