American classic hamburger joint! What a pleasure it was to have lunch at Z Burger in McLean, VA. On a very hot day when temperatures were soaring above 100 degrees the folks at Z Burger were serving up creamy milkshakes. I enjoyed the double cheeseburger with bacon and a side of fries. The fries were cooked perfectly with a nice brown crispy to them. The cheeseburger was paired with fresh lettuce, tomato’s, pickles and the freshest buns. Anyone in the area would be a fool to pass up this place for any other hamburgers. Staff was like family with their greetings. I had my food brought to my table and asked it there was anything else I may need. This kind of treatment is only at local establishments that care about their customers. I’ll be back very soon to enjoy one of their mouthwatering milkshakes. Enjoy!

I don’t visit fast food locations often, but I had a spoil day to give, and the location popped up in my Google search and on my Uber Eats discovery and was rated high. I visited the website, and even though the prices were high, it showcased itself enough to validate my sampling.

Always a solid bet for great burgers, fries and shakes. You also now have the Persian/Kabob “Mama Joons” as well here. The employees are always so friendly. Peter, the owner, has 15 different restaurants, and is always visiting each one and meeting the customers as well as making sure to spend time with his employees. Truly is a well run business providing amazing and delicious food. Parking is in the rear or on the side street.

We ate here today, I ordered cheese burger . Everything was great and delicious. They even had their own saffron ice cream and the director of the restaurant was very nice and welcoming.

Great hidden gem in the area. The burgers, fries, salads, kabobs, and the hummus are delicious, freshly made and have very good ingredients. The service is spot on, with quality and very attentive. I totally recommend this restaurant.

The food and shakes are 5/5. My review stems from the efficiency issues, and overall flow of the space.

I cannot recommend this wonderful establishment more. The food is fresh and amazing. The service is incredible. Run, don’t walk to Z burger. My picky daughters left stuffed and made it a point to highly praise the burgers. The onion rings are some of the best I’ve had in my life. The flavors of milkshakes are endless and up to your imagination only. Enjoy!

I was so thrilled to find out that there is a McLean location! We used to drop by the one in Tenleytown after we went to the zoo. I love the shake menu! So many flavors to pick from.

First time here as I use to be a big fan of Boston market. This z burger first of all had terrible customer service. The owner or manager was some old middle eastern guy who was very rude. Prices are terrible considering the food was not good. I paid $25 for burger, drink, fries. Most importantly was the food tasting nasty. I normally finish my food regardless if I like it or not, because I just spent a lot of money on the food. However $25 wasted, I could not continue eating their burger. It was nasty, cheese just tasted off, had nasty after taste. Just totally disappointed that they replaced my favorite go to Boston market for something like this. Food was nasty, service was horrible, and the price is through the roof. This is the world we live in now.

Amazing service at this restaurant. It was our first time. We met Mehdi, he was really nice and hospitable. He helped us with the menus and brought the food for us. He went out his way to make sure we were satisfied. Def would recommend this spot.
