Grillshack Fries & Burgers

You can find plenty of fancy burger joints around town. You know, the gastropub-type places with toppings like foie gras and eggs that have been coddled with ASMR videos to ensure extra runniness. Then you have Grillshack, which has no indoor seating, just a few tables on the outside patio, and a takeout window doling out some of the best (and simplest) burgers in the city. There’s hardly anything to distract from the ⅓-pound patty sourced from Bear Creek farms and the grilled roll from Charpier’s Bakery outside of the Nations. Their fries, which are hand-cut and generously piled next to your burger, are a masterclass in crafting the perfect thick-cut spuds.
