Grease done right. Get yourself a "Phat Bob," (cheese, bacon, BBQ, mayo, onion rings) or the 1/2 pound "The Bomb" (with homemade chili) to feel like a real homegrown American.
How can you not trust this place with a sign like that? Seriously though, Sam's has been around since 1966. And, oh yeah, it's Anthony Bourdain-approved.
"From pasture to plate" is their claim. A burger without the guilt? Yes, please!
It's so good it graduated from pop-up status and is now making it even harder to choose between a burrito and a burger when you're in the Mission. The menu is short and simple — exactly what you need from a burger joint. And then there's the queso tots.
The best place to get messy (try the Green Chile Cheeseburger) and stay classy (pair it with a smooth California wine).
Quality California beef with all the fixn's. How can you resist something named the "Best Damn Grass Fed Cheeseburger"? Seriously. How?
Fast food with an artisan swirl. The beef is sourced from family-owned farms, and the buns are locally made. And it's one of the cheaper options in town...
The Plant Burger is their trademarked specialty. It's pretty to look at — ooh, purple! — and stuffed with veggies. For the health-conscious vegan in us all, this is an absolute winner.
Around since 1979, this hotspot is known for its bison burgers (which are higher in protein and lower in fat than beef).
Grass-fed burgers? Beer? Outside? Ok, fine. If we have to.
So, what are you waiting for? We recommend a burger-hopping day, so you can rate the best burgers in San Francisco for yourself. And don’t worry about all that greasy goodness — just climb a few hills and you’ll be ready for the next round.
