I came back after 4 years. I had the Mozzarella Bacon Burger with salsa and cheddar cheese. The smoky aroma of the bacon was nice, the patty was meaty, and overall it was delicious. The bun was fluffy and the burger was well-made and tasty. It was delicious, thank you for the meal!

CRUZ BURGERS & CRAFT BEERS Yotsuya @cruzburgers #TabelogTop100Burgers 7th place. I want to visit about 3 more places this month. They have a great selection of craft beers, perfect for craft beer lovers. The BACON & CHEESE burger is a classic combination! The buns have a crispy texture that I love. The potatoes are also fried in a unique way, which gives them a different taste. Love it! #TabelogTop100 #BurgerEnthusiast #WantToConnectWithBurgerLovers #YotsuyaGourmet #WantToConnectWithFoodies

Whenever I go to Yotsuya, I always stop by. I ordered the pulled pork cheese fries and a hamburger. You can make the hamburger without the fries for a discount of 100 yen, so I opted for no fries. As always, the food was delicious! The service was quick and fantastic!

The Jack Cheese looked delicious, so I ordered the Big Jack Cheese Burger at CRUZ in Yotsuya, which is a candidate for the Burger Grand Prix. It was loaded with Monterey Jack and Colby Jack cheeses, totaling 100g, giving it a strong and firm texture with the cheese as the main attraction. The coleslaw had a strong acidity, which I didn't particularly like. I personally enjoyed the chunky potato fries.

Lunch on 09/06 (Wednesday) at CRUZ BURGERS & CRAFT BEERS. I had the Teriyaki for 1,450 yen, Chili Beans set for 320 yen, and Coke Zero for 170 yen. There was a 50 yen discount. Everything was incredibly delicious! The quality was so good that I definitely want to come back again. Suica.

Visit on 9/3/2023 (Sun) at 10:47. There was already one person waiting in line, so I waited as the second in line for the store to open. At 10:56, they opened a little early. There was another group in line by the time they opened, but it didn't seem too crowded. I ordered the BACON & CHEESE burger (1,780 yen) and the No Clouds, No Problem burger (850 yen). At 11:08, the food arrived. The patty was juicy and flavorful, almost like eating a steak. The bacon seemed homemade and had a strong, delicious flavor. There were plenty of smaller bacon slices, so you don't run out of bacon before finishing the burger. The thin buns allowed the meat's flavor to stand out even more. The variety of alcoholic beverages, including beer, is also a highlight of this restaurant. I would definitely like to visit again. The place filled up quickly while I was eating, so it might be a good idea to arrive a little before opening.

On Sunday evening around 6 pm, there were 3 groups of customers when I arrived at the burger restaurant. More groups came in later. It wasn't completely full, but it was around 60-70% occupied, even at night. It seems like burger joints are popular in the evenings. I debated between a simple cheeseburger or a more unique limited edition option, but ended up choosing a burger with bulgogi pork. The buns were soft but the inside was crispy, giving a nice fluffy-crunchy texture. The bulgogi pork, patty, onion, tomato, lettuce, salsa, and cheese were all piled high. The height made it hard to take a bite, so I tried the salsa and bulgogi pork first with a fork. The refreshing salsa and sweet-savory bulgogi pork tasted great together. The patty was firm and tightly packed, which I didn't particularly enjoy. The waffle potato fries were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The coleslaw with olives added a nice touch. While the flavor balance was good, I personally didn't find the patty juicy as many others have mentioned in their reviews. Maybe it was overcooked? I might give it another try if the timing is right, but then again, maybe not.

It is about a 5-minute walk from Yotsuya Station. I visited around 5 p.m. on a weekday. I used it for an ape as there is a craft beer TAP. There were many West Coast Brewing beers that I like, and I tried three IPAs. The sandwiches were also delicious. Pickled pulled pork sandwich, Full Hop Alchemist, Harmonic Dream, Nature Boy.

