Gabby's Burgers is hands down the best burger spot around! The Gabby and Seamus burgers were cooked to absolute perfection -- juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every bite was incredible. The fries were perfectly cooked, and the chunky sweet potato fries? Easily the best I have ever had. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with flavor. We also tried the strawberry shake and were completely speechless -- thick, creamy, and the perfect sweet finish to an amazing meal. This place is truly a hidden gem. It has such a welcoming, down-home feel, and you can tell they genuinely care about their customers and want everyone to have the best experience possible. You feel valued from the moment you walk in. We will absolutely be back! read more

Burgers were excellent. I got the Sheamus (single patty) and it was plenty of food. They could upgrade their buns IMO. Their sauce bar was a nice treat. Sweet potato fries were unlike any I've ever had but exceptional! read more

I had high hopes for Gabby's, but unfortunately, my lunch did not live up to the hype. First off, my order was incorrect. I should have checked the bag before I left so I could have caught it. Oh well. The burger was just okay. It was not well-seasoned, so it was pretty bland. I did like the bun and it did hold up, so that was a plus. My husband got the burger of the month which had chili, onions and cheese on it. He said it was only "eh" and would not put the burger in his Top Ten. Then fries were soooo disappointing. They were so greasy, the paper bag they were in almost fell apart from the grease eating away the bag. The fries were super limp, not a hint of crunch. A baked potato has more texture than these fries. Two burgers that came with sides for over $40? NOT WORTH IT. read more

Gabby's Burgers - Super greasy, soggy fries. - Burgers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Gabby's Burgers and Fries is an amazing spot for a greasy cheeseburger and French fries in the Nashville, Tennessee. I walked in a bit after eleven o'clock on a Saturday morning and the place already had a considerable line. I took my place in line and was greeted by a very friendly gentleman. I ordered the Gabby Burger, which was a double cheeseburger (hey,go big or go home) and I would call it their signature burger. For my choice of cheese(s), I went with cheddar and pepperjack cheese. I grabbed a table and my order was brought to my table in a pretty quick amount of time (especially considering how packed it was). I went to the sauce bar and tried multiple sauces. I probably liked their chipotle ketchup the best and thought their regular ranch was a bit weak, but the other sauces were good, including their Dr. Doom ranch sauce. The burger and fries were both pretty spectacular. Definitely a restaurant to check out in Nashville if you are craving a burger. The restaurant is pretty small and tight, but it has a cool vibe and ambiance. This is one of those places that kind of screams of another time and a very different part of an old Nashville, Tennessee before it grabbed a more neon driven and touristy vibe. I would definitely recommend a visit here and ultimately will give it five stars overall. read more

Why I have I been sleeping on this spot? I kept thinking I need to go and now wish I had years ago! What a gem! I got lucky with a spot right in their lot, but there is free street parking down Humphrey's. This is a cute small stand alone business that has indoor and outdoor seating, it's cozy and has a nostalgic small town family owned burger joint feel. First of all, the culture here is amazing - "welcome, welcome" from almost the entire team when you enter - what a warm greeting. The people and quality over profit mindset I read about in Doug's story on their menu makes me want to return 1000x - thankfully, I live and work within 5 mins of here. I noticed and appreciated first responders, military, and law enforcement get 20% off. The quality - GRASS FED beef - yes, I am here for the benefits & taste - OMG, so rich, tender, melt in your mouth - it was truly one of the best burgers of my life! As this was first time here I went with their top choice Seamus (SHAY mus) with everything and they let me mix the fries to try both the basic french and the sweet Initially, I thought the fries were a bit too soggy/greasy for my liking, but it was such a killer flavor that it wasn't an issue - maybe also bc I had gotten it to go v. dining in maybe made them hold moisture. Also, idk what oil they cook the fries in, but it tasted clean and like a healthier quality than other restaurants I have been in. I did get a few of their housemade specialty sauces from their self-service and loved all of them - I forgot the names but the secret sauce, the ranch one, and spicy ketchup which the ketchup being my favorite of all 3. And, on my way out "see ya tomorrow," from one employee and "take care, Liz," from another and honestly their enthusiasm and kindness made my day and makes me want to come every lunch break for a mini encouragement session with my meal, lol. This team hit it out of the park and was consistently warm to everyone coming and going, the food was hands down all that you'd want and more! I might just see them tomorrow! read more

I really had high hopes for Gabby's after hearing so much hype. The staff was amazing and very friendly but the food was flavorless and just not good at all. Not sure what type of meat is being used but it was very dry. The bun tasted off also. Very disappointing. Both the sweet potato and the normal fries were burned beyond anything edible along with no salt and flavor. The water at least taste like it was filtered, maybe the only part of my meal I enjoyed. read more

