It's so clear that the meat used in these burgers are high quality. I don't eat meat very often but occasionally crave a good burger. Most times I give in to these cravings I immediately feel the heaviness of the meat sitting in my stomach and most times regret eating meat at all. But I decided to give in to this craving at Burger Monger (although they have the option for Impossible meat) and I was NOT disappointed. I didn't feel the usual gross and heavy feeling after eating meat. Instead I felt satiated. One ULTIMATE BACON CHEDDAH burger and a single portion of fries later, I was happy as can be. Looking forward to going back for seconds. read more

Waited for 5 minutes before anyone came to the counter. Lady had 0 idea what a Buffalo chicken cheesesteak was. Took about 10 minutes to finally get my order understood. 4 people all shouted my order confirming what it was and finally I thought they had it right. He kept asking if I wanted fried or grilled chicken? I've never had a chicken cheesesteak with fried chicken so was confused. Ended up getting home and they gave me a grilled chicken sandwich. Last time I'll go. And is a complete headache. Stay farrrr away read more

Wanted to believe the hype, but... meh. The fries were great, and paired with the truffle Parmesan ketchup that really was a delightful bite. But both of our burgers were very dry. The mushroom Swiss burger, the veg was good, but the bit of sauce the mushrooms brought didn't make up for the dry and tasteless burger they sat atop. And the chocolate fudge milkshake... I probably should have told them that it tasted like burned plastic, maybe there was something wrong with it, but I really just wanted to leave. I don't like paying $40 for a meal and throwing most of it away, but we didn't even bring the uneaten burgers home for the pups, I just, as I said, wanted to go get some frozen yogurt to get over the disappointment. Lots of other places to try, I'm gonna pass on this one again. read more

Very solid burger place. The meat by itself is spiced well. Most burgers around town are bland but not here. Staff is friendly and hardworking. Love this spot highly recommend. read more

The burgers were half the size they used to be and i was coming here ritually. spent 26 bucks on two burgers and i coulld bought a mc double that was bigger than their patties. the service in this place has gone to crap. you will be unsatisfied with the product for the price. they are literally scalping the burgers to make more profit. keep in mind when i got there i had placed an online order. tell me why the cashier tried to take payment from me again? this placed should be rated with one star now as its quality of burger has deminished. read more

Blah and overpriced. I wanted to order the veggie burger but they said they cooked it on the same flat top as bacon and burgers. I looked at the flattop and it was greasy and dirty looking with a lot of meat scraps. Hubby ordered brunch burger and I ordered a salad and we shared fries. Brunch burger was $12 and while he ate it he said it was to greasy and he took the bacon off as it wasn't cooked enough. Fries were very undercooked and very greasy too. I found out after they cook their fries in beef tallow ewww not advertised in the restaurant and not suitable for vegetarians. The best thing at Burger Monger is the free toppings. And I like to load up my salad with veggies and the kraut. They added all the toppings I asked for on my salad to my husbands burger. Luckily he isn't picky but he had to deconstruct his burger prior to eating it. I asked for the toppings I ordered on my salad and they were promptly brought out on the side with an apology. But I left very dissatisfied and felt ripped off for $35 lunch. Never going there again. read more

Omg yummy!!!!! Burger was so delicious and made perfectly.. My husband hasn't had beef in 3 years and decided to have a burger with me, he was absolutely amazed how great the burger was. One of the best burgers I've ever had. read more

