Caroline's Oyster Bar✓

$$$ ·
120 E Brooklyn Vlg Ave, Charlotte, NC 28202, USA

A solid hamburger in one of the coziest rooms in town. Sneaky good date night pick.

Bae's Burgers✓

$ ·
246 N Main St, Mooresville, NC 28115, USA

A true smash burger worth the drive to Mooresville. Gas money well spent.

Bolton's Curbside Cookery✓

$ ·
108 S Main St, Mt Holly, NC 28120, USA

A true smash burger and fantastic, large chicken tenders at very friendly prices. Worth the trip to Mount Holly on its own.

Sure Fire✓

$ ·
301 Camp Rd #101, Charlotte, NC 28206, USA

A food truck slinging a great smash burger, usually parked at Hop Fly Brewing. Beer plus smash burger, the math checks out.

Comet Grill✓

$ ·
2224 Park Rd, Charlotte, NC 28203, USA

A very local CLT staple with a great burger and live music every night after 8:30. The kind of place that doesn't change, thankfully.

The Crunkleton✓

$$$ ·
1957 E 7th St, Charlotte, NC 28204, USA

The most comfortable bar seats in Charlotte, top-notch bartenders, and an amazing burger, with a wagyu version at dinner. Also an awesome brunch. Date night, solved.

Uchiba✓

1720 Commonwealth Ave #200, Charlotte, NC 28205, USA

The $10 'mini' burger is not actually mini, and it's outstanding. Go at Friday lunch to beat the crowd. One of the best burger moves in the city.

NADC Burger✓

$ ·
320 S Tryon St #110, Charlotte, NC 28202, USA

Pro skater Neen Williams opened this Wagyu burger spot in Uptown's Latta Arcade, and it earned a literal dance from a Charlotte chef when he took his first bite. The two-patty smash burger comes stacked with tamed jalapeños, grilled onions, secret sauce, and American cheese on a toasted potato bun with actual grill…
