JAR (Just Ain't Right)

The value of the dollar dropped more than I had thought...
$18 for a shitty burger???


Appetizer: Chimay Beer, Potato Chips & Wasabi Dip

Hamburger: Kaiser Roll, Beef Patty, Caramelized Onions,
Butter Lettuce, Tomato, Garlic Aioli, Guyere Cheese

Served with: Garlic & Parsley Seasoned Fries, Ketchup on the side

Overall, the hype was completely misrepresented by this boring take on a burger. The meat was charred on the outside (I shivered at the taste) and undercooked on the inside. It lacked in any kind significant flavor, quality or seasoning.

The comfortable decor only goes so far when you're surrounded mostly by people trying to be seen amongst celebrities. Entertainment conversations overhead at every table. The bartender didn't bother to offer me a napkin or ask me how the meal was - she probably knew the answer though.

If this burger was $6 and the service was great, I'd go back, but it's unlikely that will ever happen.
