Customer Reviews
I made the mistake of ordering the fish and chips here before a trip, and it turned out to be a big disappointment. The fish was dry, bland, and wrapped in a greasy, heavy batter. After forcing myself to eat one piece, I ended up tossing the rest—it simply wasn’t worth it. The chicken wings were okay but far from great—dry and lacking juiciness, though they had a decent flavor. The hot dog was probably the best of the bunch, with soft bread, onions, and mustard, but still nothing that would make me want to come back just for it. On a scale of 1 to 10, the overall experience was around a 5 at best. With airport food prices being what they are, I’d hoped for much better quality. If you’re in a rush and need something to fill you up, the hot dog or wings might do the job, but I’d definitely
This was right near my gate, I saw they had a burger figured it wouldn't be bad. It was by far the best burger I have had in a VERY long time if ever! The cheese was perfectly melted! I had to go back and tell the chef how great it was before I took off! Make sure you stop here!
If I could give it 10 stars I would. Delicious burgers and wings… the drinks… chef’s kiss. Airport food is most time meh but there are a few gems out there and the Essex Burger LGA is one of them. We had a BBQ burger and Essex wings. The burger was prepared to the requested temperature and the wings had a sweet and crunchy glaze to them. Absolutely delicious. We also had cocktails. My hubby had a vodka soda with a splash of cranberry and I had a margarita with 1800 blanco tequila. The bartender l, Mayra T, makes what I have to say is the best margarita I’ve had in a long time, maybe ever and I’ve been to many Mexican restaurants and enjoyed many margaritas. Shout out to Mayra for her amazing customer service, which truly makes the difference in any restaurant experience. If you have the op
Really good for airport dining! With the renovations to LaGuardia Airport, these eateries are at their best. Chuko Ramen and Essex Burger now share expanded seating. This was great as we could order from either and still eat together. The menu is scannable on the table. You order online and then a waiter quickly delivers your food. We ordered soy ramen with roasted pork and soy marinated egg and a spicy tuna roll for $39.27 including tip and an essex burger (double patty with fries) for $24.08 including tip. Under normal circumstances, this is totally overpriced but it is solid airport food with no wait. Would eat here again.
Spent $86 on three burgers at this place. They bring us our food in to go containers. I didn’t realized I placed an order to go. It was my honest mistake. But we are sitting down at a table. And they tell us we have to leave because we placed a to go order.. They wouldn’t let us eat at the table with the food that we purchased at that restaurant and they made us pack up and leave. There were plenty of open tables.
