It happened to be in Manalapan New Jersey for a basketball tournament, and I saw that 30 burgers…read morewere highly rated on yelp. I happened to be staying nearby so I decided to stop by. I walked in on a rainy Friday night shortly after 10pm and it was freezing cold on the inside. Shreya was working the register and was extremely present and nice to speak with. I asked for her recommendations and of course she suggested the burger. I took her up on that option and ordered a bacon cheeseburger. She said the fries were also a must. I was extremely hungry, so I also ordered the Chicken Club Burger, crispy instead of grilled. She asked me if there was anything else I needed and I jokingly said a side of heat. She checked with the other patrons inside to see if they were cold along with Jenn who was working and they concurred as well. Within minutes she was on the phone with the owner who quickly addressed the issue by cutting on the heat. A few moments and I could tell things were warming up. Now onto the food. Everything was hot. The burger was delicious, but nothing was too special. The fries were seasoned well and had a spicy sauce to go with them. The Fried Chicken club was AMAZING! By far the biggest chicken sandwich I had ever eaten. The chicken was juicy. I could taste the cheese and the bacon. The chicken was way bigger than the bun. I wish I had ordered two. Overall I had a fabulous time here. The seating area was clean. Customer service was excellent. They made sure I was taken care of. The food is good. If I'm in the area again id definitely stop by.

I just wish there was something fresh or crunchy to balance out all the soft textures from the bread, beef patty, and cheese. I also added beef bacon to my burger, even though it's not listed as an add on the menu. I really wish more of these newer smashburger restaurants had lettuce and/or tomatoes as an add on topping. That would help cut through the grease and make the burger feel a little lighter. The restaurant is very clean and bright, I liked the atmosphere while I was in there and the staff were nice!

Small venue in the heart of New Brunswick. Metered parking where you can find it, virtually no…read morenearby on (the same) street parking. Quick and easy ordering process, staff don't waste any time getting your order & getting to work on it. Oddly enough there is an ordering kiosk at the counter right next to where you would order with staff. I guess that is for if you're feeling anti-social. Sitting area upstairs, so it is not wheelchair or elderly friendly for the sitting area. No outdoor seating. A very hustle & bustle kinda deal. We had the double patty smash. Overall was it "WTT?" Worth The Trip....YES! Absolutely!! The burger was amazing. It tasted like the smashburger in my mind. Perfection! So even at 30 minutes from my house and horrific parking, I would definitely come back. Grades: Double Patty: A++

TLDR: quick classic lunches with old school charm…read more I got the burger and fries from White Rose. The burger was the kind you'd always hoped for in the school cafeteria: a juicy, meaty patty sandwiched between a fluffy bun. The griddled onions set this apart and bring sweet-savory little pops of flavor. The store itself feels like an old school luncheon. Everything about the spot feels nostalgic in the best way.

When I touch down in Jersey, this is always my go-to spot--I catch it right off the highway…read more Perfect for a late-night burger and fries. Somehow, Jersey just gets the fries right every time. On the way out, I usually slide back through for a pork roll sandwich. Just a heads up: this spot only carries pork products--which is cool with me--but something to keep in mind if you're looking for other meat options.

Not the sort of place you sit down and chill. There's no real seating, so the first time we…read morevisited-we walked back out. Went to the burger spot across the street. Second time around, we were looking for a place to take-out so stopped here. Got a typical Philly wit. Decent. Nice size and the bread was really soft. Not the best I had but still good.

Probably the best cheesesteak that I have had. The service can be a little slow but it is worth it…read more I can see the student eating here often. They have a good sized menu for cheesesteaks burgers and fries. The Classic heavyweight which is a foot long. They were not skimpy on meat! Cheese was all over and so good. Sliders - Nice slider size. Tender bun. Good sauce on a perfectly slight charred burger. Overall I'd be back if I am craving a cheesesteak.

