Top Spots: For a Burger

Here in the midwest, we do burgers right. Looking for the best place to chow down? Take a tip from us—gourmet to hole-in-the-wall, we’ll find the burger for you.

Café Lurcat

The bar’s menu features the “Lurcat Burger”— Chef Paul Lynch of Firelake sums it up: “great food without feeling guilty, great atmosphere and no slumming it while you are eating late.”

The Dakota Jazz Club and Grill

One of the best eats in town. Their Classic Cheeseburger is a 8 oz. Angus house ground patty, served with shoestring potatoes and choice of white cheddar, Gruyère or Blue Cheese. Did we mention there’s jazz music?

Vincent

Just listen: braised short ribs and smoked gouda, inside a saucer-sized beef patty. City Pages calls it a “miracle of culinary chemistry.”

The News Room

Their 8 oz burgers are made from kobe beef, and they let you choose whatever you want to put atop.

The Blue Door

Heard of a Juicy Lucy? It’s a Minneapolis-made cheeseburger, where the cheese is found inside the beef patty instead of on top. One of their specialties, the “blucy” has blue cheese and garlic inside the patty.

The Bulldog

With three Minneapolis locations, The Bulldog chef’s use kobe beef. Their excellent burgers don’t come with a large price tag. Also, the bar has one of the best beer selections in the city. Bottoms up!

The Convention Grille

Their California burger (a fancy way of saying burger with veggies on top) is dynamite. A busy diner with a loud atmosphere, you’ve also got to try their fresh fries and malts.
