Fodor's Expert Review Burger & Lobster

Soho
Burger
Don plastic bibs at this mobbed, limited-choice burger and lobster shack, where there are no reservations (apart from larger groups), no starters, and no printed menu—the blackboard says it all: "Burger or lobster or lobster roll. All with chips & salad. £22." Of the three choices available, the Nova Scotia lobster is the best value; it comes in a butter-soaked brioche bun, with truffle and tarragon mayo and a sturdy pot of fries. Sweet halved lobsters are served with lemon and garlic butter, while the Worcestershire sauce–seasoned burgers are a mix of Irish grass-fed beef and corn-fed cuts from Nebraska, with streaky bacon or Monterey Jack cheese on top.
