Price is not a major consideration unless it's like $50+ then I don't care to hear about it.
-
Burger Joint for a cheaper burger.
21 Club for a ridiculously expensive burger ($30)
That said, I haven't tried the Bouley burger so
I can't say 21 Club has the best expensive burger.
It's just really good. and almost worth that $30. -
Molly's on 3rd Ave has a great pub (fat) burger. I still intend to try the burger at Luger's.
For regular-sized burgers that are juicy and tasty, I would go with Shake Shack and Burger Joint. 5 Guys isn't bad, but not up to the level of these two.

Yvo=== Our hidden Gem of a pub Dirty Pierres... Especially on Sunday for the $6.00 burger...

Meh, saw the spanking and closure on the other thread. I'll ban myself now. Adios all, it's been real.
-
Excellent suggestions, this is all great guys. Keep 'em coming!!! Thanks!

Donovan's in Woodside still makes one of my favorite burgers in the city. (Pub style)
-
Yeah, I too am a fan of the good ole pub burger. Nothing too fancy. When I need a burger, I just go to Judge Roy Bean.
-
Shake Shack..
of course, i hate waiting in line so i usually will opt for waterfront ale house (i live right by there) .. or five guys (close to work)
-
I'm seconding flatrock on Donovan's. If you love the flat SS-style burgers, probably not for you. The bun melts into the patty. But it's delicious meat, rare (when you order it that way) on the inside and charred on the outside, juicy as hell... and you *never* have to wait for a table (since the place is gigantic), let alone wait on a line. :)

Donovan's is the Irish pub yes? Very close to the train station, nightly bar fights?
-
Only when Stevenp and Christopher from Rock Center are both there! Yeah, Irish Pub close to the train (get the stuffed clams as an app).
-
For pub style, my favorites are:
Blue Smoke - same taste as shake shack but in a pub style. Good salty crust, beefy flavor
Primehouse - a surprise contender. Made with dry aged steak trimmings. Nice and beefy and mineral tang of dry aged steak. A steal at $12 at the bar.
Michael Jordans - my favorite of the steakhouse burgers. Dry aged steak, salty crispy crust. About $15 at the bar during lunch.Slightly beneath those are
Stand - good, well seasoned. Top it off with a toasted marshmallow shake.
Waterfront - I'm pretty sure they use 100% sirloin, you can taste it. Always well cooked. The buffalo burger from their specials board is great too.

I realize this topic can be exhausted ad nauseum, but I'm researching an upcoming project for my blog and would really like some opinions on what is the best burger in NYC (five boroughs only). Please also mention whether it's slider style (smaller burgers) or pub style (monster style), and if you can - why you think it's the best or one of the best.
Thanks in advance :)
