Looks like they couldn't find the bun to tame that first bad boy you pictured! Thanks for the pics. I live in Asia so I don't get to try this stuff but we have some decent burgers out here, too.

Being a Bostonian, it ain't too often that I'm in NYC sampling burgers. But while staying at a hotel on Lexington, I ate at "Rare" (located in the hotel) several times over the course of a couple of weeks. Consistently tasty burgers, cooked to order. Sometimes tough to get a seat at the bar, never mind the restaurant. But once seated, I had no problems w/ the food or the service. The fries were also pretty good too, but those burgers were phenomenal.

We have a great burger place up here called "RF O'Sullivans" and I would place the Rare burger right up there w/ O'Sullivans.

Regarding a recent visit to Bleeker location: While the burgers are decent, be prepared for bad service and high prices. Brush up on your Spanish before going if you want to order. And if you need soap or hand towels in the bathroom, be prepared to re-stock yourself. Also, be warned about the special "cheese of the week from Murrays" -- they charge five bucks a slice. Yup, $5 bucks for a slice of cheese on top of a $15 bison burger. Oh and a 16oz Guinness is $8. Ouch. Felt like I'd been robbed when I shuffled out of there. The service, while good-intentioned was terrible and the prices outrageous, so the quality of the food has no possibility to outweigh its faults.

Although that Rare Classic looks damn tasty, it's awkwardly tall and wobbly looking. I definitely appreciate structure and stability in a burger. I picture all the ingredients sliding around annoyingly bite after bite.
