    This is the best food I ever had in the world the fries are really crunchy and delicious. The service was incredible and they treated all my needs and the inside was very nice and clean.

    The owner, Peter, is an absolutely wonderful host! We came for a midnight snack and he was so gracious and welcoming. He was thrilled when he learned we were locals. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his burgers. He warmly invited us to dine in instead of taking carry out. He told us a lot about the history of the area. And he gave us a bottle of water. The burgers and fries were definitely yummy. The old bay fries were perfectly seasoned and salty. The burger was z style and nicely prepared. The portions were generous. You see a lot of AU students coming in at night which is expected but it was a great place. I would love to come back.

    Been here multiple times and have always had a good experience! The food is good and love all of the multiple options. Usually I get overwhelmed by so many choices but at a place like this and with the great service that you get, it makes it a lot easier. I've had the burgers, chicken burgers, cheesesteaks, hot dogs, fries, onion rings, LMAO almost a little of everything haha. I still haven't been able to try the shakes though. It reminds me of Cookout (if you're from the south). Of course be aware you're not coming here for something (necessarily) HEALTHY but you're coming here for something GOOD. Great fast food in Tenleytown~ I particularly love the photo collage of the staff on the wall. It warms up the environment. Also there's plenty of spaces to sit, even outdoors. Again, the service is what makes this place extra awesome. And I know they support the community in various ways too so support them back!

    My quick turkey burger !! Z-BURGER is actually the Best!

    Always such friendly kind service!! This is seriously my favorite burger place ever. I'm a very picky eater so take it from me if you just want to grab a bite and get excellent service this is your place.They also offer vegan,doubles, turkey and chicken sandwiches.Grab a milkshake and enjoy. By the way it's extremely clean.

    Hamburger Fries Onion Rings

    Worst burgers with burnt fries and over recooked onions rings, I/We ever ate! The mint shake had mint flavor passed over the blender. Z Burger was a "No,No Don't Do It!" We took one for our generations..don't,don't, do it!!! Why charge a package fee, $2.28 and this was a dine-in "almost regurge-a-meal?"

    One of if not the best burger around town. service was excellent. The owner Peter was very nice and very welcoming he even gave myself my daughter and her friend a free milkshake. He didn't have to do that but glad he did. Now the burger and fries were delicious and so was the milkshake. Peter thank you for a very pleasant meal and a nice atmosphere. will definitely be back. Also they had a carotid juice drinks that were different and Dee-licious!!!!!!!!

    Cheeseburger (double patty)
    Keisha L.

    Met up with the crew for a burger like brunch at Z-Burger and let's just say we all left with a food coma. No, they do not offer a brunch but it was breakfast/lunch time when we all arrived so we dubbed it a Burger Brunch!! A hungry bunch we are, we tried a little bit of everything from the menu!! These are in no way you average burger, either and if you are a one patty wonder, come and elevate you burger bite!! The patties on the burgers are fresh and made with care. Juicy and tender sirloin meat that will have you doing a double take, all for good reasons. Toppings are fresh and plentiful and actually match the size of the burgers. If you are not big on bread, you can get a bun-less burger as well, all you gotta do is ask! The fries are amazing!!!!! Double fried so wen you break it in half you hear the snap yet it is still a pillowy potato on the inside. Dip them in the Z sauce and you are in business. Literally, you can put the Z sauce on dang near anything and your taste buds will thank you!! Take the onion rings for a spin as well because they are satisfying as well. Did I tel you how crispy the chicken sammie is? With or without bacon, your choice of course, you have never had a chicken sammie like this!! The flavor is pure!! Not too much crispy exterior, juicy and tender meat interior and just down right yummy!!! The chicken is actual chicken breast, no thighs here at all!! If you love a cheesesteak, come and get it here!! Whether its steak of chicken you will not be disappointed!!! Fully loaded and fantastic you will find that you are full yet you continue to eat because the food is just that good!! You need a drink now right? You need a milkshake!!! With quite a few flavors to chose from they are sure to have one that catches your eye. Do not fret,the shakes are thick so they do not melt easily. The staff is the best!! Peter went out of his way to ensure our large party was taken care of and to make sure we had everything we needed during out stomach filling session. Luckily, they have a lot of space at this location so you are able to find somewhere to sit even when they are busy between the indoor and outdoor seating. If you are looking for a good burger, look no further and do it the Z way!!!

Server came by, not so much as a greeting or introduction, just a short, "do you know what you want?" Fine - no problem. We ordered two avocado toasts and side of fries to share. Now, the menu clearly says the avocado toasts are served with a "runny egg". Ok sure, no problem. What i did not anticipate was a half raw egg with the yolk swimming in a sea of translucent completely uncooked "whites". It was like a golden disc encased in a snot rocket. Ok, maybe that's their "runny". Slide it off the toast and press on - snail trail of mucus be damned. The avocado spread was great - bright, citrusy, and well seasoned. The "hot sauce" was likely from a bottle and could have been left off. The radishes would have benefitted from being tossed in lemon, salt and pepper. The image of the "runny" egg was too much so I ate half the toast serving and meandered to the fries. Not bad, crispy , hot, and...wait...sweet...something is off, I can't put my finger on it but at least it's not a raw egg. I keep eating. My kids looks at me and says, "do these remind you of funnel cake?" THAT'S IT - FUNNEL CAKE. We have both had enough, ask for the check. The server comes by gives me the clunky machine, I tap and put it down, he reaches for it and I say, it's processing, I still have to sign...and then he starts snapping his fingers...WHAT IN THE ACTUAL €¥($ ARE WE DOING RIGHT NOW?!? Never again. Never, again.

For good service, know how to offer properly (at the kiosk or using the QR code at your table) and be patient. Times are tough for us all and not every restaurant will be fully staffed. We came on a busy Friday night, but we were kind to the bartender who was the only one making drinks for a restaurant full of people inside and out. Pick a beer from their long list of offerings (easily numbered 1 to 24 on tap) and sit back and enjoy. Five stars for the food: a deliciously crispy and juicy chicken sandwich and classic cheesy tater tots.

I waited for someone to come out and finally had to bang on the kitchen door to get someone. I know you are trying to save money by having a bare bones staff, but if you want to keep people coming in, HIRE A FEW KNOWLEDGABLE BARTENDERS. & ENOUGH WAIT STAFF. Also, it's so obvious your ordering system has problems, so get the bartenders and wait staff to take orders.

    Absolutely disgusting experience. I ordered wings, fries, and cookies from Wingo's for a group of…read morefriends I was hosting. One of the individually wrapped cookies arrived with a large portion visibly eaten away, and the packaging itself appeared to have been chewed through. Based on its condition, it appeared to have been gnawed by a rodent. I was so nauseated by what I found that I threw out the entire order. I was not comfortable serving or eating food that had arrived alongside a packaged item in that condition. What makes this even worse is the response afterward. Uber Eats refunded me only for the single cookie, rather than the meal I discarded because of the apparent sanitation issue. I then contacted Wingo's directly to give the restaurant an opportunity to address what happened and received no response. I understand that restaurants can have problems and that delivery issues happen. But receiving food with packaging that appears to have been chewed through and the food partially eaten is a serious food-safety concern. Ignoring a customer who reports something like this makes it considerably worse. I would strongly encourage anyone considering ordering from Wingo's to avoid it. This was easily one of the most revolting food-delivery experiences I have ever had.
