Worth the wait! I love their original burger - cooked perfectly! Obviously their milkshakes are the main attraction. I loved the cookies and cream shake!

The milkshakes here are insane!! so we got the cookie shake and the sour power and both were super delicious and super sweet. My sweet tooth was definitely satisfied 😊

A top 5 NYC burger. Standouts: The Texan with with crispy onion and bacon, and the Greg Norman with wagyu beef. Huge tasty milkshakes. Great draft beers, too.

The Texan, a BBQ cheeseburger topped with an onion ring, is the perfect balance of savory and sweet. There's not too much BBQ sauce on the patty, but plenty on the side if you want more. Read more

The classic burger is great, but we’re more about “the Mexican”: a chorizo burger with jack cheese, pickled jalapeños and chipotle mayo. Followed by a decadently thick milkshake, of course. Read more

First of all the burgers are great and heathy as far as burgers go. Produce is fresh, onion rings stellar, excellent sauce selection land the hip hop is legit the best in the city. No lie. A+

The current it-item: MILKSHAKES! These impressive creations are delicious. Plus the overall vibe of the place was incredible, and staff was so friendly! Long wait, but absolutely worth it.
Andreas KleinerMay 14, 2015
Great burger, fries and classic hip hop tunes. Def. a contender for best burger in NYC. Don't forget to tag the restroom!
Alex RainertJune 9, 2015
Best burger I've had in a long time. Great sides & a bunch of beers on tap. Seating is all at the bar which gives it a great old burger joint vibe. Finally, the burger salad will blow your face off.

While everyone else is raving about the ridiculous, over-the-top milkshakes, sink your teeth into the Korean BBQ chicken wings. They are going yo melt your face off, because they are too delicious.

Any of the burgers. I'm personally a fan of the All American, but I've never had a bad burger. Great craft beer selection too. Lots of amazing west-coast beers.
Paola TrabancoMay 19, 2016
You must try the shakes! Don't come here and not try the unique shakes they have. Be advised you will have to wait outside for almost an hour but it's totally worth it.
Elyse EstradaMay 2, 2015
Bar seating only so just come w/ one friend. Get the all American burger, so delish! Def worth the #2 Foursquare ranking for best burger (behind Minetta) protip: ask them to make you cheese fries.
Paul S.December 6, 2020
One of the best cheeseburgers I’ve had in NYC, and I’ve had many! So many places get it wrong. If you like a good cheeseburger, a visit to Black Tap is a must. So good.
Creighton GreenDecember 5, 2016
Gotta try the All American Burger, The Spicy Korean BBQ Wings... and if you can find room, ANY of their insanely decorative and delicious yet pricey shakes.
jasmine jeffersonFebruary 3, 2016
The food is amazing! Makes you want to go to sleep and the milkshakes are to die for. Try and come early they open at 11:30am so the wait isn't as long
Brandon DiazDecember 30, 2016
Yes. The people come for the milkshakes. No doubt, they were amazing. But the burgers are EXCELLENT. Try the Texan Burger with avocado 😍. Well worth the wait!!
Josh TaroliJune 20, 2015
Superb variety of delicious burger! The bison burger comes with fresh mozzarella, rucchola and Parmesan. The Californian one brings a strong blue cheese taste.
Brad KleinMarch 16, 2016
Other tips can tell u about 🍺/🍔/🍨(TLDR: good but not worth 2h+ wait) but what really impressed was awesome staff + casual env. Once inside, u don't feel hurried / easily forget the 30deep queue 😊

This burger joint just took it to the next level with insane milkshake creations nearly a foot tall. These frosted treats come piled with cake, bundles of cotton candy, and mountains of chocolate.
Chad HornerMay 3, 2015
If The Spicy Mexican sounds like something you think you'd enjoy, it is. Add avocado to make it even better! Also, you can mix and match shake flavors - e.g. Nutella Cookies and Cream.
Emiliano ViscarraDecember 28, 2015
Great burgers. They only serve them rare so if you are more into well clocked burgers you will have to say it. Anyway the burgers are huge and with very good flavor.
Gal AmirOctober 20, 2015
Small cozy place with a simple selection of burgers and beers. Friendly staff, great food.. Pretty slow service though. Come before 7pm for the happy hour
.August 24, 2017
I love the presentation of their crazy shakes, very creative. Cotton candy and cookie shakes were really good.
Jeffrey GlueckJanuary 12, 2018
They have a salad version of all American burger for Paleo gluten free types. Pretty yummy. Fries are great. Skip the wings to save room for a shake to split.
Josephine SonApril 3, 2015
Fantastic new burger joint in Soho! Joe Isidori brings his burger magic! I got the lamb burger but need to get back soon to try them all! :-)

