5 Napkin Burger - NYC



City Present's quest for the best burger in New York continues.

This weekend it was Five Napkin's turn. A beautiful, bustling diner on Restaurant Row, 5 Napkin is popular, and usually has a wait. But with quick turnover, its worth a drink at the bar.

The menu, from Andy d’Amico of Marseille and Nizza, features a number of $12-15 burgers, some typical meat-centric entrees (ribs, steak, lemon chicken), the obligatory schmancy cocktail list, and naturally sushi and maki rolls. Try an original burger, and "upgrade" your fries to Tuscan seasoning. The fact that there's California rolls on the menu gives you the gist:

Oh and save room for dessert. We tried the S'mores Milkshake. It was well worth the wait.
