Really tasty neighborhood burger restaurant with a charming 1950s lunch counter vibe. I tried the classic smash burger and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich and both were excellent - the hot chicken definitely made me sweat a little! The menu is relatively narrow but lots of good burger and chicken sandwich options as well as milkshakes, fries, and other classic sides. Staff were friendly, food came out fast, and the restaurant space was clean and attractive. I look forward to coming back soon!

At last, a good day and time for us to finally try Yeanie's! Me and my wife have been wanting to try their smash burger for so long. I don't have anything to compare the smashed burger to because this is my first time trying a restaurant quality smashed burger. I'm a little torn if I like smashed burgers or beefy burgers lol I must say though, their burgers are seasoned well. I'm sure it's just salt and pepper but it's enough! The edges had enough burnt edges. I did a double with Yeanie sauce. I'm going to give the burger a 8/10. I wish my burger had more onions. I also tried to loaded fries. It was a little overwhelming LOL there was alot going on including 2-3 different sauces including cheese. I'll give it a 7/10. A little more light on the sauce would be better but that's just my preference. I was told that the tenders were amazing. I ordered that for my son and he loved it. I agree, the tenders were pretty damn good. My wife tried the Nashville chicken sandwich . She rate it 7/10. The slaw inside the sandwich was amazing. The sauce itself was ok. She wish there was a little bit more of a kick to it. Overall, I would definitely come back to get their burgers. Just once in a while. Reasoning is, it's a bit expensive. You do pay for what you get and that is good quality dishes. But $13 for a burger that doesn't come with fries can be a little steep... Definitely come and give it a try!

Ok, I know Yeanie's is on the map for their burgers, but I have to say their chicken was really the star of the show. I much preferred the chicken sandwich to the burger (and maybe that's because I'm not the biggest fan of smash patty style), but I thought that that along with their crisp and fluffy fries topped with creamy sauce and tender chicken was the best stuff on the menu. Otherwise, the service was exceptional- fast a friendly- and the vibes had that excellent diner feel, somehow both old school and elevated modern. The yellow ambience makes the whole meal feel bright and desirable, perfect for a late night bite with friends or a midday snack. All the flavors were tasty as can be, high quality, and left me wanted to come back for more. I will definitely need to try their new breakfast sandwiches soon! This spot is a little trip out of Boston, but a fun adventure and definitely worth it!

1/3 full extra sauce
Alex F.

Overall 3.5 stars. We ordered build your own burgers (double with chopped onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and yeanie sauce & double with same but + bacon), chocolate milkshake, Oreo milkshake, two sides of a fries, and two sides of sauce (habanero + yeanie's). My boyfriend and I have contradicting opinions on our meals so I'll give you both perspectives, but we can both agree on quick food, great service, and amazing crispy seasoned fries. Me: my burger was cooked well, super fresh NOT GREASY ingredients (I didn't get sick after which is a huge bonus). Yeanie sauce was super tasty but my burger was absolutely drenched in it and almost took away from the flavor of the rest of the toppings. My milkshake was decent- good taste but thin. Boyfriend: He loved the taste of his burger but it was slightly overcooked. He adored his chocolate milkshake- super thick and tasty. One thing that annoyed me was paying extra for sauce but the yeanie's sauce container was probably 1/3 full which was a rip off (pictured). Habanero sauce was OD spicy.. so if you like that do it! It's not something that I could see myself specifically craving but it was really nice to indulge without extra grease and to not get sick!

Solid smashburgers in Dorchester. The chicken looked amazing and I will come back for that. Overall, there's a few choices of burgers and you can stack more than a single patty if you want. I did a double. There's a spicy burger option which is really good. Sauce is one of the best parts of this place. I didn't care for the fries myself, since I like more of a 5 Guys hand cut style. It can be an expensive burger lunch for sure. I feel like nothing is cheap anymore though. The food is fresh so you will wait for it. I prefer that. Everything is cooked on demand. You order at the counter (on the kiosk) and they call you when it's ready. The place has an old school diner vibe mixed with a somewhat minimalist approach. Counter seating and few tables exist, but I would imagine more people do take out, since seating is limited.