Ordering online was very smooth, thanks to incentivio. But we found that the location in Old Northeast, St. Petersburg, was a poor addition to the number of places advertising premium burgers. For one thing, Yelp indicates it has outdoor seating, but in fact it we didn't even find anywhere we could park for the supposed curbside pickup. The spots out back were for the adjacent Tropical Smoothie Cafe. The burger was a good size, but cold. The bun was shaped like the advertised challah bun but had none of its texture or character. The tomato on mine looked unripe. My mother enjoyed her chocolate fudge shake but it was clearly not prepared to order, and we'd asked for no whipped cream but it had a lot of it. Not a problem but an indication of being premade and sitting in a cooler for who knows how long. The fountain drinks come in little cups you fill yourself and make no sense if you are taking the food to go and you can't refill them. So two burgers, only one with cheese, one shake and one soda cost $30, which is ridiculous for what you get. Next time we are in the area we will eat again across the street at Three Birds, where the menu is adventurous, the food excellent, the dining is outdoors and the prices are reasonable. read more

Burger Monger opened months ago near my home, and I finally stopped by to give them a try. Since they are a chain, I am more likely to frequent other local burger spots on 4th Street for atmosphere instead. I went for the full YOLO, ordered; burger with lots of stuff on it, fries, and a shake. We had some issues with the service being really slow. Fries came to our table, then eventually the burgers. After that, we have to go to the counter and demand our shakes. Guess it's our job to demand the items that we paid for to actually receive them. The experience dining here was not good, even though the food was delicious. Fries come in various sizes, get the largest size because those fries are damn spiffy. The burger patty was tender and juicy, just like something you would make at home. Fries were hand cut perfection, duh. The shakes are made of Haagen Daaz, so they are to die for. Overflow of shake abundance comes in one of those amazing chrome cups with frost on the outside. Sigh. What would make the experience perfect is if you could have all three at once. And, eat them together. Like a meal. Like take a bit of burger, chew, and swallow. Grab a dry, chew, and swallow. Sip the shake and swallow. Repeat. Unfortunately, I purchased all three together and were served them within 15 minutes of one another. There were groups of friends at tables sitting around and hanging out. Not eating, and there was even a table playing board games. So, I guess it is just a cool place to hang out. Even though the atmosphere kind of reminds me of a sub shop. read more

I really dig this place and I have been finding myself thinking of Burger Monger every time that I want a burger now-a-days. They can be pricey. I would recommend trying them on a Monday when they have $5 basic burgers. You also need to be aware that some toppings cost extra and can add up (like Brie, grilled pineapple, feta and bacon). They apparently use a different level of beef than most places: Akushi beef. They will gladly explain it to you. I personally notice a difference in taste. The burgers aren't as greasy and they are deeply satisfying. The best part about Burger Monger in my opinion is the toppings! There are SO many toppings that you probably cannot think of one that is missing from the list. I adore the balsamic tomatoes. They also have Intensity Academy sauces on their menu which is an awesome way to support a great local company. Roasted Red Peppers? Mustard Kraut? Chicago Neon Green Relish? Check, check, check. The fries are nothing special, but they give you that little bit of a break from the burger. My Husband and I normally split an order. I have also tried their chili fries (only available as a large order) and they were different, but pretty tasty. Really, you go here for the burgers. Although the salads and mac n'cheese are on my list to try. Burger Monger is definitely a welcome addition to St. Pete and one of my new favorite burger spots. read more

Absolutely HORRIBLE experience. I am sick and pregnant and my boyfriend went in to get our food all I asked for was two sauces and (keep in mind my boyfriend is very respectful man) the lady said "wow does she want anything else I feel sorry for you I'm even annoyed with her" VERBATIM. my boyfriend came back to the car shocked and in disbelief at how rude she was I would have went inside but again IM SICK. Food was disgusting on top of it. Never going back ever. read more

Very clean and open. Friendly staff. The building echoed horribly and amplified any and all noise. The food was good for the most part. They really should ask how you would like your burger cooked. Mine was overly well done. Onion rings and fries were yummy and the kids enjoyed their kids meals. read more

Delicious beef and great burger for this kind of quick service place. Far and away better than smashburger, shake shack and the like. It's the bleu cheese grilled onion for me. Wish the fries were thicker but that's not what you come for. It's the beef! read more

Holy chili-fied canoli... I had the chili cheese burger and dag gummit that thing was off the cotton pickin chain !! Will definitely be back as many times as I can !!! read more