I visited this restaurant that I had been curious about for a while. It was around 18:00, and there were only 3 other groups besides me, which was just the right amount. There were quite a few burger options on the menu, so I asked the staff, "Which one is popular?" The staff replied, "It's in the order of the menu." I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger and a cola. This place is known for its beer, so beer lovers might love it. When the burger arrived, I was impressed by its thickness. 1. The smoky aroma of the bacon spreads out nicely. Personally, I'm not a fan of smoke flavors, but this was delicious. 2. The buns were toasted nicely. 3. The waffle fries were just right. 4. The soft drink prices were a bit high. Overall, it was a great meal. I would definitely visit again.

- Bacon Cheeseburger: The 3.5oz patty has a quite firm texture with slightly chunky bacon that has a strong salty flavor. It is indeed salty, but if it's not salty enough, it might feel lacking in punch, so I found the version with bacon more delicious. The burger is quite juicy, so be careful when eating it. The side of potatoes is like a lattice-shaped snack.

The hamburger here may also follow the rule that the harder it is to eat, the tastier it is. Adding avocado was a great choice. The fries were not too salty and delicious.

■Bacon Cheese & Fried Egg ¥1,950 ■Avocado Cheese ¥1,780 ■Kruz Highball ¥550 ----------------------------------------------------------------------Hamburger BM in Yotsuya. Let's start with the patty. It's a proper meaty one. The meat is packed tightly, providing a good chewiness and juiciness. It's well-browned, giving it a nice flavor. The bacon is thick and the fatty part is sweet and tasty. Boosted by the cheese's umami, and made light with the fried egg, it's a perfectly balanced burger. The buns are crispy and fluffy, and delicious. The Kruz Highball with its lemony acidity paired excellently with the burger. A high-quality burger. Yotsuya really does have a lot of great restaurants. Thank you for the meal.

I visited the restaurant on a holiday night. Today, I came to eat a hamburger. The Bacon Cheeseburger (1,790 yen) was ready in about 10 minutes. The buns were crispy and toasted. The homemade bacon had a smoky flavor and a strong salty taste. The patty was made of coarsely ground beef, giving it a meaty texture. It also had plenty of lettuce, tomato slices, and finely chopped onions. The overall taste balance was very good, giving a feeling of eating a hearty hamburger. The Lemonade (550 yen) was a little sweet with a mild sourness, made with honey and lemon slices. It was nice to crush the lemon slices to increase the sourness. I wish I had come to eat the hamburger earlier. It was a delicious meal. Thank you.

In early August 2023, I visited a restaurant near Yotsuya Station. In the past, I used to enjoy dishes like the "Bara Chirashi" at Sushi Takumi or the high-quality seasonal fried foods, beef butter, pork ginger, and salmon butter at Katsuretsu Yotsuya Takeda. However, due to a temporary return from overseas assignment, I had a lot of things to do such as health check-ups, hospital visits, and greetings to work-related individuals, leaving me with no time to make reservations or wait in long lines for food. Therefore, I chose a popular restaurant that was just a little over 300m walk from Yotsuya Station for a meal with a friend. It was my first visit. The weather was rainy on and off, which turned out to be perfect for a casual visit to a popular restaurant as there were fewer customers. The small shop was located a couple of streets inward from the main Shinjuku street. The staff consisted of 3-4 members, divided into roles such as cashier, server, and chef. The hamburger, priced around 1800 yen, was made with care and attention to detail. The patty had a solid flavor, and the bacon was rich. It felt like a hamburger you would find in a slightly upscale hotel in America. While it may not reach the level of the top-notch hamburger served at Munch's Burger Shack in Shibakoen, where the late Prime Minister Abe treated former President Trump, it was undeniably delicious. I hope the restaurant will continue to develop its unique characteristics. Most importantly, it is valuable to have a place like this serving delicious burgers in the convenient location of Yotsuya, close to Shinjuku. Keep up the good work!

