The true test of a good burger joint is do you go back. Do you think about it when you think of the best burger you've tasted. And, for me, Angelo's fits the description on both accounts.
A don't blink or you'll miss it building with a red and white stripe colour scheme, this is north end hospitality at it's best. A family affair, there is most certainly an Angelo, working the grill, or taking cash (only cash) from a constant line of customers.
Every bit a hole in the wall, Angelo's is nonetheless spotlessly clean and efficient. Seating is limited, but you can't pass up an opportunity to sit and spin on the vinyl top pedestal stools lined up along the lunch counter resplendent in its 1950s teel starbursts, the last excusable use of that particular design element.
Patties are cooked covered on a flat top as any good burger should be. Super thin, they're served up fast on perfectly proportioned sesame seed bun then topped with bacon, chilli, onions and relish.
Because they're so svelte, I found the patties a tiny bit dry, and was left wanting for a little more meat, but the seasonings are spot on!
The chilli wasn't overpowering as it often can be, but because the patty and bun are of modest but respectable size, the generous pile of onions proved overly abundant and ultimately overpowering. I highly recommend asking for them fried to tame the flavour, and being one of the friendliest crews on the burger scene, Angelo's team is happy to oblige special requests.
Fries were cooked perfectly, fresh cut with a hint of sweetness you only get with fresh cut potatoes, but I wish they were a little seasoned.
