Hey All! I won a bet and will be treated to one juicy hamburger and all of the french fries I can eat by Tad!

I have been trying to do my research. My current top four are:

Five Guys Hamburgers
BurgerFi
M-Shack
Ruby Tuesday's

What other jewels of j'town am I missing??? I would be open to trying something new!

Glenn, I know you're in the Town Center area. Can't go wrong the Loop either.

What was the bet?

Tad told me that if I came to his neck of the woods in The Riverside so he didn't have to drive I could pick the lunch spot and if it took me longer than 30 minutes to get there, he would buy me a hamburger! It took 37 minutes and I picked Wendy's for lunch but said I wanted to really think about where to get the perfect hamburger!!!!  8)

I didn't even think about The Loop  :o :o :o

It is all about the best burger and the best fries KenFromFSU  :P  The Loop does have one juicy burger, but big ol soggy steak fries!  >:(

Funwithteeth I am leaning towards the M Shack. Tots or fries though that's the biggest question  :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

I drove out to Atlantic Beach last weekend specifically for a Col. Mustards Phat Burger.  Was not disappointed.

I've heard Poe's is good, too, but didn't want to deal with the brunch crowd, and someone else suggested that I try out Graffiti.

Epik Burger is definitely a place you want to try out - in your neck of the woods even.

You've asked the question, and you're going to get different answers from everyone who responds. 

Good luck.

Personally, I like a really good burger but it is actually far down my list of food priorities so I must admit I havent tried that many.

I've enjoyed burgers at many places, but my favorite to this day in Jax was Jolly Mon's at Bold City (RIP) I recently had an awesome burger at Black Sheep, and it was so great that I had it again a week later. They actually make it medium rare too.

Five Guys has to be the most overrated burger joint by far.  No tasted whatsoever.  I like The Loop, Poe's, Cruiser's.

I can vouch for Graffiti Junktion, they made good burgers.

Try the Hermosa Beach burger at Jimmy Hula's. I frequent the one at Atlantic and Hodges.  Live music on Fridays.

The Southern Burger at Blind Rabbit is my favorite.

Taverna or Olio have the best fries in town.  I've had the Taverna burger and it's fantastic, but have not tried the burger at Olio.
