Brasserie Restaurant – Angus Burger

When in New York City, sometimes you don't have to leave your hotel to have a good tasting and affordable meal. One good example is the Times Square Crowne Plaza. Located at 49th and Broadway, the Brasserie restaurant sits inside the hotel. Attire is casual and it was busy, but not packed. Eating before 8pm in New York City helps as well.

We got seated quickly and the waitress brought out some bread and rolls and asked for our drink order. I ordered a Coke of course. A few minutes passed and our drinks arrived and we gave our waitress our dinner order. I asked her about the burgers and she said they were very good. I went with the Angus burger with bacon and cheese.

Shortly, my dinner platter arrived. It was exactly as ordered. The lettuce and tomato and onions on the side. Several toppings were also present. A generous portion of fries completed the meal.

The burger was hot, huge, juicy, and well cooked. The bacon wasn't your typical wimpy limpy slice but thick well cooked big slices. The cheese was a nice Monterrey Jack. The bun was fresh and warm. The taste was very good. The fries crunchy and hot. The cost was $16 dollars plus Coke.

The Grassy Knoll Diner scores 4 out of 5 shots and recommends The Crowne Plaza Brasserie Restaurant Angus burger for dinner.

    Now that is a cheeseburger. That bacon is fat. For 16.00 in NY that ain’t half bad a price. One of the best on your site so far.

    Yes, it was exceptional. And notice the lettuce and tomato is on the side. Just like I requested at Five guys burger joint.

    Oh man, that’s what I loved about U.S., the burgers. And this one looks exceptionally tasty! And is that pickle on the left?

    Yes sir. Not just thin slices of pickles usually put on the burger, but a whole pickle.

    Ah that’s proper. Pickles are a staple of Polish cuisine, nice to see that they are appreciated in U.S. as well

    You should see them at the Stage Deli in New York City.
