St. Mark's Burgers and Dogs

I walked in on a Saturday afternoon and Philippe was so warm and welcoming during my time there. He took great pride in the quality of his ingredients and his cooking process and it showed in the cheeseburger and disco fries I ordered. Fresh meat, perfectly cooked and wasn’t greasy at all. The onions were crispy and juicy. The disco fries were also piping hot, fresh and equally amazing. He just opened the restaurant recently so he was essentially taking on the work of 4 people while he builds up his staff. He apologized for any delay (even though there was none!) and even gave an extra cheeseburger. As incredible as the food was, this is by far the best EXPERIENCE I have had since living in NYC. His story, his food, his passion and kindness are what makes New York such a special place. I will be coming back to try everything on the menu. The owner deserves all the love and success in the world for his hard work and delicious food. Absolute must visit if you are in the area!!!

Hands down one of the best burgers I’ve ever had—juicy, flavorful, and topped with their signature sauce, pickles, and caramelized onions. The atmosphere was inviting, giving a “lived in” look. It’s clear that the owner is passionate about his business and the food he is cooking- and there is nothing more beautiful than that. Skip the chains like Smashburger and eat locally. This place delivers real, homemade flavor with heart and passion behind every bite

Normally I could care less about reviewing restaurants whether or not their great or awful but if you love burgers or fries or NY or NYers or sincere, genuine people or remembering that your country possesses charm or anything- if you possess a beating heart and a human soul: this is The Spot. Not only legit the best burger and fries I've ever eaten, truly, but also the only time I could honestly describe grabbing food after work as a life-affirming experience. The owner is so genuine, so earnest, so lovely- such a real one and truly makes you feel like your best friend's cool dad just made you his favorite dish and wants to make sure that you like it. In a city that can make anyone feel insignificant and invisible at times- finding anyone anywhere that cares more about seeing you enjoy yourself than about taking your money is 1 in 5,000,000,000. Also included a photo to attest to the food itself: I ordered this To Go because I'm notorious for eating like a bird and knew I would only eat 1/2 at most and take the rest home to eat later and I didn't even make it past the counter before I was all but licking the tinfoil clean.. so, so, so good.

This is a seriously awesome burger. The meat is freshly ground in house and well seasoned with salt and black pepper. The owner tells you all about the ingredients and process. The flavor is really incredible, definitely among the best in the city.

It was delicious !! 10/10 I’m surprised too because it is was one crisp to perfection and their special sauce was delicious. And they had great customer service ! I highly recommend if you don’t, you’re missing out!! Good quality & price ! I’ll be back for sure

Best Smashburger in NYC—highly recommend! We stopped in for lunch, and the owner was working the grill. He shared how he makes his own blend of meat in-house. He makes all the sauces from scratch. His hotdogs can’t be bought in a store, and they’re deep fried! After hearing this, we added a chili cheese dog to our order, and yes, the chili is his proprietary recipe too. The fries were fantastic! Everything was stunning and delicious. Can’t wait to go back soon. I’d like to try some of the specialty items like the southwest burger! I sampled the green salsa-style sauce, and it was superb. You’ll highly enjoy St. Mark’s Burgers & Dogs.

Awesome spot – best value burger in the city. Lowkey St Mark’s vibe and the guys who work there are super fun. Got a cheeseburger (6.50) and a hot dog all the way (6.00) – the burger was exquisite. Super juicy and a bit thicker than a smash burger

Wow, just WOW! Philippe boasts a delicious burger... except it's not a boast - it's the ABSOLUTE TRUTH! This was absolutely one of the best burgers I've EVER HAD. I got a cheeseburger and disco fries and my gf got the southwest burger and fries and we were both absolutely blown away! We couldn't stop talking about how incredible it was. The service was delightful and friendly, the place is clean with music playing and it was just absolutely delicious. I honestly cannot think of a better burger I've had in my life! 5/5

My first thought when I saw the Double Cheeseburger...so small! But after tasting it, is so delicious. Burger patty is thick, good meat to bun ratio. Still wish it was a little bigger. Fried Hot dog chili was decent. Definitely coming back for burgers.

Im always in the mood for a delicious juicy burger that's well seasoned and freshly made. You can't fake flavorful rich food. It was a lovely spot for burger and fries. I enjoyed myself. Staff was welcoming. Very clean

The burgers are so good no cap. Love the thinly sliced onions, crispy edges, and REAL cheese. the owner is such a G. So affable and friendly. Idk why the other review is so bad. And shoutout to Rocco, the part time worker. Also got the chili cheese dog which was quite messy but I devoured it.

This place rules. Unreal chili cheese dog. Perfect double cheese burger. Great ambiance. Philippe and the other girl working (sorry don't know your name) were awesome.

This place is the BombZ. The owner is amazing and the food is truly worth it. Good customer service every burger served to my group was amazing. Not kidding. It will become one of our favorite weekend spots before the bar and after.

Places like this are why I moved to new york city. No frills burger/hotdog spot with an authentic old new york feel. You walk in and can see owner Philippe at the grill cooking everything up. Cash and venmo only. Seating available or you can do takeout. We had dinner there and talked to Philippe while he made the food. He's very nice and makes everything from scratch, including grounding the burger meat in house and making the chili sauce from scratch. We had the cheese burgers, fries, and hot dogs. They gave us a free side of chili. Everything was delicious! Very classic feel. Prices are reasonable and they have a pretty big menu for just recently opening. I loved this place

This place is so random. It opened recently on St. Marks with 0 fanfare. It still looks unfinished even though I've seen people in there. When I asked for a burger and my friend brought them to my place, I was excited to try it out because I was so intrigued. Unfortunately, I will not be back. This is the smallest burger I've ever had. It was barely bigger than a slider. To be fair, they're cheap, but they're very similarly priced to 7th Street Burger, which is leaps and bounds better and bigger. It was unclear to me if the burger was supposed to be a smashburger or not. It had the fixings of one: sauce, pickles, but the patty was a bit too thick. However, the patty was too thin, in my opinion, to be a solid regular burger. The sauce was horrible; as you can see in the picture, it was loaded with sauce and extremely messy, and the sauce was so peppery that it wasn't appetizing. It made the bun soggy on both sides. I wasn't really impressed with St. Mark's Burgers and Dogs. Maybe I need to try the hot dog or fries.

I was walking by on Thursday night and decided to step into this place and I'm so glad I did. I tried the burger and hot dog and both were incredible. The flavors really stood out! I also had the chance to meet the owner, who was very friendly and welcoming. It's clear they care about the food and the customer experience. I'll definitely be going back for more.

This spot is amazing, are you drunk right now? Do you want to feel fulfilled and happy? Are you sober and you want an old school dog? Are you young, 20 something and want to know how your grandparents ate when they walked down st marks on the prowl for a good time? Eat here, it's phenomenal. It's giving Rut's Hut, it's giving food joy. I'm sure the Germans have a word for it, it's good

This is one of the best burgers I've ever eaten. The restaurant has a casual vibe but with plenty of counter space to eat. The owner was working the grill alone but still great to talk to and dining at his establishment was a delight. Will be back many times

Great burger. Cool owner. Great value, hole in the wall burger joint. Highly recommend for a quick bite

Single greatest burger I've ever had in my life. Owner talked to us and walked us through his whole process. Every aspect of the cooking process is well thought out and it is very clear he has spent years of his life perfecting his recipe. Will be back!

Classic burgers, dogs with obviously quality ingredients and amazing sauce. Fries were great! Thanks!
