Food was unbelievable. I've lived in this state for 30 years. I haven't had a cheeseburger that's good in 30 years. That's the best Burger in the state of North Carolina people don't walk here around here. I got a cheeseburger and a small one bit sway. It was under 10 bucks. I would have paid 20 . Cooked Medium rare. LTO Mayo and pickle. read more

Don't walk run for a burger here! Special place at OKI! My husband - who is recovering from surgery - ate like he was 18 yo ordering a dog and burger. Be very prepared for the large burger. The patty is massive! Veggies are fresh and tasty. Fries hot! Diner style place with booths and bar only 5 seats but to go is always a nice option. Really great staff. Everything hot and tasty!

One of the best hamburgers ever made! Casual, local family owned lunchtime burger "joint." Always busy, especially during the summer beach season when folks line up for these awesome flavor bombs. There are some other sandwich options, but ... Get a large cheeseburger or bacon cheeseburger with fries. You'll thank me later! Yum! read more

Little Bit's Grill - Lunch menu as of July 2023 - Burgers Near Me - Oak Island, North Carolina

Sad...had a burger here a year ago that was good. Drove a little ways to repeat the experience and they were CLOSED during their posted business hours. (Hours posted on yelp and in their store window). read more

I am visiting the area and I spent the morning going through Yelp listings trying to figure out what to eat. I took so long that it became lunch time. I've had a craving for a really good burger. Unfortunately, I still have the craving. I saw this listing where Yelp puts a description, "burgers with an Asian twist." I looked at the menu and saw no Asian influence but the burger pics looked good so I decided to try it. I had a small burger, which is funny cause it's a half pound of meat. Not so small unless it is compared to their large 14oz burger. I got it "all the way." I had to drive 5 minutes to get back home so I know my food will lose a little heat. When I sat down and opened the wrapper the bun was already getting a little mushy and the burger had almost no warmth. I bit into it and I can't describe the texture. It was a mushy bite, tasted no chili and got a sugary sweetness. Nothing in "all the way," tells me I am going to get a sweet bite. The chili, if it was there, had no flavor so that's why I'm not sure it was there. I can only assume the sweetness was in the slaw, which definitely is not a taste you want when eating a burger. The fries were fine. The order was small and, unhappily, they were unsalted. I didn't have any salt so I couldn't improve the flavor. If I can't find a better burger locally, I may try here again but I will eat it right away while it's hot. I will also get it without the chili or the slaw so I can avoid the sweetness. I don't usually give places a second chance but, I feel like, if I can get the burger in the Yelp pics then I will be happy. I would definitely suggest Yelp get rid of the Asian twist description in the listing. read more

Best burgers on Oak Island and quite possibly in Brunswick County!!!! The small burger is more than most people can eat. Counter seating as well as a few booths. Very friendly local owner and always a pleasure to visit! read more

Curbside or takeout only upon my visit here. Club sandwiches for my bride and myself. Nothing special, nowhere to sit down and eat, so we ate in the car, very messy. I see, now, people are raving about the burgers - next time will have to try those. read more

We've been trying to order from here FOREVER. Finally finding it open we decided to check it out. The burgers are 8 or 14 oz. Huge. But they aren't seasoned. They need salt. The bun ratio is on point. I would suggest ordering and taking it home or to the beach. Eating in the car was a mess. Fries - they have the fries that look breaded. I do not enjoy those fries at all. I gave them three stars for price point, bun ratio and smiling service. read more

Love this place gracious staff, great food. The place was full of locals even though it was off season. Have fun getting in in season. read more

Id go try this place for yourself but there are a few confusing things that happened. -why do they use styrofoam? 2-medium well doesn't mean still mooing (I still ate it because I hate complaining). 3-Mayo on top of cheese? The top bun disintegrated and it was so hard to eat. 4-why use shredded lettuce ...just a fail there. But like I said, I'd go try it yourself and make up your own mind. read more

