Review Kung Fu Burger - Melbourne

Mark Nussy
Great place and good food. One of the best burgers in the area and decent value for money (compared to others in the area). I have decided to do a bit of a Chapel St Burger evaluation and comparison... so here are my results. Kung Fu Burger 335 Chapel St Ate- Classic Beef, Beyond the Classic (Vegan) and Minister Chicken Burger choices available - Beef, Chick, Pork, Seafood, Vegetarian and Vegan Size - Good size, OK Value Quality of ingredients - Good to Great Taste - Excellent. Each burger was thought through with a balanced flavour in mind Presentation - Good, simple Ambience (of Location) - Inside & outdoor seating. Simple but great for casual catch up or quick bite Value for Money - Good Overall Burger Score - Classic- 8.3, Chicken 8.5, Vegan 8 Great service, slightly slow to come out (only one person serving and cooking at the time), Good to Great burgers. Very happy with the place and burgers overall. 8/10

Finished a movie on a Saturday night and wanted to grab a bite and tried this for the first time. Nice first time experience, delicious burgers and good service for a late night snack. I got the Respect the Classic burger combo and was overall satisfied. The burger might have been slightly over cooked, but the core ingredients were there, nice big slices of pickles, beef patty was well portioned. All up it cost $20 which is on the expensive side of things, but to be expected for late service.

Absolutely delicious burgers, never had the flavour combinations before and was so surprised how well they all worked together. If you're looking for an exciting new twist to burgers I'd highly recommend this place, we had the minister chicken, the wasa-beef and the Bruce's fries everything was perfect with great quality ingredients. Looking forward to coming again and trying something new!

Top tier burger joint on Chapel Street. Amazing Cantonese undertones in the cooking. We are lucky to have such an authentic experience here in Melbourne. The fried chicken burger is a must (spicy version is tantalising to the tastebuds). The owner is very friendly and makes dining at the restaurant a lovely experience. Highly recommend to anyone in the area, definitely a great second date spot!

I am a absolute burger fiend and Asian inspired burgers here really hit the spot! Good selection of beverages (both alcholic and non). You cannot go wrong with the minister chicken burger! Service here is friendly and food comes quickly!

Best burger I’ve had in a very long time. As an American I pride myself on my bbq skills… I couldn’t have done better than this burger. Go get one!

By far the best burger joint in Chapel St. Always fresh and very generous size at a great price! Every now and then they have special deals which include chips or a beer. Meals always come out quick. Gotta try!

Really interesting burgers - traditional and more including Japanese and Korean burgers. Veggie and vegan options too. Freshly, home made and authentic, it’s the real thing and not mass produced. run by really nice guys. You can get drinks there as well. Perfect burger stop – great for a quick catch up with a friend too. I really like coming here, and I come often! By far my favourite burger in the area. Love it!

Review: ✏📝<br/>If you are a fan of fusion burgers, you gotta check out Kungfu Burgers on Chapel Street! This is one of my favourite burger joints of all time 🍔<br/><br/>Dishes:🍲🍟🍔<br/>Spicy Minister chicken burger🍗| Soft shell crab burger 🦀| Jumbo Aussie rule burger 🍔 | Potato Fries 🍟 | Onion rings 🧅<br/><br/>Value:💰💲<br/>Have ordered takeaways multiple times from Kungfu Burger & it has always been consistent! Love the unique Asian infused flavours. <br/>I usually go for the minister chicken burger with hot sauce - not overly spicy & is a great option if you love a bit of spicy kick. Jumbo Aussie rule burger is massive, good if you are extremely hungry, definitely a super satisfying cheat meal option. The soft shell crab burger is okay but not amazing - too deep fried and slightly dry for my liking.<br/>For sides, potato fries are good however the portion is quite small although we went for the Large option. Personally enjoyed the onion rings a lot more - they are amazing and soo crispy!<br/><br/>Reasonably priced burgers especially considering it is located in the South Yarra / Prahran area.<br/><br/>Will I go back and overall score: ❌⭕️💯<br/>Yes - 9/10

Menu Images on Under Eats are misleading and although it was exactly like how it was described in the write-up, everything was so underwhelming and Okayish. <br/><br/>Coming to the point, Soft Shell Crab Burger minus the Black buns (because they were served in usual brioche) were the only decent thing from everything we ordered, thought, not great<br/><br/>Fries with Chinese topping was a rehashed version of fries with ketchup topped with some sprinkles called salad, sunny side up and cheese. Pretty bad. <br/><br/>And the Southern Fry Chicken Burger was very dry, flavorless and bad. <br/><br/><br/>

Great range of meat free options here! Loved the Beyond spicy burger - just the right amount of chilli. Also recommend the loaded fries with mayo if you can fit it all in
Jack Abbott
Everytime I've been to Kung Fu burger the service has been awesome. They have some great veggie and vegan options, the Buddha temple is delicious.<br/><br/>A good variety of specials that change quite frequently.<br/><br/>The food comes out fast and has always been excellent quality and value. <br/><br/>I haven't dined in yet but they have have available to play whilst yourl wait for your food. It has a simple interior but a cool mural on the wall.<br/><br/>Highly recommended!
Phoebe Tang
The chicken drumsticks are simply stunning - great flavor and combination. The chicken bites are another highlight (so I regretted not taking any photos of them). They’re juicy and perfectly seasoned, not too spicy and non-spicy-lovers should give it a go as well. Last, the burger I ordered is called Thai box with slow cooked pork shoulder and sweet chili paste. The pork is a bit sour on its own but it comes well with the other ingredients.

Loved the vegetarian options here, the ultimate beyond was delicious! Tried the tofu nugget and they were just amazing, can't wait to be back

Top stuff for this part of Chapel Street!! Well done guys

I can only describe Kung Fu burger as drop dead amazing! I tried out the Minister Chicken which is a fried chicken burger with the gorgeous pillowy black buns and everything about it just worked. The chicken was still juicy with a crispy fried exterior, all the sauces helped cut through the grease and the bun soaked up all the flavour to be a perfectly balanced burger. For only $12.50 I can't praise them enough on just an amazing dish!<br/><br/>I also tried the Vego Bruce's fries which are loaded fries with kimchi, sriracha and a few other additions but all the flavours were perfectly balanced here as well and the fries all had a good crunch to them.<br/><br/>Kung Fu Burger is breathtakingly good and I cannot recommend it enough to anyone and everyone!

