Good fresh burgers made to order, lots of variety, sides include basically anything that can be deep fried. Happy we found somewhere to go that doesn't half-ass it read more

This place is way WAY WAY overpriced!!! I only gave it two stars because the burger is big. All I got was a burger and it cost me 6.50 I think that's a bit much for just a burger then to top it off there's a sign that offers you a combo for 3.00 more. Really you gotta be kidding me. These guys want you to pay an extra three dollars for a .50 can of soda and over done fries I don't think so. I can get the same size burger at whataburger with a what a size drink and fries for cheaper and it will taste better. It's my first and last time visiting that place. A little tip for the owner of this joint if you are going to charge an extra 3.00 for a combo at least offer 32oz fountain drinks instead of insulting customers with can sodas you brought from SAMs at about 4.00 a case. read more

So for the first time, my wife and I visit we come in to be greeted by the rudest lady. Dark brown hair, I mean extremely rude. My wife had to ask her if it's closing time or something. The things she did, I should have recorded her. This is the first and last time. She acted as if we interrupted her day. Even now she's on her cell phone. We'll stick to mesquite. read more

I had the bacon cheeseburger, by far one of the best burgers I've had in a while! Would recommend and will be going back if I'm in the area again! read more

After a long day of mountain biking this hit the spot! Jungle burger is insane! You can tell the ingredients are fresh and not frozen. Loved being able to order via yelp during COVID19 and walk in, grab it, and go! Jalapeños are freshly grilled and add a great kick. Bacon well done so it's not soggy. I'm not a fries lover, but their skin on fries with the seasoning were awesome! Their burgers are huge so don't worry about being hungry still after haha. Thanks burger island staff! read more

Got the Double Double.... Burger was Fesh, Hearty, Meaty... Overall excellent tasting burger. Bottom bun was soggy, probably because it was a one pound burger lol... I took a few more points off this place because they don't have curley fries like the Lemon Location. This place is definite quality, would definitely recommend. read more

Burger Island - Double Double!! 4/5... Helleva Burger, a straight beast - Burgers Near Me - Irving, Texas

After 5 years living in Irving and living near by here, I finally came!!!Good size burger and got that juicy oozing out!!! Now that's a burger. I had gotten THE BIG ISLAND burger and the only thing I noticed were the cooked but cold mushrooms. read more

First time no thanks . Very nice people . French fries are over cooked , no taste in the food , burgers are ok no taste . very good onion rings read more

This is such a great burger from such an unexpected place. The homemade 1/2 burger is seasoned great and they have fresh, never frozen, fries. The amount of food you get for the price is also really good. Definitely a must go! read more

Absolutely love the huge burgers. They always come to the table Hot! Fries are wonderful, served with just a speck of pepper. Food is fantastic, but the decor, ambiance is run down. Televisions blaring with soccer matches or spanish stations. Don't try to have a conversation. This could be a cute place with a little "face lift", but don't mess with the food. read more

First time customer and disappointed. Chicken sandwich would have been good if the almost nonexistent lettuce and tomato had been somewhat fresh. The onion rings were cold and probably out of a bag. read more

Good food but they have the audacity to ask for a tip when you have to go to the counter to order, refill your own drink and bus your own table read more

The food was really good. I ordered a burger combo. Price reasonable. However customer service was horrible. I almost walked out. Really need some nicer folks to run the place. read more

Best Burgers in Irving, TX. Sometimes the food far outweighs the ambience! Lots of variety in style of burgers & different toppings to make your taste buds HAPPY Happy happy! read more

I'd like to give it 3.5 stars. No, it's not in a fancy neighborhood. No, it's not an up-to-date interior environment. It's a dive. A burger joint. Why the bashing? Some of the best food you're gonna find is in a one-off place. Menu is on the wall above the counter. They give you a number when you order and bring it to your table. Drink fountain to the left of the cash registers. Guess what, it's good! The combos are about $8.50. You get a burger as big as your face made with a hand-formed patty, the meat is seasoned, buns are toasted, and the topping choices are plenty enough and good. Had the chili cheeseburger today and it was *very* satisfying. A friend had the mushroom burger and it was topped with plenty of them. The other dining companion had a hickory burger. I assume it was good as he practically licked the plate clean. The fries are what I would categorize as long, brown, steakhouse fries sprinkled with some sort of seasoned salt. Not a huge fan of fries in general, but ate quite a few of them, regardless. Also hear that the shakes are worth it, so will have to try one next time. All in all, definitely would go there again. It's not too far from work and it's not a burger 'created and defined in a corporate kitchen with chemical testing variants to please the palate of the masses'. It's hard working people behind the counter that just know how to cook real food well. read more

