BLACK IRON BURGER

After last weeks shit show (literally for one of our group) I was eager to get back on track in pursuit of the perfect burger.......with score cards in hand we cabbed it to the lower east side establishment of Black Iron Burger.......a small pub with an old establishment feel to it........the service was good and the noise level was a non issue......the bathroom, as nice as the old wood was, had a very pissy smell to it and was only one room so it was a good thing the place was not crowded at all......on to the food and drink.....

The drink selection was nice (although they didn't have any type of guinness).....a different beer was suggested to each of us and since we all stayed with the original selection throughout the night they were right on target.......the burger was great......nice staytogetherness......juicy but not too much as to ruin the bun and medium-rare was medium rare......the bun was good as well.......the only thing to note is my one companion and I ended up splitting a second burger......after seeing another patron eating the double patty.....that would have been the perfect call......the fries were tasty as well although a bit on the low count......pickles......just one wedge.......not happy about that.....the condiments were plentiful if you just wanted 57 and mustard.......


This establishment was awarded a 79.5 on my rating scale out of a possible 100........overall a strong showing, I would place this little burger pub in the top 5 so far if not in the top 3.......
