Best L.A. Burgers

They say David Myers worked on this burger for ages, creating the perfect blend of meats for the perfect patty, creating the perfect sear, and even commissioning a bakery to make the perfect bun. And I gotta agree, this is one dam good burger

My, Hungry Cat, what big burgers you have. The better to fill you up with, my dears. No joke, this burger is huge. Big juicy 8oz patty, thick slices of bacon, avocado, topped with blue cheese. Perfection.

I have a particular fondness for The Counter, simply because you can create your own burger masterpieces. The key is to not go overboard with the toppings (ie green chiles, blue cheese, dried cranberries, cucumbers, and pineapple is not a good thing people). Also, don't forget, there's another Counter on Sunset in WEHO.

Really good juicy burger served on hawaiian bread with a bunch of condiments on the side (a bit overkill in my opinion). Funfact: Eric Greenspan challenged Sang Yoon to a burger throwdown, plastering the challenge onto the Father's Office doors with nothing other than....ketchup. Unfortunately I don't think anything ever happened from it. bummer.

Not only is the burger here incredibly good, but the description on the menu is the most mouth-watering we've ever read: The Dry Aged Burger: A Half Pound of our Dry Aged Blend w/Taleggio Cheese, Black Forest Bacon, Red Onion, Tomato, Baby Arugula & our Smoked Jalapeño-Pineapple Compote on Toasted Brioche.

The Seoul Burger with kimchi and garlic fries (w/ real roasted garlic chunks) yum! They also serve homemade veggie burger, ostrich burger, chicken and turkey burgers. Really fun topping combos too

It looks like a little hole-in-the-wall place but this place has been making great burgers since way back when. Housemade burgers, potato salad and they even housemake the mayo!

Personally, I find the Father's Office burger to be a bit unbalanced - the carmelized onions overpower everything to the point where you can hardly even taste the blue cheese. However, so many people love this burger that I couldn't just not mention it on this list. Hey, different strokes for different folks, right?

Personally, I don't understand all the hype. Waaaaay overrated in my opinion. Definitely stay away from the sides. The fries were disgusting super large cut and soggy. $3 bucks for like 4 of them. The onion rings were $2.50 and meh but we only got 5 in our order.

Ahh the Myrtle burger. If you're familiar with this local Los Feliz watering hole you'll have your opinions about the crowds, the music and the decor but you must agree that the Myrtle is delicious. This is not some sort of gourmet attempt to please the foodies this is a greasy, bacon covered, special sauce slathered bundle of yum. Do yourself a favor and give it a shot.

Cafe Stella has been a staple of the Silverlake scene for years. The bar is tight and tough to get a seat but if you do and you happen to pick up the bar menu get the burger. It is a tasty hidden treat that is work the trip.

You can't have a list of LA's best burgers without In n Out. Why? Because that's what a hamburger's all about ;)
