I had a double cheeseburger you get a good size burger for your money. It was cooked the day I like it. As far as flavor it's a burger. It was good but it is hard to not be good. I had onion rings with it. The onion rings were quit taste. The only have Pepsi cola products which I do not like so I got water. They had a little trouble pricing out the onion rings because it is usually just an adder to the basket price. So the Sind then to me at the fries price. They were friendly and the food arrived quickly. read more

Haven Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I love grilled burgers and this was a great burger for when you are craving a backyard burger but just want to go and buy one instead. Really delicious. read more

Delicious breakfast burritos until 11:30. Burgers are amazing. Can't go wrong eating here, although seating area is really limited. We go at off-peak times to eat inside. Delicious food! read more

Not impressed with the quality of the meat or ingredients. A measly patty was slopped between generic sesame buns. California burger isn't anything to get excited about peeps. The onion ring batter was okay at best. read more

Not bad at all......great little place for Breakfast not a dive by any means but not 5 star by any means but no complaints on my end, it is a quick and split. If you're in the area and want Mel's Diner (telling my age) this the go to place. ;) read more

Great burgers, burritos, fries, fried zucchini! Haven burger is our favorite and their breakfast burritos are so good too! Never had something we don't like. Great little family run place!! read more

Awesome place. If you are visiting or in the Mesa area. This place is soooo good. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

My buddy wanted to try this restaurant because they had good reviews and the photos of the burgers looked amazing. I went there last night at 8:30 to the place being closed, while every website shows that they're open to 9. Oddly enough, their own website takes you to some diet website.... There was a small parentheses that the hours were subject to change at any given time. It would be nice if they had a functional website that said so before I drove 15 miles to find out I wasn't getting a burger. It's too bad that you have to call to RSVP your burger but pro tip: If you're going past 8, call in advance to see if they're open because you'll never know what you get if you just show up read more

Always good food and the Haven Burger is delicious, as well as the zucchini. This place is a staple of our weekly luncheons.

Never had a pastrami burger before and I found out I've been missing out. The burgers are made right in front of you with fresh ground meat and the pastrami is simmering in a pan of juices on the flat top. I was skeptical of how the flavors would mesh and was amazed at the combination. It had a balance so neither flavor dominated the other they just worked in unison to delight your taste buds. A very hardy burger that will fill you up. The fries were good but after seeing the onion rings were hand made I wish I had ordered those too, even though we were stuffed and couldn't even finish the fries. I will be on the lookout for pastrami burgers now, as I travel. Yum! read more

We found this place about a year ago. Only gets better each time decided to update my review because today was a busy busy evening for them an let me tell you all orders were being carefully reviewed for perfection ... even my picky order was on point. Ty Tony and team read more

If you're looking for a decent burger joint, there are better but you won't be making a bad choice coming here. The atmosphere is of a small food joint and the grill out in the open. The dining area isn't the cleanest, I could see chunks of dust sitting on decor under the wrap around counter. You do have the open of an outdoor patio but when we went around 12 on Saturday, all of the tables were dirty and neglected. Food wise, I ordered the California Burger, as it seems the owner and co were from there and that was a specialty. The burger itself wasn't awful but the store bought patties and bags of commercial buns didn't offer anything to the taste factor. The other weird thing is the charge of a refill on your soda after the first one. It's 2017, we all know that restaurants profit on that syrup from the first cup. Seems like bogus thing to charge for but whatever. read more

Best place in downtown Mesa! Tony is amazing. We've been coming for about 4 years and Tony remembers us every single time! Best burgers in downtown Mesa! read more

Fantastic burgers. This is where you get a real burger. Not a fast food burger or those greasy stomach bombs they serve at five guys etc. I love bringing people here as well. The location is a little misleading but the food brings me and all of my guests back. If you don't want a burger they also have a huge menu with many different things. So why not 5 stars? I have been to the restaurant several times and every time I interact with the workers it's a little strange. They're never blatantly rude or anything, just less welcoming sometimes. Probably just busy and focused! Definitely go though! read more

Visited the Pioneer Park's new Farmers Market Place and decided to find lunch downtown Mesa and found Haven Burgers. This place is a great local place to eat. The staff is friendly and the food was fresh off the grill! We tried the Haven Burger and really enjoyed it! I'm super picky about my iced tea and they have a great unsweetened one here also! Fresh crispy French fries are a must with you meal. We will also be back again to try out the breakfast menu! read more

If you're interested in having some seriously wonderful cuisine! Go here! Their burgers feel like they were grilled in the backyard. Fresh ingredients! Great fries. read more

My girlfriend is from CA and she hasn't been able to find an authentic California style burger joint until this one. This place is amazing. I swear we come here at least once a week. I've tried several different things and they're always delicious. I think my favorite will always be the cheeseburger and fried zucchini. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming as well. read more

Excellent food! great price! My shop loves to eat there! Friendy fast service! AirSlamit.. read more

Kind staff. Clean. Easy Access. Get the Haven Burger.........!!!!!!!!! Good Value. read more

We loved haven burger. I had the haven burger and my husband had the California burger. We both enjoyed them. Service was great, fast and efficient. Definitely going to be back! read more

Haven Burgers is very clean. Burgers are REALLY good. Service is friendly and fast. Prices are low. This place is family owned and you can tell they are passionate about and proud of their food. I'm probably going to have to come back to try other things on the menu. They also have breakfast including breakfast burritos, French toast, and cook to order omelets. They also have Mexican style burritos and quesadillas, and a variety of salads. The burger was excellent though, so as I sit here in the booth digesting and writing this, I'm already thinking about the next one I'm gonna order when I return. read more

First timer, and boy was it delicious. I ordered the Large Greek salad and The Haven Pastrami Burger..yum! Will definitely order again.

