5 Best Burger Spots in Spring Valley that Locals Rave About

Spring Valley (just west of the Strip in the Las Vegas area) is packed with neighborhood spots where locals escape tourist chaos—and a bunch of them happen to sling seriously good burgers. These five are constant favorites when locals want a great burger without going anywhere near the Strip.

1. Bachi Burger

Bachi Burger does “gourmet Asian‑inspired burgers,” and locals will tell you that, yes, it works—and then some. The vibe is modern and casual, with an open kitchen and a menu full of unexpected combinations.

The Banh-Mi Burger (with pickled veggies, jalapeños, and fresh herbs) and the Miso Butter Burger get a ton of love. Patties are thick and juicy, toppings are carefully layered, and the fries (especially the oxtail chili cheese fries) are almost a meal on their own. If you like bold flavors and don’t mind straying from classic American profiles, this is the spot.

2. Hamburger Hut

A neighborhood hang that feels almost like a throwback, Hamburger Hut is all about simple, done‑right burgers and that griddle flavor you can’t fake.

Expect smash‑style patties with crispy edges, American cheese, shredded lettuce, tomato, pickles, and sauce on a soft bun. The Double Cheeseburger is the move, and locals swear the ratio of beef to bun to toppings is spot‑on. Add chili cheese fries or onion rings and you’ve got the perfect low‑key burger night.

3. The Nook

The Nook is a small, low‑key spot that’s easy to overlook from the outside—and exactly the kind of place Spring Valley locals are quietly obsessed with.

Their burgers are juicy, thick, and cooked with care. Toppings range from classics to more creative combos like avocado, bacon, pepper jack, and spicy aioli. Folks in the area love that the burger actually tastes like beef first, with everything else in a supporting role. Portions are generous, and the staff is known for being genuinely friendly.

4. The Lodge (Spring Valley locations)

The Lodge is a local chain of tavern‑style casinos, but the food—especially the burgers—has a real following. Inside, it’s dark wood, big TVs, and a cozy sports‑bar feel.

The Lodge Burger with cheese, bacon, and all the fixings is a go‑to, but you’ll also see locals order specialty burgers with mushrooms and Swiss, barbecue sauce and onion rings, or jalapeños and pepper jack. It’s a solid “watch the game and crush a burger” spot.

5. Sickies Garage Burgers & Brews (nearby but a common Spring Valley go‑to)

Not technically in Spring Valley proper but close enough that locals regularly drive over, Sickies is a full‑on burger playground: long menu, crazy toppings, and a big beer list.

You’ll find everything from a classic cheeseburger to burgers topped with mac and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, or fried pickles. The Bacon Cheeseburger and Glazed Donut Burger (for the adventurous) both get lots of shout‑outs. It’s not subtle, but if you want to have fun with your burger order, Sickies delivers.
