Wow! Cute little side street burger joint. Walk up, pickup or delivery only. Ordered a double bacon burger and a spicy chicken. Split with the hubs.... They even cut them in half for us. So freaking good. Bacon was chopped up, first time I've had it like that on a burger and honestly it's genius. You get bacon with every bite and dont have to worry about pulling a piece completely off your burger when you take a bite. Spicy chicken was super tasty, had a really good favor. But, while you could taste spice, it was definitely on the mild side. Onion rings were crispy. The gals at the counter were super sweet too. Great on the go dinner spot for us on our roadtrip. Recommend!! read more

I'll take some blame for the 3 star review because I arrived at this establishment directly from the DMV. I spent a lot of time at the DMV, and got very little accomplished. So I thought maybe there was a solution. But sometimes it's just not meant to be. My fat friend Sam, as well the maintenance man where I work, had highly recommended Slay Burgers. The maintenance man, Tito, had much more enthusiasm about the establishment. With that being said, he isn't nearly as fat as my fat friend Sam so I was a little skeptical. Once I arrived, I was eager for a beer. If only my fat friend Sam would have warned me this is not the spot to go to right after the DMV. It's not a sit down spot, but my fat friend Sam recently stopped drinking. I often forget that. so now, I decide to shake things up a little, and get two bacon and two doubles cheeseburgers. This way I can try the bacon first and if I like it, I claim it. If I don't, we all split. So naturally, I start eating in the car. As I bite into the bacon cheeseburger, I try to convince myself I like it. But three bites in, I know we're all splitting this lunch. I lie to the family and tell my Dad the Bacon Burger is good. "Let's all split." He plays along with it knowing the bacon cheeseburger is unfortunately, a bad burger. The smash burger, I enjoyed. I will be going back to Slay Burgers. This one is on my Fat friend Sam. Unfortunately, he did not preface me on the ambiance. I look forward to knowing there is a shot clock when I arrive at the window. read more

If you're a burger lover like me, Slay is the spot! Finally made it here, and wow, Slay nailed it. Juicy, cheesy, perfectly meaty with a soft bun and toppings spilling out the sides. This is the kind of burger that makes you want to take a nap afterward and I did. Slay is absolutely a Brookland Park staple. Everything about it screams indulgence, so maybe not an everyday thing unless you're okay with putting on a few extra pounds. Totally worth it for a treat. Slay is all that and a bag of chips. read more

Slay Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

The service and the attitude of the employees are despicable. Zero greetings from employees they look in and say nothing. It's like they hate their job and take it out on their customers. read more

Gear place to grab a sandwich to go. I'm told the burgers were good. Personally got the hot chicken sandwich. It was delicious and not super greasy. The fries were decent and the price (got the combo) was good. Be warned there is no place to sit inside. It's tiny. Just a counter to order at and a small space to wait in. The staff were fine. Not the friendliest bunch but not rude. Make a good enough burger though and you can be the soup nazi for all I care. read more

If you love a good chicken sandwich, this one needs to be in your rotation. It was that good. The burgers looked just as solid--I'll be back to try a smash burger and report back. read more

Hmmm, all in all, a bit underwhelming... -- Slay Burger (no pickles, no onions): Incredibly delicious. No complaints. I usually opt for double patties when it comes to smash burgers but one was sufficient. -- Corn Dog Nuggets: Breading is tasty but the dogs were dry and rubbery. They were too hot for the styrofoam, so I'd suggest a different container. You get two freebie sauces, but one of mine was missing. -- Waffle Fries: For $3.49, you don't get much. They visually appeared more seasoned than they tasted. Also, lukewarm. Not too hot for the styrofoam, unfortunately. -- Wings: They have plain wings on their menu which is what I ordered. You get a freebie sauce, but I figured the sauce would be on the side since they also have "BBQ Wings" on their menu. There was no distinction. My wings were doused (not tossed) in BBQ sauce. They were moderately tasty but not at all what I wanted. Next time, I'll just stick with the burger and call it a day. If I want a burger and fries (and better parking), I'll go to Smashed RVA. read more