The burgers here are AWESOME!!! I am glad a co-worker told me about this place and to try it out. They are huge and tasty. I would come back here again even if it is a little pricey. Its worth it. read more

O Wow this place is a hole in wall needs some serious updating and remodeling family run joint once you get past the interior and place an order the burgers and sandwiches are fabulous I had the Philly and it was spot on cooked perfect and the green peppers were grilled right with the flavor still present the lady that took are order definitely needs to work on her general overall attitude she wasn't rude or anything she just wasn't pleasant maybe she was having a day. This is a local neighborhood place for sure. If you want a good burger it's good nothing fancy here though. read more

This place is a dirty, filthy dump. The tables and floor were dirty and the silverware was also dirty. The food is WAY overpriced. And on top of that, our meat tasted a little funny. Later that night we were ALL sick from the food. Won't ever go back there again. read more

I had never even heard of this place, but my co-workers suggested going there. I loved the sandwich I got, however, the fries were really greasy. They tasted like they were just sitting in grease. I will definitely return for the sandwiches but not the fries. read more

Now that's a BURGER! Definitely found my new lunch spot when I'm craving a burger. Ordered the Jungle Burger and it was fantastic. read more

Burger Island - The Jungle Burger - Burgers Near Me - Irving, Texas

Okay, my mom always said if you have nothing good to say then don't say nothing at all.... the end. But since I never did take my mom's advice I guess I'll write a little bit more. It's a hole in the wall, so who cares about decor or lack of it. Who cares about little TVs. I really wish there were none. What I care about is hamburgers. This is the first burger place I've eaten at since I got back from a vacation to Colorado. On that trip I ate at two of the best burger places in the world (Al's in Ft. Collins) and (Arnold Burger in Amarillo---best burger place in the world!!!). So coming here to Burger Island was one of the biggest letdowns of my life. My wife and I each ordered the regular burger for $4.75. That is more expensive than the great burger at Al's and about the same price as the one I had at Arnold Burger. That's the same price as a double burger at In-N-Out which I would've preferred. First thought when I saw the burger was that it indeed was 1/2 lb. Okay, that's cool I'd asked for lettuce on mine and since they assured me the onions were chopped, I asked for a little bit of onions too. There was very little lettuce and the onions were chunks, not the chopped I thought chopped meant. I took off all the onion chunks. I took a bite and that's when my disappointment appeared. The burger was blah. There was no seasoning at all on the burger and that had nothing to do with the fact I only had lettuce on mine. I love the taste of a good burger and there was no taste to this meat. The more I ate (only because I'm a cheapskate) the more I wanted to go to Burger King or go to Kroger and buy some meat and make my own burgers. I actually make better burgers than this. It's 2 hours later and I've decided not to do that. I'm fat enough as it is at 198 pounds. So I'll save that for another day. Well, I can see why some people love this place, especially if you're chunky and just love to eat. Many people inside when we went were overweight. I think it's the same as those who go to bad buffets like Golden Corral. It's not so much that the food tastes great, but that you get a large portion. I think that's what people think here who have given it a good rating. But then again, I may be wrong. They have a large variety of burgers like the pizza burger etc. etc. Yes, if you care more about toppings than the taste of meat then this place is for you. But tell me, how can you even taste the beef with all that gunk on top of a burger? Before we left, someone took fries out to a table and I could smell the garlic on them. My thought was why didn't they put some of that garlic in the burger as they cooked it? Another negative was the buns were not toasted much at all. I must have my buns toasted As for those who spoke in their reviews about the Neighborhood, you're right, it sucks... people get murdered just down the street. Irving has turned into a ghetto over past 6-10 years and some of the worst neighborhoods sometimes have the best burger dives. Why can't we get a good place to eat burgers in North Irving? Well, I said a lot more than nothing at all. Sorry Burger Island for the phone call from Yelp you might get for my giving you this bad review. I have friends who own a restaurant and Yelp calls them after bad reviews offering them a chance to upgrade their account and reply, etc. And no, I will not be back, but I will save up my money and get back to Arnold Burger in Amarillo. Now that's place which is well worth the 360 mile trip. read more

Would never have gone here if i didn't search for a new burger place. Burgers are good and are bigger than most restaurants, the onion rings were my second favorite of all restaurants I've ever tried, and the regular fries aren't bad either. The inside of this location can use a little upgrading but not to worried about it because they put the money where it counts which is the food. They don't cheap out and give you an ok meal just so they can make money, they give you quality so you can enjoy what you eat and come back for more. read more

