With its warm, homey atmosphere and romantic, flower-filled atrium, Heck's Cafe doesn't exactly scream burger joint. But this converted brick townhouse nestled in the heart of Cleveland is where locals and visitors have been coming for years to get their hands – yes, both of them – on one of the famed gourmet Heck Burgers. The half-pound of premium ground beef, grilled to order and served on a hand-knotted roll, is the base for a plethora of elaborate toppings, from mushrooms and peppers sautéed with garlic and white wine, to sour cream and crushed peppercorns. Otherwise, the American Traditional menu offers a nice variety of sandwiches, salads, steaks and seafood. Full bar. Serving lunch and dinner daily. Sun brunch 10:30 am–3 pm. Named Best Hamburger (non-chain) in the 2008 Cleveland magazine Silver Spoon Awards and voted Best Hamburger in the magazine's 2007 readers poll.