What kind of martial arts does a little wannabe chef do? 🐼 Kung food! 🤩<br/><br/>Kung Fu is a type of Chinese flighting style that I have personally tried... and sucked 😂<br/><br/>It actually takes a lot to learn the form, have proper power and at the same time gracious flow and gesture structure! And while I might not be a little ninja yet, I sure can relate to the Kung Fu Panda and it’s love for Chinese food!<br/><br/>And combining Asian ingredients and Chinese cooking techniques, in a burger?! Something that is not a bun or a Bao?! WOW! That’s admirable! 👏<br/><br/>The Kung Fu Master, after mindful studying ingredients, countless trial and error and learning experience, tasting sessions (and what I would assume not that awesome palette flavours too 😂), have created unique Asian Burgers, representing the Kung Fu discipline so well! Yes, these guys have studied well and their patience has definitely be worth it, bringing to us one of the best Asian fusions I’ve tried, combining Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Thai cuisines!<br/><br/>The place is located in the heart of South Yarra and if you’re passing by and take a glance to the inside, it’s hard not to feel invited to get in! Besides being having a logo right at the front and a slogan saying ‘burgers are life’, the whole place inspires vibes of a little wood Japanese shelter🏯 it also has an incredible board like most burger places have these days, illustrating the thematic place and Jung Fu ethos. But they actually take things a bit further here and have board games on some tables and some more that you can ask to make your Asian experience even more peculiar!<br/><br/>They gave several seats inside in a straight row on the right and a couple outside in the much busy street of South Yarra - seriously, it couldn’t be more perfectly located near Prahran market! Went I arrived there were just 2 people inside but during the time I was there, there were many in and out!<br/><br/>In terms if menu itself, I found quite challenging to choose as they had not only the usual proteins of beef, chicken thigh and pork but also seafood options of tempura soft-shell crab and shrimps, as well as several vegetarian and vegan options! Plus, the menu item names are very theme appropriate and they are allergen friendly, making every burger you want according to your dietary preferences. Besides vegan cheese the dark charcoal buns are vegan too and even the sauces are very importantly chosen here as they don’t really use average tomato or mustard, and instead they have come with house-made relishes inspired by Chinese sweet-and-sour sauces, as well as Korean chilli, Thai herbs with lemongrass and ginger, and a yuzu-and-lime mayo. They even have a display right at the front with the different options!<br/><br/>Plus not only is the burger menu already a step ahead of most burger places, but they actually also features Japanese snacks that I obviously had to try too! Here’s what I decided to try:<br/><br/>- Beyond The Ultimate - it’s a little beast for sure! It has so many flavours that you will certainly get lost in it 😂 from the size and and the ingredients! It comes in a black charcoal bun as all the vegan burgers do that I personally loved and found it soft and delicious. They even toast it slightly to give it that crunchy taste 👌they use two patties here: one from beyondmeat and a tofu patty. In terms of the size of the patties they are both impressive and give the burger a little massive size to it and the portions are very generous. I personally love beyondmeat and I found the combination of it with the tofu was impressive. Yes, I was actually surprised as I am quite picky with tofu and the flavour because not every place knows how to cook tofu, but here they absolutely nailed it👏 on top and bottom of that you can also find some Kung fu sauce and above the patties it comes with some mushrooms, a double slice of vegan cheese, Japanese mayo, some lettuce, tomato, a pickle and... slices of beetroot and pineapple! (Uuuuuf, that was long 😂). In terms of those toppings I was happy with most of them and I am even not a huge fan of pickles but found they suited perfectly here. I wouldn’t personally add the beetroot but I guess it brings a slight difference of ingredients to the item (although I found that it wasn’t really needed as it has so many distinct things already that then it’s difficult to identity the flavours!). Overall, not the best vegan burger I’ve had but it was definitely an interesting one, and possibly one of the most ‘complex’ ones I’ve tried, packed with endless flavours.<br/><br/>- Flaming Prawn - from the two burgers, this was a favourite! This one I definitely recommend for its unique way of presentation and for the ingredients and way it is built! It is a sautéed king prawn omelette that has some cooked prawns involved in a omelete made right on the spot that dairy free doesn’t contain any milk at all! And surprisingly the best taste is REALLY creamy, soft and good! I’m actually taking that idea for my own cooking as I found that having the prawns involved inside that egg mix creates such an incredible combo of flavours - yum! 👌 it also comes with some Singapore chilli sauce that we opted to take out as I am not the hugest spicy fan and I would prefer to see what the actual taste of the omelette-prawn would be and it comes with some Japanese mayo and the usual tomato and lettuce. I found very interesting the Asian herbs they used and that it came sprinkled with (incredibly tasty!) and the curiously they used some crackers too on top of the omelette 🤭 LOVED IT. Not only it gives a crunchy element to it but the taste is REALLY good and I personally wished it had come with some more so that it could not only look more impressive in terms of size (for more picture purposes 😂) and also because it is actually a really good item!<br/><br/>- Octopus Ball - I also decided to try some of their snacks available that are different than most burger places that only have onion rings, the usual simple or loaded fries (that they also have) or even some new healthy based snacks like eggplant chips. This was the first time that I saw in a burger place Takoyaki - the famous ball-shaped Japanese snack made of a wheat flour-based batter and filled with minced or diced octopus, tempura scraps, pickled ginger, and green onion. It came with Takoyaki sauce, loads of Japanese mayo (waaaaaay too much in my opinion- usually it only comes with a slight pour of mayo but here the bottle they use to pour is BIG and it comes with a lot). I would definitely prefer to have less of it as it takes away the protagonism of the octopus balls and I think it would be a good option to pour less on top and have a side of it for those ones that want more. It also comes with way too many bonito flakes 😂 everything topping wise seems excessive actually and I think things would work much better with less so that you can actually enjoy the Takoyaki itself. <br/><br/>- Vegetarian Spring Rolls - spring rolls are something that it is quite interesting to evaluate because they can tell a lot of about the quality of food provided. There are many versions of Japanese spring rolls too and I personally always feel more attracted towards the vegetarian ones! So I decided to try them and I can definitely attest that they are GOOD. I liked the fact they weren’t oily again and that had such a crispy outside 👌👏 the filling is very enjoyable too and they have a peculiar mix of vegetables that it’s very popular to see but I definitely approve! (I actually am not sure what is inside but it sure tasted different than others I’ve tried!). It comes in a portion of 3 and with a sweet and sour sauce that I wasn’t much of a fan. You cannot go wrong with that crunchy deliciousness, you just can’t 😍<br/><br/>- Purple Sweet Potato Croquette - LOVED IT. But again, I have to be honest and say that I’m biased as I am a huge sweet potato lover and I absolutely love these Japanese snacks 😂 So it’s basically a crumpled croquette that is very crunchy from the outside and not greasy or oily - in fact that is why I loved it so much -   and it comes with a soft mashed purple sweet potato filling that was mouthwatering. My friend wasn’t the hugest fan of it as she found the outside quiet starchy and a bit difficult to actually make it enjoyable to chew it but I personally had no issues and I absolutely loved it. I have tried several versions of the sweet potato item and I must say that I really liked this version although I agree that if it was slightly less starchy and instead just a bit more crumbly it might have been even more pleasant ☺️ but overall portion size is good and the size of the croquettes are good too - would recommend!<br/><br/>- Nutella and Oreo Milkshake - my friend had this milkshake and I have to say that I really wanted to try because it looked impressive (but avoided it just due to the lactose content of the icecream they use to make it and I personally know I react to it). And it looked impressive not only from the size of it but the actual taste as she said to me was impressive and ‘you just can’t go wrong with Nutella and Oreo’. It actually comes with Oreo crumbles pieces inside and woooooow 😍 if you feel like dessert or a little sweet you can definitely go for this one or also what we had below 🤭<br/><br/>- Classic Banana Fritter with Matcha Icecream - I just couldn’t resist having the typical fried banana Japanese snack with the one and only iconic matcha in this case in form of an icecream. The fried banana is made right in the spot and they basically cut a large banana into big slices and they deep fry and plate it. The matcha icecream is a soft serve they have and comes in a glass cup - not a massive portion but it suits perfectly with the amount of banana. I found the banana to be a lovely crispy treat,l and it was actually very warm on the inside (so be careful and don’t get too excited putting everything in your mouth like I did with the excitement 😂). We added some syrup drizzled all over it (getting that pouring shot 👌) and I definitely almost recommend drenching it in it 😂 actually amazing amazing combo and the fried banana pairs perfectly with the sweet syrup. My friend also absolutely loved the matcha ice cream and found it quite soft and with a gently matcha taste. Overall even though the icecream portion could be bigger, this is not an icecream alone and they have that option seperately and you have to think of this as a combo snack so I think it’s a very well served dessert and would certainly have again!<br/><br/>I unconditionally loved this places and its creativity! The whole menu and details are very well thought and showed that they care about stepping up the usual burger game and coming up with innovative ways of presentation and distinct menu options and I rate it as a 5 mostly because of that. The dessert is quite unique too and even though there are some other Japanese restaurants that have them, I haven’t seen any other burger place that features it either. Worth definitely paying a visit!

