¢-$, American, Santa Monica
Fodor's Review:
Angelenos still adore the venerable Apple Pan, but they've also embraced its upscale, contemporary burger-joint counterpart. Here -- by checking off your preferences on a sushi bar-style order sheet -- you can select beef, turkey, or veggie patties, then specify your preferred cheeses, toppings, one of 17 different sauces (anything from honey-mustard to peanut), and bun (or, for carb counters, a "burger-in-a-bowl"). Even with the slick surroundings and wild combinations, the Counter is a nostalgic reminder of L.A.'s ongoing love affair with the burger.
