    Wings, fries and burgers are awesome. You must choose medium or medium well for your meat. Also you can see the Union Square while you can taste your awesone milkshake and other beverages.

    Nutella burgers (donut "buns" stuffed with strawberries, passion-fruit gelee, kiwi, and an inch-thick block of Nutella ganache) are a popular dessert item at this decadent burger joint. Read more

    Before I became a vegetarian, this was my favorite dinner date place. The ultra-spicy burger is SO good/SO spicy, onion buns are delicious, and definitely order aioli w/ your fries. GORGEOUS views! :)

    Portions are small for their price point, but the view is well worth it. Waitress, Alice was incredible!

    Try a ciabatta bun! And be sure to get the aioli. The onion rings and all types of fries are great

    I'm always looking for gluten free and this was perfectly made at the Burger Bar. Burger, fries, beer - what ever you want. Great.

    The view is cool if you can get a seat by the window. The $65 Kobe Foie Gras burger was awesome, but it was also $65.

    Try the Buffalo burger: it's lean, low fat, low cholesterol & super tender. This place also has great booths with TVs & a killer local beer list.

    Build your own burger...go on, you can do this! PS. They actually cook them the way you order it, so medium rare is still pink and juicy. Hallelujah!

    These burgers are kinda pricy for what you get. They're definitely delicious though. And the place has nice views of union square!

    Burgers are great, but the shakes are the real star. Salads and non-burger fare are substandard

    I had the burger named after the chef. Buffalo, spinach, and other stuff. Extremely flavorful and delicious.

    Try to sit with a window overlooking Union Square. It's not quite as nice as sitting outside at Cheesecake Factory, but it's still a wonderful view!

    They don't do call-in takeout but you can order at the bar and have a beer while you wait. They have dogfish head, on tap even.

    The Frog Burger. Do it. Also, the milkshake paddle. You can walk off the calories on the hills.

    Hubert Keller burger is KILLER. Best burger I've had in years. Goes great with the Ancient Peaks Cab available by the glass.

    Good burgers and fries, but horrendous service if mildly crowded (i.e. won't seat large waitlist even when half the tables are empty, and drinks ordered at bar take forever).

    Was it worth $60, probably not, but the Rossini is a fine burger and a good story for home. Get there early for lunch and ask for a table by the window that looks over Union Square

    If you want to elevate your existence even slightly, have the Black & White milkshake. It's indescribably delicious!

    No meal is complete without a milkshake; regardless of any flavor you should try their milkshakes, even their milkshake sampler!

    Saddle up to the bar and order a chilled shot of KAPPA Pisco with a Blue Moon beer back- uncompromisingly smooth.

    Splurge for the chef's Kobe Rossini Burger (with shaved truffles and sauteed foie gras) for $60…. or don’t. Just sayin’… it’s dope. There’s also custom milkshakes. Read more

    I was disappointed with the Nutella milkshake. The dark chocolate overpowered the hazelnut flavor of the Nutella.
