The burger was great! The service was excellent. The price was a value for what you got, and the atmosphere was nostalgic.

Dive burger joint. Good food cheap. They do a 5 star job of having 1 star atmosphere. Definitely a good spot when you crave a burger or hot dog without any pretense.

Paul's has been around since the late 80s - 1989 to be exact. I've been coming here since the early 2000s when the train tracks still ran over your head on the old school 2 seaters. The burgers here have a "I made this at home" vibe to them both in looks and taste. While there is a menu, you can request something be created for you (ingredients pending). It's one of those burger joints that you want under your belt especially if you go drinking in the area. This place has seen its fair share of wear and tear and could use a face lift but I feel like that would take away its charm.

The 2nd Avenue burger was awesome! The Gravy Fries were super crispy and the gravy was delicious!

Thick patties grilled covered under metal goblets. Does not get better than this. When you have it, you want to come back. This is the most under rated burger joint. Stopped being fooled by shake shack or 5 clowns. They don’t come close

I wanted to give it 3 stars but the meat quality and everything was cooked really well otherwise it was really bland. Fries were good though. Final verdict: I’d prob pick another spot but it’s good enough to give it a try.

Super friendly staff and we weren’t expecting that. The Eastsider was a big burger so come prepared for a full meal.

5 stars is not enough! Very nice service & atmosphere. Personally, this became my favorite burger place in town. Patty is so juicy and perfect 👍 The fries were best I’ve had in years. Definitely recommend this place.
