Burger or Brgr?

Serious restaurant critics who write for major newspaper/magazine visit the same restaurant 4-5 times before writing a review. Since I am not a restaurant critic, I will write about my experience at this new burger place after visiting it TWICE.

This is a burger restaurant called "Brgr". Yeah, creative, right? Drop the vowels and you get the name.

They claimed that the meat are from "grass-fed cows". Okay, a gimmick? Judge for yourself. All I care is this, "is the brgr delicious"?


YES


I had two different burgers on my visits. The first was a burger with a fried egg -"Fresh Morning Brgr". The yolk breaks into the meat and mixes with the goodness. The second brgr I had was "The Magnificent Meadow", which is a burger with mushrooms.

People who know me know that I am a die-hard fan of the Shake Shack. I still think Shake Shack burger is the best but there are a few reasons why I will be coming back to "Brgr".
First, location. This Brgr joint is located on 61th and Lexington Ave. a place that I walked by frequently. Also, it is 15 minutes walk from my apartment (the other location is in Chelsea). Second, there is NO line and plenty of seats. Third, the staff here are very easy-going.  Fourth, did i mention the burger was well-cooked?

The downer? The fries (two kinds are offered: sweet potato and russert potato) were too salty on my second visit, suggesting inconsistency. Also, I have heard complains about the greasy-ness of the burger. Oh well, it is a burger, what do you expect?

Since most of you reading this article attends Redeemer, I recommend that you check out this place with your friends. I would love to hear your feedbacks.

again, it is between on 3rd avenue, between 60th and 61st street
