There are additional locations inside Dekalb Market and at the Hugh food hall. Many worried when the Court Street Grocers took over the old Eisenberg’s that it wouldn’t be as good. What started as a hot dog cart in Madison Square Park in 2001, Shake Shack has evolved into an international burger powerhouse.

Burger Joint (Central Park South)
The burger is served on a toasted brioche bun with house-made pickles and a side of fries. The Fairfax burger has been rated as one of the best burgers in New York City by multiple publications. At some point over the course of history, burgers got unfairly stereotyped as un-fancy food. You could use a lot of this guide as evidence that burgers can be just as fancy as cucumber sandwiches , and perhaps the best example of that is Altro Paradiso’s. And you no longer need to come for lunch or sit at the bar to eat it, so there’s really no excuse for not checking this burger off your list.
Either way, just be sure to order this two-patty stack coated in housemade American cheese and fancy sauce, the high-society cousin of special sauce. When we're looking for a burger, we're looking for the perfect harmony of flavors and textures to meld and sing. That's just what the Bar Sardine burger does, balancing the savory notes of the patty with smoked cheddar and BBQ mayo for smokey and sweet highlights. Add the shoestring fries nestled under the bun and you've got yourself a symphony.
DB Bistro Moderne – Royale Double Truffle Burger, $120, Midtown (Temporarily Closed)
The quarter fat, dry-aged NY strip and chuck patty is griddled to medium rare, and sandwiched between raw white onion, American cheese and an Italian-style bun of secret origin. The accompanying few wedge fries are merely the notion of a side, but the burger is so good we don’t mind a paucity of pommes. They also offer a wide variety of sides, including their famous sweet potato fries, so you can customize your meal to perfection. In addition to being delicious, two8two’s burgers are also reasonably priced, making it a great option for budget-minded diners. So next time you’re in the mood for a burger in NYC, be sure to check out two8two Bar & Burger.

NYC’s Top 15 Burgers Right Now
The double cheeseburger features two patties, seared and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Melted American cheese, Dijonnaise, onions and pickles top the burger. The Happiest Burger, the house specialty, is the East Coast version of an In-n-Out double patty stack.
4 Charles is from the people behind Au Cheval, and the burger here is similarly fantastic. Like the one at Au Cheval, it has two patties, tons of cheese, and plenty of sauce. But while the burgers are pretty much twins, the end results are very different, like the Olsen twins in It Takes Two. At Au Cheval, your burger will likely share the table with a fried bologna sandwich, and you’ll be surrounded by people drinking picklebacks and tallboys. At 4 Charles, the burger is cut tableside by a white-gloved server, and it’s often shared as an appetizer before the $99 prime rib arrives.

In our opinion, the Double ShackBurger is THE burger you need to try!

Red Hook Tavern also offers a vegan burger patty for those who do not eat meat. In a city increasingly full of two-dimensional patties, the “Hot Mess” from Harlem Shake remains a top-three smashburger. We never thought ground beef could get this crispy until we tasted the edges on these patties, and the pickled cherry pepper-bacon relish is a very nice touch.
I have to say, Mendy and all those other people might just be right about this being the best burger in the city. It is a burger so good that you’ll say “wow, that’s a good burger” with the first bite still completely in your mouth. You won’t care that it takes you a while to get a napkin to wipe off the juices dripping down your chin. You’ll work your hardest to fit that last bite in, even though you know you shouldn’t, that you will barely be able to get up from your seat. At this Cobble Hill bar, you'll come for the drinks and stay for the burger (or maybe it's the other way around).

The B&B Team has won this category not just once, but 5 times! Even if you are not in the mood for a burger, stop in at this restaurant (reservation recommended!). The Bash Burger is made up of onion & bacon jam, pickles, American cheese & special sauce. The burgers highlight is definitely the onion and bacon jam which adds the perfect level of smokey sweetness to the deliciously cooked meat. At this LES burger spot, perfectly-seasoned patties are pressed flat like a CD, with ultra-crispy edges that spill over the sides of the bun. When you want something simple, get their Classic with American cheese, onions, pickles, and a house sauce.