Stopped on the way out of town ordered a small burger and fries to go, the burger was gray, greasy, and had a lot of pink spots in the middle on a mushy bun. I took one bite and could not eat it. Wrapped it up in some paper towels, put it in the cooler, 5 hours later when I got home I seasoned and cooked it and it was pretty good. read more

best burgers ever still! We have been eating these burgers since she was on pier. And Kim is carrying on her mother's tradition. This time we tried splitting fries, hoping I could finish the smalll burger..no luck. lol Messy all the way is the only way to go! I do like the crinkle cut fries they used to serve better than the shoe string they have now. Onion Rings are always on point. This place is a monument to just a good burger! read more

Son introduced me to Little Bit's 7 years ago. Freshly cooked, small cheeseburger "Bit's Way" is my favorite, juicy, hot, great quality of meat, and fresh tomato, lettuce. Had to finish with my fork because it was so big and it literally drips with savor. Fast, quick service, with friendly personable staff. Best priced burger in the Oak Island/southport area of NC. Delish! read more

There are not enough words to describe this little jewel of a restaurant. The burgers are big juicy and well worth every penny. The restaurant is spotless and staff friendly. You want be disappointed! They even do a great job on takeout during COVID read more

This used to be our favorite stop for burgers for many years. I am not sure what has changed or if it was just so busy they couldn't keep up. Our burgers were gray.... Yes gray looked liked they had been steamed not grilled. No color at all.So disappointed because we had made this a definitive stop everytime in oak island read more

Awesome food, never had anything that I wasn't fantastic. I have to be honest - I LOVE the tots and the burgers. The service is fantastic and the owner goes out of her way to make sure you get what you want. The new table tops and counters look awesome. I'm be of the cleanest, if not the cleanest places to eat read more

Really good burgers and very friendly service. Good prices also. Seating is limited so there may be a wait during peak lunch hour.

Glad I read previous reviews about the size of the burgers. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger (small.) Burger was a fresh made patty, the bacon was crisp. I had them add chili to my burger, and I assume it was the canned stuff from a grocery store -nothing wrong with that, but it was easy to tell it wasn't made on premise. Fries were typical as anyplace would serve. Decor is Asian wall hangings, which seems a little odd for a burger place. To each his (or her) own I suppose. The server was friendly, so I guess I avoided the persons other reviewers warned about. Better than average burger. read more

I tried LIttle Bit's Grill on a long holiday weekend at OKI. The restaurant is tiny, with only a few booths and a small bar for seating. The Asian-inspired artwork wasn't what I expected at a grill in coastal NC, but at least it was a small surprise at an otherwise unimpressive restaurant. After reading the other reviews on Yelp, perhaps I should have tried the hamburger, but my hotdogs were mediocre and not nearly as good as the hot dog many convenience stores serve at a lower price point. Our server, who was excellent and very attentive, told me the hot dogs were deep fried. Instead of deep frying the hot dog to enhance the flavor and texture of the hot dog, the fry was used for a quick cook. The bun was very fresh, while I suspect the chili and slaw probably came direct from the food distributor. For $3, I received a tiny serving of fries that had obviously been sitting around and really should have been fried a minute or two longer. Based on my experience Little Bit's main selling point is its location towards the middle of OKI and definitely not the food. Meh read more

Fantastic burger and fries! I moved to Oak Island about 6 months ago and I have wanted to try Lil Bits the entire time. The hours aren't the best for me 11-2 (not a lunch eater) but I finally made it there today. The small diner was full and we waited about 2 minutes for 2 seats at the bar. I read previous reviews that their burgers are very large, so I ordered a large (14oz!!) cheeseburger with a side of fries and my boyfriend ordered a large cheeseburger lil bit's way (everything on it!!) and a side of onion rings. Everything was made fresh right in front of us rather quickly. We were a bit intimidated by the size but both finished everything. I am a small girl and I think I impressed everyone by cleaning my plate! I love large portions, as I am used to Pittsburgh size portions. Burger was very tasty. We will be back! read more

The best hamburger you've ever had! awesome staff, yummy sweet tea. The locals love it, so you know it's great!

