    Our bartender was so sweet!!! I am so annoyed at myself for forgetting her name!! She invited us to the bar, we ate delicious burgers!! The drinks she made tasted great!! And she had answers to whatever questions we asked. Overall was so great!!! And I cannot wait to visit Boston again!

    Ok, I found myself in the area and laughingly said hey why not try this gimmick place. Well after I got my Monster burger, I can honestly say this place is not a gimmick. Honestly the single Monster burger looked small, but I am writing this and full. It was shocking to find the food want that much more than Five Guys, so pretty reasonably priced.

    Went in late (~10pm) after a Red sox game and was seated immediately. We ordered cheese burgers and a salmon salad with sweet potatoe tater tots. Portion sizes were small to medium but everything tasted good (though salmon was a bit dry). The service attentive, prompt and friendly. Enjoyed the decor showing the Walhburgs cinema/media history/stories. Definitely a solid buger joint to swing by especially on a late night with few options.

    Honorable mention update 7-18-23: The vegetables that were in the burgers were very fresh, crispy and delicious. Usually, the vegetables that are placed upon the hamburgers are soft, soggy and mushy. Not at Wahlburgers! I was very impressed with the freshness of their vegetables, particularly the onions and I will be ordering takeout again later this week. .......Delicious hamburgers!! The double cheeseburgers are outstanding. Good quality beef. Perfectly cooked. The fries and thick shakes are equally delicious! The prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend Wahlburgers.

    Checked off my bucket list and finally made it to my boys spot. Mark & brothers why weren’t you here to greet me? Love the burgers and Caesar salad. Tim our server was so friendly and hospitable. Hope to come back in the summer. Fire pit was so cozy today for the cold weather we had :D

    Wow this place was so good. I know it's kind of a chain now but this location was so good. My son and I came in two hours before a Sox game and we got right in. Our server was so nice and sweet. My son got the regular burger but I got Jenns chicken sandwich and it was amazing. I can't say enough about how good everything was. Highly Recommend

    At Wahlburgers on Brookline Avenue in Boston, a customer can order at the cashier and bring the food to the front counter facing the street to eat or sit at one of the tables where a server takes the order. I chose the former. I had the open-faced Sloppy Joe Burger with fried onions and pickles. Very delicious. I checked the menu today and I didn't see it there anymore.

    As always, another fabulous Wahlburgers experience. Our food was amazing, the hostess was such a nice young lady...chatting with us while we waited to be seated. Melissa our server, an OG Blockhead was very attentive and you can tell she loves her job. Bonus, during this visit we got to see Paul. He really is the MVP!!! He was clearing and cleaning tables, delivering food...heck he even was mopping the floor. With all that being said he still took a moment so my kids could get an updated picture. Thank you for another great Wahlburgers experience 💚💚. Until next time.....

    Update: Server and manager were friendly. Both Impossible and double-decker burgers were quite tasty. Got an egg on top which was a perfect addition. Blistered tomatoes in side salad were gross. Had a free burger coupon and their system took off the cheapest item on our tab. Waste of $2.50 since I should have asked for a separate check. Inanity/cheapness reigns. Old review: Salmon and corn salad was actually pretty good. Would have been nice to have had a little bit healthier mix of greens, but no biggie. Truffle fries were decent; however, they came out cold and were kind of a rip at nine dollars for what was equivalent to not much more than a small from McDonald’s. My boyfriend enjoyed his impossible burger. Service was pretty slow, which was rather disappointing given that we told our waitress we were trying to make a movie when we initially sat down.

    Went in with a group of 6. We read the menu and thought we were ready. As we made our order our server asked to try something else, not in a bad way, but wipes out a flyer with items that hadn't made it on the current menu. Turns out.....YES! The Monster Burger line was excellent. We also got the fried pickles and truffle fries that were all amazing. Fish sandwich was hearty and moist. My only gripe was where we were sat. We asked to be sat inside and we were....right in front of the open door. Asked if they would close the door and it took a little time to get the key. But that is the ONLY reason I give 4 stars.

    Visited Boston and obviously needed to stop in here to check it out. We went a decent time after a Red Sox game so it wasn't too crowded. We were doing dine in and we were directed right away by the guys in the front to the hostess around the corner. The hostess that night was very impersonal, not necessarily rude but just like she had better places to be. The waiter was much better, he was very genuine and easy going. Tater tots were interesting and definitely not a common find. Burger was good but I've had better but at the price point, it's still good value. Ordered the adult birthday cake shake and it was pretty good. Considering the price, waiter, and taters I'd definitely go back if I were to visit again.

    We came on a Thursday before going to a Red Sox game. There was no wait and the host sat us right away. The only issue was as he greeted us, he coughed right in our faces without covering his mouth and proceeded to tell us he was not sick. The service was great and our food was out quick. Everything tasted good. The mac & cheese was a bit cold but still good. The best part was Thursdays is kids eat free.

    This is a great place to get a bite after a Red Sox game. My daughter and I both had burgers and they were delicious; actually, I may enjoy the tater tots more than anything! The restaurant itself is clean and well-maintained and the staff is friendly and courteous. I will definitely return!

