Basic Burger - Lenfant Plaza

Food was very good especially given that the restaurant is in a food court. The burgers are made to order so you know they are right off the grill. The fries are also amazing and crispy! One of the best burgers I have had in a long time!

Very hard to find this place. Signs indicated in one food court but actually need to enter the hotel across street and go down some stars in the lobby (we asked concierge, very helpful) and then go all way to end of mall area, turn left and it's there. Once you find it, food is delicious! They use canola oil so great for my soy allergy. My fried was vegan, gluten free and they had a vegan burgers and GF bun. The normal fries are house seasoned which is very yummy. The sweet potato fries were very good too.

Phenomenal burger. We both enjoyed the bacon double cheeseburger. Grab plenty of napkins. Burgers are fresh and juicy. Borderline sloppy. Yet so, so good. This spot gets a huge lunch hour crowd. We can see why. Friendly folks working here. Definitely a new go to spot when visiting DC.

The day we discovered Basic Burger, I had been craving a hamburger. The name is appropriate, and misleading. My cheeseburger was simple, but everything about it was fantastic! The buns have to be the best I’ve ever tasted. And the condiments, beef and produce were top notch. Just goes to show you, a burger doesn’t need to be outrageous to be delicious. I wish there was a Basic Burger in Phoenix!