Kung Fu Burger is not your average burger joint but boy is it a place to go! Their asian flavours infused into burgers are simply memorable. The menu offers a wide range of proteins - pulled pork, grass fed beef, soft shell crab, chicken and tofu. The sauces are also not basic like ketchup and mustard but are instead very true to asian roots such as takoyaki sauce, Peking duck sauce or yuzu and lime mayo. <br/>🍴burgers - Thai boxer, respect the classic, minister chicken. Minister chicken was crispy and flavourful. The yuzu and lime mayo packs a zesty punch. The Thai boxer was again different and had juicy pulled pork. Sides - Japanese curry fries and Bruce fries. Both very different loaded fries to what I’ve had before. Both Japanese inspired flavours and are good share dishes.<br/>💁🏼‍♀️ the staff are very friendly.
David Girvan
Best burgers in Melbourne. Staff are always friendly. Venue is warm & inviting. Repeat customer. Definitely recommend.
Food Junkie
Great burger, juicy beef patty, brioche buns. They have a variety of Asian inspired twists on a burger. Such as with kimchi or teriyaki’s sauce. They also have my favourite sweet potato chips! Yum!
Derrick Lim
Unique and well thought of burgers, you can all sorts of add-ons as well, we tried adding cheese bacon and jalapeño, and that is the best. Reasonable price and quick service. Will definitely be back! Only restaurant that saves me a decent meal for a late night out. Within the budget and fancy food.

I’m starting to lose trust for zomato. This is no where near a 4.5. It has a unique flavour and the patty does taste good, however the combo of fillings just don’t work that well. Also ordered loaded fries which were dry and lack lustre. Disappointed wouldn’t return.

Kung Fu burger is a small burger place on Chapel St, and since we were in the area, we decided to give it a go. <br/>We came at around 4 in the afternoon, and it was basically empty. We ordered Minister Chicken, a small serving of sweet potato fries as well as banana fritter, to share between the two of us. The prices were very affordable, and since we also had an EatClub coupon (25% off) it was very much worth the price! <br/>The Minister Chicken burger was amazing! The chicken was crispy and juicy, and the burger had an extra crunch because of the Japanese pickles. The burger was also slightly spicy, which made it even better in my opinion! <br/>Next was the sweet potato fries, which were slightly sweet and nice to eat. I preferred to not dip them in tomato sauce, because otherwise it just tasted like normal potato fries, but it wasn’t too bad either way. <br/>Banana fritter was very much how you expected it to be- fried banana drizzled with syrup. I regretted not ordering extra ice cream, so maybe I’ll do that next time. <br/>The staff who served us was very friendly which contributed to our good experience. We left feeling very content. I’d definitely come back to try other burgers if I’m in the area next time!

These guys like to call themselves Asian Burger Specialists and they definitely aren't wrong! Every time I visit is just as good as the last. You can't go wrong with the Minister Chicken but my latest obsession is adding in some beef patties for extra flavour and it's epic!
Hung Huynh
Kung fu burger is dishing out great asian fusion flavoured burgers! i really love the spin of everything they do in terms of joint western and eastern flavors. The kim chi burger was hectic!
Gabrielle
I usually had the takeouts for Kung fu burger. The picture I took was when I was actually in the restaurant. The burgers are very big compared to other fast food restaurant. I think the classic might be the best flavour for the burger.
TXY
I ordered the chicken burger from the special menu and it tasty and juicy. The burgers were served in big portions. Highly recommend this place if you are craving for burgers!

This is a very delayed review when Fung Fu Burger had a pop up at HAWR Food Centre. So please be advised my comments and feedback is based on it's pop up shop. Thank you.<br/><br/>🔆LOCATION🔆<br/>HWKR Food Centre is located on A'Beckett Street. Its a large premise with quite a number of different Asian cafe/dessert options. You can also enter via LaTrobe street, which is a quicker short cut =)<br/><br/>🔆SERVICE🔆<br/>The wait staff at HWKR are very friendly and helpful. They provide good tips and sometimes they would come around and take drink orders, its not consistent, as other times we have to go order ourselves. Whichever place you order your food from, you get a buzzer, as when your food is ready, the buzzer will make a noise and light up and you go up to the counter and pick up your order.<br/><br/>🔆MENU/PRICE🔆<br/><br/>Minister Chicken Burger - Juicy Crispy Chicken, Yuzu & Lime Mayo, Japanese Pickle, Tomato, Lettuce, $13.50<br/><br/>Sweet Potato Chips (small), $5.00<br/><br/>🔆VERDICT🔆<br/>Delicious Chicken Burger! Wow! Just as it's described - it was very crispy and very juicy! Yum!! <br/>I wasn't too keen on the tomato, it felt odd and out of place. For the size of the burger, the price is a bit steep. Hence why my rating is a 4 star instead of 5 star.<br/><br/>The sweet potato chips were absolutely delicious! I couldn't get enough of them. Again for the very minimal small serving, I thought $5 was a little pricey.  Besides the price, both the chicken burger and sweet potato was very yummy!
Lauren Pinch
Kung Fu burger is a small place with BIG burgers.&nbsp; I was surprised how big the burgers were and the sauces are surprisingly good.&nbsp; They also do a matcha ice cream which is a great way to finish the meal.&nbsp; Well played Kung Fu, well played indeed.

