Get in line for this greasy, taste treat. Burgers are quite good with all the fix'ns. A must do after a late night out.

I was told this was going to be the best burger I've even had. It was good but not the best. The lettuce was mostly white. The meat was great and cooked perfectly. The bun was very fresh but the lettuce and tomato held back the burger. Be sure to try their Lucky sauce.

We were just in town for one night and wanted a quick meal. They were fantastic french fries. And I went bunless, so they wrapped my burger up in lettuce! Score! We tried the cajun fries & the chili cheese. Yum!

I'm actually writing a review for the 23rd St location in Chelsea...the one that's right next to the movie theater. What can I say....I love burgers, so I can be a bit picky about where to get a good one. This is one of those places. First off, love the themed decor in the place. Take the time to appreciate...

None of their chicken sandwiches are fried, as if that fast food chain suddenly became socially responsible and joined Michele Obama's crusade against obesity. However they do serve cheddar bacon cheeseburger, go figure. I got visions of treadmills while eating that. The burgers taste the same as your standard fast food pink mush flattened into patties, although these are twice... More

I really enjoyed the burger, has a little peppery flavor to it that spices it and makes it pretty delicious. The fries are pretty mediocre, I'd say you could skip those. It does take them a while to make it though, so not the best place if you are in a huge hurry. Cool decor and a nice little hole-in-the-wall... More

Um….shouldn’t the chicken on your sandwich be thicker than the lettuce on it? And their fries…frankly….a bag of Ore-Idas from the grocery store would have been better and cheaper

This place is within walking distance from my job. I have tried several items off of their menu. Their burgers are pretty good, as well as their fries. Their chicken sandwich is also pretty good. The service there is pretty slow. Every time you place an order, you wait like 10 minutes before it is done. I don't know if... More

This is a nice NYC burger joint. Its kind of small, but good service. We used it as a hang out to wait for our names to be called at Totto Ramen. We found that they have decent food as well.

What I enjoyed most was the menu variety and the quality of the home-cooked flavor in their dishes. In addition, compared to other NYC restaurants, their prioces are quite reasonable.
