My husband and I have tried a lot of smash burger spots, but this place, hands down, is our favorite both in New Orleans and California. Very reasonably priced, amazing flavor, juicy patties, and consistently good! The place is somewhat hidden as you have to go through a bar to get to the burger spot. The staff is a small one, and you can tell they work hard! Very friendly even though they're very busy. read more

I am a person who has never craved a burger... until I had Slap Burger. My favorite is The Heater, single patty. It comes with their house made heat sauce and jalapeños on it. We come here once a month because I crave these burgers so often. I always forget to take a picture of my food because I'm too excited to eat it. We always get fries and mozz sticks read more

Original Slap Burger is in the very back of Marie's Bar. A little hard to find and they do take cards, despite the bar only taking cash. Staff were friendly and the turnover was quick. Seating is a bit tight, but there seemed to be a lot of takeout orders. I got the vegan version of a Big Mack and it was really good until I got to the middle of it. It was very heavily salted in the middle. Hoping it was a fluke. Otherwise everything was great! read more

The bar they are attached too is a great hole I the wall neighborhood bar with cheap drinks! Make sure you bring cash :) read more

We came here based on a recommendation from a fellow Yelp Elite! Smash burgers has become a favorite comfort food in New Orleans! And I have frequent cravings for it, so when we were told of the Original Slap Burger we had to try it! The Original Slap Burger is located inside of Marie's Bar and Kitchen in the Marigny. You have to walk through the bar to get there, but it is in it's own separate space. The space itself isn't too large and had limited seating. The vibe is super cute with lots of art on the wall. But fortunately we were there when it opened and got a good spot to enjoy our food. Food can be ordered at the window and then when your food is ready they'll call your name to get it. I got the OG Slap Burger and a side of fries. The burger and fries had a more premium look to them which also added to the taste! Both were good and I would definitely eat again. Definitely worth trying if you're in New Orleans! Service: You order at the window. The staff was super friendly and took the time with each order. Drinks: Full bar at Marie's Bar and Kitchen! Parking: Street parking. read more

I completely forgot to review this spot but as I was thinking about smash burgers I've had this year (and I'm from the east coast so I've had 7th street burger, Gotham etc.) I still think about this burger. Everything was perfect! The burgers were thin but massive, the cheese perfectly ooey gooey, the charred onions on top my goodness. The staff was quick with their service and everything was cooked fresh! Interesting tiny hole in the wall back of a dive far but if you find your way it's amazing. You won't regret it! read more

The bread (brioche), the patties, the grilled onions, the sauces... hands down the best smash burger in New Orleans. Gotta go double patty, and the heater (topped with jalapeños) and OG are phenomenal. If you're really hungry, the quad will put you 4 patties deep. The delicious brioche bun and chopped, grilled onions put these burgers ahead of competitors. The fries are perfectly crisp with a tender and satisfying interior. They remind me of Belgian frites. Seating outside is for all and offers beautiful views of its bywater/Marigny/st roch neighborhood; kids are prohibited from entering the building because of gaming devices. However, they will take orders outside if needed! Also - for drinks the bar is cash only. Neighbors are always present, enjoying a drink and a meal. read more

Came on a Sunday around 6PM. There was a bit of a line but it went fast. Waiting for the burger was less than 10 minutes after ordering. When we came to pick our order up, they let the next person in line know that they only had 7 patties left. It was only 630 and they close at 9! I ordered a single OG ($10), added jalapeños, and a side of heat sauce ($1) and a double heater ($14) for my dude. The patties were smashed well and had good flavor. I got the heat sauce on the side in case I didn't like the slap sauce. The heat sauce was much better for me since I enjoy spicier food, but it wasn't super spicy. Was good. Would return. read more

Was in the mood for a burger and we were driving around the upper 9th ward and this place came to mind. This place is inside of a bar you go to the back of the bar and order from a window. The young men are nice, quick and on point. While cranking these burgers out. Did i say how cute this bar is. It's a neighborhood spot and we had the pleasure of having a few drinks and laughs with Donald our bartender. I really enjoyed this Nola experience... read more

I went with my sister after a recommendation from a Yelp Elite member. The burger was said to be on par if not better than Bub's, so I came in with fairly high expectation. I had the heater and was definitely not disappointed. I really enjoyed the tangy flavor of the sauce and the meat was quite tasty. I would recommend a double though, as I wanted more meat. If you like Bub's, I think you'll enjoy this as well. The fries were good fresh, but nothing I would go out of my way for. The service was fast and friendly and we got to see everything made fresh! Ambiance was like a regular bar. The restaurant was in the back, but there were signs that led us in without issue. They also had cool decorations and a festive scary movie playing! read more

Burger joint tucked away in dive bar. The burger is good representation of a smash burger vs. the traditional style. Added bonus is you can order a drink while you wait for your burger. They make it to order, so it'll be piping hot and charred perfectly. Best to eat right away to take full advantage of all the flavors. read more

Original Slap Burger - Veggie - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

This place was a great find in Bywater during our trip to the Super Bowl visit in New Orleans. I just loved the "hole in the wall vibe" as we had to go through a bar to order. The burgers were incredible, thin/crispy edges, melted cheese, great sauce, soft and buttery bun. The fries were crisply on the outside and soft on the inside. I would highly recommend the Original Slap burger if you need a cure to your burger craving. read more

