“ GLUTEN-FREE! PLANT-BASED! The food is delicious, the chef seems very passionate about his craft, very accomodating for my Gluten sensitivity, plus being vegetarian. It is very difficult for me to find food this amazing and that accomodates my needs!. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich at said it was delicious, she doesn't do spicy and they were able to accommodate that accorsingly and she said it was unexpectedly delicious!!. The french fries were also unforgettable, I would consider coming here just for the fries!. I would give 10 stars if I could!! ”
“ I had the Fridge, and it is up there with one of the more memorable burgers I’ve had! The beef and sausage patties along with the “door” sauce had an incredible savory, salty, smoky, and some tangy sweetness as well. I can’t tell you enough about the dill ranch. It is unique and tastes a lot like dill but if you like dill and you like ranch, then this is something you will want to try. It’s not overpowering by any means, just a robust dill flavor. The potato wedges and chicken tenders were a nice surprise. They are not your average chicken tender or potato wedge. The wedges were fried to dare I say perfection. Crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. I will definitely be back in the next time I’m in Orlando. Big fan of the honey mustard as well! The staff was so welcoming and friendly! ”
“ Great local casual spot with friendly staff. You can order food and sit outside or inside the bar next door. I got the classic burger (all the way), it was DELICIOUS! I also enjoyed their fries which were unique and tasty. The area is darling and very welcoming, felt inclusive and family/neighbor like. Thanks, fam!! ”
“ The Classic is truly a classic. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. I’ve had 100s of burgers around this country, but never thought I would find the best one at Thornton Park in Orlando. The meat was extremely well seasoned. It had a very unique taste. Plus, the fries that came with it were fantastic. I’ve never seen fries cut like this, and they stood out. I also got the chicken sandwich that was different than any other chicken sandwich; crispy and crunchy with a tasty layer of BBQ sauce. We also got the crawfish fritters beignets that were very good, but didn’t compare to the other two items. We got to speak with the chef and you can tell he is really proud of his work. The man was extremely friendly. I highly recommend visiting! ”
“ Wow, perfect addition to the neighborhood and Burtons. Great selection of shareable items like the sausage platter and the amazing onion-strings to solid entree. The bloody-Mary steak sandwich is as unique as it is delicious. My wife got their Bratty-melt and it was also great. The chef also gave us a sample of a new sandwich/item that is like an adult micrib (but made with real ingredients) and it was so spot on - I can’t wait to see it on the menu!!! I also really like the thick-cut chips and their fries are great. I love when it’s hard to decide what to order because everything sounds so good - now I can go back again and again! Love it. ”
“ This is the spot if you want no fuss, good food, and want to support local businesses. We’ve love getting our breakfast burritos and our family loves the burgers and the home fries are the best. We also tried their patty sandwich with caramelized onions - so good. Kind people work here and we love this neighborhood place. Definitely check it out. It’s all outdoor seating which is shaded. ”
“ I love going here when I’m going to have a drink at Burton’s! The food is great and the service is great too. Pricing not to expensive for what you are getting. My favorite is the wings plain with a side of ranch and bbq sauce. I’d definitely recommend to you if you’re having some late night food needs. ”
“ Love this little spot! The real star of their menu is the weekend breakfast burrito. My husband and I loving taking a walk to the classic and splitting the breakfast burrito and get a side of the lighting sauce! The absolute best garlic lemon aioli. It also comes with a delish salsa and fresh cut fries. It’s our fav weekend breakfast! ”
