The food is good, but be prepared to wait awhile if they're busy. Waited 30 minutes yesterday to get a burger and fries, when I thought this place was somewhat quicker. More

Co-workers of mine recommended we all go and I was not satisfied at all. Too greasy and really did not have a good flavor to the burger. This is probably my first negative review for a restaurant. Suffice to say, I won't be going back anytime soon here. More

Carytown Burgers is a creative burger joint that is pretty inexpensive for what is offered. They have crazy burgers with countless toppings including salsa, avocado, onion rings, barbecue sauce, and on and on. The drinks are huge and endless refills. We also got a veggie burger that was phenomenal and a chicken sandwich that was just as good as the... More

Carytown Burgers & Fries boasts down home good cooking with flavors from all over the country. They have everything from a chili cheese burger to a California inspired burger with avocado and veggies. The burgers are great, fries even better and Carytown is a sweet place to hangout! Be warned, however, service can take a while. More

The burgers here are amazing; they are always at or near the top in any "best burger in Richmond" poll. I used to lived in the Museum District, so I would eat here several times a week. South of the Border, Greek Geek, and the Rodeo are my favorites. They give generous servings on the fires. The outdoor seating overlooks... More

No, Carytown Burgers and Fries does not serve the best burger I've ever had. However, it is the best I've been able to find in the Richmond area. They have a very extensive menu of burgers and sandwiches, from plain cheeseburgers to gourmet burgers with 5 patties (the "Quinto"). I like the Rodeo burger with the bbq sauce and fried... More

I always try and take people here for lunch when they are in from out of town. The service is not very good and always slow, but I love the burgers! They have good hot dogs and onion rings as well. The bacon cheddar ranch is my favorite burger. More
