Serving only three kinds of burgers, fries and beer in a cup, this cash only joint is extremely popular.

Not the best burger.. – I honestly don't believe this place has the best burger. It is ok, but I think at my sister bbq the burgers are of better quality. I don't think its as cheap as people think given the size of the burgers and the fries. Oh you will have to pay extra for fries. This place is located inside the Meridien hotel. Pretty nice hotel, then you go through a door and you think you entered a hole in the wall at the east village. Just very odd. Skip this and order a nice burger at any diner.

good burger. period. – i've had my fair share of burgers around the city, and although this isn't my all-time favorite, i highly recommend it. it's right near my job so i'm always going there for lunch when i want a tasty meal. the prices are decent and you get your money's worth.

Great burgers, Cheap Eat – Small hidden place in the Parker Meridien Hotel. Dark and crowded. A place for a quick bite. The burger is juicy and tender. Price is about average. Save the money to Burger King or McDonald for their burgers, come here instead. The price is about the same, but the quality is sure better.

LOVE IT – I went here a few years ago when it wasn't so well known. Now, That the word has spread it has become more crowed everytime I go. I love this place and the guys and girl working the counter are friendly and nice. They wont change the menu and you cant order milk shakes during certain times. But it is their place they have every right to do what they want. During the busy times don't expect to get a table any time soon. You have to be looking while waiting in the 30 min line. Once one opens up grab it. Have someone ... read more

The hidden contender for the title of best New York City hamburger. – The Scene Around a curtained corner in the posh Le Parker Meridien, a neon burger sign points the way to the city's secret obsession. Suits, tourists and foodies pack this crowded hole-in-the-wall, where names are etched into walls next to kid's drawings and movie posters. Even though it's decorated like a regular's hangout, no one sticks around--the few coveted booths are hovered over shamelessly. The Food So what if orders are taken quickly and strung fr... read more

average food – burgers and fries are tasty but nothing extraordinary. so keep your expectations low, otherwise you may get dissapointed. the price you will need to pay is okay when compared with the quality of what you are offered.

NYC Landmark – I just went yesterday (7-7-06) around 1pm. The line seemed long but we waited about 10 minutes. I was so excited to eat there because it's been rated one of the top burgers in NYC. You couldn't believe how excited and giddy I was while waiting on line. Once we got to the door, you basically stare at people while they eat so ur the first to grab the table when they get up.. It seats 40, I counted. But not pleasantly. We did get a table, 2 burgers, 2 fries, 2 drinks, and a brownie. It was good, but not the best.... read more

One of the Best Burgers in NY! – Popped in 11 last night for some FOOOOD. What I got was a nice, juicy burger. I don't like bloody beef so i ordered it medium which was perfect. Ask for the works, not sure what's in it but it tasted great. Fries are okay but, on the bland side. Soda and beer is also served. I was told to avoid the milkshakes. The decor of the restaurant is the rebel, broke younger brother when compared to the grand hall of the Meridien but when it's late and you crave some good food, good atmosphere and a lo... read more
