Yesterday, The Menternet took it to the streets and asked people to give us their take on the Baconator (now available at all participating Wendy’s restaurants). The response was overwhelming and we thank you all from the bottom of our knutsacks for taking the time to speak your mind on this one. Please note: the views expressed below are of the anonymous heroes who answered the call and are not representative of the views of The Menternet (well, some of them are… the ones with balls). Special thanks to Joe, Freddy, T-Bone, Cindy, Anthony, Boris, Jim-nice, Chuck, Kendall, Grodon, Bryce, Howie, Zach, Sully, Derrick, and the ‘86 Mets.

At this diamond in the rough in the notoriously boring and upitty Murray Hill district, you’ll find hotel bar ambiance and an upscale, anytown USA decor that is both welcoming and classy. The menu is outstanding with a wide variety of burger combinations and a steak option for the financial set (there’s even a tuna option for the “other” set). The burger that I had - the M&M Burger - is an instant classic: cheddar, apple bacon, and delicious onions. I went medium rare and it was cooked to a beefy perfection. The tasting basket of fries (3 kinds - straight up awesome, sweet potato, and waffle cuts) made Belgian frites look like bleached dookie and the onion rings were among the best I have ever had. Be sure to taste the frickles (I won’t even tell you what they are because they are just that crazy) and if you are visiting in the summer, go nuts and eat on the roof. Please do yourself a favor and grab one of these burgers before it grabs you (then holds you down while one of his burger buddies _____ you in the ___).
