NOTHING beats a good burger when you’re craving one. We asked our readers to tell us their pick for the best burgers in San Diego so we’ll know where to go when we’re in need of one…the mouth-watering list below is the result!
One takeaway from putting this list together: San Diego has some damn good burgers!
Yeah yeah…we know “(insert your favorite place that isn’t on this list here) actually has the best burger in town”, so go ahead and let us hear it. We want to try all of them!
The Balboa (#1)
The Balboa won first place by a good margin, so we are giving them the credit they deserve (the others are not specifically ranked as their votes were pretty close and this isn’t exactly a scientific study, now is it?!).
The Balboa had initially announced a permanent closure in the depths of the pandemic, but lucky for us, they reopened on April 15th! We’ll plan on eating enough burgers this year to ensure that they won’t have to worry about closing every again.
