| - Chef Ramsay is a culinary god and genius restaurateur. i used to think it was all bullshit and spiffed up in production, but he walks the walk, as is proven by Burgr.
And although it looks like someone threw up Gordon all over the walls (and napkins and menus) at Burgr, it's sooo worth putting up with ...
The burger was ah-may-zeeng, cooked to a perfect medium rare and not overly-stacked with filler crap to the point where you can't eat it without a fork and knife. I had the uber-yummy Farm Burger, which featured English cheddar (really, once you have it, American cheddar just isn't the same), a perfectly fried egg, and duck breast bacon which, after tasting, I can never have another burger without.
My partner in foodie crime couldn't resist temptation and got the Hell's Kitchen burger (yes, we're fangirls). It comes with the burger essentials, a good cheese, jalapenos, tomato, and avocado. Also cooked to a perfect medium rare. Also perfectly delicious.
We ordered a side of the truffle parmesan fries for the two of us to split. Anything else would've been too much food. And those were so damn good. And tasted like truffles. Yummy, yummy truffles. *Mouth watering.* Of course, I also had to transplant some of the truffle aioli that came with the fries to my burger for extra mmm factor.
Oh, service was very nice. Maybe sliiiightly overdone to the point where it felt a tad fake, but honestly, I don't care. The manager made a point of coming over to the table to check in and was very natural about it. The waitstaff was extremely attentive. Even the seating hostess was friendly enough. The prices are also rather reasonable for the quality of food you get.
Downside? Aside from the over Ramsay-fied decor? The homemade ketchup-ish sauce was lackluster. Also the dining chairs felt a bit too low.
4.75 stars overall and yes we will be coming back.
