Kayla was our excellent waitstaff who was cheerful and very pleasant! Food, drinks, dessert and outside seating were wonderful! Kayla made suggestions and was very patient with my friend who asked questions about the gluten-free menu. Definitely going back!! read more

This is great place. they have a great, diversified food menus of salads, burgers, bowls and main dishes and a great craft beer selection. I came during the lobster roll special season, and the roll had a good amount of meat in the roll. My only complaint, and it is a small one, is that the picture they advertise is what you would be served off the docks in main. What my wife and I had could more accurately be described as a lobster salad on a roll. No chunks like you see in the as. More chopped lobster with added ingredients. Not that it was not tasty. Just wanted to mention this as the only thing that distracted from an otherwise enjoyable time. read more

Burtons Grill & Bar - The lobster roll - New American Near Me - Burlington, Massachusetts

First time visiting this place. Went on Sunday afternoon. The dinning room was mostly empty, but was told it was going to get busy, so I had to eat at the bar. The bartender & waitress was very friendly, but also overloaded, as it looked like she was handling all the tables in the bar, in addition to bar tending. It took a long time to place our order, and few/little check ups after that. Food was ok. I ordered the brunch burger. I couldn't tell if there was a fried egg on top (as described). The potato was a hash-brown (like you'd get at McDs), wasn't what I was expecting, I took it off the burger and enjoyed as a side. I will probably dine elsewhere based on the experience. Not that it was bad, just mediocre. read more

Met for dinner with friends. Our server was super friendly and attentive and we were seated in a large booth in front of the kitchen. We shared an appetizer of risotto balls (aka arancini) Two of us ordered the scallop and corn risotto special. I got six scallops while my Fri only got five. While the dish was delicious, the risotto was luke warm and the scallops could have used a bit more char on them (we did not inform the server. It's really someone else's job to get this right the first time). Other friends had the Thai steak salad and the General Tsau's bowl. For dessert, I enjoyed a delicious carajillio cocktail. read more

I came here in search of my first lobster roll. Waiter was on point by telling me right now is a bit out of season and if I want my first lobster roll to be a memorable experience, get it seaside. Pretty honest opinion. He recommended the clam chowder though and it was spot on. Probably in the top 5 clam chowders of my life. On to the Prime rib. It came out rare, just how I wanted it. Twice baked potato was smoking hot and a side of Au Jus and horseradish sauce. Here is the only negative comment. The horse radish sauce was more mayo than horseradish. Easily solved though, as my waiter brought me a side of real horseradish that cleared my sinuses, promoted hair growth and turned my eyes blue. Just the way I wanted it. I want horseradish that will cure cancer and they had it. I will be breathing clearly for a week! Great place, good service, and a decor that is classy without being over the top. I'll be back for sure. read more

Here's a strong but credible review that sticks to the facts and is more likely to be taken seriously by readers: We had an incredibly disappointing experience at Burton's in Burlington and will not be returning. We ordered what should have been one of the simplest items on the menu--a steak cooked medium rare. Instead, it arrived well done. Our waitress was very pleasant, apologized, and immediately offered to have another steak prepared. Unfortunately, the replacement was even worse. This time the steak came out completely rare, to the point that it was not fit for safe consumption. At that point we asked to speak with the manager. The entire ordeal took well over 30 minutes, leaving one of us waiting while the other had already finished eating. What should have been an enjoyable dinner turned into a frustrating and disappointing experience. By the time the replacement arrived, the evening was completely ruined. Mistakes can happen, but getting a steak wrong twice--first severely overcooked and then severely undercooked--is unacceptable for a restaurant that prides itself on quality. While our waitress did everything she could to help, the kitchen failed us twice, and the manager was unable to salvage the experience. We left extremely disappointed. We will not be returning to Burton's and cannot recommend it based on our experience. read more

Delicious food with outstanding, innovative salads. So good. Nice, friendly, casual atmosphere. We had an outstanding server, Sean, who was attentive and helpful. A nice dining experience read more

Burtons is so reliable. I love the pomegranate martini, it's a perfect amount of sweetness. Also the burgers are so good every time, the patty is thick, there's plenty of toppings, and the fries are addicting as well. I also love the cauliflower appetizer and firecracker shrimp appetizer. read more

