Gilt CityApril 29, 2011With four types of patties, 12 types of cheese, 33 toppings, 21 sauces and six types of bun, exactly 312,120 different burgers combos are possible. (House-made guac and tangy tzatziki are two faves.)Upvote2Downvote
If you share a burger, tell them & they'll bring you & your companion a half burger on separate plates. Then splurge on a full order of fries & beer :)UpvoteDownvote- Kristin Reichardt RummellSeptember 27, 2011A fun way to make a standard burger-and-fries date gourmet. :-D I like it with brie, carrots, cranberries and apricot sauce on a bed of lettuce. Yummmmm! Read moreUpvote1Downvote

Marco GonzalezJuly 26, 20111/3 lb turkey patty, wheat buns, Brie cheese, cranberry, mixed greens, scallions, and either ginger soy glaze (sweeter taste) or garlic aioli (enhances cheese flavor)UpvoteDownvote

Andy DaveyMarch 2, 2015It's expensive and the lighting is terrible. It's better in the afternoon I'll bet. The pesto burger on a pretzel bun is excellent.UpvoteDownvote

Joanne C.June 26, 2011Got lazy trying to customize and discovered their grilled chicken signature burger. I should be lazy more often. It was surprisingly tasty.UpvoteDownvote
John K.February 7, 2011The key at The Counter is to restrain yourself. There's a reason why other burger joints don't offer 50 toppings on a burger. Stick to your basic favorites and don't go overboard.UpvoteDownvote
Windsong ChartersJanuary 30, 2012Medium rare = raw. Or the chef just wanted to get the heck outta there. A little stingy on the cheese.UpvoteDownvote- Ike IFebruary 9, 2011Had the Bison burger last Saturday(2/5/11) and it was delightful!UpvoteDownvote

Parking is often easier behind the storefront -- Admiralty side.UpvoteDownvote
Dave LevineJuly 7, 2011Certain toppings should be served warm but are instead ice cold. Average burgers at best.Upvote1Downvote
Dan MilanoApril 6, 2010Don't go overboard, i've had way too many counter burgers ruined by a dozen competeing tastes.Upvote1Downvote
Chef Rawk (Krissy)August 18, 2011Don't waste your money. Hit up Hinano's. They have the best burgers and turkey burgers.
