    Fish and chips
    Ryan H.

    I stopped as Essex Burger while waiting for a delayed flight. The seating was clean and welcoming.. The Menu and ordering system is all based on scanning a QR and choosing from your phone! The portions were great and my fish was fresh, crispy and good for $22. The draft beer choices were minimal ( draft beer is the ONLY choice for Fish and Chips IMHO) sadly the chips were old and not crispy... I'll stop again when flying- but next time ask for fresh fries...

    Essex Burger and Fries!

    Service was great. Food was dynamite. Haddock fish and chips, tartar sauce, all the way around. Dynamite. Essex burger... Epic. Especially for an airport restaurant at $19.

    Fantastic Breakfast

    Essex burger doesn't disappoint. Hungry? Do the combo, comes with tater tots. If you have time, eat at the diner. Very cute diner in Terminal C at LGA. Service was excellent. Very affordable. I typically spend $40 at other restaurants for a meal while traveling. This was less than $20. I was pleasantly surprised. 5 stars for price and quality.

    Essex Wings
    Jeffrey E.

    These wings were really good from the quality of the ingredients to the way it was cooked. The wings were tender and juicy on the inside while having that nice crisp exterior. The pairing of their seasonings, honey, and pickle were a nice touch as well. Service from both asian wait staff was prompt and good as well. A nice place to have some wings and enjoy the game while waiting for my delayed flight.

    Came here to order a burger and fries at the register. Then found a seat. Was sitting for a few minutes when a waitress came up and told us we must buy something. Told her we bought food. She said if you buy at register that's TO GO only. WTH? I spend money here, I'm going to sit down. Smh. The lady was adamant that we buy something. She was pushy and rude. I've never heard of a place where you can't sit at tables without buying at the table. Super odd and inconvenient. My chicken sandwich was good. Buns were a bit dry but all else was good. Fries were good. My food was waiting up front but no one called my name. So my food was sitting for a minute before I got my food.

    BBQ burger and fries, quite good.

    Stopped by for a burger to go while waiting for my flight. Ordering on the kiosk was easy and my food was ready in about 10-15 minutes. Pretty reasonable prices for airport food at $20 for a double burger and fries. The burger was quite good and the fries were so hot I couldn't hold them. All around great experience.

    Very good fish and chips at Terminal C at LaGuardia Airport in New York. It's good to get some Decent (but expensive) food while traveling

    Today w here to eat out of convenience because we were right next to it at gate 76 and because my daughter saw and smelled wings and she was in the mood. We shared wings, a cheese burger, hot dog and fries. We shared because she also wanted fries and it didn't come with wings. There's no actual server to take our order, so whatever is on the QR menu is what you get and there was no option to add on fries by itself. The wings were a little sweet with a little kick and it came with a few spicy pickle slices that I enjoyed. The cheeseburger was only one option.. double patty, there was no option to purchase a single patty. It too was a little sweet but not overbearing, everything was delicious. Even my blood orange margarita. The only problem was the service. The lady who brought out food had bad body language. She looked miserable to help us, she wanted to run back to gossip with the bartender instead. She served us warm water with no ice and didn't look happy when we asked for more ketchup. It sucks we tipped good prior to receiving the service, because we tipped generously and it was not deserved. If I'm ever by this gate again, I'll take my stuff to go instead or just try out another spot that might have better service.

    "My Way" hot dogs

    Food was delish! I came w/ my sister & her 2 daughters. We all share to taste different food. I ordered the BBQ burger (double meat patty,bbq sauce, sharp cheddar,crispy onions,pickles) minus the crispy onions. My younger niece ordered Essex wings(organic wings,Aleppo pepper,Tabasco,hot honey)sauce on the side.My sister also ordered Essex wings w/ the sauce. 2 of her wings hardly had meat. She didn't want me to say anything to the waitress but I wanted to so bad.My older niece ordered "My Way" hot dogs(all beef hot dogs w/ whatever toppings you want). Both burger & hot dogs came w/ French fries.You have to order & pay w/ a QR code. Wings were crispy & flavorful. Burger was juicy & tasty. Buns were soft & tasted fresh. Hot dogs were large & mouthwatering. Fries were good but was a really small portion. Service was terrible & it was a hassle just to get a refill on our drinks. Waitress gave me warm water which was unacceptable. I asked for a cup of ice & she looked @ me like I had a 3rd eye. I looked @ receipt & realized a 18% tip was automatically inputted. That's why the waitress didn't care. She didn't have to work for her tip. I always tip generously but she didn't deserve it. Place was busy! It's in Laguardia airport. It was an open area. Ambiance was kind of chaotic. I would have gave a 4 star b/c of the food but the service made me take away a star.

    Carlos you make the best drinks. Thank you. You are awesome. The burgers are amazing. The hostess and servers are super nice ! It's a nice place to be great ambiance to hang when waiting for flight.

