We stumbled into this place after some other burger places were closed, and I'm glad we did! This was one of the best smash burgers i've had in a long time. I understand people saying the burgers are a bit pricey for the size, but to me the delicate nature of the sandwich combined with bold flavors really sealed the deal. I can't remember which one my wife got but we were both in heaven, and even after sharing the shockingly good garden salad, we didn't feel stuffed like we usually do when leaving burger places. Oh, and the Ghost Claw cocktail was delicious and refreshing. We'll absolutely swing back around to Ghostburger the next time we're in DC.

I got a burger to go. It tasted ok. not bad, but nothing I'd make a special trip for. I'm giving a 1 star review because I ordered & paid for added bacon, and they failed to put in on my burger, which, because it was a to-go order, wasn't noticed until I got home. Between the so-so taste, and missing ingredient, my visit only merits 1 star.

We got Ghostburger delivered recently and I don't know if we just hit a bad night or what but I just wasn't that impressed. The burgers were fine and the fries were soggy. It was also pretty expensive for what it was. Our 2 burgers and fries (which you pay for separately) was around $50, which feels like a lot for a delivery burger. I don't know that I'd try Ghostburger again given how many other burger spots there are in DC.

Came here for dinner with a friend on a weekday, and it was super empty. There's a huge outdoor patio space with lots of seating, so would recommend sitting outside on a nice day. Happy hour ends at 7pm, and is a good deal ($8 cocktails). I ordered a Mayahuel to drink, a Ghostburger, and Ghost Fries. The drink and burger were good (soft patty, juicy bun), and the crinkle fries were standout. With tax and tip, though, my meal came out to over $30, which is definitely overpriced for the small portion sizes. (I'm also opposed in principle to burger joints that don't automatically include fries with their burgers!) Overall: a solid place for dinner with good food and drinks, but expect to pay a bit too much for what you get!

What a great experience I can in with my family at about 11pm on a saturday and they were so willing to serve us. We have the BYOB and it was so amazing we couldn't even get a picture the mayahuel and poco picante and they were both to die for omg. They were both basically plays on margaritas just one spicier than the other but both ultimately delicious. Everyone in the room environment around us seem very happy. The fries were perfect especially the Philly fries. Please make sure you ask for Andrea and Estrella they are the best bartenders I have had in a very long time. The drinks were stronggg but tasted sooo good ! They were amazing thanfully service was so quick !

Average burger (ghostburger). Sevice was excellent. Not a fan of the pre-made cocktail I had (old fashioned). Aftertaste was not awesome.

Completely unimpressed by this food for the price. Not sure where these DC foodies usually eat but if they think this place is great, I'm sad for the whole DC food scene.
We really wanted a good burger after walking around all day. Ghostburger really came through! We ordered Dash and it was fast. Ghostburger double and The Charlie single with double fries and cheese sauce on the side. Yum! That Charlie burger was such a hit, it made my husband a little jealous. The micro broccoli sprouts with red onion is beyond creative and was so delicious with the pimento cheese and burger. Fries a little more seasoned than I would normally like but they were still delicious. Fluffy and crispy. Highly recommend.

I had the Frenchie & it was delicious! Wish I had gotten two patties instead of one though. The chipotle mayo for the fries is a must-try! Bathrooms are super clean too.
