Burger DaysOctober 5, 2012This joint has burgers that rival Five Guys and some KILLER hot dogs.Try the fries but do NOT miss the onion rings- they're phenomenal. Try 'em with the mango mayo. The custard concretes are good too. Read more
Janelle 💗January 27, 2014I absolutely love this spot!! The burgers and fries are Great!!! I also recommend the ''Z Sauce''!! Yummy!! I love to dip my fries in it! Ill definitely be trying more things soon! Great variety!
Andrea NewlandMay 31, 2013Stolen Concept from Five Guys but more variety in dipping sauces Z sauce and Mango Mayo...love the retro atmosphere here and the cool new coke machines...they have cheesesteaks too!!! Thumbs up!
Anna JohnSeptember 10, 2012I don't know why it is so hard to get a good veggie burger in DC, but Z-burgers is the ONLY one I crave. Got a fried egg on it, too. I don't remember them offering that at the Wisc Ave locations. Yum.
Erika WallaceAugust 31, 2013My family love Z-burger! It was the first time with the kids and we had a blast 71 milkshakes how can you choose! The food was AWESOME!
IvelissOctober 26, 2013The regular order of fries are big, enough for 3 people and the large is enough for 6. Save some money and share. Yummy
The interior, featuring alabaster columns and mythic pastoral friezes, is stunning. However, the lights over the shake station obscure the list of flavors.
Steve MinardNovember 29, 2012You'll never find a more ornate burger joint. Need to research the Tivoli Theatre history.
They validate parking..two free hours. Killer onion rings. they also have the multi-flavor soda machine.
Brad CanzeAugust 23, 2012Worth going for the Coca Cola "Freestyle" soda fountain. Lemon Coke, Cherry Sprite, Vanilla root beer, whatever the f*ck!
Julie HeinzMarch 27, 2018As a burger connoisseur I was excited to try this burger only to discover that after waiting 10 minutes it was served on a bun that wasn’t toasted and the cheese wasn’t even melted. Disappointed
Anthony VeachOctober 8, 2013After my first time eating at Z Burger, I think it may be better than 5 guys...
- Anna JohnOctober 1, 2012Irish Cream + chocolate = a milkshake so good it didn't survive the walk home. YUM.
ChrisOctober 9, 2013This place would be better if it weren't for the trashy people that camp out inside.
Just came in 30 min. before close & the manager shook his head & rolled his eyes at me. Uhh, dude, you are still very open. Unprofessional.
Lindsay RogersAugust 30, 2013Employee didn't know what was in the shake. I would of fires him on the spot if I was the owner. Almost $5 for a shake half the size of a Tropical Smoothie smoothie. Disappointing
Lisa JohnsonSeptember 23, 2012Wow! Really good turkey burgers. Z Burger never fails to disappoint. Five Guys has nothing on this place.
Angus MagooDecember 29, 2012When they are out of coca-cola don't bothering to ask this employee. She is too busy texting her BFF.
Danny MoralesNovember 15, 2012Complete concept is taken from five guys. Not nearly as good and much more costly. Beware of the 100's of fruit flies. So gross!
Anthony AgbyMarch 2, 2013You're better off going to Five Guys. Burgers and fries are better there. Only come for the shakes.
