first let me start off by saying it is refreshing to think that a burger is not just a burger anymore. Burgatory really puts the pow in an American staple. my lovely wife and 5 young ladies and I went to the Burgatory down at the waterfront for lunch. we were able to right in and the atmosphere and great. even though it was winter we were in the patio section and it was quite toasty. Our Serve was just wonderful Liz W was friendly and informative. She answered all of our question and quite encouraging when it came to suggestions.
The girls all built there own burgers but stayed with the standard burger. Every single person loved there meal. I on the other hand, felt that is was my duty to try something new and different. I like elk so I tried the Elk Gone Wild Burger. Let me say it didn't disappoint. First it had a Grass Fed Elk Burger with the Diablo Dust. Topped with caramelized onion and bacon jam with a think slice smoked gouda. With a vinaigrette tossed arugula. The first bit surprised me. The diablo dust did its trick. along with the meaty taste of the Elk there was a punch of spice that filled my mouth. the combination really when well together. The unctuousness of the meat and spice was mellowed by the smoked gouda.
Along with the Burger I had to have the Apple Pancake and Bacon Milkshake. Yes I said apple pancake and bacon. It was wonderful, you wouldn't expect to have chunks of bacon in a milkshake and it blend well with Ice-cream and milk, let me tell you it really does. You can get this wacky combination in a hard version but being that it was a lunch and i had 4 hours of driving to do i stayed with the non-alcoholic version. I would highly recommend you try this restaurant, you will be surprised to find a burger is no long just a burger anymore,
