Kilroys   

Theres nothing fancy about Kilroy's, and those who suggest they keep the lighting dim to hide the patches in the vinyl booths might be on to something. But all thoughts of decor and ambiance vanish the moment the hamburgers arrive. Yes, Kilroy's offers other basic American fare, but anyone who knows what put the place on the map doesn't even bother to look at the menu. It's all burgers, all the time, and one is enough to fill the heartiest of appetites for the rest of the day. The recipe for a great hamburger is hardly a closely guarded secret -- use fresh ground chuck, grind it up, and add a little seasoning (Kilroy's uses a dash of barbecue sauce). You'd think more places would have figured it out by now. But Kilroy's enormous half-pound burgers are grilled to order and come with a variety of toppings, from the traditional to the unique. The three-cheese mushroom burger is a popular choice. And if your sandwich is undercooked or overcooked, they'll make you another one, no questions asked. How many burger joints offer that kind of guarantee?
