Not much for a veg head but the fries are still great after all these years.

eat the best burger on the upper east side; look for a seat at the bar to skip the huge line

Great Burgers, Great Bar.
Relentless Bill RobinsonMay 6, 2012
The food and drink are only OK. Why does nobody here talk about the notoriously rude, nasty attitudes of the bartenders and staff here?
Michael RekMarch 17, 2013
Oh....get a bloody bull. 100.

CHEESEBURGER.
Holger LüdorfJuly 10, 2010
Burgers are decent, but not the best ever. A little over-rated I think!

Go to Melons and have 2 burgers. Beer and lots of ketchup to wash it down.
Michael RiegelmanJanuary 25, 2014
Very rude manager. Walked out faster than we walked in.
Miguel VargasJuly 11, 2015

Best burger joint in NYC
albertosherreroDecember 2, 2015
Posiblemente la mejor hamburguesa con bacon y queso que he probado en Manhattan. Acompañarla de patatas y bloody mary.
SandraJanuary 1, 2014
On en parle comme l'un des meilleurs burgers New Yorkais, en tous les cas, un des meilleurs burgers que j'aie mangés dans ma vie! Tip: essayez d'arriver tôt pour éviter les files d'attente!!
Aline KleinMay 17, 2015
O hambúrguer é um espetáculo, super saboroso! Ele não é muito grande, então é possível que um homem com fome não ache suficiente. Peça um acompanham também. Eles não trabalham com cartões.
Robert BobJuly 17, 2015
Отличный вариант после музея Метрополитен, идти минут 10. Действительно вкусные бургеры, можно еще взять суп дня. Помните, что не принимают карты, только кэш
Volponi Leal, RodrigoJuly 18, 2015
Hamburgueria tradicional no UES. Não aceitam cartão, só dinheiro, e fica aberto até tarde. Boa alternativa no final de noite.
anne sophie michelDecember 29, 2011
Une excellente adresse pour deguster un burger a new york, deco digne d'un classique des 50's, service impeccable
Leonardo IcóFebruary 16, 2015
Cara, o lanche daqui é sensacional. Se você gosta de BACON (More Bacon) peça Bacon Cheeseburguer. O lanche não é gigante mas o hambúrguer é grande. O picles e cebola vem separado do lanche no prato.
Andres CardenasDecember 27, 2016
Excelente lugar , solamente que va mucha gente y el tiempo de espera es largo .
Angélica FaríasNovember 4, 2021
