Believe it or not, one of the best burgers on the West Coast is available at a Hawaiian restaurant. That's right, A-Frame, a Hawaiian soul food restaurant in Los Angeles, offers a double cheeseburger that brings out the best in burger aficionados day after day. A-Frame's double cheeseburger consists of tomato confit ("confit" is a fancy word for "preserves" by the way), pickled red onions, butter lettuce, hot sauce sharp cheddar and sesame mayo on a buttered brioche bun. This irresistible burger is great until the last bite, at which point most diners either will feel like they've entered a culinary utopia or will be ready to order a second double cheeseburger immediately.

3. In-N-Out Burger's Cheeseburger
In-N-Out Burger's cheeseburger is simple and tasty – the perfect combination for any man who craves a hunger-satisfying burger. On the surface, this cheeseburger resembles almost any other burger, as it includes two all-beef patties, lettuce, tomatoes, onions and two slices of cheese on a toasted bun. However, after you take a bite of this cheeseburger, you'll notice the overwhelming mix of flavors that make this cheeseburger one of the best in the U.S.


4. Green Street Grill's Bacon Double Cheeseburger
Like it or not, the Boston area is the birthplace of Wahlburgers, but did you know that the area's top burger may belong to a Wahlberg-less restaurant? Green Street Grill remains a favorite for Harvard University and M.I.T. students who crave red meat, and perhaps it's easy to understand why.
