THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Todd Jurich's 21st Century Burger Bar Restaurant Review:

Liquid nitrogen is injected into milkshakes. Foie gras tops burgers. It’s more knock-your-socks-off than sock-hop malt shop. It’s Todd Jurich’s 21st Century Burger Bar, a nod to modernist cuisine and every chef’s dream of launching a casual spot. Jurich, who also has an eponymous, upscale downtown Norfolk bistro, is obviously having loads of fun. He’s assembled a talented crew “going against the grain” as he calls it, using only grass-fed beef and grinding it fresh daily. Burgers range from a classic cheeseburger to Apocalypse Now, featuring not only foie gras, but also Snake River Wagyu, crispy pork belly, smoked bacon marmalade, sour cherry jam, and duck fat fries. Ingredients are sourced locally and buns are baked in-house. Beyond the jaw-dropping soda shop riffs, the menu offers more recognizable options like oyster stew, meatball sliders and lobster rolls. And there’s a deck on Rudee Inlet with waterfront views at the beach that will help you get your bearings in case the fried, beer-battered bacon throws you for a loop.
