Third Burger - Mr. Henry's

Where: Mr. Henry's Restaurant/Victorian Pub. 601 Pennsylvania Avenue, SE. 202-546-8412. http://www.mrhenrysrestaurant.com/

We went on April 27. It was 1/2 price burger night but we decided to sit on the patio so we paid full price. Don't really understand the rule. But whatever the price the burger is worth it.

der burger: Their hamburgers come with lettuce, tomato, pickles and onions with a side of mayo, coleslaw, and warmed tortilla chips. Regular Hamburger: 1/2 lbs Angus beef: $8.45. Cheeseburger: 1/2 lbs Angus beef with choice of America, Swiss, Cheddar or Provolone: $8.95.

Sweet Jesus these burgers were soooooooo good. Moxie kept saying "MMMMMMMM" while chewing. And that sums up our experience pretty well.

I got the cheeseburger with Cheddar and kept everything but the onions on it. (but it could've done without the fixings too) It had a nice crispy crust to the burger and cooked medium inside. It was so delicious I couldn't really take notes. I had been to Mr. Henry's before but had never had their burger before for some unknown reason. But that is at an end now. This burger is heavenly! I thought we'd get a cranked out dull version because it was 1/2 price burger night, but if this was the ho-hum version then my tastebuds aren't prepared for the no holds barred version. I have to give this my highest rating so far of 9.8=heavenly/you come here only for the burgers. The only improvement that could be made to this burger was if the bun had been toasted. Seriously. Don't touch the burger!!! No improvement can be made!!!

Moxie got the regular hamburger, medium, and I'm pretty sure removed all of the fixings it came with. She has eaten the burgers here before and has declared this place as her favorite burger place in DC. And I can see why. Its at a 9.5 on her scale, a toasted bun as the only possible improvement.

Moxie uses the metro stop near here (and used to live nearby) so she's eaten here many times and says that the quality is pretty par for the course. I will now go here everytime I need a burger fix. And we suggest you do to.

Go here.

Now.
