Where to Visit

Visitor Testimonials (1703)

I hadn’t been to Killer Burger in years and I recall it being a lil greasy but good. On this visit I thought it was even better than I had remembered. Juicy burgers done in a lightly smashed burger style and the fries are great - thick and perfectly cooked. My son and I both got “Pint” burgers in a Classic style - which is a 3.2 ounce patty with pickles, tomato, grilled onions, lettuce, special sauce, cheese, and bacon for $8.99. You can get their Pint Burger Box (Killer Box Lunch) which comes with the Pint burger, some fries and a drink for 10 bucks. So that’s just an extra buck to get the fries and the drink added to your order. That’s available till 4 PM each day. Their regular sized burger is 1/3 lb. One of the better burgers in Portland! And the staff was very friendly.

Always great burgers and fries. This is one of the (if not the) original locations. Make this part of your visit to historic Sellwood.

This was my first time at Killer Burger, but I will be back. Awesome burgers with some truly fun combo options. I had the Fun Guy, and my taste buds were in heaven.

Love killer burger’s food and vibes! Very kind staff here in sellwood. Only knocked stars off because I’d love some outdoor seating in this summer warmth! :) Their lunch deal is the BEST $10 burger fries and drink (strawberry lemonade yum). And their spicy mayo is ADDICTINGLY spicy. What kind of peppers do you guys use??

Love this Killer Burger location. They care and it shows. Look at that beautiful burger. Nom nom

My brother and I have been coming here every Friday for lunch for the past couple of years and it’s been amazing every single time. They always remembered us, made us feel welcomed, and always made delicious food! 10/10 recommend every single time. Thank you for taking such good care of us!

I’ve been going here since this location moved to the Sellwood neighborhood and they never disappoint! I got the pint sized peanut butter pickle burger with fries! I like that they have options on sizes because I’m a tiny woman who couldn’t eat a full sized one! Thank you again for yet another great burger!

Was wanting a good burger and this place did not disappoint! One of the best bacon and blue cheese burgers I’ve had! Ordered online and wished I could have added mushrooms but it wasn’t an option. Even without it was AMAZING!
