Intense veg cookery that even omnivores love. Unfussy, approachable, with killer fries & desserts.
Superiority Burger, helmed by ex-punk-rock drummer Brooks Headley, offers an intense vegetable cookery experience that appeals even to avowed non-vegetarians, earning it widespread acclaim.
This East Village spot, founded by ex-punk-rock drummer Brooks Headley, is celebrated for its "intense vegetable cookery." It appeals to both vegetarians and omnivores with its unfussy, approachable approach to making vegetables shine. The menu features creative dishes, standout desserts, and is known for its surprisingly delicious fries.
Superiority Burger is a vegetarian and vegan-friendly restaurant renowned for its creative and satisfying vegetable-focused dishes. While many rave about the unique sandwiches like the 'Yuba Verde' and 'Collard Greens,' and praise the quality of sides, desserts, and fries, some find the main burger dishes to be mediocre and the overall experience to be overpriced for the portion sizes.
"Highly recommended dishes include the 'TFT' sandwich, 'Yuba Verde' sandwich, 'Collard Greens' sandwich, the various desserts (especially gelato and sorbet), and the fries."
Customers are divided, with many praising the unique and delicious vegetarian options, especially the desserts and fries. However, a significant portion find the restaurant to be overpriced and have experienced a decline in value due to smaller portions and increased prices.
Important Note
Some customers feel the restaurant has become significantly overpriced with smaller portions compared to its earlier days. There's also a concern that the namesake burger may not be the strongest item on the menu.
