    Wagya beef Burger
    Przemysław B.

    Restaurant looks good and it's nice place. Wagyu Burger - supposed to be medium but it was well done. For 18 EUR I think it should be done perfectly, shame because it is waste of such premium beef. We ordered 2 and both were well done not medium.

    Cheese burger and fries.

    Quality burger and opened late! Definitely a younger crowd but they didn't kick this old guy out so that's good right? I would definitely eat here again.

    This place is a lot of fun! right away when we stepped in through the doors we loved the decor with red tile and all the great black/red/white paintings. I made "build your own" burger with cheddar, bacon, lettuce, caramelized onions, bbq sauce, spicy mayo , avocado and onionring. It was soooo tasty. Cooked nicely pinkish inside with all that meaty goodness highlighted. really appreciated the heavy char on the patty as well. We also shared one of the crazy milkshakes and i think it was called "Ice-scream" and had vanilla ice cream, peanutbutter sandwich, peanutbutter brittle , caramel and chocolate sauce!? Oh and sprinkles of course. This was like milkshake and dessert in one and if your up to splurging down about 8000 kcal in a beverage, this is the one to pick.

    That says it all...

    All right... There have been quite some controversial posts here... but hey... I like this place! To give you an idea: ... Loud hip hop music (good mix btw) ... Stylish decoration that reminds you of a US burger place ... menu and all the rest of the communication in English language ... in the kitchen, all dudes are from somewhere outside of Germany I think... saying that there might be some "real" US boys at the grill ;) I really like the focus on the details in this place. Let's just take this one as an example: no plastic in the restaurant. Everything is recycled paper... even the straws... Cool! Now the food. I liked it, a lot actually. The fries rock, the burgers are well prepared and tasty. Yes they didn't ask how I wanted the meat done, but well, I told them myself and it was perfect! I'll go again for sure, even though it is a pricy place after all...

    Cheeseburger & fries - just whatever

    Burgers are alright, not horrible and by far not the best. I tried the lunch special - cheeseburger, fries (not good) & a drink for about 10 EUR. The patty was well seasoned but overall the burger just wasn't very special, and definitely not worth the premium price tag. HOWEVER, the lemonade here is actual sweet sugary American style lemonade. This is relatively rare in Germany, where lemonade usually = tonic water with lemon or straight up Sprite. Worth a star by itself because it's so hard to find here. Atmosphere is large, loud and red. The super loud hip hop felt a little weird at noon, but it'd be fun at night. I'd come back for the lemonade!

    Cheeseburger with Onion Rings

    Came here with a friend last night and was really impressed. The decor is modern and trendy. The staff friendly and it has a cool atmosphere. We ordered cheeseburgers, onion rings, and sweet potato fries. The burgers were so good!!! Really one of the best burgers I've ever had. The meat was juicy and flavorful. You can tell the beef was high quality. The onion rings and sweet potato fries were also crisp and delicious. The straws for our cokes were adorable as well. I love the attention to detail at this restaurant. I will definitely be back.

    I ate too much... Positive surprise. Full of young people, nice food and delicious lemonade.

    Classic burger, fries, and coke - If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

    The location is nice and hip. The burgers are okay, but they do not offer bacon. Lemonade is also great

    Great burgers and ambience. Get the burger with the local meat, Wagyu was good but not for the buck.

    This is an American bar in the sense that if you came to America as a tourist, this is the kind of…read moreterrible place a jerky local would send a foreign tourist as a joke to get them out of their hair. In America, or Chicago at least, no one who's of legal drinking age and has any sort of respect for themselves goes to places like this. Bars like this are reserved for people who are freshly 21 and don't know any better, freshly divorced and looking to slum it, or for tourists who got got tricked into coming here. In this case, we were the Americans-in-Germany version of the latter. Our guide took us here thinking we'd be impressed with this 'American' bar. Obviously, that didn't happen. For any Chicagoans reading this, this bar is located in the Viagra Triangle of Düsseldorf and this place (along with all it's neighbors) would be the 'Mothers'... but at least we know where to send our guide when he visits Chicago next. Payback, for sure. The clientele seemed mostly older, divorcee-aged, though there were a few younger tables. The main level is sticky and standing room only and the crowd goes wild for songs that are perpetually lame to everyone in America besides mid-life crisis suffering suburbanites and people who enjoy piano bars. Songs like 'Who let the dogs out?', anything from Papa Roach and/or Nickelback, new-ish Bon Jovi releases, Lou Bega's 'Mambo #5', and more... but not ironically. A music video mash-up that did not match the songs that were actually being spun played on the overhead flat-screens. I was a particularly big fan of the Aretha Franklin video in black and white, Usher live in concert, and a raunchy Rihanna video. I'm not sure what the 3 had to do with each other, but it was fun to try and guess what the person who did mix them together was thinking. Our guide noted that they mix a mean Redbull vodka, but since the rest of us value our lives and do our best to not mix our uppers and downers, we all just opted for a straight beer. No surprise here with an altbier, but we sucked it up since were heading to Belgium the next day and knew we wouldn't have to drink any more light beers the rest of the trip. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but keep in mind we also came here sober. It's probably a lot better to come here after you've already spent a sizable amount of time imbibing.

    A Faux American bar and restaurant as you probably guessed from the name. Quite a pleasent place…read morebut venues that charge for the toilets always p*ss me off. Served a beer that they were calling Louisiana Stout, which was not bad. I think their website is quite good.
