PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia's culinary scene is about to welcome two new restaurants from the popular New York-based chain, 7th Street Burger, expanding its presence in the city and creating excitement among food lovers.
7th Street Burger Brings Its Famous Smashburgers to Fishtown and Center City
A Fast-Growing Burger Empire
Founded in 2021 by childhood friends Kevin Rezvani and Paras Jain, 7th Street Burger began as a single location in New York's East Village. Over the past few years, the concept has taken off, prompting expansion into New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and, most recently, Pennsylvania.
Rezvani's heritage deeply shapes the brand's identity, inspiring pride and curiosity among Philadelphians. The menu and merchandise feature the Lucky Cat, symbolizing hospitality, hustle, and good fortune, connecting the brand's story to local values.
The Fishtown Debut and Center City Expansion
Philadelphians will soon have two accessible spots at 1215 Frankford Ave. in Fishtown and 1518 Chestnut St. in Center City, making it easy to enjoy these popular burgers.
- Fishtown: 7th Street Burger is opening its first Philadelphia location at 1215 Frankford Ave. in the Fishtown neighborhood.
- Center City: Following the Fishtown launch, the brand will open a Rittenhouse Square outpost at 1518 Chestnut St.
While exact opening dates are not yet announced, signed leases and the 'opening soon' listings on the website aim to build anticipation and excitement among residents and food lovers.
The Menu: Simple, Made-to-Order Smashburgers
7th Street Burger has built its loyal following by focusing on simplicity, consistency, and high-quality ingredients. Rather than an overwhelming list of options, the menu keeps it straightforward:
- Classic Smashburgers: The menu centers on classic single or double cheeseburgers made with 100% fresh beef. Each patty is smashed to order and topped with American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, and the brand's signature house sauce, all served on a Martin's potato bun.
- Spicy Jalapeño Burger: For those seeking some heat, this variation includes a single or double patty topped with fresh jalapeños and a fiery ghost pepper sauce.
- Fries and Sides: Diners can pair their burgers with classic fries or opt for loaded fries covered in all the signature burger fixings.
- Vegetarian options are also available.
As the brand prepares to open at 1215 Frankford Ave. and 1518 Chestnut St., Philadelphia burger fans can look forward to a new fast-casual dining experience in their neighborhood.
