Had a great experience at Only Burger. My wife is extremely picky about food but she loves this place. I had the Carolina Burger minus the onion and it was very good. Hamburger is definitely fresh and cooked to order. It was juicy and very tasty. Order time to table was good considering everything is made at order. Fries for me were just average. They are made from fresh cut potatos but I think I received the leftover cuts. Very small, tiny pieces. The seasoning was good. I would like to see a larger cut fry like Five Guys. However, the thing that impressed me most was that a Durham Fire Department crew had just ordered and were probably just ready to get their food and then received a call. The guys at the Grill held their orders and it appeared they recooked some of their food when they returned. Now that shows me the store manager has character. I would go back just because of that single act of kindness. Restaurant was very clean as were the bathrooms. Kind of neat atmosphere keeping up with the theme of Tobacco Road though it may not technically be a part of it. Maybe a little pricey but worth it. If you get a chance its worth checking out.

Food truck rodeos and Only Burgers usual Wednesday visit to NCSU are really the only times I get to indulge in Only Burger yumminess. At the end of Durham Bulls baseball season, I noticed that Only Burger had set up shop right there at the ball park. Home Run!!! I couldnt wait for next baseball season. Fast forward to this past Saturday and I find myself at the American Tobacco Campus for a senior photo shoot. Lunch at Only Burger was definitely in order. My daughter and I did a sampler of Only Burger fare. Since we dont get it that often, we had to try a little of this and a little of that. Sliders did the trick: Beef Slider, Fried Green Tomato & Pimento Cheese Slider, Lamb Slider, order of Fried Pickles, and 2 Mash sodas. Only Burger did not disappoint. The Beef Slider was juicy. The Fried Green Tomato Slider was wonderful in all its southern yumminess and the Fried Pickles were thick, crispy and flavorful. I cant wait for baseball season to officially start so that I have a reason to go again.

Excellent burgers and fries, and the staff is always friendly. The best burgers in Durham, in my opinion. Having tried all their specialty burgers, I would recommend the breakfast burger (pimento cheese, fried egg, and fried green tomatoes) and the Greek (lamb patty with feta, tzatziki, and olive tapenade), but literally every burger Ive had here has been delicious, so you truly cant go wrong. I love that they can accommodate a wide variety of dietary preferences by making most of their patties (beef, turkey, lamb, veggie) in-house. They also have Boca patties, so vegetarians have more than one option! They also have malt vinegar to go on the fries, and while thats not a necessity, it makes a difference for me.

Great burger place! Only Burger started as a food truck and its overnight success initiated the succession of its two locations. Although this is the most recent location, it does not lack in quality at all. Having fritos on your burger is actually amazing! Would recommend! The customer service is superb. Bathrooms are kept sparkle clean! Parking can be a pain sometimes, but there are spots at the East Deck behind it. Be aware for baseball games and events at the DPAC (performing arts center), as that will cause a lot of traffic in this area and at Only Burger. Would highly recommend!

I work on American Tobacco at a company called Shoeboxed and I come here about twice a week to get my grilled cheese & small fry fix, or I get onion rings. Staff is super friendly and I have never had a problem with them. Wait times can be a little long during peak hours so I suggest coming here later in the afternoon or early evenings to avoid the crowd. Awesome restaurant and a great value for the money!! Most of my coworkers also come here to eat. They need to open more Only Burgers in the Triangle! :)

Les meilleurs hamburgers en ville. Endroit pas prétentieux du tout, mais avec un espace terrasse sympa et diverses configurations pour sassoir à lintérieur. Généralement plutôt tranquille.

Good food, clean business, nice staff, decent atmosphere, nice local. Parking on the street is somewhat hit or miss, but there is a garage around the corner. Some local shops peppered around the area, and it is not a long walk from the downtown area anyway (good way to walk off that awesome burger you will be chowing down on.)

Want a relatively quick, well cooked burger in one of a variety of styles, maybe a generous order of fries, and something from the soda fountain? They have that here. The process is obvious, the staff is efficient, and the crowd is pretty social. I especially like the bleu cheese burger, as the Danish bleu they use is nice.

Been here twice. I ordered the Texan without the pickled jalapenos both times. It was great the first time. The second time they forgot to take the jalapenos off and Im so glad they did. I never thought Id like jalapenos on my burger but OMG is it great! Love this place!

Got the sliders today, beef and turkey, with fries. Only Burgers makes great food. A big selection to customize your burger. Too many choices of drinks to list. Seat inside or outside. Plenty of seating. Service is fast. A baseball throw from the Durham Bulls stadium.

Working in the American Tobacco Campus, Only Burger is easily one of the better lunch spots. Great burgers with my favorite being the Greek burger. Sides are also pretty good across the board, with the onion rings having a special place in my stomach.

Drool-worthy burgers, these are a serious treat. Ive been a huge fan of the food truck for years and was so excited to visit the the brick-and-mortar location for the first time recently. It has convenient parking and fast service.

My favorite restaurant in the American Tobacco Campus Well known for their burgers, they also serve a surprisingly affordable breakfast. Try the brisket hashbrowns with mushrooms and peppers! Its as delicious as it sounds

They have turkey burger and veggie burger options. The shoe string fries are tasty. The onion rings didnt taste seasoned and were very crunchy. The cherry lime craft soda was great without that artificial syrup taste.

My friends and I come here every week. The burgers are irresistable and great!!! :) The managers and employees that work there are really nice. This is easily my favorite spot to eat after having class.

I enjoyed my veggie burger and appreciate that it is available! This spot is pretty cool. Nice staff, clean, ample seating . Street parking is limited. There are a few parking decks in the area.

Delicious! Great place to stop for a freshly grilled, made to order burger on your way to a DPAC show! The lamb burger is also terrific! Also has outside seating for enjoying lovely NC evenings!

Great Breakfast, I always get the spinach and feta with light egg whites, 2 slices of bacon and two strips of bacon. Perfect Breakfast. I think they call it the Thomas
