| - Because my PIC (Partner In Cuisine) and I had our first date at Burgatory, this place holds an extra special place in my heart, but we don't simply keep going back out of some misguided nostalgia. We keep going back because, quite simply, the place serves kickass burgers and shakes. They not only serve beef, they serve chicken, wagyu beef, bison, crab, and veggie. After you pick your meat, you have a ploethra of bread to choose from. I only wish they had some type of pretzel bun. Hint, hint if anybody at Burgatory reads these...On Saturdays, they have a wild game burger of the day in which they've been known to serve elk, bear, alligator, ostrich, etc. If you are into trying "exotic" meats such as those, get there early because the wild game doesn't always last. Burgatory's burgers come with home-made potato / sweet potato chips that are awesome, but for a slight upcharge, you can get a delicious salad made with real greens and a vinagrette. Yum Yum. If you get the salad, then you can balance out the awful healthiness of the salad with one of their many hard or non-alcoholic shakes made by a milkshake "artist" with ice cream they make in-house.
The only downside is the ridiculously long wait for a table - on a Friday or Saturday night, prepare to wait upwards of 2 hours for a table (even on a weeknight, expect at least an hour wait). In cases of long waits and since our gluttony knows no bounds when it comes to Burgatory, there have been times with my PIC and I have gone to have a pre-dinner while waiting for a table to open up at Burgatory. It's ridiculous actually. I don't even know what else to say. If you live in Pittsburgh and haven't been to Burgatory yet, you live under a rock!