It was only yesterday that I said I had never had a burger above average. Then I come to Kung Fu Burger and order the Gangnam Style burger and I’m blown away. NEW FAVE! Juicy beef patty with kimchi, Asian slaw, Korean mayo and melted cheese. So much taste and some spice, ahhh so good. The staff are really friendly and I recommend this burger!
Bernard Haylen
Fresh and delicious beef and chicken burgers. Friendly and fast service. We came here after a night out and they provided with 11/10 service and food! Everything was absolutely beautifully cooked and perfectly seasoned/sauced! Such beautiful people working here too! Absolute angels
Harley Stafford
Some of Melbourne’s best burgers with Asian-inspired flavours! From wasabi-beef, to soft shell crab and their vegetarian offering with a deep-fried tofu patty & portobello mushroom!
Melbourne.Food
Asian burger specialists! The guys at Kung Fu have created a beautiful fusion burger place with so many exciting flavours! With classics like Gangnam style (pun intended) and Minister chicken these guys have become a staple of Chapel street.  Try their chicken ribs if you haven't yet! The minion approves!
Cludy Foodie
I was really curious as I have never tried burgers with an Asian influence before and I wasn't disappointed.<br/><br/>I ordered the Gangnam Style Burger, Sweet Potato Fries and the Spring Rolls. The bun was soft with a big patty and some delicious kim chi. The kim chi taste is quite strong but I loved that! Sweet potato fries +mayo sauce was a great side dish. Spring rolls are average.<br/><br/>Service was fast and the servings quite big. Prices are reasonable and you get to try some unique burgers.<br/><br/>All in all a quite good experience.
Adam Sarfati
Asian inspired burgers are a fantastic twist on traditional burgers. Quality beef and full of flavour. Worth a look if you are in Chapel St for sure!
Ferins
Well we were keen to find a milkshake place that open till late but we did not keen when we found many pieces of mini foils that we thought was oreo pieces in our oreo nutella milk shake. It was good until I found this. So be aware.

Great burgers with an asian touch, the spices and sauces fit very well. We also tried the chips and they were great, huge portions and amazing flavours.

Recently re visiting the South Yarra area I had come across Kung Fu Burger<br/>the Bright Yellow walls and Excellent logo made me want to go in and see what it was all about<br/><br/>The menu consisted of various burgers, Beef, Chicken, Crab, Pork<br/>The thing that really caught my eye was some of the burgers had the addition of Kim Chi and I absolutely love Kim chi<br/><br/>The food is excellent, I had the the Minister Chicken burger and fries<br/>It was absolutely delicious!<br/>A little bit spicy and was a very generous serving<br/><br/>I have since been back with my friend and the food was again Excellent<br/>My friend is always asking me if I want to go to Kung Fu Burger for dinner now
Stephanie Yeoh
I have always wanted to come here to try their burgers coz the menu had an Asian twist to it. And when the time finally came to try their burgers, I was less than impressed.<br/><br/>The burgers ordered were:-<br/><br/>Gangnam Style - This burger was average, none of us could taste anything else except for the kimchi. It overpowered everything else that was in the burger, it's not a well-balanced burger.<br/><br/>Oh Crab! - There was nothing really wrong with this burger but at the same time, there was not anything really good about it either. The tempura soft shell crab was done well but lacked seasoning, if you were to eat it by itself, you would have definitely found it bland. If it wasn't for the wasabi mayo helping to combine everything in the burger, it would have been pretty bland. <br/><br/>Thai Boxer - This burger was probably the best out of the three as the pulled pork was really flavourful. My only negative is the bun is too soft to hold the pulled pork in the burger together that everything gets messy and hard to eat.<br/><br/>We also tried the house special of Japanese curry chips with added chicken, this was a bit of a letdown. The curry and chicken by itself was tasty but the thick cut chips did nothing for this dish. The chips did not pair well with the curry as it did soak in much of the curry, they should have used shoe string fries for this dish as it would have been much better. <br/><br/>Would I be in a hurry to come back here? Probably not.

The burgers here are a little different to other places but there are also some reassuring harks back to the good ol days of the classic Aussie hamburger . All in all the Gangnam Style burg is the most interesting with the addition of kimchi . Satisfying little place .
Nay Nay
If you are a fan if burgers do yourself a favour and get to Kung Fu Burger. Located on chapel street an Asian style burger joint which hits the mark. The staff are lovely and they know how to make a mean burger! Great patty, bun filling and of course sauce. Along with burgers they offer a lot of great side dishes...
Li-yin Goh
Their minister chicken burger is the best if you are in the mood for fried chicken. They also have green tea ice cream. Prices are reasonable - 12.5 for large burger , Add $8 for beer Bd chips
Food Josh
Great flavour, got to see how they prepare their food from the wok itself! The Asian inspiration for the burgers is fantastic and a great twist on traditional burgers with EXPLOSIVE flavour! Highly recommend
Tj Peco
That kimchi burger was mind blowing. Really like the mixture of texture and flavours. The side of chicken and chips is great value and compliments any of the burgers very well
Munching With Mel
Rating: 4<br/><br/>Finally, a burger joint has beaten my top burger joint. These are now my personally favourite burgers in town - definitely recommend! <br/><br/>We ate at the HWKR centre, where staff were friendly & alert, and the hang out spot is comfy and funky. <br/><br/>I ordered the Minister Chicken, in which I absolutely loved every element of it: the pickles, SUPER crispy coating, juicy chicken, seasoned mayo, and a buttery bun. They all worked in harmony and the flavours were very playful in the mouth. <br/><br/>I also recommend the Wasa Beef, something new and a well-executed fusion food. This was just as good as the chicken burger. The beef was so plump and juicy, and perfectly seasoned. I loved the addition of the onion ring, gives it an extra texture and who doesn’t love onion rings? The wasabi mayo was the key element of the dish, with a kick in the mouth but not to strong, but elevating the taste of the burger to the next level. I am slowly growing on the wasabi kick, but it was personally a bit too strong for my palette haha! <br/><br/>We also tried Bruce’s chips, which has pulled pork, siracha mayo, jalapeños, spring onion and bonito flakes. I found it tasty, but I was getting mixed feelings about combining multiple cultural ingredients together such as the bonito flakes. Without it would have been better. To be honest, it tasted similar to all loaded fried I have had from popular food trucks. <br/><br/>Will come back for this mouthwatering meal.<br/><br/>---- <br/>Came back to the official main store in South Yarra and it did not disappoint me. Wasabi burger was just as good, maybe a tad greasier than my previous experience. <br/><br/>I tried their fried prawn burger which was very interesting to eat. The sauteed King Prawn Omelette was a statement for juiciness and creaminess. The prawn was so succulent which paired so well with the egg around it. The Japanese mayo and Singapore Chilli Sauce gave the seafood that extra kick and was yummy. In terms of it in a burger, I'd have to think about that. I would prefer the elements of the Flaming Prawn without the Burger Buns.

