Corner Bistro - zagat rated..psst

The number one rated burger joint in NYC supposedly has the(e) best burger in the world, like ever! Big, juicy, crunchy, and the fries...amazing.....Sounded too good to be true, and as luck would have it, it was. The food at the Corner Bistro was moderately good, and I'm talking about 2:00am food. Nothing good ever happens after 2:00am nor is the food ever decent, anywhere. Where's the most popular place to get food after 2:00am.....7 eleven! So I get there one afternoon around 1pm, and this burger joint is more like a dive bar. It was dark (mind you on a sunny day) inside, probably so you couldn't see what was on the floor. There were all sorts of elderly people drinking, and shooting the shit. I order a burger, fries and a McSorleys beer. The burger was crumbly, the fries were like potato chips, but the beer, was amazing! McSorelys beer definitely delivered. From the look of the food and bar, one would just think the food has to be good, not to mention everyone on this crazy island says it's good, but it's not. No way, I'm from the west and while I really hate to advertise and pretend like the best comes from there, the burgers are waaaaayy better over there. I mean miles!!!!! I'm disappointed, not just in the food, but the following of that place. The funny thing about that place is that right before I left this woman walks in with a label machine and asks for her usual, which is something in a small glass, probably a brandy and a then asks for a knife, then she chats it up with the bartender. Like that's her home. Mind you it was 1pm! This is the Starbucks for old people!