Best burgers in Richmond in my opinion. It's always consistent. Can't wait for the Chester location to open up as well

Yumm! Great smash burger.. the single patty option was plenty, unlike some other spots where u wish u would have doubled up. Fresh tasting beef, a little light on the lettuce. I came home and added more lettuce, jalapeno, and bacon (cuz they charge an extra $2 for bacon). The onion rings were nice too. I would definitely come back. read more

Listen... if i lived closer, i would be a billion pounds cuz the way this burger taste.... Omg... 10/10... bologna burger was a little salty but it was still had a good flavor. We ordered it online so it wasn't much interaction but.... When i went in, there was no greeting or anything either... that really deserved me to take a star away.... But the burger was so bomb, im going to keep it at 5 read more

My fiancé and I came here for lunch after our wheel throwing class at Hand Thrown. I've been wanting to try Slay Burgers for a long time now and am happy I finally did. Their burgers are incredible. If you're looking for juicy, greasy, deliciousness, look no further. This spot is super fun with all its cartoon burgers and anime/fantasy shoutouts on the walls. It's a really casual spot with no tables. They do have benches inside and out front that we ended up eating on. I can't wait to come back and try more things. They offer burgers as well as other goodies like fish sandwiches and chicken nuggets. There are tv menu displays above the cashier. On our visit, I got the omni (I highly recommend this) and my fiancé got the single slayburger (you can do double patty) and a side of cheese curds. If you love cheese and cheese curds, the omni is for you. I'm super stuffed from our delicious burgers and loved how chill the spot was. The person at the cash register was super sweet and helpful. They were kind in explaining their loyalty program to me. Even though it seems more people do takeout here, you are able to eat the burger on a bench like us no problem. Your 2025 resolution should be to eat here. read more

Sooo, I will say that for my meal the other day... I had high expectations for, but it was something I could have made at home and would have been satisfied. When my husband and I got home, the inside of the bag had waffle fries everywhere (like 5 guys). Our two sandwiches were wrapped perfectly but there was no labels to know what was what. I ordered 'The Leviathan' fish sandwich, without tartar sauce.The sandwich has two haddock fish fillets with lettuce, that's it because I took the tartar sauce out. Im wondering how come the attendant didnt suggest other Condiments or something before we left the restaurant. Thus I had to improvise in my kitchen with some Hotsauce. Mind you, the fillets looked like the Gorton's fish portions that I get from the grocery store and both had areas where it wasn't cooked thoroughly for the batter to crisp up all the way. So basically I didnt finish the sandwich, and ate most of the waffle fries. read more

Nothing beats a smash burger and this is easily one of the best in town. It's not too salty, it's perfectly smashed, and just the right size. They use a pretty good bread, and the pickles and house sauce make a great combo. Only thing I do differently is order extra lettuce... I like a little crunch on my burger. The service is good and the space is super cute inside while you wait for your order. The wait isn't long at all, and the staff is sweet. read more

We ordered the onion rings, slay fries, bacon burger, and turkey burger. Everything was freshly prepared, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time despite the busy crowd. The burgers were flavorful and very filling -- even a single patty would be large enough to split with someone else. Overall, the food was satisfying, the portions generous, and I would absolutely return. read more

Slay burger was pretty full when I came in during a lunch rush. They do their best to provide ample seating space with the small waiting space. There's no where to really eat inside or outside so be prepared to take your food to go. Staff was quick to take the order and had my food in less than 10 minutes. Only downside was the door was being opened constantly so there were a few flies in the front windows and around the space but as far as I could see they weren't really anywhere near the food. The food was amazinggg! The waffle fries are so crispy and flavorful and they give a good portion! I got the Omni burger and it was delicious. Burger was cooked well, and had so much flavor. I would recommend checking this place out! read more

