Lunchbox Laboratory serves up top-rated burger

Ballard seems to have some pretty good eats. Smokin’ Petes was recently named one of the best bbq joints, now a burger shack is getting national attention.

Lunchbox Laboratory is on the list of “America’s Top-Rated Burgers” by epicurious.com. The food site asked critics to pick their “local hamburger heaven” and describe the sandwich in detail. Providence Cicero, Seattle Times restaurant critic wrote about the Burger of the Gods. “This ambitious sandwich combines sweet, balsamic-soaked onions and tangy Gorgonzola cream sauce with a freshly ground mix of grass-fed sirloin, rib eye, and prime rib—served on an organic kaiser bun,” Cicero writes. Mia emailed, “When I read that a Seattle restaurant had made the cut I was secretly hoping for Red mill, but it’s still nice that a Ballard commerce received such an illustrious mention!”
