They are well cooked and plated nicely. The fries are reasonable. The milk shakes are all milk and very little ice cream. This is a European take on a small 50's dinner experience. The outside seating is nice and it is right on a bus stop.

I'm so glad we did because we met the owner and he was very kind and hospitable. He told us he would make the best American burgers for the Americans-haha! He definitely followed through with that promise. Zurich is lucky to have such an amazing burger joint and I'm happy to say this place has grade A American burgers! Skip McDonalds and go out of your way to come here!!

Unless you don't mind eating outside in the dark with all the smokers. Second....expect to wait a long time. This isn't a fast food restaurant so grab a beer and wait 45/60 min to get your food. Third... Switzerland is very expensive so this restaurant is no different. 2 burgers, 2 alcoholic drinks, and French fries were 98CHF which is pretty much 100 bucks. They have 3 sauces for you to try. Ketchup- Tasted like marinara sauce. BBQ- Tasted like smokey ketchup. 1000 island. Tasted normal. Burgers were great. They were juicy and delicious. Animal Style French Fries were a good try. Def not like the original but so far from home it was a nice find. This restaurant isn't for Americans. Way too expensive for what we eat all the time but I compare this place to the Melting Pot in the US. That place is so overpriced but it's amazing to get your cheese fondue fix. I can't imagine Swiss people coming to the US and eating at our expensive version of cheese fondue. Service was ok. It was super busy so can't really complain but I could tell our waiter was super annoyed with our audacity of showing up , with no reservation, and willingness to wait. And for some dumb reason you can't order "The Threesome" (or Hattrick) with a group of 5 people. 4 apparently is ok but we had 5. Cannot imagine why if 3 people order the same thing it's an inconvenience for the restaurant but DON'T DO IT or again your waiter will show his annoyance.

James Joyce boasts having the "best" burger in town (it's not) and our local friend recommended the place more for drinks, but we chose this anyway since its within walking distance from Widder bar where we came from. The menu reads like a dependable Irish pub fare, but with Zurich prices. GAH! I feel destitute in Zurich. Prices of 25CHF and up for an entree is typical. Fish n chips were deliciously crispy; while the burger has decent moist MMMeat. Alas, the cheese was dried out and burnt on the edges. (I mean, how does one manage to burn cheese?!) Sit outside if the weather permits, because the setting is really inviting with tea light candles and fresh flowers on the table. A glass of Lillet Blanc and a Guiness on tap are excellent end of the night drinks. The friendly service warrants the 4th star, but you should go somewhere else for the best burger in town.

The hotel had been slated for demolition and the bank that was building a place to entertain its out of town clients bought the wood paneling and decorations and shipped it all over to Zurich--crazy! I read about this place in my guide book and it was also recommended by my Zurich resident friend so I had to check it out. From the outside you'd never be able to tell what the interior holds; it has a quite a modern-looking patio and is on a well-heeled side street off the main shipping drag, Bonhofstrasse. It looks like it could be any other upscale bar until you walk inside: lots of dark gleaming yet well-worn wood, intricate tile work, and period paintings. You can take it all in as you sip the beverage of your choice. We weren't hungry enough to sample their food, but from what I could see on the other tables it looked pretty damn good. The bartender was very nice and friendly and the whole place just felt very comfortable. Well worth a visit.

Now they opened their first place on the old continent and it's in Zurich - hooray! Since today I know that we're lucky bastards. First they got me with their West-Side beef burger. Decent minced meat. Not a finely grinded, perfectly shaped patty but the real deal (to my taste). Topped with an orchestra of flavours: the spicy chipotle sauce, the juicy tomato salsa, the ripe avocado, the fresh cilantro... I was in burger heaven. Not to forget the fries. It would be an insult to call them sides. First of all, how many places offer sweet potato fries? Maybe because you have to know how to prepare them. For example with a sheer panade to make them crispy outside and a slightly smoky flavour. But, the original potato fries are outstanding, too. Crispy, well-seasoned with an own mix of spices and extra yummy with a dip of the home-made ketchup. The menu is a great bargain: for CHF 6.90 extra to the burger you get an uber side plus a tasty soft drink with all natural ingredients.
