This restaurant is “hidden” behind red curtains, the interior design is pretty cool and the hamburger really are worth it. We tried the works and we loved it. You can easily find a place where to sit and we did not find any queues. Definitely recommended!!

Cannot understand all the recent negative reviews of this place based on our experience: arrived Monday evening at 7pm, no queue and half the tables available. Staff were awesome as well as patient. Food was as good as it was when we were there 10 years ago although prices have gone up. 2x hamburgers, 2x cheeseburgers & 1 fries was more than enough for our family of four and cost us 80 including the beer for me. Well worth it!

Real original and nice place to eat a burger !!!! The burger was awesome and the prices were correct according to NY. As a sticker/ streetart addict totally dig the decoration : walls are covered with tags and stickers. Strongly advise to go there if you live food and art. People were really cool as well.

The unit at the Thompson Central Park is my favorite. Going to a fancy hotel and look for the iconic red curtain is part of the experience. After you cross the curtains it's a new and different world. Nothing that you would expect to find in a hotel. The burgers were and are good. Service is nice and your order comes quickly The space is comfortable. I would say that if I can, I will go there every single time I visit NYC

The best kept secret in Manhattan. I wanted to return inmediately and I haven't exit yet. One of the best burgers I have eaten in my life. A very basic menu but very good products. A well cooked meat, a very good bread and a very large portion of fríes. If you go to NYC, you must to visit at least one time. Go early, the line could be long but it is worth the time you wait. Its already on my list when I return to New York.

This hidden gem in the Thompson Central Park Hotel, behind the red curtain, serves up a great burger spot. The burgers are delicious, but I noticed that the patties could use a bit more seasoning. One french fries is enough for sharing between two people. The beer options are good, and they even offer pitchers. While I found it a bit overpriced, overall, it was a great experience.

Very good burgers! One patty is enough since they are juicy and you can add some nice toppings. The sweet potato fries are amazing! Also the beer selection is ok. Awesome place!

2 cheeseburgers with the works and we shared an order of fries. We were there for lunch on a Sunday so there was no lineup but it's a good idea to know the menu online first. They will ask you how you want the doneness of your burger, we ordered medium well. The burgers and fries were great as was the service and you need more stars for the atmosphere!!! A must have when you visit NYC!
