What can I say about Burger Kraze? Hands down the best addition to the local area in a while. Absolutely desimates ShakeShack which has lost its quality/value and has never been run well from a staff/management standpoint. Meanwhile, owner (Isaac) delivers a personal touch and pride of ownership that is unparalleled. Place is spotless and staff offers phenomenal customer service with a smile. Isaac gives his patrons numerous options. There's the classics done well with high quality ingredients and the phenomenal cultural twists to burgers, chicken sandwiches and even corn dogs. I haven't had a corn dog in forever. This was some kind of tempura-ish fried coating (with a little sweetness to the batter) that I've never seen coupled with a hot dog. I can't wait to go back for the Doritos version. Burger Kraze has already done one promotion for my son's elementary that was a huge hit. The change away from using peanut oil helps broaden the options for those that couldn't enjoy before. Just shows that Isaac has a pulse on the community and that's the touch that you can only find from a local small business owner. Cheers to the success as it's well-deserved for the Rutgers alumni! read more

Great burger. Unique twist on the sauces too with Korean influence. Thought the chicken batter was a bit thick for my taste but the flavor was solid and moist. The other burgers are delicious and the fries/onion rings were fried perfectly. Would not get another chicken burger because of the batter thickness but the other burgers are unique and delicious. Lots of seating inside as well. read more

In the quest for burger perfection I came across Burger Kraze. This is in the strip mall with Old Village Pub. This is a one off burger and Mochi Dog place ran by a really nice guy who was born and raised right here in Middletown. He prides himself on providing the most wholesome home styled food. The burger is splendid. Crispy chat on the outside and cooked perfectly inside. The toppings are fresh and the presentation is phenomenal. The Cheeto corn dog is great it's a neater delicious dog in a tasty chewy coating and topped with Cheetos there is also a crispy potato and a Doritos version. Guys you have to try this place it's the best burger in town. The dining area is nice and open. Awesome pop music playing and the video menus are beautiful. I promise if you want a burger you will be totally impressed. read more

Amazing corn dogs. We got the ramen, spicy Cheeto, Dorito, and an original. All were awesome! CHEESE PULL was perfection. Fresh and made to order not just sitting under a hot light. Employee's were welcoming and professional. Nice clean establishment, really nice vibe. Will definitely be back to try the fruity pebbles covered one, and their burgers cause they looked amazing! UPDATE: Went back for the fruity pebbles corndog, also ordered a double kraze burger and the onion rings. Awesome! Burger was so fresh made to order, fresh ingredients and awesome grill flavor. Corn dog was a nice mix of sweet and salty. Onions rings were normal onion rings, but still were delicious. read more

Food is OK. Nothing really special. I had a basic Cheeseburger and Fries. My main knock is the cost. $20 for a burger fries and drink is a bit much for b what it was. Similar to Shake Shack in taste and cost. read more

Very good experience here. The smash burger was excellent, made even better by the (largish) patty size-atypical but good for its type. Being brand new the place is spotless, and I'm sure it'll stay that way. Fries are bigger than standard, almost a hybrid steak fry size. Next time I'll ask for them unseasoned, as they use a spice salt not to my taste. read more

Burger Kraze - A cross between regular and steak fries, perfectly cooked but don't like the seasoned salt they use. - Burgers Near Me - Middletown, New Jersey

The best burgers in Middletown hands down. The OnYo rings (onion rings) are really addictive, I 'm not a fried food guy, but they are perfection! read more

For anyone looking for an exceptional fast-casual burger experience, this restaurant is easily one of the best in the area--and quite possibly one of the best in New Jersey. The Kraze Cheeseburger is an excellent choice, featuring a flavorful burger sauce that makes it especially memorable. The Bulgogi Burger is another standout, with its spicy mayo bulgogi sauce adding a bold and satisfying kick. The mini Korean corn dog was delicious, and the cheese-filled Potato Corn Dog was outstanding: mozzarella wrapped in a flavorful dough, rolled in diced potatoes, and fried to crisp perfection. The side options are also well worth trying, especially the fries, truffle Parmesan fries, and onion rings. Overall, this is a restaurant I would gladly return to, and I am looking forward to trying the chicken sandwiches next time. read more

The corn dogs taste just like the ones you'd get at the state fair. The potato dog is the standout and makes ordering fries unnecessary (even though the steak fries are good too). The Klassic Dog with Japanese mayo comes in a close second (and if you skip the mayo, I don't trust you). The Dorito dog had great flavor but was definitely too salty; would love to see them offer a mini half-size option for that one. The Rainbow Dog was a miss. The cereal topping doesn't stick well, and the sweetness feels off balance. The burger was fine, but with Hey Burger right nearby and clearly the better burger spot, it's not something I'd order here again. On the bright side, the milkshakes were good; they've got a homemade taste that Shake Shack can't match. I'd 100% come back just for the corn dogs and shakes. read more

