I will give you complete information about their positive reviews, ambiance, and of course, my personal experience because what’s a burger blog without a little taste testing?
So, let’s kick things off!
1. The Burger’s Origin
Let’s start with one of my personal favorites The Burger Origin. Now this restaurant might seem simple but don’t judge the book by its cover.
The restaurant has a minimalist ambiance with a combination of black and grey tones. The seating is limited but as most people order from them you will mostly find space to dine in.
Everything about this place is simple and so is the menu. They don’t have hundreds of burger options but the ones they have are definitely enough.
Location:
This burger restaurant is located at 3881 شارع عبد الرحمن الغافقي، 8697، الروضة، الرياض 13213 Saudi Arabia.
Positive Reviews About Burger Origin
There are plenty of topics that are touched in the positive reviews. The first thing that most people mention is that they like the simple and straightforward menu and décor of the restaurant.
People mentioned that this burger restaurant has one of the fastest services in Riyadh and that’s exactly what you want when you visit a burger restaurant.
Their classic beef burger and steak burger have received numerous positive reviews from customers. Many people especially appreciate the locally sourced ingredients, particularly the quality of the meat.
People also mentioned that the restaurant is hygienic and a good option for a quick family meal in Riyadh.
Negative Reviews
If you go through negative reviews for this restaurant you will find that 95% of the reviews are about the potion size and the price.
Most reviews mentioned that the prices are too high compared to the size of their burgers and other dishes like fries.
The remaining 5% of reviews relate to online orders, with customers noting that the restaurant often overlooks special requests. If you want to add or remove something from your burger, it’s frequently delivered as is, without the requested changes.
Must Try Burgers At Burger Origin Riyadh
I tried different burgers but the ones that I loved the most were:
Crispy Chicken Burger: The chicken is tender on the inside and crispy on the outside I loved it completely.
Cherry Burger: if you want something unique then try this burger which has a unique cherry sauce with meat and cheese.
Classic Beef Burger: You just can’t go wrong with the classic. This burger has tons of cheddar cheese and locally sourced meat that is tender and fresh.
My Experience At Burger Origin
Well, looking at the reviews my expectations were a bit high but I knew I would get small burgers so I didn’t expect something big.
I started off with the dynamite shrimp from their starters and to be honest it tasted like it has been frozen for quite some time. You could tell that it wasn’t really fresh but hey that was just the start.
I went with the classic beef burger and I think it made up for the shrimp because the meat was tender, juicy, and delicious and the bun was soft and fresh. The cherry burger was tangy, unique, and new but it wasn’t bad.
The chicken was done right and cooked at the perfect temperature. I think a few changes that would make this place better will be the addition of a few more items on the menu and a slight upgrade to their décor.
Overall I would rate the décor 7/10 and the service and food taste 8/10.

Section B Burgers In Riyadh
This restaurant originated in Jeddah and now has branches all over KSA. Their burgers are simple yet extremely delicious.
If you are looking for chicken, beef, or even vegetarian burgers then Section B should be your next stop.
They have a minimalist décor with brown and black tones and two floors for dining. When you step inside, you will smell fresh buns and burgers all over the place.
Their burger has the most unique names like B, L, and M which can sometimes be confusing too.
Location:
Section B burger restaurant in Riyadh is located at Pr. Turki Alawwal St., Riyadh Saudi Arabia.
Positive Reviews
Positive reviews mostly mention their L burger, the B burger, and their French fries. Most people commented that this is the top spot for burgers in Riyadh.
Customers mentioned that the seasoning of the meat was perfect and the chicken burgers were crispy and soft from the inside.
They have over 9k reviews on Google and even the negative reviews mention that the food is good.
Negative Reviews
Most of the negative reviews for Section B are about their staff and service time especially when you are ordering online.
Customers mentioned that the place is overcrowded and noisy, especially during lunch and dinner hours. Some people commented that their order took more than an hour to arrive.
I saw a lot of comments about the waiters or the staff being rude to customers which definitely needs to be resolved.
People also mentioned that they are satisfied with the quality and taste of food but during delivery, they take forever to deliver your order.
