"Chef Javier Barduil’s neo steakhouse is a celebration of live-fire cooking and Argentine tradition, and Barda’s burger is no exception. It’s a thick patty deliciously kissed by wood fire, served on a soft bun with melty provolone cheese and a swipe of Dijonaise. There are no fries to speak of, but a wonderful substitute is the charred Caesar salad. Keep in mind that Barda’s burger is only available if you actually sit at the bar. There are far worse fates, however; Barda’s bar is gorgeous — sunken so that you’re eye level with the bartender, and features a countertop studded with bright blue tile." - Danny Palumbo
