Guinness stout glaze, bacon, cheddar cheese, crispy fried onions, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. Served with homestyle fries. $14
Bennigan’s, Santa Clara CA
This burger was large, messy, and pretty tasty! I enjoyed the Guinness stout glazed and was happy that it came with an extra side of it. I thought the fried onions were too greasy and soggy, but they tasted decent enough. The thick cut fries were also yummy. I thought the patty was overcooked though and it was on the dry side.

Al’s Humdinger, Hoquiam WA
This burger was messy, greasy, and absolutely fabulous! I ate easily like a Dick’s burger, but was substantially larger than one. This was a total winner in my book. Noms!
8 oz Angus beef, morbier cheese, dijon mustard, pork belly tomato-onion compote, arugula, black pepper bun. Happy hour $15
DB Brasserie, Las Vegas NV
This burger was good, but maybe there was too much going on for me to fully enjoy it. The patty was good though – it was juicy and had a nice texture. But between the rich cheese and rich pork belly compote, this burger quickly became too rich pretty quickly. I still love this place though!
Niman Ranch beef, white cheddar, caramelized onions, bacon, garlic aioli, grain mustard and house-made bbq sauce. Served with salad and side of pickled veggies. $13
Radish, San Francisco CA
Mmm, this burger looked great and tasted equally great. The beef was thick and juicy and the bacon and caramelized onions gave it a nice and smoky flavor. The side salad was also very refreshing and perfectly dressed.
Calicraft Cali Coast Kolsch ale. $5
Patty ground with pastrami, Tillamook cheddar, Russian dressing, lettuce, onions, and relish on a sesame seed bun. $11
Wise Sons Jewish Delicatessen, San Francisco CA
This burger was unexpectedly delicious coming from a Jewish deli! The patty with pastrami was different and tasty, and all the ingredients just worked so well together. Mmm…
One 4 ounce patty, ground daily all natural Niman Ranch beef. “Everything on it” with lettuce, tomato, red onions, Super sauce, and cheese. $7.50
Super Duper Burgers, San Francisco CA
Omg, this burger was amazing! I think the fried egg totally put it over the top. It was messy, oozy, gooey, and perfect. Definitely a guilty treat for lunch!
House beer-cheddar, bacon lardons, smoked-salt onion strings, Umami house ketchup, mustard spread. $12
Umami Burger, Las Vegas NV
I was a bit disappoint by this burger after all the hype about this burger brand. Mostly, I didn’t like the bun. But the burger was surprisingly tame tasting despite the fact that it’s called the “Manly”. I’ve had much manlier burgers elsewhere with more flavor.

Castle Dome Cafe, Zion National Park UT
I didn’t like this cheeseburger very much because the patty was pretty dry and the bun was much bigger than the filling. It was fairly large though.
French fries. $2.75
Fresh avocado, applewood smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, ranch dressing and mayo on a multi-grain bun. $6.29
Smashburger, Glendale AZ
I love that this burger is pretending to be kinda healthy with the avocado and multi-grain bun, but then they throw in bacon, ranch dressing and mayo! Lol. Anyway, it tasted great.
Habanero cheese, guacamole, lettuce, tomato, onion, chipotle mayo and fresh jalapeños on a spicy chipotle bun. $6.29
Smashfries tossed in Italian olive oil, rosemary and garlic. $1.99
Smashburger, Glendale AZ
This burger was pretty good. It was flavorful and the fresh jalapeños gave it a little kick. The fries were really great. I loved that they were cut really thin and they weren’t greasy either.
Choron sauce, butter lettuce, tomato, red onion, applewood bacon, morbier cheese. Served with French fries. $18
Bisou, San Francisco CA
This burger had really good flavors, but the patty was a little overdone. This restaurant is a madhouse during brunch so the service can easily get shoddy (and it did). This definitely wasn’t a relaxing brunch.
