"At $38 the Black Label Burger at Minetta Tavern was one of the first super-luxe burgers in the city—and it’s still one of the best. The butter-basted patty is made from dry-aged ribeye, and it's topped with a mound of caramelized onions on a Balthazar bun. The Minetta Burger ($31) is slightly juicier, with a little less funk, and it comes with cheddar. Reservations can be hard to get on short notice, but try for a walk-in bar seat (we've also seen them packing this burger out for delivery)." - will hartman, bryan kim, neha talreja, willa moore, kenny yang
