Hands-down our favorite burger spot in Greensboro! It's not fancy but everything is cooked to order and customizable. The burgers and fries are always done right, the prices are good, and breakfast options are yummy. We usually call ahead for takeout but have also ordered there and eaten on the dog-friendly patio. You can't eat inside and you have to wear a mask at the order and pickup window because the staff are protecting themselves, which I wholeheartedly support!

#SuperHubs googled the best burgers in town, and this place was on the list. So we decided to give it a go. When we arrived, however, we almost decided to leave because there was no parking available. The parking lot right beside this place was for patrons of the restaurant beside it only. And there was no parking on the street. However, luckily, the business across the street from them is closed on Tuesdays so we were able to park there. Therefore, when you go be prepared for the parking hassle.All in all, it was a great experience with the food. The hamburger was really, really good and fresh. And if you go and do not grab you an order of the sweet potato fries, your taste buds will riot!Also, be aware that the dining room is closed, but they do have tables where you can eat outside. And, to order you have to walk up to an outside window and they still require you to wear a mask, even though you’re outside.One of the two reasons that I’m giving them only four stars is, besides the parking situation, they do not have any tea or lemonade. They have only canned drinks and bottled water.I thought it was a pretty good meal, the price was pretty good, and we will probably go back eventually.

The dining is outside, but they had fans and umbrellas, so it was comfortable. They had a cute place for the dogs to be hooked so they could drink water and the owners could eat. They had sidewalk chalk for littles to do while the food was being prepared.This was a fresh beef patty with absolutely amazing sweet potato waffle fries that had this dipping sauce that was fantastic! The Cajun fries were good as well. I had a GF bun that was the best texture ever at a restaurant. Definitely a repeat stop and the location is quiet so it is totally enjoyable.

Great burgers! Loved the sweet potato fries and their dipping sauce was wonderful!

Oh my! We are new to Lindley Park and so glad we found Emma Key's. The food and service are phenomenal! The Sunset Salad is the best in town. The burgers...wow! I can't wait to try more menu items.

Used to be good years ago. I love across the street. You guys really let your self go i got sick off a burger one day 1 and 45 minute wait on a bacon egg and cheese on a Tuesday morning. What in the heck? Great location but pull it together or sell the place to someone who will put it to amazing work. Like it deserves. Like me ;) please get it together.

So far have yet to have an issue here. Food is always prepared the way I requested, done fast for a flat top eatery, and the staff is always nice as well. Have gone here for years and will continue to as long as their open. Looking forward to whenever in location eating is open again but being able to eat outside is still a massive plus. Not to mention the food carries pretty well if you are taking it to go.

I was at work so I decided to order from this place and they took forever. Then they called me and said they were out of the Mac and cheese and did I want a substitute so I did. Minutes later they canceled my order. After waiting almost 2 hours. So last night I decided to try them again. Used Uber eats to deliver and every time I checked my status of my order they said they were behind on orders. Again I placed my order at almost 6 pm and waited for 2 hours because they kept delaying. At almost 8 pm again they sent me a message saying order canceled. I would not waste my money on this place with their poor service. Go spend your money somewhere else. If I could give 0 stars I would. A 1 star is too good for this restaurant. I will NEVER order from you again and I will tell everyone at my work the same. Do not go here!!!!!

Great burgers. I always have to stop when passing through Greensboro. One of the best burger joints in NC. PERIOD.

We stopped for lunch today, staff was super friendly. Service was great, and the pimento patty melt was incredible. Also the garlic rosemary seasoned fries were spot on. 10/10
