Lucky 13 is a bar, so leave the kids at home. They're not old enough to adequately appreciate these burgers, anyway.

When the weather's nice, dine on the patio. If the Bees are playing, you might even get to see the fireworks over the stadium.

Lucky 13 has plenty of sandwiches, salads, and wraps on its menu, and we're sure they're all delicious, but burgers are the specialty of the house.

They're all made with 100% local chuck, ground fresh, and the bacon is smoked in-house. The buns and bread are baked fresh every day, and the other ingredients are top-quality. With more than a dozen specialty burgers to choose from, you're certain to find a favorite.
The Celestial Burger is truly heaven on earth. It's topped with house-smoked bacon, grilled onions, cheddar cheese and Lucky 13 BBQ sauce.

Pastrami burgers are definitely a thing in Utah, and Lucky 13 makes the best one in the state. The hickory-smoked pastrami is amazing, and it's topped with perfectly-melted Swiss.

One of the more unusual creations here is the Bear Burger. You'd better be hungry and ready for some heat if you order this one.

This massive hunk of meat includes a 14-ounce ground chuck patty topped with belizean habanero puree and roasted habaneros, then it's stuffed in between two grilled cheese sandwiches. As if that wasn't enough, they add caramelized onions and more roasted jalapenos and habaneros inside the grilled cheeses.
The Big Benny is the most massive burger in the state. It starts with 28 ounces of ground chuck, and includes ham, bacon, cheddar, Swiss, and Lucky 13 sauce. This monster stands 12 inches tall!

If you're feeling brave, you might want to take the Big Benny Challenge. You'll have to consume an entire Big Benny and a Lucky 13 burger in just one hour. If you meet the challenge, they'll pay you cash.
No matter which burger you choose, make sure to order it with the rosemary-garlic fries. Yum!
