It's really not even that good unless you've been drinking at the bar all day. The beef is poorly seasoned and the fixins are all pretty weak. The fries and bacon are only good when turnover is fast. If they've been sitting around or the bar is slightly empty then prepare for chewey re-cooked bacon and cold, hard fries. Have you seen my <a href="http://nycfoodguy.com/2008/03/04/brooklyn-diners-cheeseburger-deluxe-midtowns-best-burger-is-worth-the-price/" rel="nofollow">Brooklyn Diner burger</a>? <a href="http://nycfoodguy.com/category/burgers/five-guys-burgers-and-fries/" rel="nofollow">Or Five Guys</a>? Look at those two and tell me there are greazier burgers in this city.... Loubert,

No way is Corner Bistro the greaziest burger in NYC. It’s really not even that good unless you’ve been drinking at the bar all day. The beef is poorly seasoned and the fixins are all pretty weak. The fries and bacon are only good when turnover is fast. If they’ve been sitting around or the bar is slightly empty then prepare for chewey re-cooked bacon and cold, hard fries.

Have you seen my Brooklyn Diner burger? Or Five Guys? Look at those two and tell me there are greazier burgers in this city….

The cheeseburger hype circle? Out of control. Once I got through the "thoughtful stuff" (read: not just drooling at food porn and seeing ocassional words), I was cracking up. Those massive burgers are nuts. I don't know if the Zaitzeff burger really falls into the Greazy category though, I found the burgers, particularly the Kobe, to be kind of dry and not very greasy at all. What's the greaziest burger you've ever had not fast food. Check this guy's site out people for a gluttonous look at some seriously dangerous grub. Loubert,

I haven't been there myself but my faith in this Zaitzeff family business is wavering. I had my first Kobe burger at the Financial District location and was equally disappointed with a burger that lacked the "wow" flavor I'd expected. It was ordinary at best. Did you get your bun toasted? There's nothing worse than lost servers and a bad burger. Sorry to hear you had a bad experience but thanks for letting us know about it. It's great to hear from a regular reader. Have you had any noteworthy eating experiences lately? What are some of your regular go to spots for burgers? Are you a BBQ fan? Lizzy

The restaurant decor was cute, although a little chilly. Maybe because of the subway tiles covering the walls and floors. My main concern however, was with the food. The kobe beef burger was completely unseasoned! It was also soggy. My favorite thing about burgers is that crispy salty crust made from grilling it hot and fast, with gooey cheese everywhere. The Portuguese bun was also nothing to write home about, give me a potato bun anyday. Too expensive for what you get. I don't think i'll be back. Oh and the servers were confused all night, they don't seem to have been trained very well.
