| - All you need to know: THE BEST SKINNY FRIES I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. EVER. Perfectly cut, not greasy, perfectly salted, crunchy outside, soft hot inside. I ate every last one and I could have eaten more.
So it is no secret that I love Hubert Keller. I have the hugest crush on him with his French accent, charming smile, and gray ponytail. And I don't typically crush on older men, that's a fact. I also love how he's always adorably sweet and encouraging on the Top Chef shows. And his PBS shows make it look easy to make souffle...yeah, right, but he makes it look easy.
So we went to Burger Bar after an unintended visit to the airport to retrieve my BF's lost ID. Ugh. This place looks like an updated more upscale diner with booths, tables, and bar seating. Get your fave type of seating and get ready to stuff yourself!
Burgers are either "build your own" or Chef's burgers that are already designed with toppings, etc. They even have veggie burgers and fish burgers so if you don't like beef you are still going to find something here. I ordered the Hubert Keller burger that was buffalo meat with caramelized onions, baby spinach and bleu cheese on a ciabatta with red wine and shallots sauce. If it is good enough for Hubert it is good enough for me. The burger was perfectly medium rare and the entire thing was messy and dripping with savory juices from the sauce and the caramelized onions. It was delicious...and huge! I didn't finish the entire thing but that may have been because I stuffed my face with fries. The BF got the lamb burger. This one is with secret spices, tomato, cilantro, and spicy burger bar ketchup. It had a great spice taste, like Middle Eastern inspired flavor. And the spicy ketchup - that is the stuff. We ordered a separate order of that for our fries. Not that the fries needed ketchup but damn that ketchup was good.
I cannot stress enough how good those fries were. I am a huge fan of skinny fries, crunchier the better, and dear God they were amazing.
If you don't want burgers, they do have salads and a chicken sandwich too. They also have milkshakes, including BOOZY milkshakes. If ONLY I had enough room for one of those too.
Service was good, our waitress was attentive and didn't let us go thirsty. She also answered that Chef Keller was not there that weekend and told me I could keep up with his whereabouts (i.e. stalk him more effectively) on facebook. She confirmed that he is a sweet guy just like I already knew. The prices are pretty standard Vegas if you ask me which means it isn't gonna be the cheapest burger...mine was $22 if that tells you. And the ketchup extra was $1. But hey, that's how it goes.
Next time you are in Vegas and want a casual atmosphere and a damn fine burger and the best fries EVER you need to come here.