Eat club voucher so decided to give this burger place a try. The popcorn chicken was amazing, juicy and crispy. Not a fan of the Kung fu burger, it was sweet and spicy and I do not enjoy sweet burgers. However the chicken burgers they were making for another customer looked so good and wished I had ordered one instead. I’d be back but only to eat the chicken and chicken burger.
Naveed Kazi
Had lunch here the other day, running between meetings. The staff here were friendly and helpful in making suggestions. The burger was great!, really soft bun, fresh vegetables and a juicy patty to go with it. The special sauce they have is a smash and really compliments the burger well. Maybe just a suggestion? Have a special dipping sauce for your fries?, other than the regular ketchup etc... that would really top it off. Well Done fellas!
Poopglobal
Kung Fu Burger<br/><br/>Best burger so far ! Nice small shop, great AC , the staff was very nice and helpful. I got the "Jumbo Aussie" and some fries , sooooo good. I think the ketchup had cloves in it , interesting and a nice taste. <br/><br/>The burger was very well made and you could tell the chef enjoys what he does. I know it's just a burger but if you can't make a "burger" look good and taste good then in my opinion you have no place cooking. <br/><br/>I will definitely be back to this Melbourne gem. <br/><br/>Thank you Kung Fu Burger <br/><br/>Jumbo Aussie Rule $16Classic Plus Extra 210g Grass Fed Beef Patty, Beetroot, Bacon, Egg

Love the beef burgers here. One of the best burger places around Chapel street. Friendly service and good vibes all around. Will be back for more.
JZQQ
To be honest, their matcha soft serve is the most expensive and worse taste I've found in Australia! Haven't tried their burger, maybe good.
Om Nom Nom
I absolutely LOVE this place. The burgers are extremely good value and soooo delicious. I wish the wasabi mayo had more of a kick but I totally understand why it's as mild as it is. It's within walking distance of where I work now so I suspect I'm going to be here a lot!

Ordered the classic burger with sweet potato fries and I rate my overall experience a 9/10 <br/>The burger tasted different to most classic burgers due to the “Kung-fu” sauce. It was strange at first but it’s what gives it a delicious flavour. <br/>The negative would be how juicy the burger is and would be more appropriate to eat with a knife and fork!
HildaLuv2Eat
Their burgers are amazing and mind-blowing! Omg it's officially one of my fav burger places in town. Staff are nice and friendly, giving you helpful suggestion to find which taste you want. We ordered a chicken burger in combo with a canned drink and chips, a soft shell crab burger, and a sweet potato chips on the house because of some reasons. The adequate flavourful mayo and the juicy tender meat made their burger stood out so much, the chicken and soft shell crab were fried to crispy which gave moisture when I bite down the burger. The yuzu and lime mayo and wasabi mayo were good to empower the taste of the burger too, and the meat became more yummy! <br/><br/>You need to try if you haven't...surely cannot be missed!

I went to this restaurant because it had good reviews. The food was good in fact better that I thought to be a fast food place. The fusion with Asian flavours made this something different that just a burger. The burgers are really big, I couldn’t finish mine.

Tasty no fuss Asian inspired fusion burgers. Great for a quick bite and are looking for some indulgent flavours. Conveniently located on Chapel st.

Had the tofu burger with sweet potato chips.<br/>Delicious! <br/>Walking past, I didn't think much of this place, but the mushrooms, crispy tofu and the sauce were all really good! Would love to see another veggie option on the menu :)

My partner and I always walked pass the store and loved its awesome scent but never really walked in. <br/>Finally we have the chance to have a try. We were so impressed with the food quality and the ideas of Asian fushion. The ingredients are in such a good balance, no matter their flavor or texture. <br/>Fried chicken is really crispy outside, also super juicy and tender inside. We can also tell the chef spent lots of time and efforts into preparing different sauces. Sauce is really the soul of a nice burger. <br/>The vibe in store is also nice and funky. All the details in the menu and graffiti are well integrated. LOVE!!!

I went to this restaurant for the good rating 4.6 but I am a little disappointed I didn't like the chips, the 2 burger was avarage, the service is very nice. We ate the Gamham style and Buddha temple burger

Kung Fu Burger is the product of a love for both Asian food and burgers, and as you might expect, there are clear signs of Asian inspiration in the menu.

4.0<br/><br/>A small fusion burger joint painted yellow.<br/><br/>Burgers are great with a toasted brioche bun. Meat is fresh and burger is firm. The takoyaki is well cooked and drenched in kewpie mayo and sauce.<br/><br/>Beer battered thick cut chips are crispy and the loaded fries are filling and flavoursome. Recommend the special curry chips which come with the carrot and raddish.<br/><br/>Loved the sweet potato fries that were crispy and seasoned with chicken salt.<br/><br/>The pulled pork taco is average, meat was kind of dry but the salads added flavour.<br/><br/>

I wouldn’t say Kung Fu Burger is bad, but it is quite average as far as burgers go. I had the vegetarian burger (Buddha Temple) and I didn’t find there to be anything extraordinary about it. The sauce was good, but it was just really nice sauce drizzled over an otherwise average burger so it unfortunately didn’t add the ‘wow’ factor I was hoping for. I was also expecting that there would be some Asian flavour fused into the burger. Again, it was just an ordinary burger . I definitely didn’t get that ‘fusion’ sense. Perhaps the other burgers are better. <br/>The chips were nice. I didn’t particularly enjoy the chicken bites. <br/>The food is affordable and the location is really nice and central (you can sit outside and watch the trams go by, which is quite pleasant). This probably isn’t enough to compel me to go back though.
Picky
Good price, taste average. Had the minister chicken burger. Taste alright, nothing surprise. Salad for the burger taste... Interesting...Not sure will come back in the future
Linda
Kudos for creativity and tasty flavours for sure! Loved the Asian spin and so pleased it was spun right! Worth a trip and trial if this is your thing. Generous in serving so don’t be tempted to over order.

