"Emmy Squared is best known for its Detroit-style pies, but they also make a damn good burger. Now that the Brooklyn-based pizzeria has stepped into the kitchen at Santa Monica Brew Works, you can order one of their pub-style, pretzel bun creations any time of day. Our favorite is the “Le Big Matt” burger, a gigantic double-stack bound together with gooey cheese. The juicy, grilled patties come topped with crunchy pickles and a bright pink “sammy sauce.” Though we wish this $19 burger came with a side of fries, the sheer heft of this thing makes up for it." - brant cox, garrett snyder, nikko duren
