The cat’s out of the bag for Marc Forgione’s off-menu burger: Every day, the Tribeca steakhouse tweets out the day’s availability of burgers—sometimes 10, a dozen if the team’s feeling generous. (It’s first come, first served and only available at the bar.) You’ll understand what all the fuss is about when you nab one, with a melt-upon-contact beef blend loaded on a house-made bun with beer cheese and caramelized onions.
Burgers are some of New York’s most beloved and democratic eats, rivaling fellow crowd-pleasing comforts like pizza and bagels. So when it came time to vote for the best burgers in NYC, it was only natural that we left the judging up to you burger-loving New Yorkers. From top-rate cheap burgers to old-school classics and upmarket riffs, these are your 69 Battle of the Burger contenders, presented by Budweiser.