    Really good for airport dining! With the renovations to LaGuardia Airport, these eateries are at their best. Chuko Ramen and Essex Burger now share expanded seating. This was great as we could order from either and still eat together. The menu is scannable on the table. You order online and then a waiter quickly delivers your food. We ordered soy ramen with roasted pork and soy marinated egg and a spicy tuna roll for $39.27 including tip and an essex burger (double patty with fries) for $24.08 including tip. Under normal circumstances, this is totally overpriced but it is solid airport food with no wait. Would eat here again.

    Crispy honey wings
    Denise B.

    Yeah, it's airport food. But this one tops my list of while-you-wait eateries. I ate a couple before I snapped the pic, but these crispy, honey wings were yummy with a squeeze of freshly cut lemon over top and dipped in ranch dressing. Compliments to the chef!

I didn't recall ordering a double but that's what I got. lol This burger was really delicious but I could barely eat half of it. I would definitely order this burger again but maybe just a single burger next time. The sweet potato fries were such a treat! Such a delicious and satisfying meal!! They also have quite a few unique beverage options; non-alcoholic and alcoholic!! This is definitely not just a Coke and Pepsi kinda place! I tried their Velvet Llama Espresso Martini in a can, and it was really fantastic! Looking forward to a return visit to have some of their delicious wings, onion rings, many appetizers, sea burgers, chicken burgers, veggie burgers, breakfast sandwiches....omg the list goes on and on! Their backyard dining area is great for the warmer weather. Great music. Great service & hospitality. Great vibes all around!! Btw, I must mention their pricing. At first glance, you'd think their $20 burgers is wayyyyy too expensive. BUT, when you see the massive burger you're getting, you realize that it's a Quality burger, made with Quality ingredients... and well worth the price! Splurge and treat yourself! You're worth it! ;-)

Most of them seemed to be food-related or Korean-related.

They definitely piled the veggies on, which I appreciated. However, the beef patty was not great texturally. There seemed to be an issue with consistency, three of us ordered the same burger cooked medium rare but our burgers were cooked with different levels of doneness. One was perfectly medium rare, one was very rare, and mine was in between with some parts that were rare. The rare parts felt (and looked) too much like raw ground beef, tasted mushy. It wasn't a big deal though because it was still edible. If I come back here, I would probably just order medium to be on the safe side. What actually ruined the patty for me was the chewy, rubbery gristle. The other burgers didn't have as much but mine had gristle in nearly every bite. Thankfully, the brioche bun and veggies kind of made up for the meat. The onion rings were really fried and super crunchy; they almost looked burnt. It was a little too fried for me but I still enjoyed it. The spicy barbecue sauce was really good and had a tiny kick. I preferred the spicy barbecue sauce to the garlic aioli. The aioli was too thick so I liked combining the two sauces. The fries were basic chain restaurant fries, crispy and fluffy. I would be happy with ordering either fries or onion rings again. However, I think the onions rings made the burger more enjoyable. Pretty big place with lots of seating. Quick and friendly service.

The space inside is pretty simple and minimalistic -- clean, modern, nothing overly fancy. It feels like the kind of place you pop into when you're craving a good burger without making a whole production out of dinner. They focus on smash burgers, so you get those crispy edges with a juicy center, which is always a win. Everything is 100% halal, which I appreciate, and the menu has a few fun options like the Jalapeño Thrill, Garlic Mushroom smash, and even a Morning Flare burger with a fried egg and beef bacon. There are chicken and veggie options too if that's more your speed. I kept it simple and ordered a burger with fries, and it really hit the spot. Nothing overcomplicated -- just a well-made burger, good flavor, and fresh ingredients. The kind of meal that feels satisfying without being too heavy. Overall, it's a great casual stop in Bayside if you're near the train or just looking for a quick halal burger. Perfect for a laid-back weekday meal.

Actually checking out the inside it turns out it is a smashburger place that is reminiscent of the burgeoning 7th Street chain that is popping up everywhere. What I appreciate about this place is the menu has more options than 7th Street. Listening to my buddy Billy C who capitalized GARLIC MUSHROOM burger in his review made me intrigued, He was totally on the mark with this - I loved the pile of garlicky mushroom sitting on this burger. We paired this with the loaded fries which made a good shareable meal since we were not too hungry. Like 7th Street, Mexican coke is available if that is your thing. Other burger options include kimchi, jalapenos and fried egg in various configurations. Again like 7th Street, decor is unremarkable, but at least they have seating unlike most of the stand up tables in most 7th Streets Overall, this is a solid Bell Blvd option that should continue to thrive despite the dwindling bar/drinking culture that used to dominate this area.

I literally had to push myself to eat this mess of a burger and for the rest of the day I felt like pure grease and oil was literally coming out of my pores. Never again will I order a burger from here, it was just plain nasty.
