The delicious indulgence we enjoy today was a byproduct of the early 20th century. We had a rapidly changing society that was filled with a growing working middle class in need of an affordable, mass produced meal that could be eaten on the go. The Hamburger became largely associated with Fast Food in the 1980’s, and by the 1990’s McDonalds, Jack in the Box, and Burger Kings could be found on every corner.


The hamburger of today is not your daddy's or grandpapi's burger of yesteryear. Celebrity Chefs, professionally trained cooks, high-end ingredients and a desire to improve flavor combinations have inspired a wealth of options onto the market place. It is a burger lover’s time to shine. So, in no specific order here is my “Top 10 Best Hamburger Joints in Los Angeles”…
