I had heard of the legendary Shooting Star and their burgers for years. Then we had a meeting nearby, so we decided to try the legend ourselves. What a disappointment! The place is a dive, and the famous burgers were a waste. What makes it unique is a knockwurst on the burger, which is an interesting concept. But the way it actually ended up was far from stellar - a very mediocre lunch. I'll never go back. Why this place is in the City Search Top Ten, I'll never know.
Cons: Dirty, smoke-filled environment. Below average food. No service. The staff could have cared less that we were even there.
