George’s has one of the most talked about burgers in the area, with its perfect mix of gourmet ground and backyard char. Grab one of these, sit on the patio and watch the people walk by. Read more

Blue cheese burger is one of my favorite burgers at any restaurant ever! I used to come here all the time when I lived nearby and it was always friendly and consistent. Neighborhood institution.

Unpretentious since 1961. Hand-pressed, fresh (not frozen) patties, grilled to order. Historic, from Hamilton Jordan to Justin Timberlake. Untrendy. Love it!

Enjoyable experience at George's. The food was good (had a really nice black bean burger and O-rings) and the staff was friendly. Not too crowded or noisy either.

Classic, low key burger joint. There are plenty of better burgers out there, but few that are so classic and unpretentious. Nice patio for warm days as well.

My favorite is the Mexican burger with a black bean patty! Second is the chili! Yums! Been going here for 7 years and two kids later. Hole in the wall gem of the Highlands!

As George's granddaughter & food consumer for 20 yrs, I can testify to how tasty the menu is - no bias opinions attached. Not only the burgers, but also the chicken fingers & mozz stix = yummy. (: GO!

George's burgers are a staple of Va-Hi. Their no-frills vibe is welcomed in the era of boutique burgers. There's a reason they've been around since 1961! Sit on the patio, order a brew & people watch. Read more

This should be the Corner Bistro of Atlanta. Good burger, decent music and good, cheap beers. Kid friendly. Good for sports watching.

Best burger in Atlanta -- get it just the way it comes. This ain't one of those new fancy assed burger joints. Dive bar. Cold beer. Great burgers. Perfect!

The black bean and veggie burgers are house made and AMAZING. Definitely in my top 3 veggie burgers in the city!

Jalapeno Dijon burger was fantastic. I recommend upgrading to onion rings for the extra $.75
