New York has long been home to burger legends<\/a>, from JG Melon to Minetta Tavern. Now the city\u2019s case as the world\u2019s burger capital is officially backed up: Four of the top 25 spots on the new World\u2019s Best Burgers list<\/a> go to New York restaurants\u2014more than any other city worldwide.<\/p>\n

Sip & Guzzle<\/a>\u00a0in the West Village earned the title of best burger in North America and the No. 13 spot overall. The bar only makes a dozen patties a day, grinding A5 Wagyu trimmings and binding them with cured Jidori egg yolk before searing them in a cast-iron pan and basting with beef tallow and butter. The meat is brushed with tare sauce, layered with a house-made Parmesan \u201cKraft single\u201d and tucked into a potato bun from Bread\u2019s Bakery. A shishito relish, smoked aioli and a samurai-skewered pickle finish the build. The result, according to the judges, is a burger that \u201cfeels both familiar and refined\u2014approachable in style, yet executed with meticulous technique.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nowon<\/a>, chef Jae Lee\u2019s buzzing East Village restaurant, follows at No. 15. Its double-patty dry-aged burger blends American cheese, kimchi and gochujang mayo for a fiery Korean-American twist that\u2019s become a cult favorite. The room\u2019s energy mirrors the burger: bold, loud and impossible to forget.<\/p>\n

Red Hook Tavern<\/a> lands at No. 21 with the opposite approach: restraint. A thick dry-aged patty is topped with nothing more than American cheese and a slice of raw onion, nestled in a sesame bun. It\u2019s minimalism that works. The tavern\u2019s candlelit setting and tin ceilings provide a sense of timelessness, while the burger itself proves that simplicity, when done right, doesn\u2019t need embellishment.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the New York quartet is 4 Charles Prime Rib<\/a> in the West Village, ranked No. 23. The steakhouse is already known for ceremony, and its double Wagyu cheeseburger is no exception. Two seared patties with American cheese, pickles and onions strike a balance between indulgence and comfort.<\/p>\n

The full list spans cities from Valencia to Melbourne, but no destination can claim as many entries as New York. For once, the city\u2019s burger swagger is officially justified.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York has long been home to burger legends, from JG Melon to Minetta Tavern.
