    Among the BEST burgers in Manhattan. Dine in with a loved one or grab it to-go with friends and find a nearby stoop. These juicy burgers were never meant to be eaten with utensils, folks.

    I REFUSE to eat anything else today for fear it will ruin the aftertaste! Simply amazing burger & fries, delivered fast and hot. Nothing fancy, handmade, juicy beef burger done RIGHT! I'll be back!

    Pubs don't come more oldschool, and some peg Mellon's burger as the best in the city. It's not, but along with Mellon's crispy waffle-cut fries and cold beer, it is a damn good show. [Eater 38 Member] Mehr erfahren

    Yes it's the best cheeseburger in the world! The question is; will you order a #bftt (burger for the table)? If you are with a group, do the right thing and get an extra making you the table hero!

    When dining solo, sit at J.G. Melon’s wooden bar and enjoy an outstanding hamburger and blood mary. J.G. is cozy and casual, and no one here will bother you. Mehr erfahren

    Legendary nyc spot famous for the burgers. Great og staff and all but it’s kinda jus ok tbh. Super basic menu. Fries hit surprisingly. Burger 1-2 stages overdone. Salads v basic

    Wasn’t ranked the #1 burger joint in the UES for nothing! Amazing bacon cheeseburger, cooked to perfection! Turkey club sandwich, sliced chicken salad and their sirloin steak! A must in NYC

    A rare burger, recommended, came out in 2 minutes during a recent visit, boasting a charred exterior and a silky, crimson interior. Add bacon and American cheese, then season with a lot of salt. Mehr erfahren

    Of the places in the city that do a great classic burger (high on quality basics, low on pretentiousness and distracting novelty), this has got to be among the top few. Meaty, cheesy, good.

    One of the best burger places on the east side. I always bring out of towners here. So yummy their burgers.. It just prepared simply and that's some time the best way to do it.

    Serving burgers in its narrow space since '74. A perfect bar burger and highly recommended cottage fries & bowl of chili. Think of it as a living relic, a throwback to cheap eats meets preppy ideals.

    Very similar to Corner Bistro in terms of overall aesthetic. Very similar burger too. Loved it. Cottage fries are a unique twist. I like the bacon at Corner Bistro more. But other than that, A+.

    This place is a neighborhood staple. Don't forget to order a side of their French fries and be sure to bring cash because they don't accept credit cards. Sit at the bar and eat if you're in a hurry!

    Since 1972, this kitschy Upper East Side burger joint has been sating meatheads. The cheeseburger is a bite of a bygone era, simple griddled on a flattop and medium-rare juicy. (Critics' Pick) Mehr erfahren

    Posiblemente la mejor hamburguesa con bacon y queso que he probado en Manhattan. Acompañarla de patatas y bloody mary.

    The best nights are Sunday and Thursday nights. Get there at 6:30pm and have a bloody Bull while you wait. Bobby is the gate keeper for seating, make him your best friend and he will take care of you.

    Classic old-style burger. They didn’t put lettuce and tomatoes but after a few bites, it gets along with onions and pickled cucumbers.Cottage fries are also good. But it’s a cash-only restaurant.

    Much better than the west village location (this one in UES is the original). Get the cheeseburger and fries - also sit at the bar and meet Bobby, the bartender, he is the best!

    Decent burger. Definitely not amazing. It’s loud & the staff scream and laugh at the regulars. Depends what you want. If it’s an amazing burger - not the place. If it’s a local place with history 👍🏼

    A must try NYC burger. A classic no frills burger done right. Try the crispy and airy cottage fries and a slice of apple pie.

    Free up your drinking hand since you don't need to look at the menu. Cheeseburger (medium) cottage fries, and a Bloody Mary. This is the most repeatable burger in New York. A proud institution.

    This place is classic. Nothing like a griddled burger, and theirs is perfectly crispy with a juicy center. Order the bacon cheeseburger and a side of cottage potatoes.

    The best cheeseburger in New York City. You get pickes and onions on the side, ask for tomatoes and lettuce as well. Get cottage fries and a Sam Adams on tap for $5. Can't get any better than that!

    Best burger joint in town. Do not miss the chilly cup. Just as fantastic. Drown it down with an Amstel Light followed by a Bloody Mary and you’re all set

    In a sea of thick unappealing uptown burgers, JG Melon is a standout. They've been serving the same solid burger since I started coming here in college many years ago. Also, pie!

    This burger is pure perfection. The meat is perfectly minced, juicy and has a unique flavor, with a crispy bacon that dream. Love the cheese and bread. Rating: 10 out of 10

    An upper east side staple. Old school, no attitude spot. Great drinks and a kick ass burger done right. Cooked perfect, with a crunch on the outside, definitely in the top 3.

    Really nice burger and we didn't have to wait long. On the downside, the place is quite packed and it's a matter of luck where you will be seated.

    Do like the locals and get the burger. Cheeseburger is a classic. And get their weird beef broth Bloody Mary variant too. Nice little buzz for the weekend afternoon

    Nothing satisfies a yearning for "old New York" like a trip uptown to J.G. Melon, where you can find the platonic ideal of a bar burger: thick & beefy, with a toasted bun & blanket of American cheese. Mehr erfahren

    Seriously one of the best, no-frills burger I've ever had. This old school pub does it right. Sit at the bar when Mr David Parine is working and buy him a mind-eraser.

    great burgers! i suggest fries and chili as a starter or even to complement your burger. scoop the chili with the fries. heck even put some chili on your hamburger.

    Burger, cottage fries, chili, and apple or key lime pie. Get that pie. Key lime fab apparently. Expect a wait of an hour. Colleen & Paul agree on this.
