A national magazine said the best spot to stop for a burger in Georgia is at a gas station in the heart of Dunwoody.

NFA Burger was named the “Best Burger in Georgia” by Food & Wine Magazine earlier this week. The burger joint is located inside a Chevron gas station at 5464 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, but locals know not to judge a book by its cover.

Although if what you want is a melty, messy burger, NFA’s flagship sandwiches certainly look the part.

“The menu is simple, single or double, but the burgers are anything but boring, starting with top-notch Angus beef smashed down (but not too vigorously) on the grill for those nice, crispy-caramelized edges,” according to Food & Wine’s description. “Pickles, mustard, the house secret sauce, and cheese are the standard toppings; a soft roll from Martin’s holds the whole decadent package together.”

Billy Kramer opened the restaurant in 2019, and NFA stands for “not fooling around.” Located in Dunwoody Village, NFA Burger quickly racked up positive reviews, including one from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and it was recently touted by Thrillist as one of the “47 American Burger Spots You Need to Try Right Now.”

Where is it?
