Fodor's Review:

What's a college burger bar, done up in particleboard and rec-room decor, doing hidden inside of a five-star Midtown hotel? This tongue-in-cheek lunch spot buried in the Parker Meridien does such boisterous midweek business that lines often snake through the lobby. Stepping behind the beige curtain you can find baseball cap-wearing grease-spattered cooks dispensing paper-wrapped cheeseburgers and crisp thin fries. Forget Kobe beef or foie gras—these burgers are straightforward, cheap, and delicious.

Perhaps the best thing about the Burger Joint is knowing that you are in the know for a hidden gem (inside the lobby of the Parker Meridien Hotel).

The prices have gone up, but there are not very many deals in Midtown that can match the Burger Joint.
