The Lower Eastside of Manhattan is the home of some of my favorite food spots. Let’s add LES Kitchen to that list. Nestled on Essex St this neighborhood burger spot does not disappoint with their menu. If I had to put their food in a category, comfort would be the most fitting. I love a good burger but especially when it has a different touch of something special that the restaurant adds as their little signature. The house sauce is that special something at LES Kitchen along with the burger and topping combos they offer. I went with the Truffle Shuffle which had the grilled portobello, caramelized onions, provolone cheese and their house sauce. Cooked medium and tasted amazing! My husband went with the Mighty Bacon which kind of gives you the American classic cheeseburger feel since it has the applewood smoked bacon, cheese and their special sauce. You can never go wrong with a true burger classic. We also tried the Kitchen Sink fries. Okay let’s just say the kitchen sink name may be an understatement. These fries came with cheese, roast pork, ribeye, peppers, bacon, fried egg, and caramelized onions. I think this was the best part of our meal! I am so glad I could make it here. It’s a nice little counter serve restaurant that’s serving some of the best comfort food in town. Please give them a try whenever you’re in the LES. Tell them I sent you 😊
