Delicious burgers, have been wanting to try this place out for a long time. Well worth the wait. Staff are friendly and helpful. Burgers are made with quality ingredients and the curly fries are yum too! Will definitely be back
Urban Auckland recently voted Flaming Onion as one of the best gourmet burger restaurants in Auckland, I think they got it wrong.....they are THE BEST! The food is not only exceptionally good, the service is fantastic. Go and treat yourself to a burger, you won't be disappointed.
Have I told you before that the best burgers can be found in New Zealand? I am pretty sure about that since I had tried many burgers in my life, from different cities worldwide, I don’t want to boast about my travels (personal and work) but to assure you of that statement I was lucky enough to have visited 34 countries and roughly 150+ cities to date, of which I try to sneak in some burgers here and there. While there are good burgers in those countries, I still find the ones in New Zealand way much better, not all of them of course and this regardless of how cheap or how expensive they were, honestly some cheap ones are better than your $100+ burgers. I even tried McDonald’s quarter pounder and Burger Kings whopper range in most of those countries and nothing compares to our quarter pounder and whopper here. Do I rest my case? I hope some well-travelled follower that had tried New Zealand burgers stand by me and comment below.
Blue popper burger was delicious, always a good time getting burgers from Flaming O! The chips also hit the spot.
Super lovely staff, amazing recommending this place to others! Try it for yourself!!
Definitely one of the best burger joints in Auckland city!
I got steak burger, kumara fries, chicken tenders and prawns. Everything was delicious.
The most expansive burger menu I’ve seen in any burger joint. I got the Highwayman? (Beef) and a chicken burger with maple bacon and buttermilk chicken. Also kumara chips and fish. If you eat in they serve it all on proper dinner plates. There’s a fish aquarium shop next door and potential for scenics 🏙 how goood
I get flaming onion quite regularly and the burgers are soooooo yummy - so many options and great flavours and good size!! Only issue is that sometimes the burgers seem a little rushed/scrappy. But tbh will always be my go to for a yummy burger!!
One of my favorite hole-in-the-wall joints on the Northshore... Ordered my Diablo waygu burger to-go, and was definitely worth the price. My wife had the gluten free veggie burger and enjoyed it. Only downside is that if you eat-in you will walk out smelling like a fry pan... So if you’re going there on a first date you’ve been warned! Great spot though.
Omg you need to try these burgers! They are bucket list! For such a small place gee they pump out the deliciousness. I recommend you try the double big Marco for a life changing burger experience.
Been eating here for years and never disappointed me. I'm very lucky this is my local.
The burgers are giagantic (I can only eat half at a time) and very creative. Go for the burger of the week, it's totally worth it! They are also masters at frying things. The chips and kumara chips are fantastic. It's a bit pricy than your usual fish and chip shop chips, but very good quality and decently portioned. The potato chips and crunchy on the outside and fluffly in the inside. Kumara chips are almost lightly battered and actually crunchy. Not at all like your average floppy soft kumara chips. The onion rings are quite good too.
The only thing to be aware is that it can be positively packed. Calling them ahead of time to pre order is recommended.
My kids love their curly fries :) love that it’s all made to order so you always get fresh food!
10/10 experience , great food and great service from Tylar and Jayden this afternoon. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family and certainly will be back soon!!!
The best burgers ever, my other half is from california and loves your burgers and curly fries, he reckons there the best in Aotearoa. I usually get my kai delivered, always hot and delicious.

Vast variety of burgers in their menu. Fast service even on a busy night. Delicious burgers but a bit dry for me. Buns are delicious as well, perfectly cooked. Kumara fries are good and sweet. Will definitely come back and order the other burgers.
We found this place next to a job we're working on and were very impressed, we will be back there tomorrow, epic burgers!!
Absolutely amazing, leaves me and my coworkers in the best moods with big smiles on our face after eating these burgers. It all started with The Bogan Burger and now we're working our way through the menu. Keep up the great work guys.
Best homemade burgers , I really liked the food and the staff are good people, had it a while ago but forgot to rate it, these guys deserve it.
Lovely atmosphere and great service from Jayden and all staff !! The food was great as always and met my high expectations. Portions of the food is really good and fills you up!!! Would definitely recommend to those who are close and want a good hearty meal :)))
Jayden our server was very kind and friendly, really accustomed to our needs as well.
Overall amazing experience from a worker who works in the food industry.
One of the best burger shop in North Shore. Had The Big Marco.
We have frequented The Flaming Onion for some time now. The burgers are always hot, well seasoned and a good size. The chips are crunchy but they’re all so stubby! At $10.90 for a chicken burger, I feel this is slightly below the market pricing for a similar size burger. I haven’t tried any of the bigger burgers but they look really nice! Note, they charge for paywave here so keep that in mind.
