    Impossible burger w/gruyere cheese, sautéed onions, pickles, slaw, a fried egg and waffle fries (spuds)
    Tiara B.

    Definitely hard to find and easy to miss if you are not familiar with the area!Burger Bar is connected with Gallo Seafood but does also have a separate entrance. I went for lunch and sat in their outdoor patio which is nice. The burger was good and the serving size was full filling. The service was adequate, I wouldn't mind going back for seconds

    Adult Carmel Bourbon Milkshake

    Not a bad spot. I was craving a good burger and this met our expectations. The Waffle Parmesan fries wasn't bad either. The lemonade wasn't too sweet or tart. Our server was pleasant, and the food came out farely quick. I even tried the Adult Bourbon milkshake. Very good. Pricing is reasonable for a "gourmet burger". Even had the option of eliminating the bun and serving your burger on lettuce. My only disappointment was the cleanliness. We came mid day where there was no customers but still was greeted with dirty seats and tables. Crumbs on the seats and stained tables gave us an initial bad 1st impression. The service and food made up for the lack of cleanliness. Maybe as it gets nicer, we'll eat outside next time.

    This place was a great surprise: juicy burgers in the Northeast! And since No. 3rd is just too far away and not practical for kids, this is good news. Granted it's a bit expensive after ordering a 7 or 8 dollar burger and some beers (like $80 for family of 4), it's nice to know it's there if I want a burger and a beer. I ordered my usual burger fav: medium patty with cheddar, bacon and even threw on a sunny side up egg. YUM. The fries were awesome. The decor was great too.....just dark enough for the cool lighting to set the mood, trendy, modern. It was like going to center city without having to go to center city. They had a faux fireplace (digital??) in the corner that I thought was really nice. This place was decorated well enough that it's great for taking out the kids for a nice meal or having a romantic, intimate dinner on a date. Kids enjoyed their burgers, of course, well...my little one decided he didn't want to eat, but what do you want, he's 3. lol I recommend ordering minimal sides of fries (they don't come with your burger) because two people can usually share one order and as we all know, fries don't make great leftovers. Five stars for being the only burger joint of this caliber in the northeast, as far as I know. It's not cheap, like fast food is, but I can't say it's too expensive either, so I won't be reducing a star just because I'm on a budget. Definitely worth a visit.

    If you're looking for really good food and tasty drinks at a reasonable price in NE Philly, I definitely recommend checking out Burger Bar. The honey soy salmon and the crispy chicken sandwich are favorites of mine. It's a pretty casual spot. They have an indoor space that is connected to Gallo's as well as a small outdoor patio for dining. Since the pandemic, they've also added extra outside seating under a large tented area.

    House Cut Onion Rings

    I stopped here with my party of 4 for a quick bite to eat while doing some Christmas shopping. We were seated as soon as we walked it since there were plenty tables available. Service was just ok, it would have been a little better if our server wasn't doubling as a bartender. He seemed a bit over worked juggling both sides. Rather than wait for our drink refills we opted on walking up to the bar instead of waiting on the server. The food was pretty good! I ordered the classic burger and the table shared fries and onion rings. The onion rings were excellent but the zesty onion ring sauce had a kick to it. I think they may have gone a bit overboard on the horseradish. My burger was really under cooked which was a bit of a turn off but it was juicy and did have a nice flavor. I would like to visit again to try some of their other apps & burgers.

    Massive plate of onions rings that were delicious!

    A delicious burger spot in Northeast Philly! Burgers are juicy and delicious and I love that they have a "no carb" version without the buns. Although I thoroughly enjoyed my classic cheeseburger, I have to say the winner for me was their onion rings. My two friends and I orders a side of onion rings and a side of fries to share but it was enough for all 3 of us to eat as a meal alone! The onions rings we so delicious I could snack on them all day...and actually we had so much I had to take them home and did snack on them again! The service here is very friendly and quick. I had no problems enjoying a relaxed sit down lunch and still get back to the office within my lunch hour. The restaurant is very young and hip; a big contrast to the semi formal setting Gallos Seafood which it shares a space with. I really enjoyed the Burger Bar and will defiantly be back.

    Mozzarella sticks
    Bob H.