I arrived in New Brunswick by train, which is to say I trusted the machinery of civilization to…read moredeliver me to lunch. It did. A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

Delicious! Great variety of sausages and toppings to choose from. If it's your first time, I…read moreencourage you to pick something off the menu and you won't be disappointed. Service was awesome, walked in 2 mins before happy hour and the waiter took our beer order in record time. He was also very attentive during our entire meal. I ordered the Andouille Armstrong and it was my fav, great snap on the dog and all the flavors complimented each other great, I also had the Si Si Guey, wasn't my favorite but wasn't horrible, I wasn't a fan of the chorizo, I felt the toppings made this hot dog. As for ambiance, it's a bar, has TV, liquor, beer, etc., but clean. If I was local I'd be a regular!

I finally checked out Buns N Shakes, and the double smash burger absolutely delivered…read more The burger came out looking exactly how a smash burger should -- crispy, lacy edges on the patties, melty cheese, and a soft glossy bun that held everything together perfectly. Every bite had that classic smash burger flavor: juicy beef, caramelized crust, and just the right balance of toppings without overcomplicating it. The fries were solid too -- hot, crispy, and the perfect sidekick to the burger. Overall the spot has a chill, no-nonsense burger joint vibe where the focus is clearly on doing smash burgers right with great service. If you're in New Brunswick and craving a proper smash burger, this place definitely hits the spot. Would 100% come back to try the shakes next time.

So the ambiance is pretty straight forward, however it really stinks in here, like chitterlings,…read morethat would be my best comparison that comes to mind. They made the food fresh, it it took mad long for there to be absolutely no one in here. I used the bathroom and was welcomed by a bowl full of piss. The service started off cool but once I notified the cashier that she charged me for fries I didn't order, she acted like I made the mistake. The best part is, you go and pick up your food by reaching over the garbage cans. The cheese fries were 10 out of 10... A nice amount of cheese whiz, plus the fries were like the coated type of fries so they were able to withstand the Cheese and maintain their integrity throughout. The wings were an 8 out of 10, I love the crispness of the wings, and the flavor, plus the garlic Parm sauce was really good, but I just wish they would've poured the sauce on the wings directly. Nonetheless, they were really good and worth ordering again.. My Son said the burrito is an 8 out of 10. I got the triple smash, and it was kinda good, however, the OG sauce is something I could go without never having again in my life and be very happy. 7/10 The milkshakes aren't bad either. I like that they were thick yet smooth at the same time if that makes sense. Although the last quarter of My Son's shake was straight ice cream that he needed a spoon to finish. also, they use paper straws that get soggy by the time you get to the end of the shake. 5.5/10 Overall, this wasn't a bad experience. The food was definitely the savior here after the trash service and horrible smells. I can just see why everyone got their food to go. If we were here for all of 45 minutes to an hour, about five customers came in to either pick up online orders via food carriers, or came in and ordered to go. Next time I'll Uber Eats.

The place seems clean and organized as well. The masala fries and the Paneer Basket appetizer from the specials menu were great. The flavor was good on the Fusion Chicken Wings - the drums were crispy and the meat was soft, but the skin on the flats wasn't crispy, and the meat was slightly chewy. For both rounds, my friend's Mango Cart beer was poured with excessive foam at the top that settled down to a shallow pour. Other than those small issues, this place is nice for a liquor store bar!

We started with the Bandoleros Wings, which are oven roasted and tossed in their Bandolero sauce. They were delicious! For tacos, my husband ordered the Bandolero Brisket Tacos and I went with the Birria Tacos. Both were really good, but the brisket tacos absolutely stole the show. They were so flavorful and the brisket was delicious. In fact, I ended up switching tacos with my husband so I could have more of his! That pretty much says it all. And then came dessert, the churros with their house-made ice cream. WOW. The warm churros paired with that creamy homemade ice cream was such a good combination and the perfect way to finish the meal. The brisket tacos and churros with the house-made ice cream are definitely on my "must order again" list. I'd absolutely come back!
