I’ve been meaning to try Jerrell's BETR BRGR for ages, and finally had a chance during Labor Day Weekend. At this joint it’s all about plant based burgers, which to me has always been counter intuitive. I’ve never been a vegan fan, but I wanted to give it a try. Jerrell’s is a modest place with basically an ordering window and a pickup window. Most people get their food to go, as the seating area is very limited. The menu is very limited also, but I think keeping it simple is good. I ordered the OG (original), along with loaded chili fries., and anxiously waited for my first vegan experience. Everything came pretty quickly and nicely packaged. I elected to have it there while it was hot and fresh. My first bites were surprising. Wait, this is vegan? The cheese, too? Isn’t this supposed to taste like cardboard and leave you hungry and unsatisfied? I have to say the burger was crazy delicious! Ok, you can def tell that you’re not eating beef, but on its own merits it was very tasty. Still a bit suspicious (hey, I’m a native New Yorker, and don’t believe squat), I tried the chili fries. OMG…next level. It was rich, hearty, and all so good. I don’t know how this is possible, but it was among the best I’ve ever had. If this is vegan then I’ve been missing something. Those two things I had from Jerrell’s were very, very good. Not good ‘for vegan’, but just plain good. We all know the benefits of this type of eating, but I never ventured into that world because I didn’t want to forego flavor. But this place dishes up evidence that eating cleanly can be done without sacrificing taste. Now I want to go to a vegan restaurant and try more. Strongly recommended especially for non-vegans. It will certainly surprise you, and I’m sure you’ll love it as much as I did.

Straight off the plane and this was the first place I wanted to try in NY. Vegan burger, fries, and a milkshake... oh yea. That burger was delicious, I should've gotten a double, seriously (or another burger)! I'm a fry kinda girl and these were cooked to perfection and they were waffle fries! Also got a chocolate milkshake made with oat milk, so so good! This walk up was very effective with service and had a few seating to enjoy your food. Cute and fast with getting the order out. Can't wait to go back!

I had one of the best vegan burgers I’ve ever eaten here, absolutely delicious, with amazing flavor and texture. The staff were incredibly friendly, which made the experience even better. The only downside is that there’s no fully air-conditioned space to sit, but you can easily get it as takeaway and enjoy it somewhere breezy nearby. Overall, the food was so, so good. I’ll definitely be coming back!

The hearty vegan chilli is silky and savory with a hint of sweetness. It's also mild in character, no 3-alarm fires here! Smiles! The Lil' BETR Burger is big on taste and has a flavor that captures the heart of classic, burger goodness. Mmmm! My milkshake had a creamy pineapple 🍍 taste & consistency, with refreshing ribbons of a tropical breeze. Yay! I'm looking forward to my 2nd visit. Thanks Jerrell's

WOW! This place was suggested by the hotel staff and I’m glad I went. Never had a good veggie burger but this wasn’t good, it was GREAT! Moist and so flavorful. Make sure to keep your wrapper around your burger, it can get a little messy. Very generous portions. Order ahead as it does take time since everything is prepared fresh. Sorry, no photos of my burger as I was ravenous and could not put it down.

10/10 phenomenal. So freaking delicious!! We wanted another one right after! Fave burger in NYC. Staff was super nice too! Wish I’d come back for another. Until next time!

From the moment I ordered my food I knew it would be amazing. The man I ordered from was kind and courteous. He wore gloves as he prepared my food and was handling the restaurant by himself. The Vegan burger was fresh, the roll was soft, and the toppings all very tasty. My Vegan Chili Waffle Fries were hot, full of cheeses, and the beans were fresh and soft. I recommend this place to everyone who visits NYC and is looking for fresh Vegan food!! 5 STARS! ❤️ TY

Best veggie burguer in NYC. It’s incredible how tasty it is, had to come more than one time in a single week. Not the nicest place but the food worth it, I’d love to have such a place in São Paulo Brazil.

The quality was immediately apparent as soon as I tasted the bun. This is not your average burger joint. The food is absolutely top shelf. Not a ton of seating but we lucked out and got a spot. Had the loaded fries and a milkshake as well. Everything was well made, and just delicious. Fantastic vegan food right in the city.

Woke up at 2 am with a craving…. This was right nearby and I figured why not try it. As a meat eater I was a bit hesitant.. 7th st burger was down the street and I knew they were still open too… but I digress. I decided to try BETR BRGR after walking past it all these months. I was pleasantly surprised by my meal. I ordered the double burger with fries. Fries were super crispy and fresh!! Now onto the burger… first thing that came to mind was how fresh it was. Tbh it was an unfamiliar sensation which is problematic in itself but I digress again…. The burger was very freshly made with quality ingredients, I felt like it was almost homemade in a way. Super refreshing. I don’t run into most burgers of that caliber. It also was honestly a larger portion than I thought and I couldn’t finish it all. Very filling. This is the type of burger you will eat and feel energized by, not gross or heavy after! Great overall :) want to come back to try the oat shake next time

Burger wasn't bad but tasted like regular impossible or beyond burger ion see what hype is about. It definitely needs more season imo. Waffle fries was good with the special sauce.

This is a good place to stop if you want a plant-based burger quickly. The fries were also very good. And leave a little room for the oatmeal ice cream at the end!
