The Luger Burger does not hide itself behind complex toppings or fusion inpired sides. This is your meat and potatoes burger that prides itself on the simplistic quality of the ingredients. Burger, bun, gorgeous meat and good Il' American cheese. Not to mention Karl... the german waiter who reminded

I always feel strange about the close to all10 ratings... but THIS burger is an elegant example of quality and traditionalism done well. There's no gimmicks in terms of toppings or assembly. All you taste is the wonderful flavor of the beef... and fries which are equally deliciousabdrew wasn't drinking because he is "hungover", but I think it's because he can't handle the heat - 4.5

This burger is a moment of succulent taste bud pleasure. Hot, juicy, harmoniousness that was worth a snow storm to taste.
As for Andrew... I love this burger so much, I give him a "high rating" with a specific number.

As impressive as it is that someone was able to closely replicate the texture of actual beef, I still ask myself.. "why"
All this science for a not so good (fake) burger with a funky aftertaste with too much secret sauce . Applying science to seedless watermelon or shrimp that run on treadmills is something I can get behind...you just can't beat the beef!
(I like the 'merican flag toothpick... I'm keeping it). I'm convinced the fries were stolen from McDonald's.
Andrew hasn't talked to me the whole time, he won't answer my texts, I think there's something going on between him and Haden...)
This is harsh, but then again, I didn't have a drink.

This was a very creative burger reminiscent of a Vietnamese grilled pork with rice patty and dippy sauce. The spicy meat was complimented by the sweet pickles veggies. Although this was delicious- it is very particular and not necessarily for those who seek the tradition burger and fries.
As for Andrew- I sat next to him and he smelled like failure. But he was nice to me in the end... so I give him a 4.5 😍

Very inventive and super tasty! I loved the texture of the hot beats in the meat. The first batch was over cooked but the second was baller.

I love Bacon, and even more when it's hidden inside things like burger meat .
If it had BBQ sauce it would be a knock out

I knew stepping through the window threshold meant meating my maker-my mother... although she was sporting a smug Clintony Trump grin and squeagy eyes, her slider was a tasty creation.
As for Andrew- if he had a high pitched girly voice, I don't think anyone would listen to him.

It's hard to comment when you have a magnificent hangover saving burger in one hand and this phone in the other. This is a great burger . A hybrid between a backyard burger and an "artisanal" burger, The horseradish provides an unexpectedly delightful combo with the cheddar cheese. The fries were a little cold but I ate them anyway