When you mention Fire House, it is a well-known old-fashioned burger shop in Hongo-Sanchome! Despite being established in 1996, it is considered a long-standing establishment in the world of gourmet burgers. The owner of CRUZ BURGERS & CRAFT BEERS, who trained at Fire House for 6 years, runs this shop. I had been looking forward to visiting this place, which is ranked quite high among the top 100 burger shops, but due to my unfamiliarity with Yotsuya Station, I kept postponing it. Finally, I visited on a Saturday at 2 pm and was able to be seated quickly. The burgers are available throughout the day, so even at highly-rated places, you can get in without waiting in line, which is a great advantage. There are special burgers with chili marks, but I was intimidated by them, so I opted for the classic Bacon Cheeseburger for 1780 yen with a cola. It may look ordinary, but the patty, grilled on a lava stone and finished with a hand chop, has a steak-like meatiness to it! While Fire House tends to balance the meat with other elements, this burger has a rough and wild side, which I think is good! The meat takes the lead and brings out the umami flavor, which is essential for a satisfying burger. The buns are made of 100% natural yeast, fluffy and complementing the meat perfectly. The cheese is rich and tasty too! On the other hand, the lattice-cut fried potatoes may look fancy, but I personally prefer the regular ones. They are delicious, but having tried various burgers, I find it hard to rate this one in the 4-point range. In the end, I realize that I may have grown tired of meaty patties and 100% yeast buns. The world of burgers is all about how you can bring out originality as you explore different options. If someone were to say that choosing the classic option was wrong, then so be it, but I personally prefer folk burgers&beers, another Fire House alum, for its uniqueness.

Located about a 5-minute walk from Yotsuya Station, this popular burger joint is one of the best I've tried, excluding chains. The fries served as a side are delicious, building up anticipation for the burger. When you take a bite, the juiciness of the meat overflows, and the sauce adds to the flavor. The craft beer selection is also fantastic, offering a good balance between modern beers like WCB and classics from the Morioka Bear Beer Brewery. While it may be a bit pricier than other places, the delicious taste makes it worth it. Thank you for the meal!

I recently got into exploring high-end burgers and visited this restaurant. Located a 5-minute walk from the station in an office district, the small, clean interior greeted me with friendly staff. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and a cola. Despite looking small, the burger was actually quite substantial and required a big bite to eat. The meat was juicy, the bacon was crispy but not too hard, and it paired well with the vegetables.

Bacon cheeseburger with avocado, egg topping, and cola came to a total of 2730 yen. It was quite expensive due to high prices, but the potato that came with it was delicious. The hamburger was very fresh, with a good meaty texture, and I was very satisfied. The atmosphere and customer service at the restaurant were also good.

I regularly go to CRUZ for their craft beer selection, which includes both tap and bottled options. The beers they announce on social media always make me want to go and try them out. The beers pair really well with their burgers. I plan on trying all of their original limited menu items. This time, I tried the PARA MEXICO burger, which is inspired by nachos. It includes chili beans, salsa fresca, avocado, cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, jalapeno, and corn tortilla. Despite the variety of ingredients, the patty stands out with its delicious flavor. The onion rings are also great, with the batter made using beer. I went specifically for the Cosmic Whale beer from Uchu Brewing, which has a tropical and fruity taste. The patty's flavor always impresses me, and I enjoy the variety of beers available at CRUZ. It's a highly recommended restaurant. Thank you for the delicious meal!

I visited this popular burger joint in Yotsuya for a casual dinner on a weekday night without having to wait. The restaurant had about 20 seats. I ordered the "Bacon, Cheese & Fried Egg" burger and a "Cruz Highball". The burger was juicy with delicious sauce, and the fried egg was big and tasty! I also liked how the burger had a metal skewer through it, making it easy to eat without falling apart. The Cruz Highball, like a lemonade, was refreshing and enjoyable. Overall, both the burger and drink were satisfying, and I thought this was a great restaurant. Thank you for the meal!

Looking for a hamburger and craft beer, I went to Yotsuya Station after a long time. I ordered the "Bacon Cheese" burger and the "West Coast Brewing / Ultima QDH Hazy Triple IPA" beer. The burger came with waffle fries, which I really like. The patty was hand-chopped and grilled on a lava stone, making it very juicy and meaty. The bacon was thick and had a nice smoky flavor, highly recommended. There were many craft beer options, so I chose the anniversary beer. It had a high alcohol content of 9%, but the fruity juiciness made it delicious. This place is recommended for enjoying the perfect combination of hamburgers and beer.