    We ordered Our burgers, truffle fries, and spinich parmesan wahlbites. The burgers were really good, super moist, and are all served medium. The spinich parm bites and fries were were very tasty the dips were great. Burgers don't come with and sides, it's à la carte. The staff were very friendly. Definitely a must try

    Excellent location close to Fenway. Quick service upfront just like you would order from fast food joint. Or dine in at the back with full bar. Prices are great and the flavors of the burgers and truffle fries are out if this world! The coffee Martini is stupendous! Rich creamy yet light in consistency so easy to drink. The burgers are cooked right as ordered. The history of this humble family shows how dreams do come true if you work hard and believe in yourself! Will definitely come back and highly recommend to others.

  • 4/5 BILLY Fandrey (Fried the Google g. 1 year ago on Google
    Okay this is Fried, your Google guide and I just stop by The Wahlberg's restaurant and I had a great experience. When you first walk in this is the to go Zone. This front part is for people that want to just get their pizza and go or eat real quick. Then you walk around to the back where you find the bar and restaurant. Plenty of TVs with a nice layout. There's even a nice area in the back like a patio area with a nice little fire pit. And their service is phenomenal. I know at least three to four different employees checked up on me to see if I was okay. And those fried pickles are off the chain. You heard me!

    Overall it was really good vibe. This location is not too far from fenway in Boston. It made the price just right to afford chicken sandwich, fries and shake. The service was overall good. The fries were salty with a great crunch. The fried chicken sandwich felt really heavy. It had a great taste; but I couldnt finish the middle. The strawberry shake was probably my favorite thing.

  • 5/5 Trey W. 9 months ago on Google
    Best place is Boston! Our flight was canceled home so we decided to check out Wahlburgers! They were so kind and hooked us up with some great Food and fantastic service from Tim!! The Sweet Glaze Chili Chicken Tenders and the Our Burger was amazing! Thank you Wahlburgers!

  • 5/5 Karen C. 10 months ago on Google
    Looking for a great quick bite to eat before, after, or in place of a Red Sox game this is your place! Great drinks and good food! The servers are really fun!

  • 4/5 Alex 7 months ago on Google
    I was surprised how good their burger actually is. Crispy outside, still pink and juicy inside. Enjoyed every bite, and I dont say that lightly. Just dont order takeout through Google Maps, it doesnt seem to work. I ended up just going there and ordering at the till. They make them really quick.

  • 4/5 Dave X. 6 months ago on Google
    The place is normal - people are great - the cashier was awesome- food was good - I wouldn’t say it’s over the top but it’s not bad - the melt burger is 7.5/10 - fries 6/10 - Mac n cheese 8/10 - shake 8/10.

  • 5/5 Joann S. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is yummy. Easily accommodated our party of 7. Service is friendly and attentive. We had several of the burgers, impossible burger, chicken sandwich, several appetizers, and several sides we shared. Plus, non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks. Everyone enjoyed the food, drinks, and easy going, clean atmosphere. Highly recommend to go and try them out! A bonus for us was to meet Paul W, the owner. He is such a sweet gentleman and genuinely appreciated our patronage and spent time speaking to us and other tables. Positive experience.

    I kept this place on my list for last day of our holiday, the food was served cold, everything was cold fries, onion rings, truffle fries and burgers. We had the impossible burger “marks choice”. Service was good although it took for ever to get the drinks and it was served by the time we finished eating. I love the vibe of the place and the cleanliness of it but food was absolutely not worth the money.

    This whole review was almost gonna be a bust but because of the great food and great customer service from Allie… it got average!! We walked into the establishment, excited!! The group I was with, we’re all fans of Alma, Donnie, Paul & Mark.. so we were walking around the restaurant looking like tourist!! We walk over to the bar area where there is absolutely no one sitting at… we’re discussing if we wanna just eat at the bar, etc etc… and rudely the man behind the bar (found out later his name was Tim..Says in a very unfriendly manner “the sign says wait to be seated “…. I turn around to address him… but before I could… here comes Allie… in the most professional manner she says “you ladies are more than welcome to sit in my section and you will receive great service “…. AND SHE WAS NOT LYING!! Allie was amazing!!!! She answered all of our questions, she didn’t make us feel rushed, she explained the house sauces” the food came out and it was everything that we wanted!!! Thank you Allie for turning this almost bad situation into an amazing experience… and then Tim wants to speak 🗣️ when we’re leaving…”good night and happy holidays “ lol.. he’s a clown.. first impressions are everything

    BBQ Burger without bun was not cooked to my request/liking. Server quickly returned with a replacement that was perfect! Truffle fries and spinach parm bites on the side. Super friendly staff!

  • 5/5 Courtney B. 2 years ago on Google
    This was our first time trying Walhburgers and being in the beautiful state of Massachusetts! We traveled from Ohio and I must say the food was absolutely delicious and the staff was beyond nice💜 can't wait to come back and visit again!

  • 5/5 Chad C. 2 years ago on Google
    Had to check it out because we watched a TV series. Our visit to the Boston area had to include one of the famous landmarks that we watched on television. Had a very enjoyable staff experience and the food was amazing. I need to say they don’t serve small portions so be careful while ordering. My eyes were bigger than my stomach that day and enjoyed the great spirits. if I lived here it would be a frequent stop for sure.

  • 4/5 Michael L. 2 years ago on Google
    Great location just down the street from Fenway Park. Can order to go or pop to dine in. We got there about 90 minutes before the gates opened for the game and had a 20 min wait to go, but the closer to the game the more time is needed to get your food. Burger was excellent, the fries were average and the truffle tots were awesome! Friendly staff and quick service, now to decide which tee shirt I should buy!
