Amazing!!! I can’t wait to try the rest of their menu. The quality of the ingredients is far superior than your average small biz burger joint. Everything was super fresh and the portions are huge! Service was kind, when asked for recommendations they gave a breakdown of what is most popular. Can’t express more how much I recommend this place. We got the kofta burger and harissa burger. Both perfect and cooked medium. Comes with these giant potato wedges that are fried and seasoned to perfection. The store was super clean and the layout is very aesthetic. You can tell the owner really cares about the business.

The Greek smash burger and Toasty Tahini are amazing and well spiced!

A guy at a different local burger spot recommended I try this place and they were spot on! These guys know how to spice up their food just right. Try a burger or a pita and you won't leave hungry.

Kofta Burger is an absolutely incredible establishment in Syracuse. I have been wanting to try them since they opened up on James Street and was disappointed when I saw that they had closed. To my surprise, they were planning the move to their current location downtown! Their smash burgers are divinely out of this world. The charred beef patty is juicy and delicious while the toppings of garlic sauce, tomato, parsley, sumac onion, and white cheddar compliment each other perfectly with the tangy smoky sour crunch of freshness that is packed with Middle Eastern flavor. Their chicken burger has got to be one of the best pieces of fried chicken I have ever had. The outside is extremely crispy with the inside being tender and moist with no dryness. The sauce and the crisp crunch of the vegetable toppings pair nicely with the chicken. I am extremely impressed with Kofta Burger. I will be back again and again. Thank you for making a pleasurable dining experience! EDIT: I wanted to add some more photos of the other things I have tried as well as the menu in the window. I highly recommend the Cheeseburger Shawarma too.
