This burger bistro was an immediate hit in its original Westport location. After just a couple of years, its owners shrewdly moved it to a bigger, more high-profile location on the Country Club Plaza and quickly replicated their success serving expensive but beautifully crafted hamburgers (including a Surf + Turf version with American Kobe beef topped with a grilled lobster tail) along with fries, onion rings and spiked milkshakes. The dining room is stark and noisy, but the energy level is upbeat. If you dont mind the close proximity of some of the tables (which make intimate conversations nearly impossible), its all great fun. Chef Josh Eans tweaked the original menu, adding several creative choices, including a $100 Burger priced at $15 thats filled with red-wine-braised short ribs. — Charles Ferruzza
