    Holy crap this place is good. It's nice to find a delicious burger that doesn't come with a heart attack. My daughter and I each had the Lil Woody's plus bacon. The homemade queso is also fantastic!

    Delicious bun! Black bean veggie burger has a crispy crust, so no mushiness. Build your own burger (peanut butter topping!) or stick with their specialties. Get a side of addictive thin, crispy fries.

    Delicious burgers, tasty patty and an amazing brioche bun. Though, the star here is the homemade french fries, crazy good! But be careful, they are on the salty side!

    The New Mexican is not for the faint of heart (loads of jalapeños) but the queso was delicious. The Pendleton was savory and sweet with bacon, an onion ring and smothered in BBQ sauce.

    One of the top 3 burgers I've ever eaten in my whole, totally over indulged life. Opt for the larger sandwich and pile on the toppings. Throw an avocado on it to feel less guilty.

    That rarest of creatures: a legit, reasonably priced burger joint that doesn't use factory-farmed meat. No half-pounders or $35 burgers here. Think upgraded/updated Dicks. Manny's and Lucille, too.

    One of the best burgers I've ever had. Best in Seattle by far. I'll be back. Order the New Mexican with Green Chili.

    Can’t go wrong with anything here. Burgers, shakes, fries...I’ve been loving the fried chicken sandwich recently.

    Great tasting burger. Bread was good too. Bit pricey with 16 bucks not including tips. If you have a hungry belly you should size up your fries.

    This much ballyhoo'd burger and shake spot's lived up to its summer hype with six signature, hand-formed Painted Hills ground beef discs (all served on super-soft buns). Read more

    The queso is fantastic and the fries are huge. My burger I think was good but was overpowered by the large fluffy bun.

    Painted Hills beef burgers, soft brioche buns, and amazing fixings from fried eggs to pickled figs. Order the ‘Crack’ – fries with a Molly Moon milkshake for dipping!

    Try and line up inside (or wait outside) if it's cold out, you'll freeze out the kitchen staff and guests if you keep the door open.

    Solid burgers. They've got some fluffy buns, and who doesn't like that? Also got some Crack Fries. Those were tops.

    Basic burgers with tip-top toppings and beautiful beef. Should be a classic for years to come.

    Skip Dick's and head straight to Lil Woody's. One if the better burger joints in Seattle. Good burgers and Molly Moon's shakes.

    Burgers are awesome, but the morning sandwich is a great deal. Especially when just snacking after a crawl on the hill.

    I usually hate the skinny fries, but I love theirs and couldn't stop eating them! The chairs are the most comfortable ones at any burger places I've been to!

    Come here to feel better after being unceremoniously kicked out of the bars at 1:30AM with a dope veggie burger and a Cheerwine east of the Mississippi.

    Burger, fries, and crack are a must. Coffee milkshake and fries (aka crack on the menu) are unreasonably good.

    They had a nerdy burger on sale for ECCC. That’s an awesome level of care to the menu. Fries were just ok. Stick with onion rings instead!

    Fanta orange soda on the fountain. It doesn't get any better than this! You must order the queso fries and share with friends.

    Get the burgers wrapped in lettuce for a gluten free option. The peanut butter add-on is the best.
