Bobby's Burger Palace

B.B.P. is the bomb!! My Philly Burger was great. The burger was just right, nice size, and done to perfection. I was completely satiated.

Went to Bobby's Burger Palace today since the line stopped going all the way outside and I was in the mood for the burger. I had looked at the menu beforehand and had decided on trying the L.A. Burger (with turkey, not beef). I knew it would be a bit pricey for a burger ($8.10 including tax), but I thought it must be worth it then. Only, it turned out it wasn't. At all. The L.A. Burger is supposed to have watercress and avocado relish as the thing that makes it special. I didn't expect them to overload the burger, but was I really wrong to have expected more than just three thin (almost wilted) pieces of watercress? How about more than half a teaspoon of avocado relish in the middle of the burger? And for some reason they gave me three pickles on the side, but forgot the raw onion I had asked for. Also, the turkey burger didn't even look like it was done, so i had to cook it more when I got home. Mind you, I found all this out when I got home because I had ordered take-out, so there wasn't much my starving self could do about it. By the way, when you order take-out, you have to stand in a huddled mass between the door and the tables and wait there for your order. I imagine it makes the seated customers rather uncomfortable to have such a large group of people hovering so close behind them while they eat and talk. $8.10 is less than what others have paid here since I only got one burger, but it's still far too much for the quality (or lack thereof) that you'll actually be getting. At least it tasted fine, anyway, but it was by no means anything special or anything that you couldn't get at a pizza shop. Though I have gone to pizza shops with better burgers and certainly way better value than Bobby's Burger Palace. I'm not exaggerating, I just wish I were.

We arrived yesterday at 1 pm and gave our order to the one cashier/order taker one hour later. There were 3 order stations, but only one was being used. Long lines to order, but plenty of empty tables. Manager refused to accept responsibility for long wait and was rude. Will not go back.
