Burger wars, re-visited

[NY Pony]

I think Goodfriends' are all very good but not as outstanding as my good friends make them out to be. Of course they all live in the neighborhood, which is one of the deciding factors in picking a favorite.

Their half and half cheese fries are the most delicious thing on gods green earth.

Burger House and Taco Diner in uptown are my fav burgers.
If you go to Taco Diner, be sure to get a side of Serrano sauce to slather on top.

Taco Diner burgers?

[RGV Pony]

Yes.

Somewhat sacrilegious, but i will take your word for it

I have been meaning to try Taco Diner's burger for ages. Does anyone have a breakdown/review of it?
Everything I have heard has been very complimentary.

How are Burger House's tacos?

How are Burger House's tacos?

Not as good as their grilled cheese with sauteed onions.

Has anyone had a burger from Blues Burgers?

[PonyPride]

Yes — pretty good, too, although a little pricey.

The beef is really flavorful, the cheese is good ... only complaints are prices ($10-12 for a burger, $6 for most beers) and a really greasy/soggy bun. They also list their tater tots as "unbelievable" (or something equally hyperbolic) and they're very ordinary.

Very much worth trying, especially if you can get your office to pick up the tab.

[LA_Mustang]

Thanks. I've had a couple of people recommend the place.

Blues Burgers is quite good. Also, they had some really good Blues music going the Friday night I happened to stop in. Like really solid blues band. The guys on the guitars were crazy good.

It used to be one of my favorites, but a couple of years ago they changed it up. We were so bummed we talked to the manager about it and she said they had received a lot of complaints that they changed it and they were trying to change it back. They did change it back, but it is still not what it was, but closer. Good solid burger.

Also making a very good burger: Luck at Trinity Grove (just across the big white bridge below downtown). The bun left a little to be desired, but the burger itself had tons of flavor. I definitely would go again.

Stopped by Blues Burgers this weekend. Very good burger but it is pricy. The owner is a nice guy.
