The 9 year anniversary burger was absolutely amazing and I really enjoyed the Arcade Lemonade frozen drink as well. Absolutely delicious and not too expensive. Wings and fries also good. Would not hesitate to go back the next time I’m in town.

Food was good, nothing to go crazy over. Portion size is small for the cost. Drink was ok but would rather have coke products and pay less. Lettuce was watery and frozen. Expected fresh lettuce.

Big Bun Burger Joint in Shirlington is fantastic. The burgers are packed with great flavor and quality toppings, the milkshakes are phenomenal, and the prices are very reasonable. I really appreciated the military discount, such a nice touch. Huge thanks to Natalia at the register and Kathy as well, both were wonderful. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Their name doesn’t lie — the sandwiches are BIG! I had the chicken sandwich and it was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Great quality ingredients and a generous portion. Highly recommend.

Big Buns sandwiches are consistently great, between burgers, fried chicken, and even grilled/blackened chicken sandwiches. We often go with the latter when we want something healthy-ish on a weekend dinner.
However, their fry portions are consistently disappointingly small, as pictured. It’s a pretty easy way to make customers happy; just be generous with the fries. They’re good and the sauces are good; but they’re small fries, so just give me more. A McDonald’s medium would be a fraction of the price w/ more fries.

a pleasant experience, the atmosphere was nice and welcoming, the seats are made out of wood and keep in mind it is a burger joint.
I hade an issue with my order but the manager gracefully delta with it to my satisfaction.
The restaurant was tidy, and cleaner so I’m rating it 8/10.
Talking about the food:
● Classic burger
● Shirlington hot
● Peppercorn steakhouse
● Blackend Mahi Mahi
● Collaboration
● Fricken goog fride chicken
● Nugz
● Fries
I’m not a burger person but everything I ate here was fresh and delicious, but I have to say that the Mahi Mahi was dry and flavorless. The fries were seasoned and flavorful.
Food quality was great and survise was fast for a fresh to order preparation.

Best burger in Arlington this trip and you won’t be left hungry with the portion size. Healthier soda and tea options other than coke/pepsi were nice to see. Can’t wait to try the other burgers. Service was friendly and prompt.

I’ve been wanting to stop by due to the name and I’m glad I did! The burgers were pretty juicy and tasted good. There are a lot of menu options including a variety of burger toppings, burger bowl and chicken sandwich. It’s fast casual but I think the quality of the burger is higher. Shake was awesome and made the fries even tastier when dipped in. The sauce they included with the fries was a little disappointing, tasted off like they put too much mayo in it. Still a decent place for a burger if you want to splurge. Lots of outdoor seating space!

If you’ve never been to Big Buns Damn Good Burgers, save your money and don’t. I wanted to try this place as I see Arlington has changed and wanted to try something different from what I’m accustomed to. I should have stuck to 5 guys or Wendy’s. My first issue? $87 for 2 burgers 2 chicken sandwiches, 2 small McDonald’s size French Fries & 4 fountain drinks. At a time when we all need to save when spending money, almost $90 dollars for half meals is beyond greedy. The burgers weren’t really good nor did they deserve their price. I could write a lengthy review on each bite n the way the flavors all made my mouth tingle or we can focus on the reality that someone out here is charging almost $90 for lunch. The fries portion is ridiculous. At least with 5 Guys you can share an order depending on its size with your family. Here I tried to share with my son but it was not worth the hassle. The Mexican Soda was flat. They didn’t explain it was in a fountain. I prefer it in a bottle. The juice drinks were watered down. Had I not taken my mother with me I would have canceled my order at that moment. $87 for 4 sandwiches, 4 drinks, n 2 small fries is robbery. Never again.
