"No, those giant wolf and owl murals at The Companion aren’t giving you the side-eye while you devour your burger—they’re probably just applauding your excellent choice. The Tower of Power burger is our favorite thing to order at this casual American restaurant on the Upper Westside, it’s stacked with two crispy-edged beef patties and all jazzed up with Million Island dressing (a smooth, dressed up version of old school Thousand Island). Between their chill roomy atmosphere and large patio, The Companion is great for a laid-back lunch alone with your laptop or with friends for a casual catch up." - jacinta howard
"The Companion does many things well, like their double patty burger. So even though this restaurant is hidden away in an Upper Westside neighborhood, it always fills up with regulars who come from near and far because they know the deal. And those who really know, get here on Wednesday nights when their fried chicken special is on the menu. Their golden brown chicken thigh sits on a bed of whipped potatoes, and sometimes comes draped in crisp shredded cabbage and sometimes with garlicky green beans. But no matter the side, the dish feels like watching fireflies from the porch at dusk." - jacinta howard
"If you're ever fondly reminiscing over that famously "big" fast food burger, come to your senses and hit this spacious Upper Westside restaurant instead. For only a few dollars more, The Companion's Tower of Power burger is a way better, dressed-up version of that nostalgic favorite. The beef is super fresh, and it’s stacked with two crispy-edged beef patties that are slathered with Million Island dressing (a smooth, housemade version of old school Thousand Island)." - jacinta howard
"The Bolton neighborhood restaurant from Steinbeck’s chef Andy Gonzales continues to serve up a mean burger, but don’t skip the crazy creative sandwiches on the menu. This includes a birria grilled cheese and the Crunchwrap du jour — a take on a certain fast food joint’s popular sandwich, which can come stuffed with ingredients like spicy pork vindaloo." - Eater Staff
"The Bolton neighborhood restaurant from Steinbeck’s chef Andy Gonzales features a large outdoor patio space complete with games, string lights for evenings, and seating at an outdoor bar. Order the double-stack burger known as the Tower of Power, the sandwich special of the day, or daily dinner specials ranging from fried chicken to lobster rolls." - Eater Staff
