Great Cheeseburgers at La Grande Orange in Santa Monica, California

Don't be fooled into thinking you're gonna get a good burger at the Pasadena LGO location. Quite the opposite. Based on this review and photo I tried the cheeseburger in Pasadena this weekend. Soggy bun (top and bottom were smooshed down to about 1/4 " each because they were moist and couldn't hold up) and tasteless meat. Inedible taste wise and inedible in trying to eat a burger as you should- with at least 1 hand. What a mess. 1/2 thru trying to eat I gave up, my napkin looked like a 6 month's old bib after 8 courses of Gerber's.
"LGO Hospitality founder Bob Lynn. Lynn spent twenty-five years building the Houston's brand" - interesting. There's a Houston's 1/2 block away from the Pasadena LGO and it's VERY busy while the LGO resto is not at all busy (based on 3 visits and others' observations). There's a good reason for that and it's not the terrific interior.

Yawn--I was there last night--the burger was bland--no seasoning on the patty and no crust from the griddle. The fries were soggy. On a positive note: the bun was fantastic. Sadly, 12 bucks is lot of dough for a nice bun.

@CHIP P - What a bummer! So sorry the Pasadena LGO didn't measure up to my Santa Monica experience. I've been to SM location 3 times now - burgers each time and have yet to be let down.