Over $10 bucks for the thinnest burger patty you've ever had. Could barely tell there was meat between all the topping and thick bread. The topping overpower it quite easily. If you're going to offer a burger with many toppings then they should compliment the burger not hide it. Ended up taking all the toppings off and was sad to see the burger still lacked any flavor. It also lacked the characteristic crispy edges that really good thin smash burgers usually have. Also I arrived right at 11 when they opened and couldn't help but notice very dirty floors and floor mats leaned against tables and seating, that they then laid out and did not wash off the tables.

Chicken Tenders (4)
Wilson L.

Yeanie's is fantastic. I honestly can't think of another spot that serves chicken sandwiches, tenders, and fries this good for the price. Plus, the place itself is adorable, with a throwback diner vibe. The buffalo chicken sandwich is a 10/10 perfection. The chicken tenders dunked in Yeanie's sauce or that fiery BBQ Habanero? Another 10/10. And the fries which were crispy and seasoned another, 10/10. The only thing that didn't fully hit for me was the loaded mac and cheese since it leaned a little greasy, but honestly, if you're into Hamburger Helper, you'll probably be all about it. Yeanie's is a fantastic spot that's fun, tasty, and absolutely worth repeat visits.

This may be the best fast food non fast food burger in the city. The food was delicious and fresh, despite ordering thru a 3rd party delivery app. The burgers and fries were all so flavorful. We will definitely be back!!!

Sausage Sando

Wow this is an amazing brekkie sando. The soufflé egg was fluffy and love the smashed sausage patty. Get the Yeanie sauce which has cooked chopped onion. Easy to order online and it was made to order. Lovely staff inside

Was so good, had it twice in a week. What surprised us was the menu was a little different the two times we ordered. To preface, this review is for takeout only. The website is easy to understand and we called it in, the staff was super friendly and helpful when it came to questions. The burger is great. The yeanie sauce is delicious, a good comparison is a tasty burger but tastier. The fries are nice and crispy. The chicken yeanie both fried and grilled were awesome. The best part is you don't feel awful afterwards (compared to fast food and fast casual burger spots). One thing they need to do is keep the passionfruit habanero wings on the menu!

Smash Classic Breakfast
Taylor S.

Casual smash burger joint that is very cheery and takes inspiration from diners. Employees were very nice, you can order at a kiosk or with a cashier and food comes out within 5-12min. They recently started offering a breakfast smash "burger" (sausage patties instead of beef), and it was pretty good stacked with their signature egg soufflé, hash brown, bacon, etc. Asked to not have the caramelized and they forget, but were very nice and quickly changed it out when we asked to have them removed. Got the spicy sauce which was just a regular spicy mayo (wasn't even very spicy) which was a bit underwhelming. I thought it was going to be a really nice hot sauce, so that was a little disappointing. It was about $14 for the sandwich after tax which makes it a bit expensive, especially for Dorchester. However, it was very tasty and I'd go again for lunch or dinner to try their burger and fries.

An accident I had with the bag
Alisha M.

I was in Boston getting my hair done and remembered I was close to Yeanie's -- I've been seeing them all over TikTok and had them saved for the longest, so I knew I had to stop by. And let me tell you... it absolutely lived up to the hype. First of all, the ambience? So cute. The space was very clean, which I always notice immediately, and the aesthetic is this perfect mix of retro and modern. It has that nostalgic, cozy feel but still feels fresh and updated -- super cutesie and definitely Instagram-worthy without trying too hard. The food was amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite was worth it. It's one of those spots where you instantly understand why everyone keeps talking about it. What really made the experience unforgettable though was the customer service. I had a little accident with my bag (so embarrassing ), and they didn't just brush it off -- they fixed it for free without hesitation. So kind, so professional, and genuinely caring. That level of service is rare. Incredible food, beautiful atmosphere, and even better people behind it. Easily a 5-star experience -- I'll absolutely be back.