I've been burger hunting in Nashville trying to find the best burger. This place had a lot of hype and I had high expectations. The staff and service were great. The place was small, but fun. The food however, was disappointing. I had a double cheeseburger. The meat had no flavor and no texture. It tasted like they just took ground beef and set it on the grill and removed it as soon as it hit temperature. There was no seasoning in the meat, no sear on the outside of the patties. They were just lifeless. The fries were also very bland. Soggy, not crisp, no seasoning on them. The food looks good in the pictures and looks good when it arrives on your table, but it's surprisingly bland. read more

The hype is real. This was recommended by my hubby who's lived in Nashville for 14 years. It is one of the best burger place in town. It's little tucked away so it could go unnoticed but this place is no secret anymore. Tried their Bacon Swiss burger and it was amazing. Their fries, so so good. Service is quick. Plenty of sauces to try. They have plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Go try some! read more

Gabby's Burgers - Bacon and Swiss burger - Burgers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

6/28/24 - 12:10 Whenever I take a trip, I do my best to find some high quality locally/family owned restaurants. Gabby's Burgers certainly fits that mold and quickly got on my radar. I liked what I saw in terms of description and reviews so we made it a priority to visit for lunch on the way to Gibson and the Broadway area. The place was packed when we arrived around noon... obviously very popular for lunch, and I got the impression that most of customers were locals rather than tourists like we were. The guy at the counter was very friendly, asked if we'd been there before and shared a few details with us. We put our order in - BBQ Burger w/ fries, Bacon & Swiss burger w/ pasta salad and a cup of chili. Once we got our order, the challenge was to find a place to sit. Nearly all seats were taken, but one of the waiters helped us out a bit... putting two stools together at the counter behind the door into a side room. Certainly not the best view in the house, but it was fine... we were happy to figure something out - and, since that location was also used for paper towel storage, we were well covered if any spills happened. I have to say, the burgers were some of the best I've had anywhere. The meat was high quality, grass fed beef, buns very fresh and "just right" and veggies on point as well. My burger was done just the way I liked it (lil pink) as was my friend's (she ordered hers well done). The chili and pasta salad was great too... I was asked if I wanted cheese and onions on the chili, I said "yes" and they were good additions. The onions were fresh and strong, not for the wimpy! Overall, great meal... I've already recommended it to others. read more

A little overbooked for my liking but I did it how the recommended (medium well). It's kind of a flavorless burger. Mushroom Swiss is what I went with. Fries, small diner vibe, and sauce selection were 10/10. read more

This restaurant exceeds expectations. The signature burger is a must have and the sweet potato fries are the best I have ever had. The restaurant staff are extremely friendly and kind. The restaurant itself is a perfect place and fits a small restaurant ambience. 10/10 would eat here again. read more

I've wanted to try Gabby's for a while and finally had the chance to! The parking can definitely be tricky, but luckily we found street parking! The workers inside are super nice, and there were plenty of spots to sit even during lunch hour! I decided to get the Seamus burger with sweet potato fries. The burger was perfectly cooked and was super tasty, although I would've loved some more cheese! The sweet potato fries were also great and unique, as they weren't like your typical fries! My favorite part was the homemade sauces they have to pair with your burgers and fries. The secret sauce is delicious and so is the homemade ranch!! We had a great meal, and I'm looking forward to going back. read more

When you walk up, it gives a good burger joint from the outside . Upon walking in, there was a warm welcome from the cashier. Joyful and fun! We took our time to get to know the menu but ultimately went pretty classic with the Seamus and BBQ burger. The winner of it all = the sweet potato fries! Another win = the sauce bar!! read more

Holy cow - no pun intended. I will say that there are a few things that really make places stand out. The staff greeted me as soon as I walked in and were prompt taking the order. Not only were multiple staff members super friendly, but they actually acted like they wanted to take your order and wanted to get your food to you, which is unlike a lot of places in Nashville. The food was out super fast and as soon as I got in my car, I immediately bit into the french fries and so yummy and so fresh and the burger was so juicy, and yet not sloppy and greasy - and it was cooked to perfection right at medium rare to medium and juicy ... I am bringing the other burger home to my husband and I'm sure that he is going to be just as thrilled with the experience as I was! I like the simple packaging as well. Well, done - 10 out of 10! read more

My wife took me to Gabby's for my birthday around noon. It was quiet at first but started to fill up closer to 1:00 p.m. Parking is limited, and there's quite a bit of construction in the Wedgewood-Houston area, so plan accordingly. I ordered a double cheeseburger with fries and a drink. Like most places these days, the price for two meals was a bit on the higher side, but not unreasonable. I like to keep my burger simple -- cheese, ketchup, mustard, and mayo -- and I was very pleased with how it turned out. The patties were hand-shaped rather than the typical uniform rounds, giving them that homemade touch. Some reviews mentioned the burgers lacked seasoning, but mine was perfectly seasoned and flavorful. Gabby's has quickly become one of my favorite spots, especially since other burger places, like The Pharmacy, have gone downhill recently. Definitely worth checking out to see what you think for yourself. read more

