Ricardo SauerNovember 23, 2014A superb burguer! I would dare to say that it was the best I ever had.
Daniel AndradeDecember 12, 2014The place is really cosy and looks awesome. But I was expecting better burgers...
Tristan TranOctober 16, 2013Better than Shake Shack in my opinion, but way more expansive. I believe it was 7-10$ for the burger? Was still hungry afterwards!
FrancesNovember 29, 2013Hidden spot in the Le Parker Meridien hotel. Order the best burger in NY! :)
Aycan AydoganOctober 17, 2015You will have to que in front of a black curtain in the lobby of park meridien. But worth it...
Shaun Tollerton ⚡️December 26, 2017Cheeseburger, medium rare, works, no bacon and a vanilla shake. 👌
Kathy HergertApril 11, 2016Fun atmosphere but the buns were like wonder bread. The fries frozen, and I suspect the meat is factory farmed and frozen patties. Just an interesting version of McD's. Sorry, not impressed.
Douglas SouzaSeptember 6, 2014You can't go wrong: cheeseburger + fries + choc shake. Undeniable one of the best in town!
Dylan AcresJune 1, 2012While it was a really good burger it wasn't a life changing experience. Don't plan on actually getting a table here either.- Bill DJanuary 4, 2012Great Burgers and cool atmosphere. Hate to give the location away it is that good and want to keep it a secret
Christie C.September 29, 2010A dive burger joint hidden in a snazzy hotel. Walk past the concierge desk in the Le Parker Meridian and follow the burger smell. It's hidden behind a red curtain!
Alex HayworthJune 19, 2017In a hotel, down a narrow hallway alongside the front desk, marked with a neon sign, behind a curtain. Down with Shake Shack, Viva la Burger Joint.
Fernanda NeuteFebruary 7, 2017I don't understand the hype about this place. The burger is good, but definitely not worth standing in line for. Many other great options especially if you are just visiting for a few days.
Blue Man City ManDecember 24, 2014You can call it in so you don't have to wait in line. Great burgers and fries.- Julia AdrianoSeptember 21, 2014The cheeseburger is excellent, but the place is incredible, completely unexpected! It's worth!
Kip WattsSeptember 7, 2018Fries were a little too salty but I ate them all. Burger was juicy and cooked perfectly.
Vincent TanApril 23, 2011Try the Eggs Benedict With Pancakes - Best eggs Benedict I have ever eaten. The pancakes are bloody excellent!
Jenn LewisFebruary 28, 2014I'm a newbie!!!! And I will be here next Sat-tues so I can't wait to taste tht infamous Burger!!! B
IFCJune 7, 2010Le Parker Meridien Hotel is a white marble minimalist palace. So it's surprising that it stinks like burgers. Hidden just off the lobby is the best burger in mid-town. - IFC Staff
Emmanuel ANGLESSeptember 23, 2015Very very good burger The place is hidden behind the curtain on the left
get a burger with the works, a pickle, and several orders of fries.
- Niels DijkJanuary 10, 2019Amazing place.. just know what to order or you have to go back in line again ;)
Tash ConcepcionAugust 17, 2014Always a long line but one of the best burgers in the city. Worth the wait in line!
CurtisMay 12, 2012Keep it simple: hamburger, medium rare, mustard & ketchup. And a $1 tip will get you that burger faster.
Anton SlyusarJune 17, 2016The place has its vibe, but the burger itself is absolutely average, McD-level treat. Looks like all the hype is based on this "no-frills place, hard to find" atmosphere. Doesn't worth the wait at all
Once you're done eating, clean your table and leave; let the people eat their burgers while they're hot.
Fahad AleesaSeptember 2, 2019Great place great food and staff. Organizing the dining area is very poor.
Lisa WFebruary 20, 2013Love the atmosphere and attitude. Fries were ok, perfectly salted. Burger was good, but the works were a bit much. Wouldn't wait a long time for it. Shake Shack might be a bit better in my opinion.

A delicious back-room burger joint in a posh NYC hotel. Those who aren't in a rush will be well rewarded with an amazing burger and fries.

"Among the BEST burgers in Manhattan. Dine in with a loved one or grab it to-go with friends and find a nearby stoop. These juicy burgers were never meant to be eaten with utensils, folks."

"You have to order the PB & B Burger, which stands for peanut butter and bacon. It is a mouth-watering combination!"

"One of the most well known parks in the world, but despite all the hype, it's still just a park. It's a great one though! lots to do and see and just beautiful for walks. Try some dipping dots."