The amount of options here were pretty much endless - rare for a vegetarian. With 2 base veggie options (rice and bean patty & the impossible burger) you can make a ton of unique burgers by switching up the toppings. I went with the rice and bean burger which held up very nicely and wasn't crumby or falling apart. The veggies on it were super fresh and made for a nice, classic American burger. The fries were okay, a little greasy for my taste. We went in a little late, about an hour and half away from closing but the staff was still very helpful and friendly. Our cashier noticed my boyfriend didn't order cheese with his burger when he dropped it at our table and was super nice to ask if he wanted any, then brought it out to us. Will definitely be back to try the impossible burger and the onion rings. read more

The staff was super friendly, the food I'm sorry to say was mediocre. My "shake" was super thin and the consistency of chocolate milk. My burger was good, but sopping with grease and the Fry's we're limp and soggy. read more

Took forever to get food. They got the order wrong. Fries served cold. Burger tasted fishy!

The food here is definitely good and *can* be a great deal if you don't get too crazy. The staff was also all very friendly. We were excited to come for the $5 Burger Monger special on Monday, but once I added all my toppings and a glass of wine, it came to $15. (I actually think they might not have charged me the $5 price but the receipts don't break that down unfortunately.) The beer and wine are reasonably priced too - $5 for a glass of wine or $20 for a bottle. $5 and less for beer. You do also have to pay extra for fries, which brought my boyfriend's bill to $17. So while this CAN be a cheap place, it can add up quickly. That being said, I am a sucker for build your own places like this. I love trying weird combinations of all the toppings I like, so this is my heaven. And many of the toppings and sauces are free. It's just things like cheese (which they have a nice selection of!) and extras like guac (my weakness) or bacon that add to your bill. As for the burger itself, it's a step up from fast food but to be honest I kind of prefer that to a burger that is too meaty - it lets the toppings shine! Oh and their burger monger sauce is good - fill a couple little dip cups with it and use it for your fries! All in all, I will be back to try another topping combo (sans guac - too pricey and too messy) and probably a milkshake. read more

Wow I love this place! Very cool! So think of Five guys but a lot less greasy and with a lot more options and with a much better quality and you have Burger Monger! A very young and friendly staff here but don't worry I counted 3 supervisors watching them like Hawks and working shoulder and shoulder with them. You can tell that to leadership here their "Brand" is very important to them. Very clean, but a bit confusing when coming in the front door everyone wants to go right instead of left to order due to the booth placement and lack of adequate signage. Definitely need a larger sign to indicate this or to move the registers and/or booths. I do love the "kitchen transparency" you can see the kitchen and employees. I love it because I know not only who's making my food but I see them washing their hands and maintaining a clean work space. Was disappointed that the cashier could not tell me what Akaushi Beef was but I quickly saw a sign to explain on my table. This business looks, runs, and is has qualities I would have in my own business. Would be a great investment for someone looking to get into the burger game franchise. I have heard there are a lot in Tampa but this one seems to be the only one down in this area, (hint, hint) Tyrone Mall area! Ok so that benign said this places "claim to fame" seems to be their Akaushi Beef (See photo of sign) this is a type of Wagyu beef apparently I have never heard of but MAN does it make a killer lean burger. Not greasy at all. Loved all the topping options very cool. The garlic goodness sauce is out-fing-standing, oh lord. The chili cheese fries had a great (obviously fresh) chili but the cheese sauce was lacking flavor. The pickles were fresh thick cut and crispy. This quality does come at a price though you will spend $7 on a single patty burger but it is very satisfying especially with the right sauce and toppings. I am willing to pay for quality and Burger Monger has definitely given other local premium burger joints a run for their money, Watch out Engine 9! Great job guys! read more