Man you'd better be ready to eat when you go to Little Bit's! I'm a full grown hombre and the large cheeseburger almost beat me. So big, so good, so worth the wait. The staff busts their fear ends to feed people fast but always in a friendly way. read more

Great food! Love the hamburgers and sausage dogs. The staff is very friendly and usually the wait is a few minutes. Very popular place for lunch on OKI. The only issue I have is if you don't get there early when they open, you can't get onion rings. They run out of them fast. I don't know if it's a problem getting onions or what. read more

I've had several to-go burgers from here over the years, but this was just my second time dining in. The place was neat and clean with no clutter and a unique blend of old-time diner with a unique nod or two to the Asian roots of the owners. Being the week after Labor Day, there were several tables available despite my noon arrival time. We were greeted and seated promptly, orders were taken and served quickly, and staff made sure our iced teas never approached anything resembling empty. The burgers were piping hot, cooked to order (medium for me, well done for my FIL), huge, and as tasty as always. Same goes for the French Fries and I appreciate the switch from the crinkle cut to strings. If there has been any change in quality after the retirement of Bit, it is not noticeable. If you are visiting OKI/Southport, Little Bits is one of the must-try Burgers in an area blessed with must-try Burger Joints. read more

I remember eating at this little place last year and thought that their burgers were literally to die for! Returning this year, not so much. Apparently they have started seasoning the burgers with a garlic salt, maybe too much of it. Certain bites of the burger were almost unbearable, even with all the mustard, ketchup, tomato, onion, lettuce, chili, slaw, pickles, and cheese on board- just GARLIC. I also was asked how I wanted the burger cooked, I chose medium well and it came back well done. Which this little place gets slammed pretty quick during lunch so... Maybe we caught them on a bad day? I really hate it because this was my favorite little place to visit. I give four stars because the owner is such a charm and her daughter is a superior waitress, very attentive. Just bring back the burgers I remember please! I'll try again next year I guess. read more

We have tried to eat at Little Bit's several times. Seems like our timing was always off. A few weeks ago we were down for a few days and got there when they were open. I went in to order and was greeted. They brought the food out to the car and wow! What a burger. I ordered a large cheeseburger and got my wife a small one. If you are really hungry order the bigger burger but there is nothing little about either one. I am looking forward to my next trip to Oak Island and hope to make it back to Little Bit's! read more

Will not eat there again. Gave the burgers two try's. First try- ordered medium well small burger all the way- burger was delivered raw- not rare like cool pink, but inside was cold raw like beef tartar. Sent it back, got another burger. Very bland burger. No taste or seasoning to meat beyond some garlic. Very large bland burger. If big and bland is your thing, this is the place for you. Waitress was very kind,attentive and apologetic. Tried one last time. Since they only have a very limited soda menu, and I don't care for Diet Pepsi, I ordered a Diet Pepsi with a shot of Sierra Mist in it just like I was served on my first visit. The very rude waiter said that wasn't allowed- to mix the sodas. I asked why and he replied the owner does not allow a soda to be mixed. I then told him he could tell the owner I would be having my soda mixed with 100% water and I'll just keep my 2 bucks and let her buy the cups (honestly had I not had a starving family with me I would have left right then. ) Anyway same dull burger, this time my sons burger was raw after being ordered med well. Third time will not be the charm as I will not be returning. read more

Best Burgers on the Island. The first time I went, I got the large bacon cheeseburger and fries. Wow. It was amazing. All the Way is the only way. read more

Husband is obsessed with their burgers... and I've never seen a burger quite so big! Sometimes it is hard to get through on the phone to place an order since they stay so busy but keep trying because it is worth it. Tiny place, so we usually order to go so that others can have a place to sit. read more

A friend of mine said these were the best burgers he had ever had. My wife and I tried them today. They were excellent. Definitely in my top 3 for sure. Maybe top 2 and I have a lot of burgers including my own deer burgers. Fries can be hit and miss. These were fantastic. By the way, we got the "small" burgers at 1/2 pound each. We left full for sure. Staff was great. Will go there again no doubt. Try it. You will not be disappointed. read more
