"Gotham Burger Social Club is different from other smash burgers. Instead of leaning into simplicity — cheese, patty, bun — it heaps on mustard, ketchup, burger sauce, pickles, jalapeños, and griddled onions, too, for one of the best burgers in town. One other way it’s different: You can order one with an old-school egg cream or a side of fried pickles. This storefront opened on the Lower East Side at the start of the year: before that, owner Mike Puma ran Gotham Burger Social Club at pop-ups across town." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
