Hey GOATS! Have you tried McCormacks burgers? I'm still on my 'best burger with a drink' search.

Mama,
Check out Waterfront Ale House. 30th & 2nd. great food including their burgers.
Crooked Knife has a nice burger. I think it is 32nd bet Park & Mad.
Joshua Tree has a pretty good burger, just make sure to go before their "usuals" show up.

Yeah, McCormacks burgers are good and hearty. I don't really get them often, but I've had them. Usually I'm there latenight (on weekends especially) and we order out food if we're hungry since the kitchen is closed--or I just wait until the walk home and grab some cartfood from the 28th + Mad cart. Sadly, one of my main bartenders left 2 weeks ago, and they have a new crew. Only 1 of my bartenders is left...

Oh--as to price, it won't be cheap. the beers are a bit pricey (I learned this recently when new bartenders started charging me $6 or more per!!! WTF is that about???)The burger is at least 9 or 10......

Heck, you can get a beer and double burger at the Shack for less than that.

I hit this haven of turkish meats last night for my birthday, but I am posting b/c they actually have a lunch special--10.95 for an appetizer plus an entre! I know it's .95 over (w/o tax if you get takeout) and it's slightly out of bounds, but their grilled meats were pretty amazing! Great falafal and pickled hot salad as well...and all items were reasonably priced. I actually got the mixed grill for dinner $21, with a falafal and hot pickled salad appetizer. All were pretty amazing! I have leftovers, which I am NOT sharing with Max, my pooch.I think my g/f may be gracious enough to give me her leftovers as well--but I'm not banking on it yet. I'd totally reccomend this place--reasonably cheap (especially the lunch specials) and darn good. Service can be a little slow but I didn't mind
