Well we finally made it back here for dinner on a Wednesday night. We started with the pretzel…read moreflight. SO disappointing. The sauces were good, especially the beer cheese (at least they haven't changed that). What was pretty terrible were the pretzels themselves. They take the longer soft pretzel logs and cut them into bite size pieces. And then they are FRIED. Who fries soft pretzels? They were hard and greasy. This is the first time in our history of ordering a soft pretzel appetizer that we just couldn't finish it. They were that bad. For entrees Hubby ordered the crispy chicken Caesar and I got the burger with fries. Hubby's salad was huge, but there was way too much Parmesan cheese. He never did get a good taste of the dressing because of that. The chicken on the other hand was well fried and still juicy inside. I ordered my burger medium, and it came out mid-rare, which is how I eat them anyway. The burger itself was salty - guessing the flattop maybe hasn't been cleaned after lunch? The top bun spent a little too much time on the flat top as well. The pickles they use are sour (some people like that, I don't mind), but if you are not a fan of sour pickles, you'll want to skip them. Service was fantastic and it's a very clean place (restrooms are particularly clean). I am sure it is a great place to go for drinks - the bar is pretty extensive. But since we don't bar hop anymore, I don't think we will be going back. One last word on the pretzel appetizer because I am still shaking my head over that. If you want to serve pretzel bites so there are more ways to try all the dipping sauces, just purchase pretzel bites and bake them.

The waitress we had was really friendly & provided efficient service. The beer list is extensive and there's also plenty of mixed drinks and liquor as well. The menu is filled with a lot of different options. There's something for everyone for sure. A lot of casual but elevated bar foods. I went with the chicken tender platter and I'd get it every time I go back. Perfectly cooked tenders, fresh cut fries, a bowl of their homemade Mac and cheese & coleslaw. All for think $19? That's a steal, and ended up taking half of it home. This is definitely a place that we will continue to come back to. There's another bar & pool tables in the back as well I believe!

Everyone was vey happy, especially those in the party who ordered the spiciest burger on the menu.

Everyone plays on their phones through a QR code, so the room stays pretty calm. No shouting answers or chaos, just a lot of people quietly locked into trivia. I was seated immediately and ordered The Big Cheese burger. At first glance, it looked promising. The beef seemed like quality meat and not a frozen hockey puck. The vegetables were also very fresh. No sad, limp lettuce or those weird mushy tomato slices some places try to pass off as fresh. But here's where things went sideways: the patty had almost no flavor. I'm honestly not convinced it met salt at any point during its journey to the plate. It wasn't bad, just noticeably under-seasoned. For a place that positions itself as a serious burger spot, seasoning the meat feels like Burger 101. The fries were good. They offer different seasoning options, but I kept it simple with salt and pepper. I also ordered the Cheerwine sangria, which sounded like it would be something special. In reality, it mostly tasted like regular sangria that someone carbonated. Not bad, just not particularly interesting. Service was friendly and quick, which I appreciated. Overall, the meal was fine. But when your whole mission is basically "we're the burger experts," it's a little surprising when the burger tastes like the seasoning got left in the kitchen.

The sweet Thai chili salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The BBQ pork flatbread was not greasy and full of flavor. Not a very big place, they do have outside seating that's covered though. This is a hidden gem in VA Beach that I hope stays that way.

