Best burger and fries combo my wife and I have ever had!!! We've eaten at many burger places in our…read morehome area of Seattle but have never had a place where both the burger and fries were the very best. The funny thing is that we wanted Italian food but all of those places were closed and our only good option was this place. Although we really enjoyed the Italian cuisine in Cortona, we're so glad we found this place. The server was very accommodating to my wife's soy allergy and made sure it wasn't in any of the food, especially the mayo as it often is. This place makes their own tasty mayo. Most burger places have either a great hamburger and okay fries or great fries and an okay burger. But it's very rare to find the perfect combo like here. We know it sounds crazy but if you're an American and accustomed to good burgers, give this place a try. You might be surprised that it's the best you've ever had! PS - to top off a great trip to Cortona, I got to meet and get a picture taken with Jovanotti, my favorite Italian singer!!!

Now they take credit card and have a fun menu for kids. Five stars!…read moreIt really is one of my very favorite restaurants! Did I mention that the burgers are the best? I would say the burgers have gotten even better now (not as rare). I never run into Americans in Perugia, except here...they must be doing something right!

And the pasta and pizza are spectacular here, but I never thought I would find such a great gastropub here. This restaurant would do really well in California. With amazing burgers with unique ingredients and high quality beef, plus great craft beers and a modern yet simple decor. I love The Italian Burger. My favorite burger is the Volare which you can get extra spicy, the fries are really good too, they also carry a big selection of paninnis, I tried one with prosciutto and avocado, and a vegetarian one with eggplant and mushrooms. You know I am a fan since I have eaten here twice in less than a week. Grazie!

Having tired of Italian food, the choices on the menu made me °homesick° for a few moments, so I orded the Cheeseburger and fries (only $6.50 euros). Surprisingly, the meat was extraordinary, not one of those frozen patties, the french fries were spectacular, and the burger was topped with cheese, lettuce, and tomato. The quality of ingredients were all good, particularly the tomato which was comparable to organic plum tomatoes in the US. Even though the waitress spoke no English, we had no trouble communicating with her in our broken Italian. FYI-- if you are starving at 7:00 pm, this is the only decent place that is open and serving decent grub. All of the other good places are closed, choosing to open at 8 pm, which is much too late for us! FFYI -- They have an immaculate bathroom and the toilet actually has a seat (a rarity at public restrooms in Italy). They got one extra star because of this....LOL

The buns are baked in the kitchen, and the potato chips are made there too. The ambiance of the building is excellent, too.it used to be the pen for the bulls, and it still has some of the steel rails that separated the stalls, and troughs are now under glass as the tables. While enjoying these minimum half pound burgers, cooked to your preference, have a glass of Rosso di Montalcino or Nobile de Montepulciano.

We took it as a sign and decided we had to stop. The inside is surreal. U.S. flags, state license plates, hubcaps, neon everywhere, Marilyn Monroe in the foyer. Typical old-style diner seats, even a pinball machine in the corner. This place makes an Elvis shake (yah, with peanut butter and banana) and was serving up a special Thanksgiving meal today - we decided to go for burgers and shakes instead and were not disappointed. My middle boy had the 1950 DOC burger; I got the Juicy Lucy (purportedly a well known recipe from Minnesota - you learn something new everyday)... Definitely worth a stop if you happen to be wandering the outskirts of Poggibonsi and have been subsisting on pizza and gelato for a week or two...

Prosciutto crudo, stracchino e rucola, erba e salsiccia are the traditional fillings but their menu offers a good verity so that everyone is satisfied. They don't have vegan options but if you ask, they won't add any dairy ingredients! For 5€ you get a super filled piece of torta with a drink, what's better than a cheap and tasty dish? My friends and I love to eat there when we hang out in town. I really recommend this place and torta al testo is a great street food!!