Chicken sando
Connie C.

Wait -- these fries are amazing... it was so seasoned and crispy! I want to order an extra large order of that. Wings were extra crispy and huge! I got the passionfruit habanero and wasn't too overly spicy, but def has a kick! The chicken sando is the breadwinner here! Love the slaw in it and the chicken was juicy and crispy! Yeanie's Burgers also hits the spot!

South Street Diner was one of the few places open that early, so I decided to give it a try. Parking was easy at that hour, and I thought it was kind of cool seeing a classic diner tucked in among all the large office buildings downtown. I was in the mood for pancakes and ended up ordering the diner special with eggs over medium, home fries, corned beef hash, bacon, and pancakes. Unfortunately, the food was mostly average to below average. The eggs were a little underdone, the home fries were slightly overcooked in spots, and the toast was pretty standard diner fare. The homemade salsa was actually a nice touch and added some flavor to the potatoes. The biggest disappointment was the corned beef hash. I was hoping for something homemade, but it reminded me of the canned version I grew up eating. The texture and flavor just weren't for me, and I ended up leaving most of it behind. The pancakes were okay but a little dense and doughy, nothing particularly memorable. On the positive side, the coffee was decent, the service was fine, and being open early is definitely a plus for travelers. Overall, I'd put this one close to 3 stars. It's convenient if you need breakfast before sunrise, but the food didn't quite live up to what I was hoping for.

I'm not sure what they offer on their regular menu because they only gave us the happy hour menu. I wonder if you're able to order something from their regular menu during happy hour? Anyways, we got three things from their "Shy Hour" menu: - Chipotle cheddar bacon smash burger ($10) - ranch fried chicken sandwich ($10) - 12 chicken bites (60¢/each) + sauce flight $2 Chicken bites were good. Not dry at all & I highly recommend paying the extra $2 for the sauce flight to try all the sauces they have. The chicken bites do come with a choice of one sauce though & is 60¢ per extra sauce. Burgers were cooked well. They were juicy & not dry at all. Very good flavor for both! I really liked the chipotle cheddar bacon burger. It was slightly sweet (maybe had a bit of maple syrup or honey?). Both burgers came with fries. The fried were your classic frites; reminiscent of McDonald's fries to us but less salty & crispier. Overall, I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would, since I'm not much of a chicken fan. I would for sure come back again, especially for their happy hour! Great deals & nice portion sizes.

We arrived just as the restaurant was opening and were surprised to see how busy it already was at 7:00 a.m.! The café had a charming, distinctly French atmosphere, reminiscent of cafés we've visited in France, right down to hearing patrons chatting in French. It certainly added to the ambiance! Since we arrived early, we were seated immediately at a cute window table, perfect for watching the city come to life. Over the next few days, we walked past several times and noticed people lining up for tables, so we were especially glad we had beaten the crowds. The service was excellent from start to finish. Our waiter was attentive and efficient, bringing water promptly, taking our order quickly, and delivering our food in what felt like no time at all. We ordered lattes, French toast, and a Croque Madame. The French toast came topped with fresh blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and banana slices. While it was a satisfying breakfast, the dish itself was fairly ordinary. I would have preferred brioche-style French toast for a richer texture, and the maple syrup was already poured over the top. Having it served on the side would have been a nice touch, allowing guests to control the amount. I also wasn't entirely sure the syrup was pure maple syrup. The Croque Madame was enjoyable as well, though neither dish was particularly memorable. Overall, Café Bonjour is a great spot for its convenient location, charming French café atmosphere, and friendly, efficient service. While the food was good enough for breakfast, it wasn't necessarily the highlight of our visit. I would come back again to try their pastries, or crêpes. I'd recommend arriving early to avoid the lines and enjoy a relaxed start to your day exploring Boston!