I'm not really big on hamburgers, but when I'm craving one, this is my go to spot cuz it's pretty yummy. I usually get the basic cheese burger and it's always bigger than I remember and have a hard time finishing it and their great steak fries. But I try. read more

I had to be in downtown Mesa tonight so I stopped into Haven burgers for a quick bite to eat. I went with the double cheese burger combo and it came out quick and tasted excellent. I was suprised at the variation of food available on the menu. Theres sandwiches, burgers, Mexican food and breakfast dishes. I'm happy I got to stop in and try this place out for the first time. If I'm back in the area I'll definitely stop in. read more

Dope spot. I'm from Long Beach in Cali. This is a straight up Cali burger joint. Burgers and chili cheese fries. Can't never go wrong with that combo. Thank you guys. read more

Haven Burgers is a friendly sandwich shop in central Mesa. I've only been there once, so I'll try to add details about my personal experience. When I find a new sandwich shop, I always order a Pastrami sandwich. Doesn't matter if it's hot or cold, just as long as it's Pastrami. Haven Burgers happened to have a Pastrami and it drew me in. Haven Burgers service is rather quick which I was pleased about and the sandwich came out all nice and cut in half (the way I like it). I drove home and unwrapped my sandwich and began devouring it. However, if you know me, I'm not a fan of soggy bread. Soggy bread is the worst thing ever and this sandwich, while good and tasty with quality Pastrami, had soggy bread. I'll forgive Haven Burgers for this misfortune by stating I drove home ( a good 10-15 minute drive) therefore giving time for condensation to build up in the wrapping. However, the soggy bread still deducts 1 star. I originally would have deducted 2 stars for soggy bread but the cause of it may have been my fault. Once the construction on Main is lesser than its current state, I will return to this restaurant and attempt again at finding my Pastrami sandwich. I'm not sure if I would recommend this place, but we'll say yes because I love local eateries and always try to support good food when I find it. read more

I got the Haven burger lettuce wrapped. They put pastrami in it....enough said...it taste amazing! Order was ready in just 2 mins. Was only around $6. Well worth the price and filled me up. Highly recommend! read more

Haven Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I had high hopes for this place after reading some of the reviews. I decided to go with the Rib Eye sandwich. The steak was over cooked and extremely rough. I only ate half of the sandwich because of how rough the steak was. My co-workers told me I should have gone with the Haven burger instead. Wish they would have told me this prior to me deciding to have lunch at this place. read more

Having lived in CA for 30 years & recently moving here, I had no idea that a pastrami with mustard & pickles on a roll served at the Hat or Johnny's was "california" style. But I was familiar with the CA style suburban burger diner with a large menu of burgers, fries, breakfast, & misc. fried options. So I gave Haven Burgers a try. The pastrami was just the style i was looking for, a little small, and light on the mustard, and bun was kinda dry, but I do love the effort that was put forth. It's my favorite pastrami in the area even though it falls short of the Hat or Johnny's. The charbroiled burger was definitely good. Haven does a good job of providing comfort food at a fair price. The place has a family ran vibe, they're friendly, and I'll be back to support them as I hope they continue to find success. read more

I've eaten here before and I always try to support local businesses but the owner/cook won't make my food the way I want. He was yells at his employee (non English speaking undocumented worker) then a server is screaming the whole time sitting at the bar making the environment stressful and tense we won't be back. A lot like southern Cali restaurants just super unprofessional. read more

Haven Burger, wow. Needed a burger joint in this area today and this had good reviews here and on Google. We went and wow. The Haven Burger has pastrami and 1000 Islands dressing, and it was so awesome. The owner was totally rad, too. I know it costs lots for the license but a beer would've topped it off very nicely! read more

I work in Mesa and was attending a training when I decided to pull up my yelp app and look for a good burger. Haven Burger instantly popped up and I was a little bit apprehensive but went anyways, and boy am I glad I did. I had the Haven burger combo with pastrami and it was amazing. I am a huge fan of the guy Fieri burger at Hodads in San Diego and it's the closest I've eaten to that burger. Will definitely be returning and recommend Haven Burger read more

Good amount of food. Left the restaurant full. Got the Single patty, pastrami, mustard, thousand island, lettuce, tomato, onion. Good burger, meat was tough and a lower quality meat. I would recommend that people try it and I would eat there again but I would not say it is the best burger I have ever had. Fries were decent. Thicker cut fries, better than fast food fries. Crispy outside, soft on the inside, lightly salted. Served plenty on the plate. Overall satisfied and would go there if I was nearby read more

