Top 10 Hamburger Restraurants


Shooting Star Saloon - Huntsville, Utah.
Shooting Star Burger at the Shooting Star Saloon is an awesome meal. Cook Heidi won't reveal the ingredients, but a big ol' German sausage is included along with the beef patty. Yum.
 

Conway's Red Top - Colorado Springs Colorado.
Voted one of the "Best Burgers" in the United States by AAA. The Conway family has owned this business since the 50's serving a GIANT burger that "lives up to it's name".
 

Arctic Road Runner - Anchorage, AK Arctic Blvd.
(The original) and Old Seward Highway just south of International Airport Road. The Kodiak -- 1/2 pound of burger, a slice of ham, cheese, japaleno peppers and just about any other fixin' you want. They have about 20 different burgers. You will find one you like.
    

  

Murder Burger Drive Inn - 978 Olive Drive, Davis, California.
Murder Burger's motto is "So good, to die for."
 

Mr. Bartley's Burger Cottage -1246 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA. This Harvard Square landmark has been synonymous with burgers for more than 40 years.
 

Billy Goat Tavern - 430 N Michigan Ave, Chicago, IL.
This bar/lunch counter was immortalized on SNL for its "cheezborger, cheezborger, cheezborger."
 

Vortex Bar & Grill - 878 Peachtree St, Atlanta, GA.
Killer burgers, a serious bar scene and raucous decor make this dressed-up burger joint a huge Midtown hangout.
 

Nationwide Freezer Meats, 1930 H STREET Sacreamento, CA
In 1969, Frank Gonzales started selling sides of beef to home-freezer enthusiasts. A few years later he started serving choice-steak ground burgers that were so delicious and superior to any other local burger, it demanded his full-time attention. Nationwide’s Steak Frenchburger with cheese, plus potato quartered fries and an honest fresh-fruit milkshake will square you away.
 

Crabill's, 727 Miami Street, Urbana, Ohio
Size matters, but when it comes to hamburgers, bigger isn't necessarily better. In fact, some burger hounds prefer minuscule two-bite "sliders." The best place to gobble such mini-burgers is at the counter of Crabill's, where 50-cent hamburgers are served on itty-bitty buns, and small squares of cheese, mustard, and/or relish are available for a few cents extra. Eating one of these gems is a unique experience: Cooked in deep oil on the grill, a Crabill burger has a deliciously crunchy surface, and is so skinny that there's virtually no interior!
 

Feltner's Whatta-Burger - 1410 North Arkansas, Russellville, Arkansas.  Feltner's, home of "custom-made hamburgers." Hoist a simple Whatta-burger (a quarter-pounder on a broad bun), a double (two patties of beef), or a double-double (add two layers of cheese), and you are reminded of just how joyous a made-to-order fast-food hamburger can be.  They're simple and satisfying, served with speed and good cheer, with beautiful french fries and made-from-scratch milk shakes too thick to suck up using a straw. This is Americana on a bun!
