Yes, This Burger is Juicy... and Vegetarian
()
We could not be more impressed with all the restaurants going out of their way to create a veggie burger from scratch or at least deck the hell out of store-bought ones. From Stanley's in Sherman Oaks to Tiny's K.O. bar in Hollywood, LA is embracing the veggie burger.
But who does it best? On that list is Lucky Devils at 6613 Hollywood Blvd., near Whitley:
A delicious blend of 26 ingredients, sautéed portobello mushrooms, basmati rice, & grated red beets, topped with Vermont cheddar, caramelized onions, fresh avocado, and our special dressing on a toasted artisan brioche bun.

Yeah, it's $13.50, but very well worth it.
Other items of interest (non-veggie included) are the toasted pecan shake, kobe bacon bleu burger, kobe chili cheese fries, organic rosemary turkey burger, classic grilled cheese (white Vermont cheddar and swiss gruyère -- same cheese used in their mac & cheese) and spicy tomato soup.
Oh yeah, over 30 choices of beer (mostly microbrews), 14 of those on tap.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
