The Great Best Burger Quest

Edited 9/3/07

The Rating System

Frankly, we've been making it up as we go along. After the first several ratings, we discovered we had a "grade inflation" problem, and everything was being rated too high. We're now in the process of re-grading everything.

The List

Wimsey and Charlie came up with:

Elysian

Deluxe

Red Mill

The Ram

Hilltop Ale House.

Palace Kitchen is the number one favorite. The one that all others are graded against.

Two Bells - second person said Two Bells has my favorite burger in town (even though I'm not always wild about the crusty bread it's served on). Plus, beer!

Maple Leaf Grill are the next closest.

Collins Pub.

Zesto's in Ballard, 65st and 15th (?).
They have a good burger at a decent price.

Latona Pub in Wallingford has the BEST burger I've had in Seattle. It is served on an Essential Bakery bun and you can request caramelized onions for free.

I'm sure there will be more...
