So I'm flying to NY with some friends soon and I'm going to stay in a rented house really close to times square. We already have decided what we are going to see each day etc... but I would love to have an authentic good american burger just like in the movies hehe. Oh, kebabs will do fine too ^_^ Anyone here from NY willing to share some knowledge? Thanks in advance!

The best burger in the world is a double double from In N Out.
No burger can beat that.
As a californian who moved to New York, BLue 9 Buger is the closest tthing to In N Out
Thereofre Blue 9
But it's nowehere close to in n out

On a more serious note, it's probably found in some restaurant, not some sort of fast food joint, or even any form of chain. AND it's probably going to be close to Time's Square.

I cant believe people are recommending fast food places. Shame on you. He wants the real thing, not some fake garbage that makes you shit 5 minutes after you eat it.

hi im from new york. the best burger? peter luger's steakhouse.

oh, you mean the best burger that won't cost a million bucks? i dont know. as a new yorker, its not something i really think about. new york is famous for its pizza and that is something i think about all the time. i recommend going after the best slice. di fara's pizza is my personal favorite but if you google 'best pizza in new york' youll find a million great places to go (nymag.com has a good guide)

additionally, we have awesome middle eastern food (you said you wanted kebab's) and i would go after that, too. again, google is better than team liquid in this case. don't be afraid to take a trip to the outer boroughs, but if you can't, manhattan will have some great stuff.

new york is not famous for its burgers - although we have some great ones. we're famous for countless other types of food.

there are so many places that has burgers in them... just try one near your rented house or get your friends to try some burgers and you guys decide on the best one!

Shake Shack

Burger Joint


Both these places get + points for atmosphere: Shake Shack for being nice in the park (maybe not so nice in the winter) and Burger Joint for being a nondescript hidden place in the back room of a hotel.
