Incredible Burger Experience!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely incredible. I think the Laos Burger was the best burger I have ever had. The place is a little small, so it may be an issue to get a seat. Honestly, the burger looked a little larger on the menu, but it slapped so hard! The burger was a little heavy and greasy, but it was very filling, and the greasiness was not a bad thing for me at all. The food was a 5/5, atmosphere was a 5/5, and service was a 5/5.

Best Smash Burger in Seattle!
My experience at this restaurant was centered around their smash burgers, which I found to be the best I've had in Seattle. They were genuinely smashed and crispy. I tried the Jaew Bong Cheeseburger for $6 during happy hour, and it was a great size. Adding fries for $3. 5 made it a complete and filling meal for just $10. I also enjoyed the Sweet Baby Clay burger for $7 during happy hour, particularly the onion rings within it. While I wasn't a huge fan of the sharp taste of the jaew bong, the burger was otherwise good. The space is very small, humorously described as a garden shed. The service was fine but very minimal.

Perfect Neighborhood Spot!
I absolutely LOOOOVE this place! I've been here about 10 times in the last 6 months and I take everyone here. As someone who works in fine dining, people are usually surprised how much I love this place. It's a perfect neighborhood spot. I 10/10 recommend it.

Absolutely Delicious SE Asian Burgers!
I picked up burgers and fries on a Tuesday at lunchtime. I had the Lao Burger on a GF bun (I ordered mine with no pork), and it was SO GOOD! My husband and parents absolutely LOVED their Deluxe smash burgers, cheeseburger, and fries. My husband said they were the best fries he’s EVER had! The Jaew Bong Mayo is INSANE – spicy, limey, creamy… the most delicious SE Asian burger sauce of your dreams. It was an absolute pleasure to order over the phone, with lovely, friendly customer service! We will definitely be back! 10/10 recommend.

Expensive Burger, Nice Coleslaw
My experience at this restaurant involved a very expensive burger and cafeteria-style service. However, the coleslaw was very nice. The reviewer's son enjoyed a plain kid's cheeseburger. Parking is available as free street parking, though finding a spot can be difficult. The price per person is between $50–100. The atmosphere received a rating of 4, while service was rated 2. Wheelchair accessibility is not easy due to a heavy door. The noise level is loud, but conversation is still possible. Food received a rating of 4.

Just Okay, Worth One Try
I decided to give this place a try after reading some reviews, but honestly, I thought it was just okay. It was pretty basic and nothing really stood out. I’m not sure I’d go back on my own, but if I were with a group and people wanted to try it, I wouldn’t be opposed. It’s definitely worth a one-time visit just to see if it’s your thing. Parking can be difficult since it’s all street parking on Cap Hill.

Best Burger and Cookie Ever!
I came into town for an appointment and stopped by Ox Burger on a whim. It was the best decision ever! I had a bacon burger and a chicken sandwich. Both were delicious, served hot and fresh. To top off the meal, we got a warm fresh house-made chocolate chip cookie! It was the best part of the meal. I highly recommend you don't skip a cookie!

Great Happy Hour and Burgers!
In the heart of Capitol Hill, I had a fantastic experience. The happy hour menu deals were some of the best I've seen. I tried the burger and fries for around $10, and the quality was excellent. If you're feeling like a big spender, I highly recommend the Lao burger; it's easily a top 5 burger in my opinion. The staff was also super chill and cool.