Came in for a burger and fries. I heard good things about this place so decided to check it out. I ordered the vegetarian burger with lettuce, tomato, spinach, Swiss cheese, grilled mushrooms and spicy mustard. I also ordered the fries. I grabbed a seat outside and my food arrived fairly quickly. The hamburger looked great. Huge size patty with black beans as the base. Produce looked and tasted fresh. I loved how it tasted all together. The fries serving was quite large but I didn't like the fries that much. It was thin sliced fries with potato peels. It did not taste fresh. Nonetheless, this place is totally worth coming to for the burgers. They even have nice local beers as well as wine. The staff was very nice and helpful and the place looks very welcoming read more

Gross. I ordered through DoorDash and got the portobello burger and fries. The burger was pretty pathetic for $9.50 and then I found a hair in the lettuce. The bun was also stale. Then the fries were soggy and cold. Won't be ordering from here again. read more

Milkshakes were incredible. Onions rings were crunchy but alittle oily. Fries were decent. Burger was fresh and juicy.

Nick waited on me at the counter. I had a Monger Burger, Monger Fries, New York Hot Dog, and a chocolate shake. It was quick hot and delicious. The service was super friendly and polite. I really notice these things and you know what it means? It means I'll be back! read more

Nice ambiance- much more elevated than I anticipated. They have beer and wine along with a wide selection for burgers, chicken, hot dogs, and veggie options. I got the veggie wrap, which is really a lettuce wrap filled with a burger or chicken. Looked 5 star when plated. Check out their daily specials before ordering though; I would have gotten a $5 veggie burger had I known it was the Monday special. Worth a visit! read more

Underwhelmed and disappointed. I went with my wife for take out tonight, and I do not think I'll be returning. We walked into an empty restaurant and were left questioning if they were even open as the employees looked disinterested in our presence. The server we were helped by at the register seemed to care less about helping us. He stared at the ceiling, did not make eye contact, spoke softly, did not respond when my wife ordered, and did not try to help us as we figured out the menu. But we ordered. We I went to pay, the server sneezed into his hand and then grabbed my card. Nice. His mask also was pulled under his nose, so obviously crosscontamination is not a concern of his. We got our food and went home. I had the bacon chili cheeseburger and it is was good, not great, but good. My wife got the blaz'n bacon blue burger. She only half and could not finish it. It was was cooked medium well on one side and rare on the other. That is pretty hard to do, but they did it. My wife hates rare meat. Also, the bacon was fatty and undercooked with a gummy quality to it. Our sides were alright. The fries were soft, perhaps from the ride home. The onion rings were still crispy and good. Overall the experience was not one we want to repeat, especially when you're paying a higher price for what's supposed to be better quality food. The service and quality were not worth the trip. I see from the reviews that other people have good experiences here, and I hope other people will continue to enjoy coming here, but I don't see myself coming back. read more

We stopped by Burger Monger this weekend in St. Pete to try the burger special. It was our first time there. It was quite a sizeable burger with 2 6oz patties topped with pepper jack cheese, bacon, peppers, and ranch all for $10. It was cooked to medium well because we forget to mention how we wanted it cooked. It was very juicy and flavorful. Worth seeking out and we will surely be back. This special is being offered due to Tampa Bay Burger Week and Creative Loafing which runs through Oct 30th. read more

The Burger Monger in St Petersburg is not the same as it was from the last time we ordered. Menu is different Food quality is not the same. (The Burgers used to be AWESOME, now they are slightly better then Burger King.) Not sure what happened. Maybe the owners changed The bright spot is the onion rings were great ....... To be specific, there is no longer an option for the Challuh bun or cheese options available. The buns that arrived we the same quality as my Local win Dixie supermarket. And, lastly, the Berger quality was not the same. I used to tell all my friends how much I enjoyed your food, and will continue to update them about my disappointment. Thank you for responding. read more

