Koa's Seaside Grill on the waterfront in Lahaina, Maui serves a really great double burger. Tastes best seated over the water looking at the whales playing in the channel between the islands.

In that setting, oven-roasted sawdust tastes pretty good. Especially if accompanied by a Kona Longboard.

Rocky's Crown Pub in San Diego. No frills, nothing fancy. Just a damn good burger.

But, with a name like OB one I'm surprised you didn't live on the other side of the river and frequent Hodad's.

Still have one of these stickers on my car, and where is Freddie when you need her??? Robertos, maybe.

Sorry if it's been mentioned before but one of my favorites chefs is Sean Brock. I think his burger at Husk in Charleston SC is phenomenal. It's nothing fancy (ie not wagyu no foie no truffle or anything) and it uses American cheese (sacred bleu) but it is darn tasty.

You boys are making me want to visit. I'll be in SD next week, but I'm taking the Amtrak in and will be carless. It is a bit of a ways from my hotel.

Unfortunately there really isn't anything else of interest near it unless you want to walk around the bay. UberX is really cheap though.

I have a lava grill in my kitchen which is used for steaks, burgers, chops, kebabs, satay, koftas, fish, flatbreads etc.

The best burger in the world is the medium rare bacon cheeseburger with a slice of onion, some ketchup and some barbecue sauce that is in my mouth at any given moment.
Bacon, I have come to realize, is the truth. And when placed underneath a good cheddar atop a cheeseburger, it is the ultimate truth. Truth is beauty. Beauty is truth. A good bacon cheeseburger is both.
