"Win-Dow is—you guessed it—a tiny takeout window attached to American Beauty, a steakhouse on Rose Avenue in Venice (they've also got locations in Silver Lake and on the Venice boardwalk). They do straightforward, no-frills smash patties griddled with onions, topped with American cheese, pickles, and tangy house sauce, and served on a potato roll—all for under $5. What's not to like? The burger is crispy yet juicy (and a touch salty, which is OK by us), the onions are soft and sweet, and the cheese is sufficiently gooey. They do innovate a bit, too: We love their breakfast burger with egg, plus they make a very good vegetarian burger with a smashed Impossible patty.
