The Dirty V in Downtown Raleigh serves hand-crafted vegan burgers including the Basic Betty, Big Betty (double), El Sucio (spicy), Smac Down (mac & cheese topped), and Naughty Cowgirl. All 100% plant-based. GF buns available.

Basic Betty

Our classic single patty burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and house sauce on a soft bun. This is the burger that started it all — simple, clean, and perfectly executed. The Basic Betty is the best introduction to The Dirty V for first-time visitors and the reliable go-to for regulars who appreciate quality over complexity.

Big Betty

Double the patty, double the satisfaction. The Big Betty is our answer for serious appetites. Two premium plant-based patties with all the classic toppings, stacked tall on a bun that holds it all together. If you came hungry, this is your burger.

El Sucio

The El Sucio brings the fire with our signature nuclear waste sauce and fresh jalapeños. This is our heat-seekers' burger — boldly spicy with a creamy, tangy complexity from the nuclear waste sauce that keeps you reaching for more. Not for the faint of heart, but absolutely for the flavor-curious.

Smac Down

Our most indulgent burger. The Smac Down is loaded with our famous dairy-free mac and cheese on top of the patty, creating a carb-on-carb tower of comfort food glory. It's messy, it's rich, and it's one of our bestselling items for a reason.

Naughty Cowgirl

Vegan cheddar meets smurf ranch in a burger that's creamy, tangy, and satisfying. The Naughty Cowgirl is the choice for guests who want something different — a burger with personality and a sauce combination you won't find anywhere else.

Gluten-Free Burger Options

Every burger on our menu can be ordered with a gluten-free bun substitution. The GF bun holds up well with all our toppings and sauces, so you don't lose any of the experience. Just ask when you order at the counter or add a note to your online Toast order.

Best Burger Add-Ons

Level up your burger with our signature sides. Nuclear waste loaded fries are our most popular pairing — crispy waffle fries smothered in spicy vegan cheese sauce. A milkshake makes the perfect companion: the S'mores shake with a spicy burger is a sweet-heat combination that's become legendary. Or keep it classic with a side of mac and cheese.
