This is a review for the Dumont burger with garlic-Parmesan fries–
I'll admit the first time I stopped by a few weeks ago, I only had a hankering for fried potatoes. ordered the garlic- Parmesan fries and wasn't thrilled: they were slightly soggy and did not meet the garlicky goodness quota. however, it was a rainy day, so we'll chalk that one up to Mother Nature.
fast forward to tonight: I stepped it up a notch and ordered a burger with these same garlic-Parmesan Fries on the side, thinking "lawd, help me if they don't get it right this time". clearly, they sensed my frustration and had an insatiable desire to make it up to me by giving me the most offensive–if you love garlic like I do, you know that the more obnoxious, the better; the more eye flutters, the more heartbeats skipped; and mouth watering heaven–heaps of garlic with fresh shaved Parmesan and parsley that actually didn't annoy me, but complemented the fries rather well.
the burger was medium perfection, tender, juicy and hell yeah, GRASS-FED! some beautifully grilled red onions, sweet pickle chips with chipotle mayo on a buttery brioche roll. oh…Dumont Burger was definitely my friend today. maybe this brownie I ate earlier has me feeling some type of way…nah, they hit the spot tonight. (and made up for last time).
DuMont Burger is a cozy joint with a warm atmosphere filled with that greasy fry smell. I ordered the 5oz. DuMont burger (medium) with monterey jack cheese. It was perfect and worth the long wait (our waiter sent us the wrong plates at first). They are very generous on the fries, too! I will definitely come back and try out their other entrees.
My bf's favorite burger place, my favorite soup place. Lol. Well I gotta say they have pretty good burger, but I'm more a soup person whenever there's soup options. Especially for a cold winter day, their creamy soup really warms u up and comfort my heart.
Get there dumont burger! My bf is an expert and picky for pizza and burgers, this is the place he goes whenever he wants burger. It really won't let you down.
We have been this place for bunch of times. I don't think it's warm enough for winter time,I do doubt if they have heater, it's warmer than cold outside but still u don't get cozy warm feeling.
Another thing I don't like is the Asian waiter. Like I said, we have been in this place for bounce of times throughout the year, the Asian waiter is always there and I never seen his happy face. He's always grumpy with his service and always takes our plates away in a hurry even its empty in the restaurant. Makes me feel he just wants us pay and get out of the restaurant. But other waiters or waitresses I have been served there are all cool.
Updating review – i've been ordering from here since they opened in 2005 (and had been going to The original Dumont since it opened) tonight they served us raw rotten brown meat and then I called them for a replacement and they sent another pair of raw old brown meat blobs . It was the first time I've sent anything back in 11 years and I can't believe they didn't replace it with something better . I can't order burgers from here anymore. But I give an extra star for the fries which are still wonderful.
It kills me because this used to be my favorite place in Williamsburg to get burgers.
The food is still good, but I can definitely see a decline from the years. The boozy milkshakes are extraordinary.
The thing to do is order a burger with some onion rings. Make sure you have some chipotle mayo to accompany it.
Sadly, service is not up to par. A party of four seated in a corner area where we aren't even facing each other? Not really the best organization.
The burger here deserves 4 stars, but because I was in the bathroom half of the following day, I have to give it 3. I'm attributing the illness to the rare meat. I ordered medium rare so I guess I could have sent it back, but I love my meat bloody so I wasn't going to complain and then worry about having to eat a hockey puck. Rare over medium well any day of the week.
Despite it not being cooked to my order and making me ill, the burger itself was quite good. Quality bun, nice thick patty, plenty of cheese, and fresh accouterments, it had the making of a top tier burger. The meat, while too rare having the consistency of chop meat, was lightly seasoned, if at all, letting the natural flavors shine through.
The fried pickles here are off the hook. Thinly sliced bread and butter chips are beer battered, friend to a perfect golden brown and served with a side of Chipotle mayo. Pure perfection. Somewhat of a fried pickle connoisseur, I prefer chips to spears, beer batter to cornmeal crusted, and bread and butter to kosher dill. So these were my ideal fried pickle.
The onion rings are also very good. These didn't appear to be beer battered but maybe they were. They had a different consistency than the pickles. Seasoned with salt after frying, they were greasy, salty, and everything I want from an onion ring.
Had I not felt sick the next day I would have given DuMont burger a glowing review. I'd still come back, regardless. I need to try their boozy shakes.
Nothing special. Came here with a group of 4, already not a good idea because the seating is slightly stupid. It was a very uncomfortable dinner. The table and walls were sticky and dirty because my knee touched the wall and my pants got dirty right away. We ordered fried pickles, Mac and cheese, burgers, fries, and onion rings. Everything was ok nothing was special enough for me to come back here. Also the waitress was extremely rude towards the end. She avoided us for a long time and when she gave us the check she threw it down on the table and walked away without saying anything. Won't be back.
Definitely wouldn't recommend this place for burgers. The atmosphere here isn't meant for a sit down meal, unless you come here alone. I came here with three other friends and we were all very uncomfortable. The fried pickles were not that great, Mac and cheese was okay. The burger I ordered had a peppercorn dressing; my first bite I felt the peppercorn was way too overpowering. Also our waitress gave us an attitude when we wanted to split the bill on a few cards. Won't be back here.