Gabby's Burgers - Double cheeseburger, mustard, mayo, ketchup and fries. - Burgers Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Always a delicious lunch! Great burgers, fries, and shakes! Their grass-fed beef burgers are delicious and always cooked perfectly. I love that you can add basically any toppings to any burger. My wife really enjoys their veggie burger, but I've never tried it. The restaurant is decorated in a fun way with lots of cool stuff on the walls. More often than not, your order will be taken by Jack and your food will be delivered by Tessa. Both are super nice, thoughtful, and extremely helpful. Don't be afraid to ask them any question you may have. Gabby's French fries and sweet potato fries are hand cut and delicious. The sweet potato fries have the skin on them, which gets crisp, and pairs well with the nice caramelization on the sweet potato fries. I have 2 fry related tips: First, you can order your fries half potato and half sweet potato. It's great because you get the best of both worlds. Second, if you're like me, you're always wondering what the best dipping sauce is for sweet potato fries. Well, let me tell you, Gabby's sweet (honey) mustard sauce goes perfectly with their sweet potato fries. You should give it a shot, even if you don't like mustard. The sauce has a nice sweetness that really complements the sweet potato fries. It's the only yellow sauce on their awesome sauce bar. And, before you order, don't forget to ask for the Secret Menu... read more

Dang, that was a legit burger!! Big, juicy, fresh toppings with delicious specials sauces available. The Bruce Mathew's Special Sauce was excellent. It was like a Big Mac dressing except much better and fresher. I got the Gabby with Sweet Potato Fries. So good and huge. I couldn't finish it. Parking seemed limited, but I got a space in the lot without issue and the 2 cars behind me did too. It is definitely a hole in the wall burger place with excellent quality and service. It is small too, but it all adds to the culinary experience. I highly recommend. read more

Simply the best ! Love the happy, friendly workers who greet you when you walk in- makes you feel like they're glad you are supporting their business. How rare these days. The funny signs and local sports teams paraphernalia hung all over the walls and ceiling give you something fun to look at while you wait for your delicious burger and fries to arrive. As good as the food is ( my fave is the Seamus burger) the fruit tea is out of this world! I usually drown myself in it as there are free refills. You can't make it this good at home. Excellent local place but very sure to check their hours before heading there! Highly recommend. read more

Choo Chooo all aboard! This is the one way train to flavortown. The hype is real people. I knew when the hours were selective I would be in for a treat. The Gabby Burger is BROLIC to bring your big boy or big girl pants. The patties are mouth watering and the beef just melts in your mouth. Amazing. Can't go wrong with some American cheese either. The Fries, hands down the best fries I've had from any eatery. Im willing to throw hands over that. Perfect balance of crunchy and soft. Dab some malt vinegar on them, then dip in your favorite sauce. Speaking of sauce, the sauces are all house made daily! I'd come here just to eat the dipping sauce. Get the honey mustard, you're welcome. read more

first trip to Nashville, looking for a good local burger. Gabbys burgers taste so good, but the size of the meal was very underwhelming compared to other reviews. So not worth $15 for the portion alone, but very tasty! read more

This place has the BEST customer service I've experienced in Nashville. We went for the first time the week before Christmas and immediately a staff member explained that you order at the counter and then seat yourself (most places just stare at you and expect you to figure out how they operate on your own). The staff were all so friendly, helpful, & happy to answer our questions. He could tell we were splitting a burger and offered to cut it in half for us. When we couldn't decide if we wanted sweet potato or regular fries, he offered to give us half and half! The food was delicious and we had a lot of fun trying all of the dipping sauces - the spicy ketchup and honey mustard were our favorites! Once we finished our fries, a staff member noticed and offered to bring us more at no extra charge - and they did not skimp! Soft drinks were complimentary which is a fun perk. They have their own parking lot which is rare and made it so easy. It's a small restaurant and nothing fancy but I can't wait to go back here when I have a day off work! read more

