Umami Burger


Umami Burger is by far one of the best burgers I have tasted, and I believe to arguably be the best burger in Los Angeles. Although they are somewhat small, Umami Burger definitely goes for quality over quantity. They have a wide variety of burgers such as their Original Umami Burger, their Truffle Burger with truffle cheese and glaze, their Manly Burger with bacon and cheddar cheese, and even the interesting Ahi Tuna Burger. I personally ordered the Truffle Burger. It was awesome.

  1. Umami Burger is easily my favorite burger spot in Los Angeles, hands DOWN! I love the manly burger they have, I feel like probably the most manliest person in the room after I scarf one of those down.

  3. Excellent start Kevin. Yes, take Mildred's advice: please give us address, phone, hours, etc. along with other related info - credit cards, other good stuff on the menu, parking... As you write, emphasize smell, taste, texture. Make it sensuous.

    Be sure to read everything you can by Jonathan Gold in the LAT.

  4. I think there is a restaurant that serves an umami burger in downtown los angeles. I went there once but didn't have a burger. The burger on the menu seemed to be unsurprising.

  5. A new one just opened in old town pasadena right next to my work so I decided to give it a shot. Since I am a burger lover and have made some homemade burgers that are chart topping as well as purchased some phenominal ones my standards for a good burger are quite precise. I must say the taste of the Tort and loin burger was prime time. I purchased a side of the french fries as well and I left still quite hungry. Huge downside in my book considering the high prices. I felt like I got great tasting snack, for an entrees full price.