Food was nice and service was great!! Recommend the chicken burger (too good I forgot to take a photo) and this Peking duck taco was amazing too!
Vivian
We headed into Kung Fu burgers the other night for a cheat meal. I have heard so many great things about this burger joint especially their infusion of Asian flavours into their burger menu . We ordered the jumbo aussie rule minus one beef patty and the Gangnam style . We really liked the meat patties which were in both burgers, it was juicy and cooked perfectly, it tasted like it was also marinated . The addition of the kimchi in the gangnam style burger was genius, definitely the favourite burger out of the two <br/><br/>The takoyaki ( octopus balls) were generous in serving and creamy , the octopus was not fishy but not over powered by the sauces. The bruce chips was a nice take on loaded fries, the sriracha sauce gave the fries a nice chilli kick , there was a perfect amount of heat. The chicken bites were tender and crunchy at the same time, nothing to fault <br/><br/>Thanks for having us!
The High Tea Girl
If you’re looking for a really good burger place in Melbourne you have found it at Kung Fu Burger. Burgers are super tasty! They do some pretty cool specials too (Japanese curry loaded fries-how fantastic is that!). The staff here are really friendly and if you need any variations they are only too happy to accommodate.
Good Food Good Mood
UPDATE we were invited back to Kung Fu this week to try some of their new menu items. We were pleased to see their liquor licence has come through and my dining companion got straight on to a fruity ale paired with the pulled pork tacos. I was busy falling in love with the chicken bites which are deliciously coated in Chinese five spice and we tried these with the sticky sauce. The sticky sauce is to accompany the new ribs on the menu and is a perfect balance of spicy and sweet. <br/><br/>We also had the sweet potato fries which are ingeniously beer battered and probably the best I’d ever had. It really gave them an extra crispness. Now for the main event. I adored the charcoal bun on my crispy chicken burger. They came out looking like superstars and I couldn’t wait to tuck in. The yuzu and lime mayo was absolutely phenomenal. It really elevated the burger. I had to revisit the Oreo Nutella shake given I was so impressed with it last time and it was just as good as I remember. Love the music here too, high probability of hearing the uber catchy Kung fu fighting! <br/><br/>————————————————————<br/>Original review<br/>I love a good burg, and was lucky enough to be invited to check out the new Asian inspired burgers at the recently opened Kung Fu conveniently location on chapel st. The decor is bright and inviting and Bruce Lee influenced. The friendly and chatty chef and part owner has spent years working in the industry and is finally realising his dream of fronting his own venture. His special twists on standard burger fare makes the menu deliciously exciting.<br/>My dining companion chowed down on the Bruce’s chips which had Benito flakes, siracha mayo and pulled pork which he was absolutely loving while I sat there sipping my Oreo Nutella shake. Mmmm. He also sampled the matcha red bean shake for something different. Quite an interesting and unique beverage.<br/>We tried the beef burger and the soft shell crab which is pretty cool as you definitely won’t find a whole crab burger at a standard burger joint. It came with a wasabi mayo, I’ve said time and time again it’s the sauces that make the dishes. Now I don’t want to say I told you so but this proved right once more. Delightful. <br/>Keep Kung Fu in mind after you stumble out of the clubs on a Friday or Saturday as they are open until the early hours of the morning. Oh and it just keeps getting better, they are about to be granted a liquor licence.. 🥋🍔🥋

We were invited back today to check out the a few of the other items on the menu. I knew what I wanted immediately when my eyes gazed on the Peking pork tacos. These were made with generously piled pulled pork with pickled vegetables and a solid Peking (duck) sauce. An absolutely tasty burger alternative. I also tried the popcorn chicken which was nicely seasoned and served with mayo and some of the sweet spicy rib sauce. Tasty little poppers. <br/><br/>Since our last visit the liquor license has come through and they have a range of beer by the bottle and two on tap. I tried the Hop Spliced XPA which was a fruity tasty ale best served with fusion foods. <br/><br/>My dining buddy made quick work on the chicken burger and Oreo shake plus the beer battered sweet potato fries. <br/><br/>Certainly some great additions to this fusion burger venue. <br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/>Previous Review:<br/>Despite all attempts I couldn’t bring myself to not mention something about that Kung Fu Fighting song in this review and possible other musical references further on 🎧. I do apologise...<br/><br/>Kung Fu Burgers was just 7 weeks young when we were invited to come along and sample their menu. Located in a bit of a dust food hub on chapel street Kung Fu menu has been uniquely designed around asian fusion which was evident in most menu items. The burger bar itself is light and bright with yellows and reds and cute burger neon imagery. <br/><br/>The menu itself has got most meats covered with beef, pork, chicken and a delicious soft shell crab burger. I sneaked a glimpse at the soft shell crab burger from other posts before I arrived so that was definitely on the cards. There is also the tofu burger option for those on a meat restricted diet. <br/><br/>We started with the yummy popcorn chicken, which came with devilishly delicious dipping mayo. Add to that the awesome crispy sweet potato fries which had a lite beer batter and some really great seasoning that I can’t put a name on. I also contributed quite substantially to the demolition of their signature chips, Bruce’s chips, which packed a plenty of heat from siracha mayo, jalapeño, and a tasty pulled pork. Mr Lee himself should felt proud to have had this dish named after him. <br/><br/>Good Food Good Mood ordered the chicken burger which came out pretty as a picture on a charcoal bun with plenty of yazu and lime mayo. She demolished this burger with great gusto which I can only read as a good sign. I chose the Gangnam Style beef (you can start humming that tune now as we did while in the restaurant 🎤🎧). This came with kimchi pickled vegetables, Korean mayo, cheese and a fat boy beef patty cooked to medium. It was a sexy burger and full of flavour. It’s definitely one to grab a few napkins for or be prepared to lick the yummy juices from your hands). By contrast Kelisi let me try her crunchy yummy soft shell crab burger which had a wasabi mayo (different mayo again 👍🏼) and was perhaps the easiest of the three to eat. I’d suggest not many of the competition in the burger market nearby would have a soft shell crab option and this is the standout burger for me on the Kung Fu Burgers menu.<br/><br/>The Oreo shake was good and we also tried the matcha/ red bean shake option which I hadn’t seen combined before but was tasty but not overpowering on matcha. <br/><br/>Really friendly passionate staff here which we observed from their interactions with paying customers. They offer gift vouchers for those hard to buy for burger fans. They are soon hoping to get a alcohol license and then plan to offer unique brews from Stockade Brew Co on tap in the not too distant future... bring it on I say.
Maria Condello
Was skeptical to try the food here as the ingredients were a bit unusual but it really exceeded my expectations!! My husband and I always order peking duck so the tacos with pulled pork blew us away! The meat was so tender and the peking duck flavour was fantastic! Spring rolls are also noteworthy with nice, crispy pastry. <br/>Limited parking on Chapel Street. Venue is nice, clean and a decent amount of seating inside.

