Joia Burger — Restaurant in Washington

Sooooo yummy and fresh. The burger and fries came out perfectly hot and the Joia topping — OMG. I can’t get over the genuinely vibrant taste of the individual components (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle) in the burger (and, optionally, fries) topping. It is the dream child of McDonald’s pickle-y ketchup and In-And-Out’s animal style. Perfect compliment to the richness of the smash burger. Truffle mayo is also absolutely worth the $1 add-on for the regular fries if you’re a truffle fan, though the fries alone were well salted and I’m eager to try them with the Joia topping as well.

Pre-tip price for the single patty burger, fries, and truffle mayo add-on with tax was ~$16.50, which feels beyond fair. The portion is generous (I probably could have shared the fries) and the quality is there. The staff were all also friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Indoors, there’s a cool mix of seating styles, appropriate music volume, and a cooler with assorted beverages (including beers and mini wines). Hours include both lunch (yay!) and dinner.

I can’t wait to try the coming-soon-coffee, assuming the focus on it will be as strong as it is on the burgers and fries. Such a great addition to the neighborhood and I look forward to being a...

#1 fast casual burger in DC. Staff is super friendly and helpful, really cool selection of drinks (alcohol & non-alcohol). I got the single patty w/ Joia topping but will definitely be going for the double patty next time. Didn’t try the fries so can’t comment on those but this burger truly is outstanding. More of a quick dine place (counter service/limited seating) wouldn’t really recommend picking if you want to sit and linger and talk. But great for a quick 20 minute meal over an insane burger you will crave forever. There is a veggie burger but haven’t...

Joia Burger is quite delicious I must say! I ordered a double paddy and my wife ordered a single. We both had canned sodas and fires. It came too just under $50! The two canned sodas alone was $8! This would easily be 5-stars if it wasn't for the nose-bleed pricing! As far as taste is concerned, it's pretty good for smashed burgers! No complaints at all there. Just think of smash burgers mating with a Big Mac; the Joia Burger is born! I just can't get past $48 and some change for two burgers, two fries and two drinks! Will I eat there again, yes... once I...
