Burger Bliss — Restaurant in Melbourne

Located close to Glenhuntly Station, Burger Bliss is a seemingly small spot destined for takeaway, but there's plenty of seats under the warm glow of exposed bulbs and fairylights with the industrial exposed brick walls, in the area in the back.

Being a lovely day we sat out front, indulging in triple stacked burgers and fries dipped in soft serve.

With a huge menu we were spoilt for choice and tried five burgers between us.

Fully Loaded Mozzarella Sticks - Served with that beautiful brisket and mack sauce this is the side you have to get. Just check out that cheese pull.

Big Fried Chicken (Triple Stack) - Fried chicken, cheese, pickles, onion, tomato, lettuce and sriracha mayo. Without a doubt this delicious crispy fried chicken burger is the biggest burger we've ever had, chicken and cheese are among our favourite food groups. Crispy, cheese dreams.

Brisket Burger (+ beef patty) 15 hour slow cooked BBQ brisket, sauerkraut, jalapeño, cheese, onion and smokey BBQ sauce. On the other side this is my personal favourite, juicy flavoursome 15 hour slow cooked BBQ brisket, not something you'd expect at a burger place but rather a food truck or festival pop up. The burger of my weekend dreams. Even with an added patty it's not too meaty, being balanced with sauerkraut and a spice kick from jalapeño.

The Mack Daddy Burger - Two beef patties, house made mack sauce, double cheese, caramelised onion, lettuce and pickles. Burger Bliss's take on the signature McD burger takes the crowd pleaser to the next level, this was his favourite (along with the brisket). As it had a more refined and lighter freshness to it being house made.

For those just after a snack there's cheeseburgers, or options like the junior combo, which includes a Junior Bliss single patty burger - diff from cheeseburger which has onion, ketchup and mustard. Nuggets served with smokey BBQ sauce are also on the menu.

Thanks @burgerblissau for a great meal, I personally tried all but one burger and they were all high quality and delicious. If I had to pick a favourite, definitely that 15hr slow cooked BBQ brisket, while his favourite was The Mack Daddy, though we can never go past a triple stack fried chicken burger...

We have been regular customers at Burger bliss when we lived in Glen huntly and now even after we moved away with the quality they offered all around.

However, the last 3 visits across 4-5 months to the store haven’t been the nicest experiences due to many reasons. 1st visit - I waited outside the store after ordering with Covid restrictions and after 20-30 minutes the staff had to come out and check if I had ordered something as the order lost track. 2nd visit - I stayed inside the store, but once again the take away order seems wasn’t tracked on the systems nor the order handling person. 3rd visit - Realising it will take more than 20 minutes I went to run an errand for this time and when I came back, they realised my order is not being prepared and not passed to the kitchen. As I got stressed, they did a quick job on the burger which was nowhere near the quality they normally offer. The burger came undone when I opened and they put so much sauce that other ingredients kept slipping out of the bun.

I took the time to write this as this is not an issue with the restaurant being busy at a specific time. This also happened after change of management unfortunately.

It’s a clear training of staff and process issue to track and monitor the orders from initial ordering time to delivery whether it’s online...

Delicious and well put together burgers, with generous serving of sides - I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu!

Staff were really friendly and helpful in answering any questions I had, and walked the order out to me outside when it was ready.

I got the Spicy Chicken Burger which came on a fresh brioche bun and had a nice, crispy chicken fillet that was crumbed and fried to perfection. The chipotle sauce and slaw made the burger complete though - they didn't overdo it with the sauce or seasoning of the chicken, which is strangely rare these days.

Their loaded fries were also delicious and very generous - more than enough to share between two. The gravy tasted home made and was rich and thick - I wish they had cheese curds, because if they had made it a Poutine it would've been pretty legit!

Great food and great service - thanks for continuing to put in effort for takeaway orders like mine and caring about the food you put up. Love your work, and I'll see...