The reservation process at Burton's Grill & Bar in Burlington was easy and straightforward enabling our party of 4 to secure a table at 6PM. We were promptly greeted and brought to a table, and when I requested a more comfortable and spacious booth that was empty, that was accommodated. Thank you. The restaurant was 80% capacity and the bar area a little less so on a Sunday evening. We ordered two different burgers; the Maxx Burger and the Classic Cheeseburger. Both were cooked to a perfect medium rare with one coming with crispy fries and the other a side salad, per request. I enjoyed the fried onion crisps on the Maxx burger instead of slices of red onion. Two salads were also ordered; the tai steak and the southwest chicken. Both were served in very large bowls with plenty of fresh lettuce and other produce offerings. We also ordered the key lime pie for dessert with whip cream which was equally delicious. Our waitress was pleasant and eagerly attended to our drink refill orders. All in all a very good experience in a casual, comfortable atmosphere. read more

Solid spot with good vibes and great service. Stopped by Burton's Bar & Grill in Burlington and had a really nice experience overall. The food was definitely solid - everything we ordered came out fresh and well-prepared. Prices were fair for the quality, which is always a plus. What really stood out, though, was the service. Staff was super friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The place has a warm, cozy vibe that made it easy to relax and enjoy the meal. Only minor downside: the drinks could've been a bit stronger - not a dealbreaker, but something to note if you're coming for cocktails. All in all, it was a different kind of experience (in a good way), and I'll definitely be back to try more dishes and maybe give the drink menu another go. Worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

Swanky elegance in Burlington! Despite being known for their steaks and other meatier options, I love Burton's for their delish veggie burger! Sweet potato fries are scrumptious. My friends and family rave about the steaks, burgers, and fish and chips. Service is always spot on and friendly. Desserts could be a bit better. Lovely alcoholic beverages. read more

Easy to reserve, very good service, clean, food fresh and well made. Prices pretty reasonable. Distinctive 'chain' feel to the decor and menu, while good, was not overly inspired. If you are looking for a decent meal after shopping or while out, this is a good place. For a special night out, I'd go somewhere else. read more

I had a fantastic late dinner at Burtons Grill & Bar after a long flight and many of the other restaurants in the area were closed. Beautiful bar area and good looking restaurant inside. I got the ribeye steak which was extremely good, flavorful, and correctly cooked along with a Cesar salad which was also good. Chris my waiter was prompt, efficient, and made my meal here a great experience. I plan to come back again before my flight home. read more

Saturday night on Mother's Day weekend is a challenging time to get a dinner reservation, but our party of four were willing to dine early and we scored a reservation at Burton's. Though we haven't eaten at this Burton's location before, we have enjoyed meals at other Burton's. It was quiet when we arrived, and a full house when we departed. Our waitress was Jenna, and the service was excellent throughout the meal. We ordered: * Bread Service $4.50 * Pasta Piccata with Chicken $25.00 * Mediterranean Chicken Risotto $27.50 * Short Rib Grilled Cheese with Parmesan Truffle Fries $22.95 * Ahi Tuna Bowl $25.00 The Bread Service was very good, a warm loaf of bread, easily divided into four sections with a pesto spread, herbed garlic butter, and olive tapenade. We were going to order a bread refill, but our dinners were served quickly, and they were Burton's typically large portions. The pasta was declared to be very tasty, but the chicken piccata was bland. The risotto was excellent and almost completely consumed. The grilled cheese sandwich was very tasty, so large the diner took home half of the sandwich. The fries were tasty but limp. My selection, the Ahi Tuna Bowl, was very good, tasty tuna with a spicy mayo dressing. Overall, a good dining experience and a solid four-star visit, the same rating offered by my fellow Yelpers. SYOY! read more

Haven't dined here in years. We made a weekend brunch reservation after yoga because the location was convenient. Can't believe we forgot about this place- such a great experience. The hostess was friendly- it wasn't busy so she let us select our table- outside, lounge, bar or dining room. We chose the lounge because it was empty. Server quickly arrived with a friendly greeting to take our drink order. Everything sounded great. I had the eggs Benedict and my friend had calamari- and of course we ordered bread service because- it's bread. Yum! Impressed by the bread service- loved the tapenade. We both enjoyed our meals- they food came out quickly and the server checked back on us several times. They asked if we needed a gluten free menu- we didn't but a great option for those who are GF. We did eye the very reasonably priced lobster roll (with cold mayo or warm butter) but we'll try that next time. We'll definitely be back. read more

The worst inedible food of my life. How can this restaurant be so bad. $100.00 for the worst meal. I suggest they close and spare diners the misery. How do they score 4.4 on line when the food is so disgusting. $44.00 for a Pinot Grigio that is $5 at Costco. A 2023 Albariño sent back that should have been disposed of over a year ago. McDonald's would have been an upgrade. Please close and spare the diners. read more

