Umami Burger

Popping up all over LA, this burger chain is a must try. Choose from one of the handcrafted classics including the original Umami burger (shiitake mushroom, caramelized onions, roasted tomato, parmesan crisp and umami ketchup) and the vegetarian-friendly Earth burger (mushroom and edamame patty, white soy aioli, truffle ricotta, cipollini onions, lettuce, slow-roasted tomato), served in a slightly sweet bun. Inspired by the surrounding Latino neighborhood, this location serves up their specialty Carnitas burger with fresh ground pork, house made carnitas, guajillo sauce, jalapeño sour cream, guacamole and tortilla crisps. Picky eaters beware; this burger chain has a strict no substitution policy. Pair your burger with a craft beer and sweet potato fries—you can thank us later.
