Fodor's Review:

Angelenos still adore the venerable Apple Pan, but they've also embraced its upscale, contemporary burger-joint counterpart. Here—by checking off your preferences on a sushi bar-style order sheet—you can select beef, turkey, or veggie patties, then specify your preferred cheeses, toppings, one of 18 different sauces (anything from honey-mustard to peanut), and bun (or, for carb counters, a "burger-in-a-bowl"). Even with the slick surroundings and wild combinations, this emerging chain is a nostalgic reminder of L.A.'s ongoing love affair with the burger.

Keep in mind: Reservations not accepted.

I love this place. Everytime I go I try to get something new, which is easy with all the choices you get. Can get a bit crowded, but great beers and burgers to die for. Large portions also!
