What a cool place. The decor is clean and fresh yet warm and inviting. Saying the menu is limited would be an understatement, but what they lack in quantity they make up in quality. They offer three premium burgers; the Lounge Burger made with "grass-fed" beef. A turkey burger loaded with fresh basil, and a vegetarian burger made from organic quinoa (sp?). All burgers come with a home made bun, lettuce, tomato, onion, house-made 1000 island (don't skip this!), and your choice of cheddar or american cheese. My boyfriend always get the lounge burger and swears it is the best burger on the planet. I don't eat red meat so I'll have to take his word for it! For me, it's either the vegetarian burger or vegetable salad with grilled chicken. The vegetable salad is loaded with fresh veggies and tossed with a tasty lemon-basil vinaigrette. This place is a great addition to San Diego. Do yourself a favor and try it out.
Pros: Service, Quality, Ambience
Cons: Parking, Long Line

I eat at Burger Lounge at least once a week. This is clearly the best hamburger I have tasted. One thing I learned about the food from the staff is that Organic Grass Fed Beef tastes like real beef. These cows haven't been subjected to corporate antibiotic laden feed lots. The Hamburgers are juicy, (messy) and to die for. Fresh Cut French Fires and a cold beer and I am in a satisfied state of bliss. My girlfriend is a vegetarian and she loves their own Quinoa Vegetarian Hamburger and Home Made Onion Rings. They have a crispy light texture instead of the beer battered mess most places serve. I recently visited the Burger Lounge in Kensington, (a bit larger) and still totally amazing. The line is out the door but worth the wait every time!
