Since 1972, this kitschy Upper East Side burger joint has been sating meatheads. The cheeseburger is a bite of a bygone era, simple griddled on a flattop and medium-rare juicy. (Critics' Pick)

This neighborhood hangout grills the perfect everyday burger, has an extensive beer list, and the genuinely local feeling we all look for in a go-to bar.

Pubs don't come more oldschool, and some peg Mellon's burger as the best in the city. It's not, but along with Mellon's crispy waffle-cut fries and cold beer, it is a damn good show. [Eater 38 Member]

Bobby Flay loves the griddle-cooked burger patty here for the nice crust it gets.

The cheeseburger here is my favorite in New York City. Ask for tomato, lettuce, and pickles if you want them. They dont come with the order automatically. - Amy, head of social media at Foodspotting

Yes it's the best cheeseburger in the world! The question is; will you order a #bftt (burger for the table)? If you are with a group, do the right thing and get an extra making you the table hero!

An excellent bar burger, well-griddled, juicy and blanketed in melty American cheese.

You must try the burger ($9.75). It's griddled and features "juicy and flavorful loosely packed patties on simple toasted white buns."
