Fantastic burgers. They literally make the patty fresh after you order and they're huge! Come hungry and leave with your wallet and stomach happy and full.

Came in starving. Got a soul burger deluxe. Came out asking for more than I needed. The burger are huge and juicy. Asked for a medium -rare and it was cooked to perfection.

One of the best burgers in the city. Don't be deterred, it's a hole in the wall. The classic burger with their grilled onions is out of this world. Fries are a little potatoey-get the onion rings.

Truly juiciest turkey burger I've ever had. The El Paso with the jalapeños was super spicy. definitely a hole in the wall so don't except much by way of ambience

Bacon Cheddar Cheeseburger and add fried egg! Get it deluxe with sweet potato fries, they are yummier than regular fries. Burgers are BIG so come hungry! Served hot and delicious! Loved it! 5 Stars

Currently the best burger in NYC in my opinion. Juicy, tall, tasty, fair price, authentic location. Totally recommended.
Cole KennedyNovember 14, 2018
Top notch cheeseburgers. The perfect place for a hearty weeknight meal. You’re gonna leave fat and happy and not spend too much money, either.
Marco FabbriNovember 29, 2014
I took the one without the bun and it's really light and healthy. Take some green lettuce as a side!
Pedro JimenezJune 9, 2014
Huge. Greasy. Very filling. Sends your diet plans to Hell. Delicious. Quality ingredients. One of the better burger values in NYC. Eastsider needs no ketchup.
ValApril 10, 2014
A true East Village staple! I've been coming here for at least 10 years. Be sure to get the onion rings and don't forget to taste the pickles. Oh! and they deliver. ::drool::

Burgers are on the larger side (in a good way). Always cooked perfectly (however you order). Hole in the wall that has better burgers than you'd think. One of my favs (top 3) in the city!
Karl BergerOctober 14, 2019
It's a fun place with friendly service but better burgers are to be had elsewhere. The patty is large but the meat has little flavor and is watery like it was pan fried. The buns are very good.
Olof CarlsonMarch 7, 2015
A great surprise. Excellent meat, cheese, bun. Good value. Service was eccentric but also fun and nice.
Theresa RoldanOctober 15, 2014
A great place to indulge in guilty pleasures. I had the tuna melt, onion rings, Cajun fries, and black/white shake. I left happy. Don't judge
Ash CraigFebruary 18, 2015
Don't bother with the fries, the burgers are big enough to satisfy any normal appetite! (The fries are great anyway though) Fantastic burgers, cash only!
Zlata ZubenkoMay 21, 2018
Solid burger. Fries ok. Get the cooked onions and pickles that come for free but ya gotta ask for it.
Marco FabbriNovember 22, 2014
I took the Texas burger and was perfect! Take it deluxe and you won't be disappointed!
KApril 11, 2016
Perfect old school type joint with the tastiest burgers! A must.
Orchaid JonesOctober 5, 2014
Best, juiciest and biggest turkey burger I've ever had!!!!get anything you want on it
Alex BentonDecember 6, 2013
Carol Lim: "For me Paul's is what you always want: a good ratio of fat to meat in the patty, a really good, nicely sized bun, and a good price."
Deon DSeptember 26, 2014
Excellent no frills burger. I wouldn't call it the best in New York though.
Federico RuggiJuly 30, 2015
Stop being silly and GO TAKE A BURGER here. Best I ever had. Rare cooked meat is mandatory.
Cameron GidariMarch 1, 2017
No frills or gimmicks, just a solid burger.
Caitlin BrooksAugust 6, 2011
Definitely get the deluxe option, upgrade to sweet potato fries for $1. This will change your life! Also, you can probably split an order of burger and fries and still feel way fat.

Best burger I've ever had. Gotta get a cheeseburger with a fried egg on it!
Kate FurmanOctober 4, 2015
Simple burger joint with hand crafted burgers made with fresh beef.

Some super funky fresh neon tubebending on the ceiling. Follow the curves.
Thomas WoodSeptember 24, 2013
This is one of the best burgers I've had in a while. On par with, if not better than, Corner Bistro. Wow.
Raja HOctober 28, 2013
Soul Burger (bacon, ham, fried onions) w/ jalapeños and mushrooms on an English Muffin, medium rare. McSorely's on the side
Nate BeattyAugust 25, 2016
Just absolutely classic. The burger is awesome.
Joe D.January 31, 2017
Ask for pickles!
Cel TorresJune 17, 2015
Very simple place, but if you want a big, juicy, greasey, delicious burger, you need to go here!
Farhana SheatsMay 10, 2015
Amazing Burgers! Had the bacon cheeseburger yesterday and I'm still thinking about it. Damn.
Valentin GuerinOctober 5, 2015
A good burger place in East Village, this place has been around for decades.
Lüc CarlDecember 9, 2011
Best burgers in NYC. If you haven’t eaten for 3 days and you’re in the mood for some red meat, this is the place to go.
Jarel HillJune 12, 2018
Great burger. Top in the city for me! Split the fries
Alex TavarezJanuary 31, 2020
Some of the best burgers! Juicy and delicious, with a good variety.

No nonsense burger spot, it's absolutely solid. The turkey burger won't disappoint either.

that one day you're feeling especially fat, come here and get your choice of burger and/or philly cheesesteak and/or hot dog (and is better)

Big awesome burgers at a great price. Love this place
Diego RufoApril 5, 2011
I recommend ordering the regular cheeseburger. Excellent meat and the place looks like the typical american burger joint from the eighties. Read more

The Blue Cheese Burger with grilled onions is the shit. I got it well but I bet it's better red if you fancy your beef that way.
Jack PhamMarch 13, 2013
Cash only!! But they have an ATM inside and there's a Chase across the street. Burgers were yummy.