Will come back again. read more

I wish I had gotten the opportunity to review Slay Burgers when they were a 5/5, which was not that long ago. I never minded the long-ish waiting times or the lack of in-house dining. But something changed recently, and now they use premade Burger King style onion rings with no actual onion slice in them rather than their old beer battered rings, and the burgers have fallen off dramatically in quality. I can't confirm, but my sense of it is that they've lost their former cook/chef. read more

The burgers were very dry almost inedible, which was quite the disappointment. We order the Big Ounce and a turkey burger. Fries and onions ring were just ok. I probably won't be back, but I was really wanting this place to be much better than it actually was. It felt like this place was being overhyped. read more

Someone said this was their favorite burger joint in the RVA area, and I can certainly see why. The Slay Burger was the perfect blend of greasy mess with a unique flavor profile and the perfect smash-burger texture. The cheese curds had just the right amount of crunch and the portion was overly generous. Affordable too and attentive service. What more can you ask for? Oh - and check out all the comics on the wall, they are PRICELESS! read more

Very good smash burger, service is good (for a take out restaurant). Parking is problematic so plan accordingly

Dang shame. Went here after seeing it on Insta. Probably 20 flies attacking you inside while waiting for food. Charged $33 for double slay burger combo with cheese waffle fries. Hot honey chicken sandwich combo with waffle fries. They forgot the waffle fries for the chicken sandwich, the pepper jack cheese was forgotten. The burger didn't have onions, just lettuce and pickles and didn't see or taste the slay sauce. The cheese on the waffle fries was not even melted. Beware. The food was good too, which is why it's a shame. They didn't get a single thing right on my order and there's nowhere to sit so unless you check your bag at the counter by the time you realize you don't have half the items you ordered it's too late. $33 for terrible quality control is just unacceptable. Shame, has potential to be really great. But they gotta fix the flies and making sure people actually get what they order. Won't be back again. read more

Are there any turkey burger lovers out there? Here is a spot that has gotten it right! I love the seasoning, size and flavor of my burger. I added Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, and little dressing. Since a burger is lonely without onion rings, it made a great addition. The service was great and answered all my problems with a smile. It's a storefront establishment and it's worth standing in line read more

New burger spot in Northside. Very friendly staff. Walk up and place your to go order. No dine in option. Menu is burgers, fries, onion rings, hot dogs. I got the bacon burger, fries and onion rings. They put the fries and onion rings in closed paper boxes, which is not smart, because the steam from the heat makes them soggy by the time you get them home. Even though your food might spill out of the packaging, I highly recommend that they switch to open containers for fries and onion rings. The burger was good, but didn't blow me away. Very filling. I didn't see the combo deals that people have been talking about. Everything I ordered was a la carte. What I paid seemed high for two burgers and two sides. AND the receipt indicated grand opening discounts. Hmmm. I will return and try other items. It's nice to have a burger spot in the neighborhood. read more

Most delicious burgers and fries ever. Keep it up. Love dem smashies they make me happys

I've been twice while visiting my son at VCU. We each got different items each time. Everything was uniformly great. It's a walk up with some seats to wait for your order and all is served to go. The burgers are excellent smash burgers and they offer a bunch of different options. They have non-burger options like fish sandwiches, chicken, or my favorite "The Zzif". It's a thick slice of fried bologna grilled onions, mustard and cheese. It's outstanding. I like a five guys burger so I tend to compare to that. If someone opened a five guys next door to this place, I'd go to Slay Burgers. read more

The first thing I noticed when I walked into this new Brookland Park Ave edition was the amazing artwork and decor! There's a mural of a hamburger defeating cartoon versions of the mascots from Burger King, McDonald's, and Wendy's, which actually made me laugh out loud. Impeccable ambiance. The menu is quite vast and we ordered a slay burger and a spicy chicken sandwich with waffle fries. The person at the cash register was super welcoming and friendly and we were impressed to see that they were definitely cooking things fresh behind the counter. Overall, we loved the food, the vibes, and the service. Will definitely be here again! read more
