KirbyG’s Diner and Pub (formerly Chevy’s Diner) in McDonough was the readers’ pick for best burger in and around Atlanta. It might be a surprise winner for those unfamiliar with it, but this restaurant’s fans are passionate about the Henry County spot.
YOUR PICKS
1. KirbyG’s Diner and Pub
You say, “KirbyG’s (used to be Chevy’s) in McDonough. Big and juicy burgers on a toasted and buttered bun – Delicious! Vortex used to be my favorite, so Vortex-lovers don’t knock KirbyG’s (because of all the nominations it’s getting) until you’ve tried it. It’s worth the trip” and “By the way no shilling here. Just a lot of locals that LOVE to eat at KirbyG’s…..Do not say bad things unless you have tried it!!! Love the Ole Blue Eyes. I do not have to drive into downtown traffic to get an awesome burger.”

OUR PICKS
1. Bocado
The AJC dining team’s Popular Eats specialist Jon Watson says, “Chef Todd Ginsberg’s burger at Bocado, a double stack of house-ground farm-raised beef, American cheese and house-made pickles served on an H&F bun, stands out amongst the many contenders for Atlanta’s best burger. Ginsberg’s simple preparation and attention to quality ingredients makes this the strongest offering of its kind in town.”

I’ve tried a lot of burgers, and KirbyG’s (formerly Chevy’s) is by far my favorite! I don’t know what they do to them, but they keep getting better (and I’ve tried a different one each time)! The Big Cruisin burger…Huge with yummy cheese! The new one that’s topped with pulled pork….OMG delicious! I just can’t get enough!

I’ve never tried KirbyG’s but they are prostituting Facebook for votes so they might be good.

I have lost 50 pounds in the last year on Weight Watchers. I weigh in and attend meetings every Friday AM. My treat to myself on Saturday is to eat the best hamburger in GA or any other place. You can get this fantastic burger at Kirby G’s in McDonough right off the square. Just ask some of the film crew of Tyler Perry’s Christmas movie just filmed in Henry County and especially on the McDonough Square!!!!!!!!!

U.S. Cafe on Piedmont. The wing sauce on burger option puts it over the top. Fresh sides consolidate these gains.U
