Den nyöppnade restaurangen G.A.T. (namngiven efter sin adress på Gustav Adolfs torg) i Stockholm kallar sig en New York-inspirerad restaurang och bar, och detta var väldigt tydligt när vi steg in i de vackert stilrena lokalerna. Tankarna fördes direkt till det stora äpplet och alla dess barer, bistros och tavernor. Vi beställde deras Cheese Burger – som dessutom var deras enda huvudrätt på barmenyn – bestående av hängmörat kött, ost, silverlök, pickles, dressing för 295 kronor. Till detta ingick pommes frites.

Burgaren serverades vackert på en rejäl porslinstallrik och hade en imponerande höjd tack vare den tjocka köttpucken. Det egenbakade, sesamtäckta brödet var härligt följsamt och hade rostats fint, vilket gav allt en välbehövlig stabilitet. Köttet var fint stekt till medium och imponerade på oss med sin rejäla köttsmak, som verkligen lyfte smakerna. Men trots den goda smaken så var köttet lite överarbetat, och vi hade önskat att det var saftigare och lite lösare i texturen. Utöver det så gillade vi den enkla approachen de hade tagit med ingredienserna, med krispig silverlök, syrliga pickles och dressing, men vi skulle gärna ha sett lite mer av allting. Picklesen skulle ha fungerat bättre med ännu högre syrlighet, och den enkla burgardressingen hade tjänat på att ha lite mer djup och smakkaraktär. Pommes fritesen med den tillhörande ranchdressingen var riktigt smarriga och ett perfekt tillbehör till både burgaren och vår drink.

G.A.T. serverar utan tvekan en av de bättre bistroburgarna vi har ätit i Sverige, och vi förstår precis vad de är ute efter. Vi tycker i stort sett att de har lyckats med det de vill uppnå, och det känns fantastiskt kul med fler svenska tjockpucksburgare. Detta är en burgare med tydliga rötter i New York, och på den premissen har de verkligen lyckats minska distansen mellan Stockholm och Manhattan.

In English

The newly opened G.A.T. restaurant (named after its address on Gustav Adolfs torg) in Stockholm calls itself a New York-inspired restaurant and bar, and this was very clear when we stepped into the beautifully stylish premises. We were immediately reminded of the Big Apple and all its bars, bistros and taverns. We ordered their Cheese Burger – which was also their only main course on the bar menu – consisting of dry-aged beef, cheese, white onions, pickles and burger sauce for 295 SEK (32.5 USD). French fries were included in the price.

Our burger arrived beautifully on a large porcelain plate and had an impressive height thanks to the thick patty. The house-baked, sesame-covered bun was deliciously soft and had been toasted nicely, giving it the necessary stability. The patty was nicely cooked to medium and impressed us with its rich beefiness, which really brought out its flavours. But even though it tasted great, the beef was a bit overworked and we would have liked it to be juicier with an airier texture. Apart from that, we liked the simple approach they had taken with the ingredients, with crunchy silver onions, crisp pickles and a creamy burger sauce. But we would have liked a bit more of everything. The pickles would have been better with even more acidity, and the simple burger sauce would have benefited from a bit more depth and some complexity. The fries with the accompanying ranch dressing were really delicious and a perfect accompaniment to both the burger and our drink.

G.A.T. definitely serve one of the better bistro burgers we have eaten in Sweden, and we can see exactly what they are aiming for. We think they have largely succeeded in achieving their goal, and it is great to see more Swedish thick-patty burgers. This is a burger with clear New York roots, and on that premise, they have really managed to reduce the distance between Stockholm and Manhattan.

🍔 Review № 1381

Black Bear Burger is one of the veterans of the modern burger wave in England, and we have tried their burgers several times since our first review in 2017. Over the years, Black Bear Burger has received more and more attention and hype, both domestically and internationally, and today they are one of the most well-known burger restaurants in all of England. They have locations at nearly 10 places around London, and we visited their restaurant inside the Market Halls Victoria food hall and ordered their Double Miso Bacon Burger – the same burger that won them the National Burger of the Year 2025 award. The burger contained double patties, double cheese, smoked bacon and their miso butter mayo, and it cost 15.8 GBP (21 USD).

The burger looked exactly as we remembered it, with pre-formed patties and a pale bun covered in a generous layer of sesame seeds. The bun was soft and fluffy, but just like on our previous visits, we felt that the crust-like amount of sesame seeds took over both in terms of flavour and texture. The meat was of high quality as always and had a nice and potent dry-aged character that they are known for. The meat could have been juicier though, as it felt a bit too compact this time. The bacon was super tasty and crispy, just the way we like it, and the onion also contributed a nice texture. Their miso butter mayo was very flavourful with its buttery, salty, and umami-rich taste, but together with the bacon and the beef, the overall flavour profile was a bit too salty. We would have liked to see some kind of freshness to break up the saltiness for a more complete experience.

We are very happy that a veteran like Black Bear Burger continues to deliver high-quality burgers year after year, and they are still a safe bet when you are craving a really good burger in London.