I got the Mexican double burger, fries with aioli sauce and a strawberry lemonade. I am satisfied! It was so good I need a nap now! Thank you!
ldAugust 23, 2016
A lot of food, share if you can. Good shakes, avocado burger was good, very Instagram -y. Long lines (3hrs) but worth it imo
Vaidehi KJune 30, 2015
Look past everything on the menu and settle on The Spicy Mexican. A chorizo burger with jack cheese and chipotle mayo. You'll be very happy. It's unbelievable!
Alex KostoulasMarch 6, 2017
The Cheesecake and Brooklyn Blackout blew my mind. Worth the wait coming back soon to try the peanut butter!
Petros AOctober 13, 2016
Great burgers! But the milkshakes... Amazing!! Beware though they are probably too big for one person! 😉
Cole KennedyAugust 7, 2015
They make burgers here. Good burgers. They put other good things on those burgers, like cheese. You should eat these cheeseburgers and probably get a beer, too.
Deven MarteFebruary 15, 2017
I thought the Texan Burger would be greasy- It was not! Incredibly juicy, and the bacon was prime cut! Paired with a super cookies & Cream milkshake 😍😋
Arnaud RéautéNovember 27, 2015
The best burger place in the World. Once you have tried it you can't get rid of it, original burgers all very tasty you can never get bored.
LesYaJanuary 28, 2020
Place is a must to be visited! You have to wait some time to be seated but it worth it. The wings are soooooo delicious and the burgers also.
William NelliganNovember 24, 2015
Big flavor in a small, hole-in-the-wall space. The original burger is fine. The Mexican burger is exceptional. Don't miss the shakes.
Emily KaneSeptember 20, 2015
Worthy of all the hype, good guys making great food. If the counter's full they'll let you drink a beer on the front step while you wait.
Nate BeattyJune 23, 2015
Best bartenders in Soho who are super knowledgable about the drafts. Burgers are dope.
Dalton SpearNovember 7, 2018
Life changing burgers, add an egg and bacon! Or come for a specialty milkshake. I do not recommend getting both
Seline JungOctober 17, 2015
Amazing burgers and just-right fries: not too salty, crispy on the outside and plenty chewy inside. But just know you can get burgers just as good for 50% or less elsewhere.
Jannette GFebruary 16, 2016
Korean bbq was great!some shakes looked better than actually tasted(not bad,but not as fun,textured, nor frozen as i would like).Recommend salty&sweet instead of cookie one(only3cookies in total).
KarinaApril 25, 2015
It was love at first bite. Hands down the best burger I've had in NY! That soft potato bun & crumbling patty, melting in my mouth. Mmmm.
Tom JosephApril 27, 2015
The All-American burger with egg and bacon is excellent. Limited seating (bar only) makes it hard to fit more than 2 together at peak times
Jt OrtizApril 11, 2016
The burgers/ fries/ drinks and especially the Shakes are unbelievable!! It's completely worth the long wait!
jiresellNovember 24, 2016
Great burgers. Worth the line to get in. But the real treat are the milkshakes!
Rasmus OttoNovember 25, 2015
The burger doesn't look much but it's in top3 in my lifetime. And I've had many great burgers
Stephanie CookApril 22, 2017
You come for the milkshakes, you come back for the food! Surprisingly good everything! Worth the wait in the rain!
Kelly WeaverApril 5, 2018
All American Burger and pretty much any burger although the milkshakes steal the show.
NormanMay 25, 2015
Quite possibly the best burger in town. That's all there needs to be said. Now stop reading and try the burger already!!
Daniel Marco FernandezDecember 16, 2016
All American burger is good, but the fries are unbelievable. Share the shakes if you have had dinner before.
