My partner and I dropped in at project burger one night when we were craving a good burger. The owner was very welcoming and quickly took our order, he was also cooking and serving the food all by himself which I thought was very impressive. I ordered the classic grass fed burger and my partner tried the mixed burger with lamb and beef. The burgers were so big, I had to give the rest of mine to my partner. The buns were thick enough not to fall apart while eating the burger and they had a nice crunch to them. My favorite part was the sauce that came with the burgers it was so yummy! We also ordered a basket of fries to share and the portion was very large for those as well. I feel like we definitely got our money's worth and left feeling very full. We will definitely be coming back very soon!
This is the most underrated burger spot in the East Bay. There's a bar and beer, but the burgers are amazing. I've had almost every one, and the best burger you'll ever have without bacon or cheese is the Kafta burger. Custom, wagyu, California, Bacon & Blue cheese, and even the fries regular or sweet potatoes fries. Great spot to have friends and enjoy great beer and a huge burger.
I found out about Project Burger from a fellow yelper. The first time I was there was last Saturday, March 23, 2024, after leaving Park Social Cannabis Dispensary. I was hungry and needed to get something to eat. I stopped in at Project Burger. They serve burgers, fries, shakes, malts, fountain sodas and two types of salad. Eats: California burger for 12.95 (excluding tax). For anybody with a hearty appetite, I recommend this burger - thick and humongous. It is a half pound beef pattie with cojita cheese, romaine, spring mix greens, sliced tomatoes, sliced avocados, sliced red onion, house sauce (mild or spicy). The fixings come in a separate tray. A parchment paper is layered between the bun and the beef parties. The burger was bomb-diggity good. It took me almost 45 minutes to finish that burger. So delicious was that burger, I returned three days later to buy two California burgers to go.
Ok, so this place is imperfect. There were a few things on the menu that were unavailable and the service was not particularly fast. Don't go if you're in a hurry. That being said, who I presume was the owner was very personable and doing everything himself. The burger I had was the black and blue and I ordered fries. I prefer my fries a little crispier but they were still good. But the burger? It was outstanding. Probably one of the better burgers I've had in a long time. Truly delicious! When I took my fries home, the owner expressed happiness. They are handmade and he takes pride in his work. If you don't finish your fries, take them home and crisp them up later in your air fryer if you have one. I will be back.
We had put off going here because Scolari’s is so close, but we’ve been missing out! My burger was ridiculously good, and the side salad has this incredible dressing on it that I could eat with a spoon. It was also the size of a main dish! Amazing. My kids’ food was brought out already cooled down - such a kind, thoughtful touch. We ate every bite. We’ll definitely be back!
So chill and good vibes. These burgers are amazing. We got a regular burger for the kiddo and I ordered the lamb burger (mamas mix) it was so good. Juicy and all the flavors you can taste from the meat to all the condiments, to the sauces. So good!!! Highly recommend
Okay, I'm a burger enthusiast. A serious one, who's guilty of working a burger pop-up on the side. So, trust me when I say that I know my burgers. Yesterday, I visited this local joint with my girlfriend and our fur baby (yes, they're dog-friendly - outside seating for the win!), and it was nothing short of delicious. Now, as a burger-aficionado, my order was a no-brainer: a grass-fed burger with that classic American cheese, hand-cut fries, and a fountain drink made with locally-sourced Alameda sodas. Remember, folks, a real cheeseburger's charm lies in that perfectly melted American cheese! Here's where it gets impressive: the one-person army – the cashier doubling up as the chef. And, no, he wasn't just a stand-in; he was genuinely kind and helpful. Kudos to you, sir! The burger was a masterpiece! Picture it: the buns, toasted to perfection, offered a slight crunch that contrasted well with the juicy, medium-rare patty. The toppings were fresh, and the house sauce – oh, the house sauce! It was flavorful, perfectly balanced, and did not overpower the burger's essence. And the cheese, it was beautifully melted, enhancing the rich beefy goodness. I must say, it wasn't just a burger; it was well-crafted with balanced flavors and textures. Each bite was delicious, echoing the care and technique that went into its creation. I'm already craving it again. The fries were also yummy too, and the secret? They're brined! I'm already planning my next visit, intrigued by the Kobe burger on the menu. If your heart (or stomach) is craving a great burger, I couldn't recommend this place enough. It's not just the food; it's the whole experience that leaves you wanting more. So, grab your favorite people (and furry friends), and head over for a night of yummy burgers!
Hands down this is the best burger in the Bay. I stumbled across Project Burger in 2019, and have never been disappointed. The 1/2lb, grass-fed beef patty is cooked to order and is on point every.single.time. The fries are fantastic, with the right ratio of crisp outside to soft inside. Husam, owner and primary chef, is the best. He knows his regulars’ and semi-regular customers orders. my order even after leaving the Bay for several years. How this place isn’t slammed every night confuses me every time I go. Which is to say eat well and support an awesome local business owner.
