About This Spot

Stepping into Comeback Burger feels like slipping into a well-worn neighborhood gathering spot where the pace slows just enough to savor good company and hearty food. This unpretentious corner of Petersburg’s revitalized downtown blends a casual sports bar energy with the warmth of a local grill where familiar faces—both behind the counter and among the patrons—make you feel like a welcomed regular even on your first visit.

The atmosphere hums quietly with the background sounds of a thoughtfully curated yet unexpected playlist, setting a nostalgic mood that is as comfortable as it is a little quirky. The space itself is cozy, inviting a lingering conversation whether you’re catching a game or unwinding after a busy day. It’s the kind of place where time stretches a little, and waiting for your food becomes part of the anticipation rather than an interruption.

Comeback Burger’s heart lies in its deeply satisfying food—burgers crafted from rich wagyu beef that come to the table still warm and fresh, alongside crispy onion rings and old-fashioned sides that evoke simple joy. Each bite tells a story of care, from the perfectly toasted buns to thoughtfully paired local beers, making the meal feel like more than just eating—it’s a small celebration of everyday flavors. The occasional imperfections, like a soggy bun quickly replaced with a smile, only add to the genuine, human scale of the experience.

Whether you’re seeking a place to pause and reconnect or a spirited spot to watch the game, Comeback Burger holds a quiet confidence that welcomes you in. It’s a destination for those who value the humble pleasure of a well-made burger and the soft buzz of a place where stories are exchanged over good food and familiar surroundings.

All the burgers here are wagyu beef burgers. Deliciousness! Burger was great and the onion rings were tasty. The music the restaurant played could’ve been better. Elevator music with a 60’s parlor esthetic left me a bit confused but I’ll definitely be back when I want a tasty burger.

If you want a good burger in Petersburg, this is a decent place. It’s small, lightly staffed and busy. When I say busy, be prepared to wait. There were four of us and were there for almost an hour & 1/2. Good selection of local beer and different burgers. Good tasting burger. Just took forever to get it. Would we go back? It’s a maybe.

By far the best burger I've had in a very long time. Everyone was very nice and welcoming, the food came quick and was hot and fresh. Truly don't have any complaints. Worth every penny!

Delicious burgers. Good service. I had an issue with my bun being kind of wet and they were so gracious and get me a new one. Would definitely go again. Quaint little downtown area. There is a parking area right across the street.

What a find! Comeback makes a fantastic burger and the setting in revitalized Petersburg made it a great stop on our trip. Very affordable meals here. We definitely hope to return!

Best burger I’ve had in a while. I see why it’s called Comeback Burger, I will definitely come back to try other burgers on the menu when I need my burger fix. My hamburger patty and onion rings were cooked to perfection. While the burger was smaller than you might expect, the portions were just right for me. If you don’t want a fast food type burger and crave homestyle flavor and quality this is the place to go. Not at all greasy like What-A-Burger. They have beer on tap to complement your meal. And service was great.

I had a patty melt combo plus a fried onion ring as side. The server definitely took care of my meal, and toast bun on the sandwich was not too thick compared to normal burger buns. Quality homemade meal! I'll definitely come back for another meal someday. For homemade burgers, best until now.