A must try food was delicious and the staff was friendly. Highly recommend the burgers and corn dogs. read more

The food was fantastic! The service was great! Very friendly! The place was a typical fast food place. Nothing fancy. It was clean, especially the bathrooms. We visit MSK hospital in the area often and glad we found this place. The place is a little hidden but don't let that stop you. It's worth it!!!!!! Keep up the great food and service!!!! We will be back! read more

What a find! Independent burger joint that is accessible AND has a personality! In a world overrun with mid fast food burgers, this Korean inspired place produces an amazing fresh cooked burger - even the veggie toppings were quality. Also the onion rings were killer (one of the easiest things for a restaurant to mess up). The ambiance was casual and pristine, and Isaac the owner is about the friendliest entrepreneur I've met! read more

This place is a gem for the area! I got a bulgogi burger, the new ramen Korean corn dog, and a cinnamon maple milkshake, and honestly... insane. The burger had super tender beef on top and a really tasty spicy mayo that made every bite perfect. It was sweet, savory, and juicy. For the corn dog, I did half hotdog and half mozzarella. It had a wild cheese pull and was perfectly crunchy. The milkshake was thick, creamy, and the maple cinnamon combo was the perfect cozy touch for fall. Everything here is definitely worth trying. read more

The food is well seasoned and delicious! The service was excellent and you can either do take out or eat in. You will not be disappointed!

Came to Burger Kraze after seeing One and Done eating there. Everything we ordered was great...burgers, drinks, disco fries! Can't wait to go back. Thank you Burger Kraze and thanks again to One and Done!!! read more

Gave it a try. Morning burger (with egg) was fabulous. Went back a second time and again excellent. Great service.

I should've reviewed this sooner, but forgot! We went shortly after their opening and enjoyed the quirkiness of the food! There's nowhere else around here (to my knowledge) that has anything like it! Service was fast and they have comfortable seating. The one thing that surprised us was the price of their milkshakes, and we wouldn't splurge on them again unless they reduced the price. All in all, it was a great meal and we would go back. read more

Tried this new spot to check out the burgers. I only ordered the double smash cheeseburger, plain but with onion straws. As others have said, the burgers were big - but they were not "smashed". More like just a double. I like my burgers medium well but these were overcooked a bit because there was zero juice left in them. Still an ok and filling burger. Would have been a 5 if burgers were really smashed and had some char and juice. Inside is clean and has about 8 nice tables if you want to eat in. Owner friendly. Wish them good luck with the business. read more

One of the best hamburgers I have had for both taste and value. The service was fast and the food is fresh. Not much of a dine in experience only a few tables. More of a to go place. read more

food is good nice service and it's a takeout Location is off the highway and they are across from Applebys

The mushroom Swiss burger was juicy and flavorful, had a nice crispy edge on the smash burger. The whole grain mustard sauce added a nice flavor that you won't find on any other burger joint. It was delicious . The owner who works the counter was very friendly and enjoys talking with the customers. I'll definitely be back to try the Bolgogi burger and the hot dogs . read more

Hands down best Burger in Monmouth County. Meat is fresh and well seasoned. Fries are also excellent, thick cut and crispy outside but very moist inside. Skip other Burger spots around. read more

Food is good but price is way too high especially for a take out kind of place. I rather go to a diner for a good burger. Don't think I'll be going back. read more

Excellent food, service and experience. Delicious burgers, great corn dogs and amazing sides. Super friendly and efficient staff, clean dining room - a great addition to town and owned by a local! read more

Not a fan of the gendered stalls, but other than that it's very yummy! Would recommend to friends

If you want an In-N-Out burger experience on the east coast, this is the place! For those of you that have tried it and having just come back from the west coast trip where my taste buds are memory fresh, I have to say Kraze burger or cheeseburger comes very, very close. I could not be happier and the fries are excellent too. Run, do not walk and compare for yourself! read more

Probably one of the best burgers I've ever had, it's like if Koreans made American food (exactly what it is) The meat is cooked perfectly, the toppings go well with it. This is one of those places that you could get a plain burger and it would still be spectacular. It has an authentic atmosphere, and is very chill to be in. The guy was very nice(presumably the owner) and service was extremely quick. Definitely a place I'd go again. I would recommend the double kraze as that was spectacular. read more
