Devoured the 'Green Chili Burger'.... a flavorful & moist burger. Toppings were complimentary of one another and really worked well together... green chili relish had great flavor and was unique. The avocado and provolone cheese were nice complimentary additions and neither were overpowering. Definitely could have been larger (that's not what she said... or did she?!?!).
Sweet potato fries were a bit overcooked. Regular fries left a bit to be desired. The Kale sprinkled with crack was pretty good - Dave Chappelle would approve.
This was a good burger, plain and simple. Nothing too fancy. The kind you'd find at any good hole in the wall burger shack. I'd certainly have it again, but only on the way to or from Niagara or some such shitty dive bar.
A fine patty party bookended with beers and some nice pink patty. Mine was a bit overcooked but it came with some unexpected accoutrements (chips and a pickle) - a grilled cheese burger is never one to shy away from.
Andrew, on the other hand, was without Fay. She's now an integral part of his being and without her he is barely identifiable as human. 2.2/10, the .2 is for the burger pin he wore, a stylish accent nestled among an otherwise unglamorous and frankly reviling attempt at resembling a human.
I love this burger - it's every bit as delicious as it was when I first enjoyed it with Burger Club a year ago. The bacon-infused patty gives salty flavor with every bite, and the super-thin potato crips give a great crunch. I love the smoked gruyer and freshness of the lettuce, and the size of the burger is perfectly satisfying without leaving my stomach on the floor.
The fries were a bit disappointing - they were lukewarm, and not especially crisp. Given the really creative burger menu (I tried a bite of the Bluicy - yum!), the fries seem like a less-considered afterthought - they're totally fine, but they could have made this a supremely special experience.
I love the vibe of the restaurant - casual basement feel with a portrait of its namesake uncle Walt on the wall - but the noise level can be a bit much. (A couple of acoustical tiles/whatnot would really help so that we don't have to yell to be heard by the people a few inches away.)
The servers were, once again, very friendly.
Overall, I love Whitman's and always look forward to a visit.
Felt like these were fresh off the grill at my friends house, which is not bad or good.
"Whatever satisfies the soul is the [burger]." -Walt Whitman. Indeed, each bite of the blesséd, blushing, blissful Bluicy gushed with delicious blue cheese much as Whitman's Muse gushed forth into the world. The fries did not satisfy the soul to the same extent, but overall the experience was delightful.
Hanger steak patty was tender and juicy, and the caramelized onions added a delicious sweetness... but it needed some added condiments unlike some other delicious streak based burgers. The brussels sprouts for sides was a regrettable choice. They were good. But not fries good.
Recommend a little something to cut the thick of the peanut butter.
Green chili itself didn't add much flavor value - could've been more flavorful. Mostly tastes like a good burger with avocado/onions, chili unnoticed