I just want to start off by saying the food is great but the experience of the staff and the overall feel of this little buger joint makes it special. We were greeted as soon as we walked through the door and were acknowledged when we left. This place is small so it's a little tight but that's part of the experience. The staff were all friendly and were happy to be there and that's rare these days. They serve Grass Fed Burgers and delicious shakes. The fries are not crispy but the sweet potato fries are the best fries I've ever eaten. We got there about 11:15 on a Saturday and it was already about half way full and by the time we left it was almost full. They are only open until 2:30 and closed on Sunday. They have a special burger of the month every month, which I got and they had a special milkshake of the month, which my wife got. They have 3 shakes all the time. Strawberry, Vanilla and Chocolate. They also have 2 Chicken sandwiches, Hot dogs, Grilled Cheese and Vegan burger. They offer hand squeezed Lemonade, Fruit Tea and a Coke Station. It's only about 10 minutes from Downtown Nashville. If you're around the city and want a Juicy Burger and a Milkshake then you need to try this place. You may have to wait a minute to get in but it will be worth the wait. I will end by saying that the food came out quickly. read more

Since my daughter is named Gabby, and loves a good burger (and because her husband chose here for his birthday lunch) we had to try this one of kind burger joint. It did not disappoint! We were welcomed genuinely by the staff who were all having a good time behind the counter. The place was small, maybe even tight, but in the cozy and quirky kind of really good way. We quickly perused the menu, built our own burgers, and placed our order before sitting down. By the time we grabbed our drinks and sauces, one of the baskets was already on the table! Soon we all had our food and we munched! Fries and sweet potato fries both were excellent and the burgers were juicy. Will return! read more

The only reason I'm giving this place a three is because the staff is incredible and the atmosphere is great. The food is overpriced and INCREDIBLY underwhelming. I'm so shocked that this place has the rating it does. Perhaps it's because it's a local, cute chain... so I understand almost like empathy ratings? The bun was the main component of the burger, so it tasted like a bread sandwich. The whole burger was flavorless and sad. My husband and I agreed (which usually we have very original opinion and that man will eat anything). We were very disappointed on how much we spent and how unappetizing a simple burger was. Super bummed! We love burgers and we especially love cute, local joints. read more

As a Nashville Native, this place is a time old staple! Don't be surprised when you hear "Welcome to Gabbys!" upon walking thru the door. Food and customer service are consistently great. The burgers are hand patted and always juicy! Definitely ask about their "secret menu" but the Seamus is my go to! Fries are fresh and pair well with any of the variety of sauces offered to dip! If you go during a week day, at lunch time, we prepared to wait for a table. But the food is worth the wait! The parking lot is small but hey, it's free parking in Nashville?! read more

Top tier service, burger, and fries. A little shack-like building with a decently sized parking lot on the outskirts of town, when you open the door, you will immediately make eye contact with the cashier who in turn will greet you with a big smile and feel so welcomed. I had the Seamus with everything with a side of regular fries. The burger tastes like a top tier homemade burger. Very backyard BBQ of your friend who really knows how to cook-like. To me, burgers are a food that generally tastes kind of similar ish regardless of where you get them (wouldn't be surprised if everyone uses the same distributor for patties) but not here. They also have a sauce bar so you can dress up your burger or dip your fries in whatever you want. Speaking of fries, these fries are AMAZING. They give you tons, and I couldn't finish them all, but I really wish I could have. I really hope In-N-Out spends some of their corporate relocation to Franklin time to learn from Gabby how to properly make fries. As you Tennesseans will learn when In-N-Out gets here in a few years, In-N-Out fries are very mid, and they use the excuse of "it's because our fries are freshly cut," but Gabby's fries blow them out of the water hands down. Seating is mostly bar/counter with a few 2-person and 4-person tables. The runner also provided excellent customer service by making sure I'm good, explaining that the sauce bar existed when she brought over my food, and taking my trash when I just was about to. Management also seems to really care about the workers: there was a sign stating that they would be closed for a few days to take all their staff to a Titans game, which I thought was amazing. Would absolutely be back when I'm in the area. read more

Yo burger and sweet potatoes fries and shakes awesome .hands down the best .kid from Brooklyn and I approve this message

I walked into this humble establishment and was warmly welcomed by the staff....and by that I mean THEY LITERALLY TURNED FROM WHAT THEY WERE DOING AND GREETED ME. It was awesome. The smell of the grill reminded me of my favorite home town burger joint and I immediately knew I'd be coming back. Simple menu but the cashier only positively led me through it and I never once felt a hint of the "are you serious?" Tone in his voice. Actually, I felt like he was someone I'd like to grab a beer with. I was most impressed by how methodical and cleanly the grill folk were. The man on burgers was a legend. Kept every single bag of buns closed when he wasn't grabbing one so they wouldn't get soggy like buns can get when they're near all the cooking meat and the steam and grease gets on them. Burger n fries, chili and a shake. My wife said it was her favorite burger since we moved here 6 years ago. Give it a go and let me know what you think. I'll be going back. read more

No frills, ol' school greasy burger joint! Can't get any better than that, reminds me of the 24hr diners back in the day.
