TOTAL SCORE: 31

NOTES:

- this joint made me feel like arthritis – swollen and sore

- they should call this the ballpark nacho burger, not bad if you like your cheese pumped

- service was excellent despite a poorly executed burger

- shredded lettuce and sesame seed bun screams cafeteria grade

- super sloppy and super lame bun that disintegrated when handled

- there were multiple bun options on the menu, but none were offered by the server

- according to the menu it was to have chipotle aioli (missing) and pepper jack cheese (nacho pump cheese)

TOTAL SCORE: 33

NOTES:

- don’t get this burger, it will make you feel gross

- shredded lettuce is always a terrible move so you know it’s gonna suck when they first bring it

- they fried a whole piece of cheese with the chorizo and it was in the shape of the primary patty but bigger

- did I mention not to get this burger?

- 10 mozzarella sticks to a pound of oil on a pre-made burger patty is what it tasted like

- sucked, brah!

Point Loma Sports Grill and Pub

9. BURDEN 1 2 3 4 5
10. BUZZ 1 2 3 4 5

TOTAL SCORE: 33

NOTES:

- tons of flat screen tv’s with a good layout for sports viewing

- the bun was uninspiring and not Kaiser as advertised, pretty much your standard sesame seed bun, but at least toasted

- I think the fries were of the frozen Ore Ida variety and despite the addition of Cajun seasoning, which was apparently for color only, they were vary bland and undercooked

- it was a good amount of food for the price, but not necessarily good food

- the bacon and grilled jalapenos, added for 50 cents each, definitely saved this burger from being bland

- it was a bit dry for being medium rare and needed the addition of ketchup and mustard to make it work

- a cool place to watch sports and eat, but not the best place for a burger

- I recommend the wings, which were pretty tasty

- the service was particularly slow today, not the case with other visits, so the burden got docked significantly despite the burger not being messy

- I think they could probably come up with a better name for this place, less generic and wordy






James: THE PUB BURGER w/ garlic fries. 8 oz. burger, medium rare, with cheddar cheese, bacon, grilled jalapenos, lettuce, tomato and red onion on a sesame seed bun.

10. BUZZ 1 2 3 4 5

TOTAL SCORE: 31

NOTES:

- pretty vanilla overall

- bun was pale looking and unappetizing

- meat had no flavor and they cooked it medium well even though it was supposed to be medium rare

- lettuce was shredded which is super lame

- tomatoes are green which is even lamer

- don’t get garlic fries because they put a scoop of garlic on top and leave it up to you to toss it up

- pretty neat location to check out sports and eat appetizers

- no burger selection and all the toppings are extra

- fries are kind of soggy

- wings aren’t crisp enough

- I’m still hungry, but I don’t really feel like finishing my burger because it is a buzz kill

The Lumberyard (North County)

We've expanded our blog to North County and opened a new world of possibilities. Here's our first excursion to the North in a little town called Encinitas. Our original attempt was to blog Encinitas Alehouse, but due to its small size and massive crowd we ended up across the street where we were pleasantly surprised...

9. BURDEN 1 2 3 4 5
10. BUZZ 1 2 3 4 5

TOTAL SCORE: 42

NOTES:

- this was a pretty big burger, luckily I am pretty good at eating

- it was nice to actually get asked how I want my burger cooked and have it come out exactly as ordered, it’s been awhile

- I can’t fault the burden for a super juicy burger that I ordered medium rare, luckily my fries did a pretty good job of soaking up the run-off

- I was skeptical of the pretzel bun at first, seemed kinda gimmicky, but it came through in the end and held together beautifully, don't knock it 'til ya try it

- Genius Idea #29: stuff the pretzel buns with nacho cheese

- the blue cheese and rub were very zesty

- my only beef with this place was that there were 8 burgers on the menu, but most of them contained pretty standard toppings, a few specialty topping options would boost the bonuses score

- full bar, but they could use a few more good beer options in my opinion

NOTES:

- medium rare to perfection

- pretzel bun was probably my favorite bun ever

- could not finish due to the enormity of the burger

- bbq was tangy and bold

- place is very spacious and non-douchie, but could use a couple of bar games

- really nice woody interior, needs a stage for live bands

9. BURDEN 1 2 3 4 5
10. BUZZ 1 2 3 4 5

TOTAL SCORE: 41

NOTES:

- this place goes off at happy hour, even on a Wednesday, probably due to the great happy hour deal on local beers (a pint of Green Flash for $3!)

- last time I was here we got thrown out, but that’s another story not related to burgers

- despite the toasted bun holding up to the girth of the burger and toppings things still got pretty sloppy, might need a wet nap or two

- it’s one tall bundle, if you can wrap your mouth around it your mind will follow

- the patty was well seasoned but over cooked, would have been much tastier if done medium rare

- the bacon was amazing with lots of smoky flavor and somehow it was crunchy and chewy at the same time

- I think the Heinz ketchup was either an imposter or watered down, pretty runny stuff

- very friendly server, apologized for the wait for a beer and rewarded us with a free shot, now that’s service

TOTAL SCORE: 42

NOTES:

- pretty messy, I had to use 5 napkins just to be able to hold my pen

- it wasn’t soggy, however

- a generous burger

- I could barely down it, but I did , minus the lost burger toppings

- great bundle but almost had too much going on

- mushrooms probably don’t add too much to this burger

- only problem was it was a little charry

- good flavor, but kind of dried out

- bacon was perfect

- bun was average grocery store style, but at least toasted

- basically this burger could have been one of the best of all time if it was cooked medium rare and had a fancier bun

TOTAL SCORE: 31

NOTES:

- pretty large and in charge

- slightly stupid prices, each side for 1 bone, including cheese (on top of $9.50), say what?

- tantalizing teriyaki saved this burger from Dullville

- grilled mushrooms made my mouth water while the shredded cheese made me question if it was meant for a taco

- more options & improved toppings would do this score an extreme makeover

- terrible music dropped this score like it’s hot

NOTES:

- kind of a poser bar with a lot of shiny new longboards on the wall that are just there to make it look like a local place

- pretty good beer selection, above average, but not mind blowing

- burger was delicious, but kind of pricey if you want to get all the extras

- $1 for cheese, really? On a $10 burger? GFY!

- BBQ sauce was really awesome and the gouda cheese was a great compliment

- music really sucks, so if you’re thinking of staying for a few more, don’t

- I hustled this burger down no problem

- they forgot to put my grilled onions on the burger, because the dummy waitress thought she could memorize by order, too bad she didn’t

- good beer selection and that’s about it

- these are some of the best side options I’ve seen for a burger plate and for a very reasonable price as well

- a steakhouse at heart with a bit of burger in the soul

- bun to meat ratio was a little too skewed toward the bun side

- bacon was deliciously chewy

- Anaheim chile added bodacious flavor

NOTES:

- burger, burger, burger…(just trying to improve Google rankings

- I thought it was a really good burger, but it wasn’t cheap…

- I could eat more & there are really no options…but really tasty

- I would definitely order again…