This little burger joint is located in South Yarra. Tbh, I came here with low expectation.. just because I have a voucher to redeem lol. Apparently, it’s an asian fusion burger joint (?) as they have this ‘Gangnam style burger’ on their menu.<br/><br/>I had their ‘respect the classic’ burger. And... it was YUM! The bun was soft, patty was fresh and juicy, generous fresh salads, yummy mayonnaise and in a big serving!<br/><br/>Friendly staff as well! :)
Urban Cocktail
Taste , colourful & yum for that Asian swing on burgers 🍔 did not disappoint at all . Sit relax and tuck into a very enjoyable slice of something different oh and this sweet potatoes fries 🍟 ✌️💯
Jamie
A great little place for Asian-inspired burgers, or just burgers in general! For the price that they are (especially since they are regularly on Eat Club), the burgers are packed full of deliciousness and a generous size. Have been here twice already, devouring four different types of burgers between my partner and I and we have yet to be disappointed by one! Staff are also lovely, attentive and fast.<br/>Lovely sauce, fresh tasty ingredients, two delicious buns and it all balances together; perfection. <br/>The sides are also just as tasty as the burgers. We’ve tried different types of loaded fries and their fried chicken bites - always make sure to check out their specials which can be found written on a huge roll of paper on the wall to the left of the counter. <br/>Have also tried both their shakes and they are also solid; full of flavour, great size, and complement the burgers and sides beautifully. It works well to cleanse the palate and wash down the food. Nothing is a let down here!
Tinmans Treats
I was initially sceptical of an Asian themed burger joint… would it be too naff?<br/> <br/>They have significantly improved their offering since they first opened. These kind of places need to take their time, work out what works and what doesn’t. I’m glad they have tweaked and refined their product because the quality and taste of the food is great.<br/> <br/>This time I went as part of a collab. I personally enjoyed the Japanese curry loaded fries with cheese, pickled veg and spring onions, topped with fried chicken bites. So tasty. The sweet potato fries were moreish. Burgers were pretty good. I had the limited edition one with the wasabi beef. The peppery horseradish was prominent but not overbearing. Risky but it pays off.<br/> <br/>There’s a lot of yellow and red in this store, which might resemble another burger place, but there is no comparison. Kung Fu will knock you out.<br/> <br/>Friendly staff, quick service, decent output. “Kung Fu Sing? It’s the King” – The Regurgitator<br/>

Kung Fu Burger has some of the friendliest and most hospitable staff I’ve ever encountered, particularly the lovely gentleman, Surjin. They treat you like you’re having dinner with them at their home. <br/><br/>The food is top notch, yet affordable with creative flavours, high quality ingredients and generous servings. You can see the passion they impart to everything they do. I love how the owner encourages the staff to cook dishes from their hometowns for the weekly specials.<br/><br/>They have definitely turned me into a loyal customer!
Rowan Bourke
No wonder this place has amazing reviews. If you haven’t been, do yourself a favour and get yourself one of their juicy burgers. The chicken is also amazing and thick shakes top it off perfectly. I had high expectations which were called and raised. Well done.
Miss_ZXC
the patties seem overfried but they are not. patties are special and delicious. this is my first time to try the burger with kimchi. so yum.<br/>burgers make people feel full and satisfied.<br/><br/>
Connie
Loved the burgers and shakes here ! That matcha red bean shake was honestly one of the best milkshakes I’ve ever had !! And I loved the TAKOYAKI sides 😍 the Peking duck tacos were also quite nice however I preferred the gangnam burger
Melbourne Food Journey
Kung Fu Burger on Chapel Street are serving up some seriously delicious burgers with an Asian fusion twist AND also these amazing tacos, side dishes such as takoyaki, loaded fries and flavoured chicken bites and funky milkshakes like matcha and red bean and nutella and oreo flavour. These peking pork tacos rocked my taste buds. The tortilla was light and fluffy, the pork and hoisin rich and flavoursome and topped off with the refreshing Asian slaw with a kick of chilli! The sweet potato fries were seriously the best I’ve had in Melbourne, crispy yet soft in the centre and perfectly paired with the wasabi mayo. Great portions, value for money, lovely, friendly staff and delicious food. What are you waiting for? Head to Kung Fu Burger ASAP!<br/>

Great burgers and great sides. The fried chicken here is amazing and one of the best in Melbourne. Both in the burger and the lub lubs and sensational. Kung Fu style Ka Pow! Add them to your list!

Kung-fu burger is a Asian inspired burger joint serving up some great food.<br/>Asian fusion beef burgers, Crispy fried chicken, soft shell crab burgers, pulled pork tacos(recommend these) and many sides.<br/>👌👌👌👌👌

Oh damn. Oh damn. All I can say is oh damn everytime I take a bite! Oh damn. It’s that good. Oh damn. And the prices are even better! Seriously, oh damn!
@foodtom
Kungfu takes Asian inspired burgers to the next level, with such a wide variety of flavors it's hard to go past and not go in for a bite. The burgers are nutritious and full of flavor, and the best thing about coming here with a mate is that you can play connect four whilst waiting for your burgers. Definitely worthwhile checking out.

Burger with a twist.<br/><br/>Ambience: The place isn't spacious, but it doesn't feel crampy. Since it's a burger joint there is an oily feels and smell but not to an extent that is annoying. Overall it's pretty well kept and trendy.<br/><br/>Service: The staffs are really nice, I went there to claim my free burger from the Eatclub app (my code for first users: C6AF1) and it was claimed in no time. The food however took some time as there were only two people working and there were quite some customers. :( All cutleries n napkins are self served at the counter.<br/><br/>Food: I had their "Gangnam Style" aka kimchi burger. I liked it! The kimchi and slaw were so yum, goes so well with the beef patty and the lettuce was fresh and crunchy! The beef patty were pretty nice thickness but unfortunately not very juicy, which was the only downside. The bun was brioche type which was great and overall i really enjoyed it, unlike lots of other burgers I've had where I felt sick after going halfway, this bad boy had me going back from each bite which I really appreciate. The portion is also pretty generous.<br/><br/>I also tried my friend's Minister Chicken burger. It was on a charcoal bun, but tasted just like the usual bun. I like it as well, the chicken was crunchy and pretty thick, the sauce and slaw were yum, though my friend did get sick halfway, which I couldn't really judge for myself.<br/><br/>Also had their chicken bites which came with fries but it was not that good. Some bites were fine but some were quite oily while the fries themselves were just okay, the whole thing kinda smell like old oil though.<br/><br/>Price: The price is very reasonable for the size and taste.<br/><br/>YUM: Gangnam Style!<br/>NAH: none<br/><br/>photos: go to photos section for detailed description<br/><br/>( follow for more!✨)<br/><br/>xx,joelle

I'm not a fan of burgers. But this place had changed my appetite! Enjoyed my burger meal very much. The burger patty was so thick and juicy match with suitable sauces and salad. The bun was so soft too. There are not many choices from the menu but each of the burger are special. I will recommend Bruce chips which top with bonito flakes etc. Really creative combination which you can't find anywhere else in Melbourne i think.
DamoForce Food
Asain fusion burger and sides. Don't knock it till you tried. These are the best fusion burgers in Melbourne!! Triple cheesy was thick as, maybe added one too many patties due to 210g patties. The fried chicken is amazing, really impressed with that.
Sivashankar Sivam
Chanced upon this place while walking along chapel street and the tummy rumbled when I realized these guys serve Asian inspired burgers.<br/><br/>Walked in with my missus and ordered the pork tacos with Peking Duck sauce, their 210g beef “respect the classic” burger and their fried “minister chicken” burger with the mandatory side of chips.<br/><br/>The tacos were great! The only downer was that they could have served it with some variety since they came in taco servings of 3! Mixing up the fillings with different condiments would have done the trick! <br/><br/>The beef burger on the other hand was spot on. Cooked perfectly and the mayo that came along with it complimented the burger! The 210g patty is a force to be reckoned with as well.<br/><br/>And... most burger joints these days serve chicken breasts for their burgers, which in my opinion is a shame. Kung Fu Burger plays their cards differently. It was a juicy wholesome piece of chicken thigh that was delightfully battered, that was mouth watering from the moment I took the first bite! Kudos!<br/><br/>Will be back to check out the other items on the menu for sure!

