Marcel
A first-rate steakhouse and bar by Ford Fry, Marcel certainly wouldn't be the first place to come to mind as far as burgers are concerned, but boy do they know how to make a good one. The perfect stop to satisfy any late-night cravings, Marcel is a trip back in time to the days when all the little things about food and time was appreciated.
Marcel's Double Stack burger features loosely ground beef patties with a fantastic sear and an abundance of meaty juices. Sitting pretty on a soft and buttery bun, the burger is topped with an extra thick-cut of bacon. This is a burger!

Bottle Rocket Fine Food and Beverage
Located in the downtown area of Castleberry Hill, Bottle Rocket Fine Food and Beverage offers an eclectic menu of sushi, comfort cocktails, and burgers. Though Bottle Rocket is typically known for its sushi, having been a Japanese restaurant called Wasabi in the past, their menu features one of the top burgers in Atlanta – the Bottle Rocket Burger.
Made with Black Angus beef, the Bottle Rocket Burger is topped with green leaf lettuce, red onions, and tomato. Despite the utter simplicity of the burger, the flavors come together so beautifully that diners may even forget the house fries that come with it. Another popular burger on the menu is the tuna burger, which is made with sushi-grade tuna and held together by panko breadcrumbs and a quail egg.

Miller Union
Known for simple and sustainable Southern cooking, Miller Union may be one of the fancier restaurants in town but that doesn't mean they don't know how to throw down a darn good burger. The lunch-only grass-fed beef burger is a carnivore's dream with its sesame-seed bun, sharp cheddar, aioli, smoked ketchup, tomato, and lettuce.
With Steven Satterfield at the helm of Miller Union, each ingredient that goes into this charmer of a burger is well thought out to create the perfect harmony of toppings in each bite. Truly, Miller Union proves that you don't need to have fancy ingredients to whip up one of the most satisfying and sought-after burgers in town.