    This place is a joke. I hate to start the review off like this but it really is. We stopped in tonight because we wanted a good burger. We figured the burger bar would be the spot, unfortunately we were wrong. I hate to bash a place like I'm about to but they deserve it. Now we eat out often. Maybe 3-4 nights a week. The service here is terrible! Some of the worst we've had. The server was nice, just not a very good waitress. We were sat out on the patio area. We were the only table on the patio and the restaurant itself only had 3 or 4 tables occupied. We waited 45 minutes for 2 burgers and an order of mozzarella sticks for our daughter. It's absurd! We watched 2 couples arrive, eat and leave before we received our food. The burgers are below average. I'm shocked at all of the good reviews. The best part was my bun, it was fresh and toasted well. My wife's burger bun was so soggy when she picked it up it literally turned to mush in her hands. We both ordered the classic burger. The onions were caramelized nicely and the toppings were so so. We ordered both burgers medium and they were way over cooked! They both came out well done. If you're going to call yourself a burger bar, cook a better burger! I've had better from 5 guys. They don't serve fries or chips with their burgers either. We ordered a side of salt and keeper waffle fries. Literally no seasoning on the fries (look at picture). Now finally our daughters mozzarella sticks. What 5 year old doesn't like them? They looked good and fresh when they came out but that was deceiving. My daughter kept saying they taste funny. I tried them and they had such a fishy taste to them. Like they were fried in the same oil as all of the fish. I asked the server if they use the same kitchen as Gallo's, of course she said no. If not then they need to change the oil. The fried cheese legit tasted like shrimp, it was gross. After waiting 45 minutes for our food. We had to ask for refills, napkins and silverware. If you like terrible service and a below average burger then this is the place for you. Never again! 1 Star because I have too....

I can't tell you what an asset Stephanie is to that company.We were expecting to go eat and then maybe go someplace else for a drink, but after our experience with all of the workers as well as I mentioned, Stephanie.

If you can tell me why there was no room in an empty restaurant for a party who arrived ON TIME, please someone let me know. At any rate the bar area was fun and lively but a bit narrow to navigate. Since it was happy hour, we ordered all of the $6 Snacks and some $8 snack items. OOOK, here we go: Hot chicken slider( you only get 1 folks) very good and had the right amount of toppings 5/5 Pulled pork slider: Very flavorful, juicy, and tender: 5/5 Caesar salad: 5/5 Deviled eggs. Good, but too salty Fried pickles: Good, but too salty Chicken & Andouille Gumbo: This was excellent. The braised chicken thighs were seasoned well and very tender. The pickled red onions really elevated this dish. 5/5 The grilled salmon had a great char and crunch. It was not dry nor over cooked. 5/5 The burger was delicious just as a burger should be and the famous duck fat fries were very crunchy. 5/5 for both Happy hour is really the time to go, but make sure they honor your reservation. Til we eat again....

The Love is better. The space is beautiful, the service is consistently warm, and Stephen Starr's fingerprints are all over it. I love the painted white brick, the floral artwork along the walls, the street-level energy, and the outdoor seating. I also remember taking the elevator upstairs once. I can't remember whether we actually stayed and ate up there or asked to move back downstairs, but the space was charming and extremely private. It would be a great setting for a group dinner or event. Personally, I prefer downstairs. It's darker, livelier, and I like being at street level. The menu historically leaned more heavily into elevated Southern comfort food, which has never been my favorite style of cooking. That's probably why I've tended to prefer The Love for lunch over dinner, especially when Philadelphia has so many Starr restaurants competing for the same night out. I used to get what I remember as a salmon and farro bowl, although the menu appears to have evolved since then. Whatever the exact iteration was, I loved it. Fish and farro are both right in my wheelhouse. I've also enjoyed the kale salad and other lighter dishes. The thing I remember most vividly, though, is the cornbread. It is outrageously good and reason enough to order something for the table. I also give Starr credit for continuing to broaden the range of food styles in his portfolio. Once you've built restaurants across Italian, French, Mexican, English, steakhouses, seafood, and the rest, there are only so many obvious boxes left to check. The Love feels like its own lane: distinctly American, approachable, comfort-driven, and still polished enough to feel like a Starr restaurant. Looking at the menu now, it seems broader than I remember, with more options that appeal to me, and I'd be psyched to go back. The Love probably isn't the first Starr restaurant I'd choose purely based on cuisine, but that says more about the depth of his Philadelphia portfolio than it does about this restaurant. The room, hospitality, location, and execution are all excellent. I'd happily come here any day. Starr doesn't miss.

They overheard us talking about how The Trough would be nice (feeds 8 for $300, but was more than enough for us 9), and said if we wanted that they could get it started as the table was prepared. We said yes, and were sat a few minutes later with drinks in hand. Jenna (Gema? She had grape earrings) was a fantastic server and just so kind and attentive.

The calamari was perfectly crisp and came with the unexpected bonus of onion rings, which were ever-so-lightly battered and perfectly crunchy. And once again, the sauces were superb. The boys shared a cheese pizza, half pepperoni, and really enjoyed it. My husband ordered the burger, and yes, I stole a bite--and yes, to no one's surprise, it was amazing. We also ordered the charred broccoli after seeing everyone rave about it online. They were NOT wrong. Creamy, smoky, charred perfection. And finally... drumroll please... the 10 oz. smoked Duroc pork chop! OH. EM. GEEE.
