"The short rib patty differentiates Santa Monica’s Heavy Handed from the rest of the pack. The burger is fatty and rich and only benefits from the addition of American cheese, caramelized onions, bread and butter pickles, and a healthy dosing of “heavy” sauce. Just be warned, the potato bun does its best to hold this burger together, but it is bound to get messy. Heavy Handed also now has a second location in Studio City and a third in Silver Lake. The burger is quite hearty by itself, but don’t skip out on the crispy, salty beef tallow fries. End meals here with a creamy soft serve cone, encapsulated in a sweet chocolate shell. Know before you go: Heavy Handed has locations in Santa Monica, Studio City, and Silver Lake, making it an easy stop on any side of town." - Eater Staff
