Changes on Fifth: Mediterra Now Corner Burger
Hepcat and I were walking up Fifth Avenue and noticed that Mediterra Restaurant on Sixth Street has a new sign: Corner Burger, Park Slope Brooklyn.
I did a real double take. Huh. What happened to Mediterra. Never got a chance to try that place.
First it was the Indain food side of The Park Slope Chip Shop, then it was a Turkish place, then Mediterra, now this. It's a troubled restaurant spot for sure. Some are calling it cursed.
Has anyone had a burger at the Corner Burger?

Yeah, gotta say the Lara post sounds like a shill too. If she's really a burger lover, this could not possibly be the best burger she's had. The burger is akin to a mediocre diner burger. not at all on par with the city's best burgers--and not cheap either. a burger with a couple toppings and a side of fries will set you back well over $10. Nearby five guys is a much better choice.

I definitely don't think Lara and I ate at the same place. Asked for mine medium-rare; it came out closer to well-done. Dry as a bone. Too much of a too-dry bun. Great sides, though. If they can get the burger quality up to that of the onion rings, they'll be on to something. Here's hoping they do.

Haven't tried it yet, but the post above certainly sounds like a shill...

You are right, it has changed a few times and I think the curse has now been lifted. On Saturday night I was out with my friends walking around to find somewhere to grab a bite and decided to give Corner Burger a try. I have to tell you, this place has the best burger I have ever had. Burgers are always my preferred meal and where there is a burger, there I am there eating it. We were all skeptical at first, but it was prepared perfectly and the meat is delicious. All of my friends were very pleased with the food and service. Have to say that the burgers are out of this world and they don't cheap out on the meat either. You have to check this place out! You won't be disappointed.
