“Believe it or not, I ate there during lunch hour when I worked at MOMA, aeons ago.”
“Besides that I loved this little joint.”
“There's nothing that's really unique about the grilled cheese, but if you're looking for just good old-fashioned grilled cheese and fries, you've come to the right place.”

I used to go their location on 40th Street quite often, until they closed down. I used to love their Burger Heaven Burger with their special sauce, and the service there was pretty good.
So I tried this location since the other one closed. Have to say, service wasn't as good. The burger was still pretty good. It's huge and juicy, and the special sauce compliments it perfectly.
I will not say it is heaven… But I've had worse patty melts in my life. This establishment offers a quick efficient way of getting food into your belly, in a relatively clean setting without the need to arrange creative financing in which to settle your check.
Pizza burger. Coffee shake. Nuff said.
I didn't hate it. Boys seemed to like their burgers. I had the veggie bean soup which was warm and full of beans. Service was okay as was the place.
Great place for a fast lunch, they don't mess around here in terms of quick service.
Burgers and decent. Not amazing but solid and when I asked for it medium-well they actually managed to do so (which is a miracle since most places can only do medium rare or charred). Fries and milk shakes were good to.
A bit pricey but it is in midtown! Why do people on yelp think you can get a full size burger at a sit-down restaurant cheap?
The burgers at the nearby Burger Joint are superior but the wait is about 10 times as long there.
This is an extremely convenient, well located establishment close to the A-train in the heart of midtown, the neighborhood of overpriced, overcrowded establishments that revel in mediocrity.
Burger heaven has both solid breakfast and lunch options. For breakfast, there is tremendous value in their omelette offerings. They are well constructed and super sized. If you are a musclehead looking for your protein fix after hitting the weights, then this is your place. Or if you are just an overweight american looking to supersize your day, then this establishment is a little heaven on your plate. Just be careful or your wide bottom may not fit on the normal sized stools at the counter.
The burgers are relatively big and are decidedly very average. However they hit the spot. Supersize me and get it with the fries. Nice touch that I added an extra pickle, cucumbers and a fresh jalepeno – all at no extra charge. And did I mention that they had A-1 sauce for their burgers? Now that's some tasty taste right there.
I want to give this place a 3.5 and potentially 4 stars for sure because its not crowded, is well located, and is a reliable option for business breakfasts that don't break the bank. However its food is relatively average and as such I need to stay true. 3 stars for you burger heaven, but you have my patronage.
Service was fast and friendly on an afternoon weekday. I ordered the tuna melt which was sooo delicious. It was on perfectly buttered and toasted bread and the cheese was gooey and melted. The curly fries are exactly as expected, crunchy and well seasoned.
Sometimes when you're tired and you need food, you make impulse decisions on where to eat. My girlfriend and I were walking across town from West to East and ran across Burger Heaven. I dig a good diner so I wanted to check it out and they had turkey burgers on the menu so double bonus.
Burger Heaven appears split between two floors and we wound up sitting on the main floor towards the back. The decor is sort of a modern-ish take on a classic diner where the primary color is white though some age is beginning to show in the interior.
At first everything was cool. Our waiter was there immediately, he took our order and all was good as our food arrived. The turkey burger was well done (and accounts for about 1.5 stars of this review). The bun was very tasty and the fries were fresh and crisp. From a food standpoint I have zero complaints. It wasn't extraordinary, but it was good and satisfying.
The problem is, once we got our food our waiter basically vanished. I don't mean this metaphorically, I mean we literally had no idea where he had gone. I needed a drink refill and never got one until I was done eating and someone came to take our plates. The bill sure came fast as our waiter mysteriously reappeared. This is a huge pet peeve of mine and this is where place went from a three star review to a two star.
This isn't a bad place to get a bite in a hurry and the prices are reasonable (for the area) but don't expect the best service.
