ISO best burger? I have heard many dif stories.....

... but I would recommend in my Village neighborhood the Corner Bistro at West 4th Street between West 12th and Jane or BLT Burger at Sixth Avenue near West 12th...

There's also a Five Napkin Burger at Bleecker and Seventh

they just opened in Times Square...

1451 Broadway
(41st & Broadway)

If the burgers there are anything like the original location in Santa Monica, then they will soon be recognized as the best in NYC also.

On side note, Cara, we've swapped some emails, and have a mutual friend, but the winds have not yet brought our sails into the same port of call at the same time...

Any chance I can buy you some fries to go with that burger???

I have heard great things about the place hidden behind the curtain at the Parker Meridian hotel on 57th between 6th & 7th.

55th and 3rd.

I have heard they have a great brunch too

Corner Bistro!

Norma's is a restaurant in the hotel, and they do have a phenomenal brunch.

However, the burger joint is a separate place.  Across the hall... Hidden.

...but now there are a zillion great places.  Try Zagat.com

DBGB on Bowery

Five Napkin Burger (Hell's Kitchen and UES)

Minetta Tavern in West Village

La Caprice in the Pierre

Enjoy!

Been to burger joint a few times, not the best, not the worst.  Prefer shake shack.

You are so right Lina, its stuffed with foie graf & beef shortribs, amazing.

How about Five Guys Burgers!!  I heard Zagat actual rated "Best Burger" last year!!  As for locations, these a few in NYC, but I went to 34th & 8th Ave.

I'm getting hungry now

I had no idea there was one there!  Thank you SO much.  I really, really need one, right about now.

Kisses,

But right now, my $ is spent at The Counter

And my allocation of fat intake is with the fried dill pickles, the fries, and OMFG... the shakes.  They have seasonal shake flavors that rock my world like only...

You can do, CSJ?

Try The Royale Bar on Ave C and 10th
One of the best bars and burgers to hang out and relax

lol

Bowery Burgers from Wholefoods!

come back to a mob!
Very active thread LOL
I would say of all the opinions I got MOST will say the P meridian.....the shake shack is about 50 percent but the lines turn me off. Since the homestead is near me I will def give it a go.....
thanks TER

well...what about in and out burger???

"Any chance I can buy you some fries to go with that burger??? "

you mean fries to go with that shake?

what about homestead??

I know> I thought I'd get one or two replies ith one or two emails LOL...now I have a months worth of burgers to go try!

I have eaten there many times but not in NYC...it IS a VERY good burger. But I am in search of burger nirvana

Last time I was at the 21 Club the burger was $21!  Yes, I said $21 Efn dollars.

1291 3rd Ave     am i the only one who knows this?  corner bistro is great too

I never said they weren't over-priced!  There are now some in NYC that are even more than that!

is this the "bootman" that I know and love?

fried dill pickles?? I went to a place that had funnel cake fries....NICE

Thanks.  I did not know that.

Also, I meant UWS not UES.  Five Napkin Burger is on the UWS!

Although I sing the praises of the 99 cent pizza places all over the city, I just do not have the guts to try the 99 cent burger places. I do not even want to know whether or not there's really meat in 99 cent burger, let alone what kind of meat.

yes it is my little potato cord.  Do you want to come to my next back yard barbeque ?

I would rather just have my steak there.

Cara I think there is one by you as well. Really good

In my opinion, one Five Napkin Burger for Two and two consenting adults is considered a threesome.

Only if you wear your uniform