Simply George Burger Joint is located in the Kempsriver Crossing Shopping Center in Virginia Beach…read more Since they are in a shopping center, they were pretty easy to find. Although this shopping center tends to be on the busier side, there were no issues with parking for any of the visits I have made there. My most recent visit here was on March 23, 2026. From the outside, it can be hard to spot them at first with the sign colors similar to businesses around them. The full name is Simply George Burger Joint. The overall view outside lines up with how the rest of the shopping center looks like. I found out looking at the info on the windows outside the business that they are part of the La Oficina Steakhouse & Cantina and Maracaibo Bistro Venezuelan Kitchen & Cocktails. I'm always up for trying something new, and that's why I came in for my first visit on February 13, 2026. When I came inside, it gave me the feel of travel and such with Route 66, cars, etc.. It's a small place inside, but that can be a good thing too. The tables are set up with booth type seating on one side of the table and rolling chairs on the other side of the table. There is a story about this business on the wall to the right after entering. On this first visit, I saw that it was showing they opened at 4 pm, but they actually opened at 11 am. I let them know about that too so it can get updated. They do serve alcohol here, and they have beers, wine, cocktails, and a house liquor. My mom was with me on this visit, and we could choose any table we wanted. Menus were already available on the tables that weren't occupied, and as soon as we got seated and settled, our server came over asking what we wanted to drink. I went with my usual, which is water with lemon. They have Coca Cola products here, so my mom had a Coca Cola soda. It took us a bit of time to choose what we wanted. I ordered first, and then my mom ended up ordering the same thing I did. I decided to go with The Camaro Burger with pepper jack cheese, which is a double beef patty with bacon, F1 sauce, and cheese choice. We both ordered Fries from the Extras menu. I watched as they were getting the food together, as they have an open kitchen for viewing. It didn't take long for everything to be ready. Although everything basically just fit into their plates, the burger was full of flavor. I really liked that F1 sauce on it, so I added more as they are at the tables too with the other condiments. Overall, this was an excellent first visit. Fast forward a little more than a month later when we came back on March 23, 2026. We came in a little after 3:30 pm, so it wasn't too busy, but since things were so good the first time we had to come back. They have a pretty small staff, so we had the same server as we did on our first visit. We both got the same drinks we did the month before. When it came to food, I wanted to try something other than fries. This time I ordered the Impalaquenos (Venezuelan Cheese Sticks). The Impalaquenos were really good. The sauce that went with it complemented it well. That sauce was a Garlic and Cilantro Sauce. I changed up the burger I would get this time. I went with The Malibu Classic Burger, which includes double beef patty, lettuce, tomato, F1 sauce, and cheese of choice (pepper jack cheese for me). Although it was extra, I did add bacon and onion to it. My mom went with The Camaro Burger again, but she did add onion to it as well. It was nice to watch as they were getting the food together. Everything came out hot and they were just as good as the time before. Since it wasn't too busy at the time, I asked some questions about the business. The business came about after winning the 2025 COVA Battle of the Burgers. I also asked about the F1 Sauce that is so good. The F1 Sauce is made from pickles, onion, ketchup, mayo and garlic. Overall, these have both been excellent visits here. The food and service were on point both times. If you pay by a credit or debit card, there is a 3.5% admin fee to cover their cost for using such card. Although the menu is small, there's still a good amount of flavors to choose from. I know some will say costs are high, but everything is these days. These burgers were worth it for us. If you're in this area of VIrginia Beach and looking for a burger place to check out, this place is definitely worth it.

Simply George Burger Joint & Beer 1309 Fordham Dr #106,…read moreVirginia Beach, VA 23464 In Virginia Beach, a burger joint lies waiting for customers. Entering the place, I am welcomed with a diner bar and grill and hints of a mechanic shop theme. It really gives the restuarant a down to earth Americana vibe. I felt very comfortable here. The hotdog came to me in a nice slightly toasted bun and it was quite big. It makes me wonder if I'm eating a sausage or a regular weiner. Regardless, it had that nice slightly smokey taste and you definitely taste that it's 100 percent beef. The fries were pre-cut, but were fried well and came out crispy. There were almost perfect and tasted great with ketchup. Not too salty, it had the right amount of seasoning. The Caramelized burger was very impressive. The bun was served soft, meat well done, and the onions add a certain crispiness to the gooey melted cheese in a good way. It was delicious with each bite, especially with their customized F1 sauce. The Mustang Burger had the american cheese perfectly melted on the patty with shredded lettuce, tomato, and onion. Quite sincerely cooked with a well done patty. I recommend the Mustang Burger with the F1 sauce and a dash a ketchup. If I had to choose between the two, I like The Caramelized the most. It definitely won this race. So, if you want to find a laid back joint to try some American food. Check Simply George out!
