LT Burger (8 West 40th Street, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues – 212-582-8200) hosted a grand opening on Monday evening, introducing a capacity crowd to the incredibly well-appointed space and the stellar cuisine to rave reviews. The restaurant is located in a former bank space and the marble detailing remaining from its former incarnation go a long way in helping create an stunningly handsome space in which to devour Chef Tourondel’s delicious burgers and other bites. From the sliders to the fried pickles, everything we tasted evoked truly great burger joints we’ve had the pleasure of experiencing, yet somehow one-upped them all! Conclusion? LT Burger is definitely worth checking out whether you enjoy truly beautiful spaces, have a discerning palate, or are blessed and have both!
