Short walk from Muji Portland. Killer Burger is on the corner of SW Washington 500 St and SW 3rd Ave. It wasn't too poppin at 6:30pm but that doesn't speak for the quality of the food. I got the small Smasher without pickles and with grilled onions and split small fries with my sister. The burger came to the table with pickles but easy to remove on my own. The flavor of the burger was delicious after a long day of walking. The ingredients tasted very fresh. The fries were a good thickness and had a beer battered taste. I love that there's a ketchup bottle for you at the table. You can also grab ketchup packets and other sauces near the fountain drink station. The towel roll at the tables was great. Didn't have to get up and get napkins. The food arrived within 10 minutes of seating. Water cups are available. If you're feeling adventurous you can try the Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon burger. There's two restroom stalls. One of them needed to be cleaned but the employee at the counter was kind enough to warn me. Code is needed to enter the restrooms. There's a changing station, manual flush toilet, automatic towel dispenser, and changing station. The employees were chill and seemed to have a good relationship with each other. There's sports on one tv. The ambiance is a little intense with the music but I didn't notice it until I was done eating because the food was so good. read more

I really enjoying coming here whenever we're in Portland! The burgers are tasty! Service is okay. Not really friendly but not rude either! Love they inside seating area. read more

Don't be peanut butter & jeally. We were wandering around Old Town after the haunted tunnels tour & it scared up an appetite! Stopped by the downtown location for a snack & a beer. This combo WORKS. Delish smashed patties, creamy PB, crisp pickle slices, all perfect for walking & drinking! Great fries, too. Bonus decal swag! Solid burger, fun vibe, good service. Def glad we stopped by on our trip to Old Town. Been there, ate there, got the sticker. read more

Had a lot of outside influences that drove my craving for a good burger as we traveled into Portland today, so we stopped in at Killer burger to kill that craving. Best decision to date. I ordered a pint sized Jose Mendoza meal w/ fries. Hubby ordered the classic w/ onion rings. Everything was delicious. The fries were arguably the best fries I've ever had in my life. I ordered them lightly salted & they came out with just the right amount of salt, just the right amount of crisp, & just the right amount of soft insides. The onion rings were well-battered & seasoned - not too much & not too little. Truly enjoyable. I made myself a mango lemonade iced tea with their fountain and lemonade selection & it was a great thirst quencher to take on the road. Great place - would recommend! read more

Amazing burgers and battered onion rings! Great drinks and atmosphere! The staff was very friendly!

This place ranks up at the top for burgers. Quantity and quality were outstanding!! The place was easy to find and the place was pretty slow when we arrived around 5p. The place has counter service with a nice selection of specially named burgers and chicken sandwiches. The place was large with plenty of table space. TVs littered the place. Pepsi products were refreshing, nice to drink a MT Dew. The French fries were also excellent. They gave you a huge helping! I tried the purity burger with an extra burger. You best be hungry if you get the extra patty. I certainly didn't leave with an empty stomach. Only complaint, serve Heinz ketchup and be done with it!! read more

First time staying in downtown PDX. Without any ideas of what to eat or where, quick yelp search for burgers brought up Killer Burger. It's only 3 short blocks from the AC Hotel Marriott. Inside has a somewhat rock/alternative vibe to it, which is my jam. Sports on the TV so it's got something for everyone. Choose to either dine in or take out. Lots of seating inside. Staff is friendly and restaurant is well maintained. Paper towel roll and ketchup bottle on each table. Hands down, the Motley Que is my absolute favorite burger. The crispy onions, bacon bits, bbq sauce with the well cooked smash burger and toasted/grilled buns! Omg, I'm still drooling over it! And the fries. Jeez, Portland knows how to do fries. Fried and salted perfectly. Each bite of fluffy crispy spud. They have small fries or "shareable", shareable is more than enough for 2 people. Their honey mustard sauce is pretty delicious too. We tried their Peanut Butter Pickle burger and that was cool. Personally neither of us fully enjoyed the entire burger but it was interesting and glad we tried it. What was not to our liking, how thick the peanut butter sauce is at the end. I think due to the peanut butter being, peanut butter, it just moves as a clump so our first half of the burger was light tasting of the sauce. Then the last half of it was just FULL of peanut butter and hard to swallow. I'd recommend trying it and cutting it up into 4 pieces immediately to get a few bites each, especially if you're on the edge of this trendy burger. During our 3 day stay, we had to eat here twice. Last meal before heading back to Hawaii. read more

