Awesome creativity

by hotelman21

No matter what your in the mood for on your burger, Uburger has something for you. From the staple toppings like lettuce and grilled onion, to the creative like their guacamole or house sauce, you can dress your burger up anyway you would like. Fresh cut delicious fries, to homemade onion rings. Also did I mention the homemade, made to order fraps availible in all different flavors. Anytime lunch or dinner, this place is super! Remember to add an extra burger patty on that Uburger!

• Pros: Friendly, helpful service
• Cons: Not ample seating

Kenmore Square burger joint caters to budget-minded students in search of above-average fast food.

In Short
Uburger's standard, cafeteria-style dining area is often filled with B.U. students stopping in for a post-class burger and fries. Patrons peer into the open kitchen to see young workers preparing thick shakes (made with Richardson's ice cream) and thin onion rings. Quarter-pound patties (ground in-house) feature a plethora of toppings, from fried jalapenos to multiple cheeses. Other offerings include Kayem all-beef hot dogs and marinated grilled-chicken sandwiches.

I love UBurger, reminds me of In and Out on the West Coast, but better!

by BackBayDrake

I am a huge endorser of UBurger, its quick, cheap and delicious. It is loaded with college students, but its located right on the outskirts of BU's campus, so there's not much avoiding that. Plus there's nothing wrong with reminiscing and bringing myself back to my college days. I think I enjoy UBurger so much because it reminds me of In and Out, a fast food burger chain on the west coast. UBurger, like I&O uses a special sauce (a combination of thousand island dressing and spices) that really adds something extra to the burger. Uburger also, although provides you with fast service, is not a fast food change and the quality of the meat is clearly better. I'll admit this burger can't compare to one from say Bartley's Burger Cottage over in Harvard Square, but it's not trying to- they are completely different, in a good way.

Has so much potential....but

by thewrestler

Actually, it looks and feels like a great burger joint. I was less than impressed with the taste of the burger, and any place that makes quasi-gourmet burgers should be using homemade or freshly baked buns. I HATE buns from a bag loaded with preservatives.

But really, the deciding factor here was the onion rings. They are the perfect onion rings IF the cook cooks them long enough. We brought ours home and they were raw on the inside. Like eating a bunch of raw onions. I had three and couldn't hack it anymore - my mouth started getting sores.

• Pros: The fries and onion rings are reasonably priced
• Cons: the burgers are nasty - frozen patties and preservative filled buns

Amazing burgers, great price

by sushinickel

I am a student in Boston, and I cannot believe I had never noticed Uburger before! For around $5, I got a burger topped with swiss cheese, roasted red peppers, grilled onions, lettuce, and grilled mushrooms. The burger was moist and delicious. I definitely recommend this place to any other college students in the area or for people who are looking for a quick, affordable, and delicious burger.

• Pros: Variety of options, decent prices for the area, right at the Kenmore stop
• Cons: Only street parking, few chairs

Best fast fresh food /hamburger, best french fries

by davemlvn

This is Boston's answer to the hallowed In-N-Out burger chain on the west coast. If you love burgers, you have to love UBurger in Kenmore Square. The freshness (burger and fries) was unbelievable. The counter guy said everything is made daily on the premises. Nothing is frozen or reheated. My yuppie burger (swiss cheese and mushrooms) was delish as were the fries. This was a real find. No more Fenway Franks for me. The next time I'm at a Sox game, I'll be coming by UBurger for the best fast food experience in the city.

• Pros: Freshly made hamburgers (ground each day on the premises) & fresh french fries
• Cons: Limited parking nearby, limited seating.