Bruce Lee, the greatest martial artist to walk the face of the earth. It was not only his fighting abilities, but his approach and philosophy to martial arts which was so admirable. In case you haven’t realised, I’m a HUGE Bruce Lee fan! Judging by the layout of Kung Fu Burger, the owners obviously adore this martial arts legend too.
Peterrabbit
I had the Gangnam style burger where it has Korean kimchi in it. The presentation of the burger was ok, the beef patty was burnt and lacked the flavour. Maybe I should try the chicken burger next time if I am in the area.
Bodybuilder Eats
Hats off to Minister chicken. I’ve literally never tried a burger like this before. You seriously gotta try this off the menu. Great value for money. Awesome friendly customer service. Only parking can be a pain.
Shin
Had the gangnam style, chips and large serving of popcorn chicken. Patty was bland and the bun got too wet due to the kimchi liquid, making it very hard to eat at the end. Chips was standard and the large serving of popcorn chicken was indeed large. Overall, not impressed by what I chose. Will return to try other burgers.
FoodforThought
This hippy shop has a good variety of action-packed burgers. Was particularly impressed with their tacos, which came in a huge portion of 3. The tender pulled pork with BBQ sauce is reminiscent of the<br/>Chinese BBQ pork buns. The batter of the soft shell crab was a bit thick and less appetising. <br/>Overall, nice place and you can be sure you’d be entertained during your meal with games like connect 4 and UNO cards provided.
David Hewitt
Great burgers all around. Big juicy meat patty on a soft bun. Good variety and creativity in making new twists on the humble burger. Great friendly staff. Love the octopus balls! Definitely great value! Love!
Simon Walker
Easily a 4 for flavour. I loved the inclusion of Kim Chi on the Gamgnam Style burger but it made for the burger a little messy to eat... but still totally enjoyable. I reckon Bruce Lee would endorse this place
Split The Bill
The Melbourne burger scene is getting very busy but this one veers off centre and goes with an asian themed burger joint. I had the Gangnam Style burger which had kim chi. The burger was tasty if not a bit wet from the kim chi. Kim chi is wet anyway so it's a tricky conundrum. Chips were cooked fine with an interesting seasoning. If you want asian themed burgers then this place will meet your brief.
Simmyeats.Melb
Really love the concept here, the fusion worked really well with my Mister Chicken burger. The burger was massive and couldn't finish it all! <br/><br/>Ingredients were fresh and the chicken juicy and succulent, however the chicken was a little fatty. Yuko and lime mayo was really good and it added such a nice zing to the burger. I washed this down with their tap beer which was also good, service was great.<br/><br/>I will be back to try their classic burger next time.   I recommend giving this place a go.
Foooodie
Words can’t describe the intense flavors I was fortunate to taste. The first bite and I was like “oh my god”. If I was not on calorie controlled diet I would be here 3 x a week. Seriously my favorite burger place. Friendly staff and nice cosy place for an eat in. <br/><br/>I had the chicken burger . Well done and thank you.
Goodcoffee
Loved every second of my experience here.<br/><br/>Value for money here is ridiculous. The burgers are huge! I ordered the combo: 1 x Chips, 1 x Beer, 1 x Burger and I couldn't get through the chips. I loved the Korean aspect to the burgers as well. It felt like a Korean BBQ in a burger. Dat roasted sesame sauce mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Gabriella Nixon
Amazing 'respect the classic' and 'gangnum style' burgers! Full of flavour and big enough to fill you up! Excellent customer service as well - we will definitely be returning to try everything on the menu!
KLLYXNG
Was interested to see and taste the concept between Asian-inspired flavoured burgers and sauces, and was definitely not disappointed! Tried the Minister Chicken, Gangnam Style, large Sweet Potato fries and the matcha red bean milkshake. <br/>It was a little worrying that at 1:30pm the whole restaurant was empty but nevertheless the flavours were delicious! The chicken burger was definitely juicy and the slaw really acted as a cleansing palette after each bite, it was refreshing to have the pickle as well, adding another layer of flavour. Gangnam style couldn't be faulted either, the kimchi isn't too strong (or strong at all) which I assume is because it could be an acquired taste for many. It tasted fine to us and didn't smell funny, beef patty was thick and cheese melted perfectly on top. Fries were done well and not sickening to eat like grill'd's and the shake wasn't bad either. Wouldn't mind coming back for their soft shell crab burger next time!

Just ate the Minister Chicken burger (+bacon). Expected it to be good, but was actually blown away - one of the nicest chicken burgers I've had. Really liked that they used thigh meat. The mayo, pickles and slaw all complemented each other nicely and were well balanced. The staff were very friendly too.
Asianfoodie
Their patties are definitely thicc and juicy!! My burger in particular (Gangnam Style) was juicy to the MAX because of all the kimchi and sauce haha so it did get a little messy! Perhaps there were too many flavours going on, but I did try the black chicken burger and that was my favourite one!! Also, fries here are thicc as well!!<br/>Honestly had a hard time deciding which burger to pick because they're all asian fusion burgers so I couldn't decide, like soft shell crab or chicken or gangnam style or..??? <br/>Was soo full after this feast!!
Nivi Murugan
Omg! Tasty tasty burgers! The owner even had a chat to us about how he makes his burgers and new creations he had in store. Friendly and kind!<br/>Definitely get the popcorn chicken as well, small serve is enough for two! Burgers are BIG, and full of flavour. Our new burger joint for sure! Highly recommend it!
Steph Castree
Amazing! I actually went in twice in the one day - they had a $4 popcorn chicken and chips special, which was delicious.<br/>I actually went in for the loaded fries, so when the chicken and chips was so good, I went back!<br/>Bruce's Fries are the best thing I have eaten in a long time. Huge serving of chips, with a more than generous amount of pork and sauce. So delicious.<br/>And the guy working the counter remembered me (and my preference for spicy) when I came back! Always a nice touch.<br/>If you want a good feed, get there pronto.
Georgia Nelson
seriously the best burger and best value for money I have experienced in a long long time. I'm actually excited to go back to a my new local favourite !
Hannah Priest
Amazing!! Incredible burgers, super saucy and delicious. Staff very attentive, generous and helpful. My boyfriend was nervous about the spiciness of some of the burgers and the staff member explained and even let him have a taste :) can’t recommend enough.
