The Definitive Burger Rankings

Best Burgers is a city-by-city burger ranking platform where deputized professional raters independently score every burger across three dimensions: Meat, Bun, and Essence.

Think Rotten Tomatoes for burgers. Expert “critics” scores sit alongside community ratings and reviews, giving you the most complete picture of any burger in the city.

We launched in San Francisco with The Burger Guys. The platform is designed to scale city by city — each with its own crew of professional raters using the same scoring system.

How It Works

🥩🍞✨

Three Dimensions

Every burger is scored on Meat, Bun, and Essence (the X-factor) on a 0–5 scale.

👥

Independent Raters

Each city has 2–4 professional raters who score independently. The final score is the average.
