Savoring the American burger, accompanied by crisp potato wedges, was an exquisite experience. With mouthwatering flavors and ample portions, my satisfaction was undeniable. Notably, the halal options ensure inclusivity for all diners.

I’ve been looking forward to trying out kofta burger for some time now, I’ve heard many great things. We tried to order one other time but they were closed, The website said they were open but they were in fact closed that day, I also understand it’s a small business so things like this can happen from time to time. We both ordered the kofta burger with a side of potato wedges. We ordered our burgers medium, they were definitely more medium-rare, luckily we aren’t too picky and it was fine with us but I do know for some people that could be a huge deal breaker. The burgers were seasoned pretty well, they weren’t bad at all, not great, but they definitely did not live up to the hype, in my opinion. Now the potato wedges…. I truly cannot remember the last time I had wedges this horrible, they were under cooked, soggy and greasy. I understand they probably were not going for ‘traditional American wedges’ but oh my goodness, even my kids wouldn’t eat them. I tried a few thinking I picked one that wasn’t as good or cooked etc, nope all bad. All in all I did not think it was worth the money and was very disappointed, Maybe it was an off day. I wouldn’t suggest it to anyone but I may try them again in the future and update my review in hopes it was just a bad day for them.

Absolutely amazing! The signature Kofta Burger has a lot of Middle Eastern influence but it’s still a burger. The wedge fries aren’t heavy and have a great spice to them – not garlic for days but not just potato… There are some more traditional burger options as well as some Middle Eastern food we’ll be trying out soon. It’s attached / in the open with a cool shop you can check out while waiting.

Family road trip. Looked for a good place even if it meant going out of our way a little bit. Found this place because of the good reviews. Let me tell you, when you are tired of mediocrity, this place will not disappoint. The chef puts thought into his menu and real effort to make the food taste its best. We all loved our meals, and it was well worth the effort to go a bit out of our way to get there. I’ll go back when we pass through the area again for sure. I highly recommend this place to people who can appreciate good food made with good increadients by someone who cares about their craft. Enjoy!!!!

Kofta Burger is truly one of the best places I’ve been in Syracuse ! Went with a few friends to look around James street market and found this spot behind it. The food was made quickly and was so fresh. The perfect serving size to make you feel full but not heavy in any way. The owner does it all himself and was so kind with his food serving. Support local places and stop by!

I had the veggie pita and eggplant gives such a meat like feel but creamy almost buttery texture. The spice is enough to enhance flavor without being over baring. The red onions give a satisfiing crunch as well as a slight sweetness. Over all perfectly balanced in flavor, has become go-to favorite. Highly recommend!

We were lucky enough to find this great place on opening day! My kofta burger was perfectly cooked… my daughter had the falafel burger… which was also outstanding. Excited to try again.

Waited for them all week to try this place on Thursday and glad I did they did not disappoint in quality, service and small business uniqueness. I got the Toasty Tahini burger cooked Medium. It came with a small side of fresh seasoned potato wedges. And I also got one of their iced coffee’s (The owner gave this to me on the house, made my experience that much more memorable!) . The burger had so much well blended flavors was juicy but somehow not running with oil. The potatoes were fresh cut, this kind of stuff is a huge must for me when I buy food out so I was extremely impressed. They make their own iced coffee from unique beans I found this enjoyable(not your standard drip brew for sure) they have different flavors you can add, I did almond and left the coffee black. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for fresh, middle east flavor palette, or just downright a coffee alone! They are hidden behind a store front so you have to go down the side street to enter. Run and get you some!!!!
