- BlueNile TravelGroupDecember 8, 2012Great place to grab an excellent burger in Rosslyn/Arlington, really everything on the menu is fantastic. There is also a second location in the same shopping plaza and they accept credit cards now.
- Washington PostMarch 11, 2013The strong suit at Ray's is the hand-trimmed beef blend and the way it's cooked. Sides of watermelon and corn on the cob are built into even the basic $6.95 hamburger. Read more
- The legendary Arlington burger joint is worth the wait in line. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The Au Poivre burgers are just amazing. Bring the cash money 'cause credit cards are a no-no.
- Eric BeardApril 6, 2011The burger's here are all good. Last time I was there I ordered "the mack" it was amazing. Their mac and cheese is also very good. Make sure you bring cash because this place is CASH ONLY!!!
- Washingtonian MagazineNovember 22, 2011Of all the restaurants Pres. Obama has visited in Washington, the only one to have merited a 2nd visit is this bare-bones burger joint. The patty is 10 oz. of prime, aged beef and eats like a steak.
- Jacob ProfferJanuary 15, 2013Best place in dc, amazing food. They also take amazing care of military. Four years + and the only place I'm religious about eating at in dc.

http://www.nomnomboris.com - Ben LieblichOctober 13, 2011Burgers are outstanding (I like mine au poivre with guacamole). Sides are all pretty good. Shakes, however, are meh. If you want something sweet, try Cafe Assorti across the street.

- Benjamin BoydAugust 25, 2011Boyd's Burger Rating: 9/10. Best burger joint in DC area! Add mushrooms!
- Doris TruongApril 18, 2010Let them cook it their way. It's much more likely to be medium-rare through and through instead of partially tartare. And come hungry!
- Alex ZapataMarch 29, 2010Do yourself a favor. The first time you go, get your burger grilled. Not au poivre, blackened, or diablo. Set a baseline for yourself. You'll be back.
