Sorry the picture's a little wonky. I took it while driving.My Bro' Jeff wanted a burger. Not just any burger. But a gourmet burger. He was tired of McD's and BK. He wanted some quality. At first we talked about going to Jack's Prime Burgers, but didn't make it. I had seen a new burger joint in Belmont, so I said, "What about Godfather's?" He said, "Okay."
It was on an odd corner on the El Camino. It looked crooked. And dark. But we were curious, and more importantly, hungry, so Rick and I headed out there to pick up our food.
A couple of things that struck me when we entered is 1) how dark and small the place is and 2) it's a lounge. It had dark drapes, dark walls, dark wood and a big ol' bar. And loud music. Think of it as a lounge that serves burgers.Yet, people were coming in with little kids. I don't think Emi-chan would have done okay there. She would have freaked out. We got our burgers and went back to Jeff's place. Jeff got a Godfather's Cheeseburger:
Rick and I split a Crispy BLT Wedge Salad and a Director's Cut Mushroom Burger:
The salad confused Rick. "They gave us 1/4 of a head of lettuce...did they forget to cut it up and put stuff on it? Is it a lazy person's salad?" I laughed at him, and cut up the lettuce and made a tossed salad. The burgers were very good. Well cooked and flavored. I really liked my burger. Jeff devoured his and the onion rings. BUT I didn't like the fries. Neither did Rick. We couldn't figure out why until much later. They tasted old and microwaved. Like they were cooked ahead of time and then warmed up right before we picked up the burgers. It was too bad because the burgers were great. P.S. Sorry the font is all weird. I was playing around with different fonts, and when I wanted to go back to the original, it wouldn't completely go back.