Original Slap Burger - Double Heater with Fries - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We paid Original Slap Burger a visit while in New Orleans and couldn't have been happier. They're located in the back of Marie's, a local bar with indoor and outdoor seating, so it's perfect to order then grab a beer while you wait. Let me tell you... those burgers are seasoned and cooked to perfection! The OG is a classic with insanely good Slap Sauce. The Heater was a great burger too, but it definitely brought THE HEAT. Spicy and delicious! I wish I had a Slap Burger back in Austin because I would be a regular. read more

Original Slap Burger - The OG Single Patty Burger - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

The Original Slap Burger is located in the back of a dive bar, "Marie's Bar & Kitchen." All burgers and fries are made to order by a small team in the kitchen. Grab a drink while you wait or watch some tv for 15-30 minutes. Super nice staff, very chill vibe, and amazing burgers. Be patient with them :) also they offer an allergens list on their wall before you order. If you're taking to go, get your sauce of the side so the burger and bread stays fresh til you get to your destination! We came at 6:20 pm on a Sunday and it was packed with 6-10 people eating burgers outside & also full inside before we ordered. We waited for about 35 minutes for our order of 2 burgers & fries. -- The Burger SLAPS. go. worth the wait. 10/10. They'll be seeing us again. Definitely worth the wait. Burger thoughts: 1) i love smash style burgers- thin meat patties 2) the seasoning slapped 3) great brioche bun, warmed, slightly toasted 4) awesome speciality sauce 5) grilled onions made to perfect crunch 6) cheese fully melted = Amazing Burger. read more

Original Slap Burger - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We walked over after a boozy night on Frenchman Street. We ordered one burger to split and after one bite I told my honey to go order another one. I declared it the best burger of my life. The next day I was reminiscing about how good the burger was and he told me I needed to try it sober before I added it to the top five of the best things I ever ate. So we hopped in an Uber and made our way back over before the debauchery began. You guys, it was STILL the best burger I ever had. Thin patties, crispy edges, soft bun and that slap sauce. SO GOOD! The fries were crispy and delicious. The entire meal was perfection. Kids aren't allowed and the sauce will make the burger soggy if you get it for carry-out, so plan accordingly. Not much seating in the bar, but I would happily sit on the curb and eat that bad boy. And I hope to do so soon! read more

I came here to try their burgers and I really loved their slap sauce, specifically the version on The heater. I love spicy food and even though it wasn't crazy spicy it was a good spicy that had good flavor, or should i say that flavor slaps lol . I did like the patties as they were not greasy and pretty well seasoned. I wish they could be thicker maybe 1/3 pound since they are so thin and wide in diameter at least for the price. If you are hungry double patty all the way. The serving size for fries is good, they should have the slap sauce for sale or come with the fries. As far as the ambiance, it's a bar there's not much to it, but the people there are nice. The service was right on time. Which was great and they are super nice. I will say I might come back for the quad patty challenge and get on the wall. read more

10 out of 10! This is a burger that should be on any burger lovers list. It's not the most convenient in terms of pick up or quick eats. But if you've got some time and are in the area, totally worth a stop. Burgers are well seasoned and delicious. These can be as spicy as you want them so be careful. Love the owner, he's super enthusiastic and cares about his burger service. It's located in a typical neighborhood "dive" bar, so if you can stay for a beer or soda, all the better. Great spot and delicious food! read more

Loved the smash burgers! Juicy and the sauce was immaculate. The service was decent. We waited about 20 mins for them. It's also located in a bar, too! The best combo: burgers and beer! It can't get ANY better than that! read more

NEWS ALERT!!! We got a new burger joint that will slap you in the face with flavor! Located inside the Marie's Bar in the Marigny Original Slap Burger is slaying taste buds with their delicious burgers. I went in after seeing one of their mouthed watering Instagram post about it's Large Mack. Here are my thoughts! The secret sauce is light, refreshing and full of flavor. Patties are fatty but not greasy and seasoned well. The bread is good and the pickles add texture and a bit of sourness tot eh bite. When you put it all together you got one hell of a burger. The fries are good but to be honest nothing to write home about hence the fours stars instead of five. For you vegetarians and vegans they got you covered as well. 10/10 recommend read more

Original Slap Burger - Single slap - Burgers Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

We visited Original Slap Burger on a weekend trip to New Orleans and I have to say this was one of the best burgers I have ever had! The kitchen is located in the back of Marie's, a dive bar located in the Marigny neighborhood. A short drive from the quarter but seems like a different place entirely, quiet and slow moving. Customer service was fantastic, and the vibes were immaculate, put your order in at the counter and go back up to the bar and grab a drink. Now the main attraction the burger, perfectly seasoned, not paper thin smashed burger. Fresh bun, fresh ingredients and a great sauce. Simple but done perfectly. Fries were crispy and seasoned well also. This will forever be a stop anytime we go to New Orleans in the future. read more

Bomb!!! Very Legit burgers, great for a late night burger. Just go easy on the salt.

Omg omg, it's worth the hype. All of it! If you want just a good, hearty smash burger, make the drive and come here. It's tucked away in the back of the bar...you simply put your order in at the window and wait for it to come out. Whichever variation of the burger you get, I highly recommend including grilled onions and the Mac sauce..thank me later. I'll definitely be back! read more

Hidden gem. It's on the back side of a bar which made me nervous because I had my nieces with me. But it wasn't an issue. We were able to all in through the side door and right into the restaurant. The burgers a messy delicious bite of heaven! It taste like a local flavorful bigger White Castle burger, lol. That's all I could liken it to but that also feels like an insult because it's so much better. The service is also awesome. The guy was patient and detailed especially with the kids. The place is small but has room for probably 2-3 small groups to dine. We had 4 in our party and sat and dined with no issues. Liked it so much went twice on my trip read more