Went for lunch and although I did eat all my food I wont be back. I had the avocado burger and my lunch partner had the California burger. I expected a bigger patty. It was borderline where's the beef. Im not a fan of shredded lettuce and my tomato was slightly grainy. Just trying to keep it real. read more

Been coming to Haven Burgers for the last 3-4 years now. The location is always clean, and the staff is very friendly, and family owned/operated. The burgers remind me of small burger joints you'd find in Southern California. The Haven burger is really good... If you're feeling really daring, try a California burger with Chili on it. Their fried zucchini and onion rings are top notch. Them seem to always use fresh veg and the fried items aren't grease soaked. These guys know how to do crispy! They aren't open for the early morning breakfast rush, but once they do open -- they serve full menu! So whether you want a breakfast burrito or a burger and fries in the morning, they're always happy to fire up the grill. Support local. This place is a Staple hamburger joint in Mesa. Don't miss out! read more

While waiting an eternity at stop light to stop light on Main St. rush hour I started checking nearby bookmarks and feeling defeated because I had passed them all checked the nearby option and saw this place and pictures of Pastrami. Sold. After a few more lights I finally made it into the hard to access plaza(coming in and leaving depending on your destination) and into this place. The staff was friendly and there were a bunch of people waiting on orders so I was amazed how fast I got my food. I got the combo with the Pastrami sandwich which was almost not even need except for the drink on the hot day because the sandwich is huge. Its salty and spicy with the mustard slathered in there and the pickles brighten everything up between bites. When they say California style they really do remind me of a spot right by my aunt's place in Anaheim right down to the menu. read more

Haven Burgers - Pastrami - Burgers Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I was looking for a place for lunch today in Mesa, and decided to try something new. Haven Burger came up as an interesting option. I had never heard of it; it's a local spot right across from the temple. I knew this is a sketchy neighborhood, so I didn't know what to expect - but place actually looks nice and clean, inside and out. The setup looks very similar to another locally owned burger joint, the popular Giant Hamburger. The grill is right behind the counter, so you can see them cooking the food, just as at Giant. It's small, with something like 4-5 tables and a similar number of booths. I went with their signature Haven Burger combo. The burger is topped with lettuce, tomatoes, pastrami, and thousand island dressing. Another similarity to Giant: you're basically eating fast food, but it's not fast at all. Sure, the wait isn't quite as long as you'd get at a gourmet burger joint, but don't expect to sit down and start eating right away. This isn't a knock on the place, but something you should expect. As far as the food is concerned, it's very good for a fast food burger. The pastrami and thousand island dressing really work on the burger. The quality of the ingredients is not what you would expect at a gourmet burger joint, so don't expect a nice, thick, juicy patty cooked medium-rare with thick-sliced pastrami. It's just good enough to make this an excellent fast food burger. The drinks offered are standard Pepsi products. (They give you one free refill, although I don't know that they're strict on this. You shouldn't drink that much soda anyways!) They also have horchata and jamaica (no refills), but I didn't get them, so I don't know how they rate. The single biggest problem with this place is no doubt the fries. These are freezer fries, not fresh cut. They were really not good fries - I regretted not getting the thousand island or ranch dressing to dip them in ($0.30 extra). Some vinegar would also help a lot; I didn't see any vinegar anywhere, but I didn't ask, either. If they don't improve their fries, it'll be hard to justify eating here over one of the popular mid-range burger chains (Five Guys, Smashburger, etc.) where they actually have tasty fries. Overall, I'd rate this a step above Giant, two steps above your average fast food burger (Burger King or Wendy's), and a step below Five Guys and Smashburger. If they were to improve their fries, they might be able to move up to that next tier. (Their prices are more reasonable, though, so if you're budget-conscious, this may be a better option.) Haven Burgers is a reasonable place to eat if you're in the neighborhood, or you're on a budget and want something better than Burger King. But don't add it to your list of destination burger joints. read more

Had the haven burger. Would have been great if I liked onions! This burger has enough onions on it for 5 burgers. Onions where not mentioned or listed in the description of the burger. If you are not an onion fan or have an onion allergy, make sure you tell them to hold the onion or else you will be eating an onion burger with some meat! Everyone in my party had to remove all or some of the onions because they overpowered everything. The restaurant is very dirty. Had a hard time eating the onion burger in the dirty smelly atmosphere. Bathrooms were bad and looked as if they had not been cleaned recently. The staff was friendly and were really the only decent part of the experience. If it was not for the whole onion on the burger, the very very dirty restaurant and bathrooms it would have been an ok burger joint. read more

This place is small, but they serve a mean hamburger! All are grilled on the spot, they have a large variety to choose from and the fried zucchini is to die for! My family has tried from the basic burger to the California, avocado and Haven burgers and all have been fantastic! Service is quick, and place is clean. Great for family dinners. read more

Darn good burgers served up in a small diner spot. The service and food didn't disappoint! Portions were large and the guys behind the counter were awesome. I'm not a huge Pepsi fan, but was pleasantly surprised by the soda machine (similar to the Coke freestyle). Definitely one of our top faves now! read more
