98K Hamburg
7.7
A late-hours chicken-and-burgers shop that hits best when you keep the order focused: one crispy chicken sandwich plus fries, with wings as the add-on. It’s built for delivery and after-hours convenience more than dining-room polish.
Must-Try Dishes:
Crispy chicken sandwich, Chicken wings, French fries
What makes it special: Late-night crispy chicken and burgers optimized for delivery.
#3
MBL&Q Burger
7.5
A Chinese-forward take on the American burger counter: combo-driven ordering, crunchy sides, and chicken-burger energy over dining-room experience. Best as a quick hit when you want a burger format with a slightly different flavor cadence than the usual smash-burger baseline.
Must-Try Dishes:
Spicy chicken burger, Popcorn chicken, French fries
What makes it special: Combo-friendly burger counter with chicken-led best sellers.
7.5
A classic neighborhood diner option where the win is simple: hot breakfast plates, steady coffee, and an easy in-and-out rhythm. Strongest for daytime comfort ordering—eggs, French toast, and diner-style burgers—rather than anything trend-chasing.
Must-Try Dishes:
2 eggs any style with bacon, French toast, American cheeseburger
What makes it special: Old-school diner plates that prioritize comfort and speed.