Must Try Burgers At Section B
They have 16 burgers on their menu so I couldn’t try them all at once but from the ones I tried I would recommend:
The B Burger: This is probably their signature burger which is simple but delicious. It comes with an Angus beef patty, cheddar cheese, fresh veggies, and that signature -b sauce which takes it to another level.
W Burger: If you want to try something fancy, go for the W Burger. It includes a Wagyu blend patty topped with gouda cheese and a sweet bacon marmalade.
3×3 Sliders: Can’t decide? No worries! The 3×3 Sliders come with nine mini cheeseburgers and are a total value for money.
My Experience At Section B Riyadh
After reading reviews I headed to this burger restaurant and the first thing I saw was that all the seats were filled. I had to wait for about 20 minutes to get a seat.
I ordered the Fires, B burger, W burger, and 3×3 sliders. The order took about 50 minutes to arrive and the fries were too dry and hard I tried to return them but that wasn’t possible.
The waiters seemed over-occupied because of too many customers.
BUT
I was here for the burgers and the B burger stood the best out of the three I tried. When it arrived I thought it wouldn’t be good because it looked really basic but the sauce they used made all the difference.
The W burger and the 3×3 sliders were nice but I think the prices should have been on the lower side.
For their service, I would give them a 6/10 but for their food and ambiance, they take a 9/10 from me.

Burger Boutique Burger Place In Al Olaya
This restaurant is present in five different countries and its aim is to provide top-notch dining and burger experience to their customers.
Unlike the other burger restaurants which have a minimalist design Burger Boutique has a décor that makes it look and feel premium.
The restaurant has dim lighting and a black-themed interior, complemented by uniquely designed chairs that are both visually appealing and comfortable.
BUT
Premium quality comes with premium prices, and this restaurant is on the higher end compared to others on our list.
Their menu is diverse and has everything from smash burgers and chicken burgers to shrimp and wings.
Burger Boutique Location
They have several branches in Riyadh but the one I visited is located at Musa Ibn Nusair St, Al Olaya, Riyadh 12214, Saudi Arabia.
Positive Reviews
Positive reviews mention different aspects of this burger place but I am going to talk about the most mentioned things.
The first thing that everyone seems to like is their fancy ambiance. Usually, that is not something you expect from a burger restaurant.
On the menu side, people mentioned a few dishes that I think are a must-try. The first one is their solar burger which is in almost every positive. Other dishes that got positive reviews were
- Dynamite Fries
- Maple buffalo shrimp
- chocolate brownie pudding
- Caesar salad
Negative Reviews
Negative reviews for Burger Boutique are also in different categories so let’s see one by one the problems you might face here.
The first thing a lot of people mentioned is that the restaurant doesn’t seem to provide ketchup and mayonnaise even when you ask for it. While I agree keeping your taste is important if customers need something you have to provide them with that.
Next is the service, customers mentioned that the waiters and the managers are sometimes rude which can ruin your whole experience.
I haven’t visited this place before but some frequent visitors did mention that they reduced the size of almost all their dishes and have kept the prices the same which is disappointing.
Some people mentioned that their washrooms need a proper cleaning because the smell inside them is unbearable.
Must Try Burgers At Burger Boutique
While there are many things to try I would stick to burgers and recommend you try:
- Solar Gravity Burger
- Mushroom Swiss Burger
- The Classic Burger
My Experience At Burger Boutique
I visited the Al Olaya branch after going through the happy and furious reviews. Like the people said this wasn’t like your average burger joint. The ambiance makes you feel like you are in a million-dollar place.
I FELT RICH.
The solar burger was right on the spot. The bacon and cheese melt in your mouth. The bun is soft and the seasoning is perfect.
The Sticky Maple Buffalo Shrimp had a mix of sweet and spicy taste but it wasn’t overly spicy. The taste was balanced perfectly for it.
The dynamite fires were a bit too loaded with onions and weren’t something I really liked.
The service was quick and the staff unlike the reviews were friendly and helpful.
Overall I would rate this place 9/10 for its food ambiance and service.