Great burger! We all got the classic combo, some with bacon some without. The burger is super delicious, the fries not my favorite but may of just been my preference I prefer saltier smaller fries. They were pretty busy, but the food came out fast and hot! read more

Husband and I were searching for smash burgers and Yelp led us here. We were surprised by the size of the burgers; for $10 each, this is definitely decent value. However the fries were a little disappointing. One serving seemed like it was already partially eaten before reaching our table. The twang seasoning was excellent though! I had the PB burger while husband had the classic. I was surprised the PB was so sweet. I can see what they're doing for, pairing sweet and briny and salty but sadly it didn't work for me. I preferred the classic instead. Would have loved to try the $2 PBR but they were sold out! Ambiance was loud. It was hard to have a casual conversation. But facilities were clean, including the bathroom which requires an entry code. I would return if we're in the area, but don't think we'll seek it out. read more

Ordered online and walked down to get our food and brought it back to the hotel. Food was as expected for a burger place. They must have been swamped as numerous tables needed cleaning. Would go back. read more

I went there because this place was advertised as voted for best burger for several years in a row. I am not sure if it was just this location or if I went there at a bad time, but the burger was just ok. Service was quick and fast but the food was a bit disappointing. read more

Did I eat Killer Burger twice on my short trip back to Portland? Yes, yes I did. Service here is friendly and willing to help you with any requests. Ordered the Bender burger, a delicious Western-Style burger with bacon, bbq sauce, crispy jalapenos, grilled onions, cheddar, and more! Definitely the type of burger that puts you in a food coma. I might have been burger'd out, but I wasn't able to finish the last bite this time. I think the quality from the other location I went to was a little better, but this location is still valid when I'm looking for something to eat downtown. read more

After visiting Powells Book Store, I got on the bus and attempted to go to The Heist food pods. I got lost and was not going to make it since they closed at ten and I had my heart set on a Lao and Cambodian fusion truck called Golden Triangle. Instead of getting on another bus, i took my solo self on a walking tour for my bday. I really wanted to go to Creepy's or at the very least a creepy bar, i ended up walking into an alley way full of lights that had an oyster bar and a bar called Shanghai where it was dark, red and creepy. I went downstairs and they were rocking out. I left because it was not my vibe, but saw a keep Portland weird sign. I walked a few blocks for 10 minutes, checked out the food trucks near SW & Salmon. I was not interested and continued walking until I found Killer Burger and a Killer Burger sounded good. Of course, I wanted to keep Portland weird so why wouldn't I order a Peanut Butter Bacon & Pickle Burger. Did I like it? No. It was odd. I think the mayo threw me off. I think I would have been able to eat it without the Mayo. It had a powdery after taste, but i was determined to finish it. The cashier was si sweet and let me know if I did not like it, to please let her know. Portland's hospitality is just above and beyond and I fell in love with the city and people. Fries were delicious. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Wish I would have gotten a $2 beer from them. I would try Killer Burger again. read more

Overall a nice spot for a quick bite in downtown. Parking is a challenge just based on proximity and there is no dedicated lot. The food is definitely above average and the portions are fair for the price. The tables and floors could be kept a bit cleaner. The restrooms require a code. A pretty nice atmosphere and a good place for a casual bite. read more

Checked out Killer Burger and was able to try the classic burger. The burgers size was decent and buns were fresh. I went with minimal ingredients because I wanted to try the burger in its all its rawness. Upon the first bite, I already knew it was a quality burger. I was satisfied with my choice. Do check out if you're in the area. read more

I've been to killer burger a couple of times. Most times it's good. Today my burger was the worst burger I've had in a long time. Soggy lettuce, over soaked in mayo and the flavor was just so-so. It'll be a long time before I think of going there again. read more

