Description:
On the corner of Herschel and Wall Streets in Downtown La Jolla, this burger joint offers a pretty simple menu - burgers! Order a burger, then tell 'em what you want on it. That's about it. You want fries? Sure, but they aren't included with your burger, so make sure you order those too. It's a simple operation going on over there, but it seems to be working since they have another location in Kensington, and a new location just opened up in Coronado. One more, and we may need to categorize this place as a "chain" restaurant. The seating is very limited, mostly outdoors, but if you're lucky to get a table, or a spot at the indoor counter, you'll have fun eating a burger while watching the "La Jollans" strut their stuff down Herschel St. They have a couple local brews on tap, but there is no room for any TVs, so don't plan on watching the game here.
Evaluations:
Brady's Score - 33
Brady's Comments - A very average burger at best. Tasted mostly bun with each bite and certainly the "tall grass" beef is not worth the advertisement it is written on. Personally, I would rather have a 6 dollar burger from Carl's Jr. Onion rings were worth noting.
Eric's Score - 31
Eric's Comments - If you are on that organic, healthy kick, this place is for you. Grass fed burgers are decent, but not exactly what I was craving. Average size left me hungry after dinner, even after the good size of the sides. Had I known that you could order a double patty(not on the menu), I feel like my impression might have been a lot different. I would give it another chance to find out.
Jim's Score - 38
Jim's Comments - A frozen patty but with a lot of taste. I was disappointed with the amount of meat but the bun was great. Very tasty! Nothing special about the toppings but I liked the onions. I was satisfied but felt there could have been more.
Marcos' Score - 41
Marcos' Comments - Considered fast food, this burger exceeds the Holy Grail of fast food - In 'N' Out. I have no idea what "grass fed" means (aren't all cows grass fed?) but the taste of the meat is stellar. If a quick, tasty burger is what you seek, lounge in La Jolla where the burgers rock.
