The Burger Guys' Review

Reviewed July 25, 2018

The RN74 Prime Burger at International Smoke is a culinary conundrum that dances between delight and disappointment. The burger boasts a bold personality, with onions and cheese harmonizing beautifully with the meat and bun, creating a memorable bite. However, the experience is marred by a dry bun and a cheese layer that feels more like a hidden afterthought than a feature. The smokiness of the burger is prominent, but the meat itself struggles to shine through the ensemble. The sweet bun admirably holds its own against the burger's messiness, yet the overall composition feels disjointed. While the cheddar and pork belly add a flavorful punch, the burger's essence doesn't quite justify its price tag. A mixed bag of flavors and textures, the RN74 Prime Burger scores a respectable 3.44 out of 5, leaving room for improvement in its quest for burger greatness.
