My buddy and I were in the mood for some red meat so we decided to head over to The Grind.
I was surprised by the dark, modern decor. I liked it a lot and thought the long narrow layout made it feel like I was in some type of a place for only those in the know. Kind of a cluby, speakeasy feel.
We sat at the bar. I ordered the Anchor Steam on tap. Being from San Fran originally, it's nice to see it here. I'm not a fan of the mason jar glasses, I dribbled a little beer as I was drinking.
I ordered the steakhouse BLT burger and the herbed fries. The burger was huge compared with the other places in town. Size does matter. The burger was cooked perfectly and the bun and charred onions were great as well.
I would have to rate this juicy, flavorful burger as the current champ in the Phoenix gourmet burger wars.
