Transcript
My spiritual quest to find the best burger in New York City, Lion's Bar is the name that continually pops up in the coliseum that is the comment section. They took the burger scene by storm when they opened up in March 2024 with everyone and their moms calling it a Red Hook Tavern Dew. The burger is a dry aged blend that is house ground daily. It comes with American cheese and a lightly grilled onion that is sandwiched between a toasted sesame bun. It ran $19 with fries being an extra four, which is the cheapest side of fries yet. The official weight came in at 10.9 ounces. And for your hard earned $4, you get 3.1 ounces of fries. This beefy boy is a true simple classic. It doesn't rely on gimmicks or a fancy build. It just has a great sear to juiciness balance, perfectly melted cheese, and a bun to patty ratio that is dialed in. My boys over Brotherly Burgers called it the Tim Duncan of better, and I agree. But in my soul, it felt more like the Zach Randolph of best Frisbee. You no, some fundamental low post work is coming, but you just can't stop it. I don't think it'll make my top five when it's all said and done, but it landed at a hard nine point zero out 10 for me. I'm hitting Red Hook Tavern later this week, so I'm excited to see how it'll stack up. Follow me for more oh. Oh, thank you.
