Map: Welcome to the Burgerhood
Are burgers the new cupcake? Los Angeles, I'm Yours posits that burgers are are burgeoning trend, and new burger-centric eateries keep popping up predominantly in one overall geographic area. "The area is totally accessible by Metro and what we are calling the Burger District, a little burgerhood in Hollywood," they explain.

At the heart of the Burgerhood is the Corridor, which is made up of non-fast food local spots like Umami, Fuku Burger, and Juicy Burger, with a "Periphery" made up of "more classic places that have either been in the area before the Corridor popped up or are a little bit removed from the area but also have a great burger," including chains like In-N-Out and gourmet burger spots like 25 Degrees.
Bonus: LAIY gives ordering tips for each spot on their map.
Here's our take on a few of burger places on the map:
- Fuku Burger
- 25 Degrees
- Stout
- Juicy Burger
