Good morning!

Has anyone on MFP ever been to Five Napkin Burger? They have locations in Atlanta, Boston, and New York City. My friends and I are going there tomorrow but I have no idea what I should order, or if I should just skip out and go somewhere else while they eat.

Here's a link to their menu.

Thanks for your help!

    I've been. Best dang burger of my life. They even threw an egg on top for me. Honestly, its worth it to enjoy it and eat light the rest of the day. One burger won't make you fat, just like one salad won't make you thin.

    It looks like some of their small plates might be ok. I am not sure what you like to eat, but they have steamed Edamame and maybe a chopped salad...dressing on the side?? You can add chicken for protein....good luck!!!! And remember, you have to make this a lifestyle, not a diet. Enjoying one meal a week with your friends that may be more calories than you're used to is not the end of the world. Log it. Enjoy it. Maybe add in a little bit more exercise before or after if you're feeling guilty. Losing weight and enjoying life IS possible. Have a GREAT time with your friends!!!

    The one here is New York is GREAT! They even have gluten-free buns for those who must abstain from gluten. BEST veggie burger ever!!!!!

    I've been there. If you are in NYC I would say bareburger is a better choice, but 5 napkins is very delicious!

    I've been there many times (NYC). Best burger ever!! I get the Original without cheese (because I don't like it, not to save calories, lol) If I went all the time, maybe I would find a lower calorie option, but if this is your first time, splurge!! Have fun!

    I would go and enjoy whatever I dang well pleased. It is not like I would eat one of those every single day. Why not just enjoy the treat? I don't get it.
