Just had a DQ flamethrower shit was killz |
Im surprised these 2 haven't come up; Chaise & Crave both on Main Street not to far from splitz and better burgers imo. Chaise Lounge - Homepage Crave on Main | Home |
#Hipster Chaise is awesome. Love the food and service there. |
Can't believe I forgot pourhouse in Gastown. They have an amazing burger there. Posted via RS Mobile |
i know were mostly talking beef burgers, but the best fishburger ive had is at red robin. also the best chicken burger ive had is at chickfila, but thats not in vancouver yet. |
The Rogue Burger at Rogue Wetbar is one of my local favorites, 9.2oz patty, served medium rare, so good. You don't find too many places locally that serve their burgers a bit pink, medium rare Random Google image of Rogue Burger http://foodology.ca/wp-content/uploa...gue-burger.jpg |

Not a fan of Crave though. Gave them 2, 3 chances, since I live in the area, but everything seems really bland and.. dry? Tried their pasta, burger, and even their brunch. Was not a fan. But I mean, they've been in business for quite some time now, so they must be doing something right. Splitz on Main wins by a loooong shot in my books. After having Splitz, even Vera's seemed very "meh." Might be my #1. Rogue is one of the better ones, compared to Cactus, Earls, Joeys, etc etc. But I can't really complain since I almost always eat free there :D |
The best burger I had is from this little restaurant, it simply had a green door and a red neon sign that said "burger". ... just that it was on a numbered street... |
^ I see what you did there... :fullofwin: |
splitz is terrible. you guys are on crack. |

Last winter, I remember I had a burger from Splitz on Main one week, and a burger from Vera's on Main the next. Comparing the 2, Vera's was just terrible. I like what you said about the honesty and lack of pretence. I don't care about fancy this or that. It's a damn burger. |
^ oh god Vera's burger i had it once wasnt juicy at ALL shark clubs double fister burger isnt bad but its just missing something i dont know what it is |
Vera's wasn't half-bad, once upon a time. But it seems that their quality went down after expanding. Looks like they spread themselves out too thin. |
I recently had another burger from Five Guys and I'm still pleased. My brother brought up an interesting point that I thought I should share with you guys and gals. Is it possible that we're all just spoiled? We have such a wide variety of burgers around the lower mainland all made with pretty good quality ingredients that its becoming difficult to decide who has the best burger in town? Everyone has different tastes though, whether its the quality of meet, how well its prepared and cooked or perhaps its the toppings and how juicy everything is. I'm not a food critic nor am I a burger connoisseur but I'm interested to hear what do you guys think. |

Our waitress (Stephanie) was AMAZING. Completely made the night. Rolled with the punches and had a few zingers of her own. Took off the mandatory tip and allowed us to tip whatever we wanted. Suffice to say, we tipped her way more. |

You can really get into it if you want - It can depend on the company, the recipes, the specific cooks that specific day, the time of day you eat there, the ingredients, the supplier of the ingredients, etc etc. But I think we're just talking generally. It's all relative, right? You bring price into the equation, and then ask yourself would you rather pay $10 for this burger or $10 for that burger? But like you said in the end, everyone has different tastes. When it comes to burgers, for a lot of people including myself, it's all in the patty and the sauce. |

Haha, I've been to Whistler Splitz once, and it was amazing. But I was snowboarding all day as well. |

I don't think we are spoiled. I think we have alot of variety of different burger joints, except most of them aren't good, and the ones that we think are good are just mediocre, compared to your American counterpart. Heck, even a city like Seattle that's NOT known for having good diners beats anything we have up here. Once you've tried the finer burgers in the States, everything else we have here is just below-par. Just like one poster mentioned, you rarely find burger joints here that serve their burger patties partially pink. In the states, any half decent burger joint/diner would serve your burger patties medium done. It's a sign of high quality in-house made beef patties. Quote:

One of the best burgers I had in LA was at a chain called slaters 50/50. I had a picture somewhere, but it was essentially called 50/50 because half the patty is beef and the other half is bacon. I got a 1 1/2 pound burger and you essentially choose your own toppings. The reason I push 5 guys so much, is because there is no fancy sauce (think in and out and triple o's) that they rely on. It's just a simple burger with regular ingredients. The fact that the burger stood out to me because of that was why I love it so much. Everytime I get in this argument with Americans I get them to admit that they love the 1000 island dressing. |
Also I've been told that umami burger is quite good. |
Umami is good, yes, but they rely too much on sauce. |
anyone know if five guys is open? Website still said insert renovation and I went to park royal today and couldn't find the damn joint. Lol if you guys know can you please direct me to where exactly is located? Thanks Posted via RS Mobile |
