| - It's hard to give 5 stars to a burger joint - but I thought about it.
My only expectations were "expensive" as I had read something about a place with gorgonzola topped Kobe burgers. I also didn't know if it was sit-down, counter service or what. And does the "next-to-Barcelona" rub off in any good/bad/ugly way ?
Bottom Line: A pleasant surprise!
Clean, quick, quaint but modern. And it is sit down service provided by a friendly staff. Polite. Not overly professional but that isn't a bad thing - they sell burgers .... and sorry to use the phrase but what a burger. Perfectly cooked. Anointed with my selections of fixings - most as part of the price - and choice of buns (including wheat).
And what *seems* expensive at $11 for a half pound Kobe burger ($8 for Angus half , $6 for Angus quarter pound), they serve bottomless drinks at a reasonable price ($2), and cheese, veggies, special sauces for covering your burger and a side dish were also included (best sweet potato fries I've ever had). So in fact the net result was in line.
While I didn't have any, they also have Crab Cakes, Turkey Burger and an Organic Veggie Burger --- so plenty for lite to extreme veggie crowd! Salads and sandwiches all in the $5 - $8 range were also available --- but that's for the 4th or 5th visit.
It's a nice little corner cafe --- good for a quick but tasty bite at lunch, or even a leisurely afternoon (Quality beer on tap and it even looked like martini service - but no I didn't indulge ;-).
And did I say my burger was near perfect?
Cheers
