i have been meaning to try Six Forks for a while now. Can I get my burger cooked to order? I like the idea of a special custom grind, but don't want it well-done. I certainly don't want to temp-shame anyone, but strongly prefer my burger medium to medium-rare, as a personal choice.
I don't know about "the best", and my personal opinion might even change day-to-day, AND im biased because of its proximity to my house, but shout-out to Kayrouz. I enjoy their grind, simple beefy flavor, and the fact that they cook it to a perfect medium-rare each time.
They also make a fine french dip, tuna salad, club, BLT, etc.
I always enjoy the burger at Jack Fry's, and need to attempt the burger at the Fat Lamb, which I have seen and heard great things about. But every time I go I end up distracted by something else.
Someone else mentioned it, but Game also makes a great burger. I generally go Kangaroo, as it is delicious and I feel that I have to go exotic there, but their prime beef burger is very solid as well.
