5 Guys Burgers and Fries every time for quality, service and price LeTub? I've lived w/in walking distance for 20 years and only go if out of town guests insist. They never want to go back. The place is filthy, expensive ; the wait staff is rude and unprofessional and the food is never properly cooked. The last time we were there, the waitress insisted on clsing out our bill in the middle of our meal b/c she was leaving - and got PISSED because we didn't tip... we weren't FINISHED!
Big City hands down best burger in town! Its gigantic,tasty and grilled to perfection. The only issue is its to damn big to bite into.Guys I wish you would open in Boca soon!!!!!!!!!!
Big City Dogs biggest best burger no competion
Le tub has the best burgers but the service sucks and the bartender John is horrible!!! I will never give that bartender a dime again. He is beyond a negative nelly. We stopped hanging at the bar because of him and now we just get a table even if i have to wait.
Big City does make one badass burger.
I Vote Big City Dogs Best Burger I have had in a long time....And that guy behind the counter is one funny Guy..... And Hot dogs are good to....
Hands down best burger in town.They grind fresh meat daily and serve up the real half pounder.Its huge tasty and fresh.
Le Tub 8oz. I realize it's in Sobe, but it's the next best burger to Le Tub
i love burgers and Five Guys gets my vote.
Rosies Bar & Grill
Boston Johnnys in Hollywood is serving up great burgers.Jim Renno,the former owner of the billabong pub has added the billabong burger to the menu and is running the kitchen.
Rosie's Bar & Grill - they serve up some great burgers and sliders. HANDS DOWN!
Char-Hut LeTub Five Guys
Jack's is really really not so good at all when compared to Five Guys. Five Guys sad to say it cause it is technically fast food kills any burger i have had in Broward..unl. toppings that they actually put on the burger for you (unlike Jacks) puts them over the top. Le Tub is good but a little too meat heavy and I cant stand the staff...sorry no excuse to be rude to customers paying good money time and time again...and for god sakes buy a bigger grill already.
a new place in west palm beach is Jackson Hart's. they have the "perfect burger". and it damn near was. i got swiss cheese, cooked medium. very juicy. slider's too with cheddar are just as good. lots of tv's there. inexpensive. wasabi shrimp was great too.
Gotta be Jack's for a perfectly made classic burger.
You guys have to try the burgers at the new Grease restaurant on Clematis. They are the best I've had in years, and the setting's pretty cool too.
I love the sliders at YOLO. Who wants to eat a tired old gigantic burger anyway? Le Tub has had its five minutes of fame and we're tired of it.
A burger is about fresh ground meat that's perfectly cooked and seasoned. 5 Guys can't hold a candle to local joints that have been doing that for years - i.e. Le Tub, Jack's, Char Hut. They're good for a fast food burger joint, and their toppings are tasty, but that's about it. The meat is bland, never seasoned right, and hardly tastes of beef.
You got to give Five Guys some credit. For the price and the quick service, it can't be beat. Le Tub can take an hour and you get crappy, rude service. And sometimes, your medium burger is raw inside!
Le Tub is great. Alligator Alley is better. Add a little hot sauce and it's the perfect food.
Le Tub has the best burger on the planet not just broward.