Found this place at the end of a plaza. Plenty of parking out back. You enter in the front and head towards the line to order. Menus are available and you order at a counter, are given a number and then have a seat. They bring the food to you when it is ready. Burgers are their thing. Many different kinds and toppings, some of the usual options and some more fun ones. We each ordered a burger and shared a small fry. They also have local beers, sodas and dessert that looked great. Prices were good. Burgers were messy but great. Nice place with a few monitors around advertising their items including one monitor in the bathroom. It was then I learned about the desserts. We will certainly return. read more

Burger Monger - Two burgers and fries. - Burgers Near Me - St Petersburg, Florida

I've been there plenty of times but this time the employee was so rude I I can't believe she was talking to me like that when I was asking her question .. even the manager tell her to calm down and he will take my order but at that point I was so mad and didn't wanna act like she was acting so I just left :I will never go back there again.. The employee was so I'll line that the manager should have send her home for the day. They did offer me a free meal, but I was so over it having someone talk to me like that.. If you don't have good employees, then everything else doesn't matter ... very disappointing, but there are plenty other places to go to eat and get treated fair. read more

Burgers were both overcooked. One of the burgers had the wrong cheese and was missing onions. The cheese sauce that came with the fries tasted like watered-down cheez wiz. The fries themselves were fine but undersalted. Was craving a good burger and was immensely disappointed. read more

Ordered a 1/2 pound of fries, and a half pound burger w lettuce, tomato, onions, mayo, ketchup and mustard. The kitchen missed the onion, but the staff brought me some. The burger was very good and the fries were tasty if a little limp. Unfortunately, The BurgerMonger burger is not different enough from from Five Guys burgers, Steak and Shake...or even Wendy's. Of course, the AKAUSHI beef patty was good...it is supposed to be something special...and it was good, but keep in mind that St Pete already has some really great burger joints like Engine No. 9 and The Avenue. We may now have an over-abundance of burger places in St Pete. The competition is fierce. All in all BurgerMonger's offerings are good, but not really standouts. PS: You can order beer and wine here. read more

I am giving 2 stars since I have had earlier experiences that we okay. Tonight I placed my order, logged in, prepaid for it, and left a tip. Hubby stopped by on his way home to pick it up. When he got there our order was nowhere to be found. They remembered making it but couldn't find it. Never made it, gave it to someone else, threw it away, who knows... He waited for our 3 burgers and share fries. Got home with 3 so-so burgers (not very good, overcooked, dried out hockey pucks) and a small fry. This used to be our Monday night go to for the $5 burger. The food was meh, the manager ineffective and inexperienced. I will no longer be ordering from this establishment. read more

Came to Burger Monger for the first time for lunch and really enjoyed it! I'm not the biggest burger fan but figured at least they would have a standard salad I could order and I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the Chophouse salad and it was delicious! I loved the balsamic tomatoes on it. Looking forward to going back and asking for extra tomatoes. The salad was loaded with lettuce, cabbage, shredded carrots, cucumbers, red onions, Kalimantan olives, feta, and a piece of crispy crostini/ crouton. Overall I really enjoyed this salad and can't wait to get it again! My colleague ordered the Crispy chicken sandwich with buffalo sauce. The sandwich was massive and came with fries. She really liked it. Definitely a place worth trying! read more

We went there last Saturday and my wife ordered a burger while I was selecting a beer. The video menu listed an upgrade from a 6 ounce burger ($6.99), to an 8 ounce burger for an additional $1.79. The counter staff didn't seem to understand and a manager walked over and said "this is wrong", then he took out an iPad and erased the upgrade from the video menu. It was insulting and I have to wonder what kind of business operates this way other than Guido's Take It Or Leave It Mob Hut. We left and went to another burger place on Central. It wasn't like $1.79 was an absurdly low price for 2 extra ounces of burger. Today, I looked online at the Burger Monger menu and they list an 8 ounce burger for $8.99. That's $2 more than their 6 ounce single burger. So - $1.79 was a horrible mistake, but $2 is okay. Someone in upper management needs to have a meeting with the St. Pete store. We won't be back. read more