This place was recommended since I love Simply Burger's Turkey Burgers. First impression, Hole in the Wall Second impression: Not Cheap And Last: Definitely Not As Good As Simply Burger! Huge Burger but it tasted funny to me. Huge order of fries that were ok. Total Bill= $8.17 for a turkey burger and fries no drink... Next time, I think I'll go to Simply Burger! read more

Food: 3 stars Service: 3 stars Atmosphere: 2 stars One day, I overhead a guy at work (two cubicles over) say "The best burger I've had lately was at Burger Island." I didn't know this guy, but decided that food was a good icebreaker. I asked for the address and was there right after work. This hole in the wall place serves what is now my favorite chili cheese burger. IT's a huge burger (and takes serveral minutes to cook). The chili is flavorful and tastes homemade and the burger is well-seasoned. I like it with grilled onions, pickles and mustard. The Irving location is two doors down from a McD's - and though the burgers are double the price AND is located in a poorer neighborhood, they've managed to stay in business. That should tell you how good they are. (The tables are sticky, so I tend to order to go.) read more

"Oh my god dad, yesterday we stopped by Burger Island and it was amazing! The patties are huge, the fries well seasoned, everything was perfect. We should meet for lunch there this week" "Um...I was there the week it opened. I have been going there monthly for a long time." And that was the day I disowned my father. /The food is great, its the best little burger joint in Irving and probably the best in the midcities area //Im doing yelp slashies read more

The food was bland. No flavor. The customer base seemed to be mainly senior citizens and the elderly which is probably why the food tasted like hospital fare. They have a television on the wall and it was tuned into ESPN. It was sort of quiet. It was clean. The prices were kind of expensive. read more

Had dinner at this location last night, we just moved out here and my cousins were visiting so we decided to check this place out. Its nothing fancy as far as the building inside or out but we were so glad we gave them a try. I had the philly sandwich no mayo w/fries, only thing i didnt like was it had alot of onions but it was ok just had to remove a bit but i know for next time. My husband had the double deluxe and it was so good, the meat was so juicy!! We tried a bite from each others and you can't go wrong with either. My cousin had the big island and her husband had the chicken philly they look just as good and they were very satisfied with their choice. The fries were awsome the staff was very nice we will definitely be coming back and recommending!!!! read more

I was thinking their burgers are overpriced for being about $6 each but they are half-pound burgers so too much food for a normal person. I had the guacamole burger which would be fine but there were both American and Provolone cheeses, when I asked for no American. It was okay. The fries and onion rings were good. Fresh cut fries, not frozen. Really crispy onion rings. Not good enough to go back, but decent if you're looking for a mediocre but large burger. read more

If I could give this place -00000000000000000000 stars I would apparently the b**** behind the counter thinks it's okay to slam our food on the counter like are you serious I have never ever been treated so disrespectfully I know she didnt like the fact that I was Mexican and I didnt talk spanish to her but like c'mon are you serious could you be any more childish read more

My kind of burger. Made when you order. And not those fancy buns. Good old fashioned burger but bigger.

This place is easy to miss, but don't. The burgers are huge and delicious. I've had the Big Island Burger and the Bacon Cheeseburger. Both are great, but try the Big Island Burger for something different. The fries are homemade and seasoned well. Gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the place should be cleaner inside. read more

The burgers here are great but the cashier lady needs training on customer service. She acts as we are doing her a favor. Her expressions and demeanor is cold. I once called at 8:30 to place an order to go and no one picked up despite that they close at 9. Another time I called at 8:40 and she said they are closed... I responded aren't y'all closed at 9 and she just hung up . Don't have a sign outside that has closing hours at 9 if your not going to close at that time. Just saying! read more

Awesome Burger!!! I had the basic cheeseburger and had them add mustard. The bun could have been toasted a just a tiny bit longer but the size of the burger was crazy huge!! We ordered to go but I wouldn't want to eat there. Looked clean enough just old crappy decor. Most of the other customers were taking out also. The fries were good but a little on the greasy side. The waitstaff was very friendly and the wait for the food was under 5 minutes. They even bring in out to you all packaged and ready to walk out the door! I will defintely be back to order and burger to go. The chili cheese burger or gauc burger may be my next choice to try it out. read more

The best hole in the wall burger ever. Period. Meaty 1/2 lb burgers that taste outstanding. Do not be turned off by the unusual smell and dilapidated exterior, for the food is worth it. Along with the burger we ordered fries. Amazing fresh cut fries that did not disappoint. They come peppered, but salt wouldn't hurt. Over all a great eating experience! read more

Favorite burger spot in Irving. Burgers so big you need to cut them in half! Great fries as well.