Great little burger joint, burgers are BIG, you won't leave hungry and burgers are priced moderately I feel MOST importantly, $2 PBR all day from what I can tell, I went on a Saturday at noon and got two pints of PBR for a whopping $4, where can you even find prices like that these days!?! They advertise it in their windows but didn't believe it until I tried it myself lol It's got a good amount of seating and only like a ten minute walk from pioneer square where you can catch practically any MAX line to get anywhere so it's really convenient for public transit, so you know you can drink and not have to worry about driving :) There's a bar area in the back and well spaced out tables so it's got a chill vibe, you order at the front and they bring you the food, super simple system and you don't have to worry about anything or a waiter bugging you or anything Will definitely be going back :) maybe stop off on the way home from work and snag a beer now that I know how reasonable their prices are (also they have craft beers for $6.50 which is totally a good price too) read more

Vibe: casual, good music, friendly service Meat and Vegetarian options. They swap out the meat for a veggie patty if thats what you desire. I tried the Classic , made vegetarian and it was good. Fries were fine by not cooked enough. Second visit asked for fries "extra crispy" and then... perfection. read more

Got the Purist burger, it was pretty good. The fries were great. The service was alright.

I ordered the classic burger with no cheese and no bacon. They add way too much sauce in the burger and their bun is very dense. The fries were okay, not the best but not the worst fries I've had. Ambiance was casual. There's a good amount of tables inside. Service was normal. You order first and sit down. read more

The meat to bun ratio was great! The bun didn't last the entire meal due to the fat dripping off the charred meat and dissolving the bread. The patty had a perfect char and was seasoned just right. The fries were a 3 out of 5, not mind blowing, but not bad either. It's not a perfect 5 and I can't put my finger on why. I think this place is a great spot for a quick meal and an excellent spot for a greasy late night drunk burger. Check it out. read more

Great burger, served hot. Great fries. The coupon for free fries, however, was unable to be redeemed. No matter, the guy at the counter was able to eventually apply the discount with some help. There was some weirdness - they brought over a burger to my table, only to swap it out with evidently the actual burger that I ordered. I also had to go back to the counter and ask for the side of house sauce I ordered. There's also dust on the ledge behind the table I was sitting at. Great food, but service and cleanliness could use some work. read more

I don't typically write reviews, but this was truly disappointing and something needs to be said. I stopped in on my lunch break while at work. I don't know what happened in the process of making my burger, but an hour later while at work, I had the worst stomach pain. I was violently throwing up, which felt like borderline food poisoning. I don't eat anything out of the ordinary. I wasn't hung over. I wasn't sick prior to eating the burger, but never in my life have I ever been that sick an hour after eating something. Needless to say, I lost the last three hours of my shift and had to go home early because of how sick I was. I don't know if there was an issue with sanitation? Maybe it was the vegetables? I'm not sure. All I know is, I'm extremely disappointed by this experience. What's even more disappointing is the customer service was great. The environment of the restaurant is also great. After this however, I will not be going back and I will not spend money here ever again. read more

I love this place but the new seedless buns are the biggest downgrade ever. Bring back the old ones. These taste so low quality it ruins the whole burger read more

We no longer go anywhere else for a burger. Never, Killer is the bomb for many different reasons. My favorite? The Peanut Butter Pickle. That may seem odd but in my mind it the best d**n burger going. Partner always gets the Meathead, together we've prolly eaten 1/3 of a herd at various Killer Burgers and we plan to do more. On our last visit to Third and Washington my left arm was wrapped in a huge cast and sling. When our meals came, the counter person had sliced my sandwich into fourths and secured each with a tooth pick to make things easier for me. Meanwhile, the server made sure everything was laid out on the table for my convenience. Is it the best place in town? I dunno, haven't been everywhere. What I do know is I'm not looking elsewhere. read more

Gal at the counter was fantastic and welcoming, burger and fries didn't disappoint either.

Got a classic cheeseburger and fries with a lemonade. The fries were the best part. They were so crispy and hot. The lemonade was just water with the hint of lemon so terrible. The burger itself was a good size, but it kind of tasted like a less tastier Carls Jr burger. I'm from California so I know my burgers hopefully next time I try something it will be much tastier. read more

Saw a sign on the side of the window as we made our way into town and I immediately knew I had to try this peanut butter burger. These kind of weird combinations tend to work and this one definitely does! The peanut butter adds just enough to where you taste it but not overpower the rest. Walked in and the workers were nice and the food was made pretty quick. Definitely recommend! read more
