We were at the restaurant the week before Christmas which explained the high sound volume and people volume. One of my parties' hamburgers was on a cold english muffin and the burger was very well done although she had asked if it could be cooked medium. I had the mini burgers and asked for extra pickles when there was just one on each burger and my burgers were also very well done. The expresso martini was excellent. The brussel sprouts were just OK. At first they could not locate my open table reservation, them the found it and we were seated by the entrance door. I always hope with an advance reservation to get a decent table.

The food and portions were on point! Milkshakes to go were amazing as well. Our server was tentative even with it being jam packed! Make reservations because otherwise you’ll wait an hour plus on the weekend and Christmas season. It was the perfect spot after top of the rock!

The girls on the check in desk didn’t have a clue and were not bothered, told us to stand over there and we’d come for you when a table is ready, they forgot about us just like the others that had booked a table were forgotten about. Our server was brilliant and very attentive so gave him a good tip and made sure he kept it all. Very disappointed as the girls on check in are the face of the company and first impressions of Bills burgers was very poor

The food was just like pictures and awesome! It’s in a very popular spot! So definitely make a reservation and get there so they do not bump you! The shakes looked in credible! We saw people who ordered them! The food is portioned large so share the fries and get the burger! Please do go to a burger place and order salad… booo!!! We will go back again! It’s in the heart of all the holiday festive activities!

Overall I would recommend. The service was great - we had 3pm reservations and was seated immediately. Our waitress was fantastic (which says alot for a NYC joint!) The burgers were good, the shakes were as well. The disco fries left a lot to be desired - clearly this is a jersey thing b/c the gravy had an odd taste and texture and the cheese was barely melted and sparse - there was no disco on these fries! But again I wouldn't let this deter you, I just wouldn't order them LOL

Convenient if visiting Rock Center area. Good selection of burgers, served “smash style”. We went during Christmas week so it was packed & extremely noisy. Service was good. Food is fair.
