Black Iron Burger in Chelsea, NYC, New York

We passed Black Iron Burger few times and had in mind to go there, thinking that they probably serve killer burgers. Well, I should mention that they are few steps from a Five Guys, so the competition must be fierce! Black Iron Burger is setup like a bar, with TVs and blue lighting that I feared a bit as I do not take any photos with the flash...

Instead of going with their signature burgers, we decided to build our own. Jodi went for a single patty with swiss cheese and pickles.

I went for a double patty with blue cheese, Swiss and caramelized onions.

The way the burgers were presented was a bit sad, although mine looked better than the one Jodi had. On top of that, I was glad to have a double patty as the ratio bread / patty was definitely unbalanced in favor of the bread.

Taste wise, it was ok, nothing to be dreaming about and I admit that I was a bit disappointed considering that this is a place for burgers.

We also ordered some onion rings as a side that looked also sad, but were very good, especially with the ranch sauce.

I should mention that I went for an oreo cookie milkshake with my burger: it was pretty good!

Black Iron Burger was just ok: I prefer Five Guys that is few minutes away. Too bad: I really wanted a good burger that day!

Enjoy (...)!