We celebrated our anniversary with dinner at Burtons. There were a couple of disappointments, the biggest one being that they were out of the dish I really wanted to try, but overall it was a good experience. The food that we did order was good, the staff were very friendly, and the ambiance was pretty classy and nice. It would be a good option for a date night or small group gathering, but it's also pretty family friendly. read more

Firstly, the service was excellent and the restaurant was clean. The lemon soup had no lemon taste. The mac and cheese was dry & tasteless on the top and watery on the bottom. Should be creamy We passed on the cauliflower app that was $15.50 i dont know what could possibly be in a vegetable app that could cost so much I'd give the General Tso bowl a 7. The chicken was a little dry. We were disappointed to find out we could have eaten outside but the tables werent set so we didnt ask but the host sat someone out there read more

Two out of five for this place. The food was not great. Sub par in fact. Way overpriced and according to my date the women's bathroom was gross. This place used to have a touch of class and initiation but that's gone. It's just another spot slinging overpriced middle of the road food. read more

I found Burton's on Yelp and it was a great discovery. There is a newness and freshness to the Grill - I don't know how long it has been open. The hostess was so welcoming and Taylor, our service person was friendly, gave helpful advice, was gracious and the food was excellent. It was a wonderful experience and I recommend it highly ; I will definitely return. And the price is right !!!!! read more

We Ordered a draft cloud Candy beer , a soda Bread service, General Tso bowl with chicken Corn chowder soup Black and blue burger special First ; the bread is excellent with nice soft butter Hot 4 pieces ...

Burger special was excellent with perfect cook, blue cheese and all a great burger with spinach opted for also excellent. The corn soup was very good as well. The General Tso with chicken looked good. Food was excellent, service excellent... all good here ... 86.11 was a bit pricey but But 43.00 / person not too bad with the one 8.50 beverage .

I would have rated this lower, except the waitress was very good! The food was awful. I ordered the hot buttered lobster roll ( my mistake)! Couldn't eat it, dry and overcooked; and though the fries were okay, the Cole Slaw was equally dissatisfying (had an odd taste). The kicker was, when the bill came, the preprogrammed tip amounts were: 20%, 22%, 25%! Whatever happened to 18, 20, 22%? read more

This is my go to place to meet up with friends. The food is always fresh and delcious. I was disappointed with my last visit, though. I ordered a drink with the house liquor and the server had it made with a more expensive brand. Padding the check? It is a small thing but honestly it really just annoyed me. Maybe it is because I was a server years ago and a co-worker automatically did this to get a better tip. read more

The food is amazing! The service was also amazing. The lighting and music captured the mood perfectly. If I could give it 10 stars I would. I got the Mediterranean chicken risotto and a couple mai tais and they were both amazing! I'll definitely be coming back in the near future. read more

Great kids menu. Allergy sensitive tonthe extreme. Thinking about having a holiday party here.

Great food and the service is top notch. We came here on a packed Saturday night, I mean it was mobbed. We had no reservation and the host seated us within 10-15 minutes, we were expecting to wait for over an hour. Great place to go for a lively atmosphere and friendly staff. read more

The lobster roll special made with house aioli was disappointing: too heavily dressed and overly chilled to the point of being tasteless. The accompanying coleslaw suffered from similar treatment: over-worked, too many ingredients, too refrigerated. Service however was friendly and attentive. Ambiance neutral. read more

My friends and I had a Smorgasburg of dishes which included but was not limited to the bread service, calamari, firecracker shrimp, steak and frites, the cheesesteak rolls and lobster/crab pasta.

Burton continues to impress us. The servers were friendly and helpful. We especially liked the seasonal dishes, eg lobster roll, vegetable grill.

Have been to Burton's several times and have been pleased with the service, price and food.

Sat at the bar - it was a Friday afternoon so it was empty and plenty of seats. The bartender was very friendly and immediately assisted me. I had one of their cocktails which was fair. Then they had Downeast Cider available for a second drink. I had the cauliflower app for my meal and it was DELICIOUS. The building itself is very nice and will definitely come back to visit even if the prices are a little steeper than I'd like. read more

Expect your reservation not to be honored and you will wait like everyone else that just comes in.

Very good food and service was excellent as usual. The waiter was very attentive and friendly. The wait time was short considering it was a weekend night. I would highly recommend this restaurant. read more
