Prime One Seven Burger Bar — Restaurant in Milan

That was my first time there, and the reason was that had good reviews and I was in the mood for a nice juicy burger, when we got there I asked the guy that was standing in front of the place if we could sit outside and he didn’t look too enthusiastic to do so, ok I wasn’t wearing Armani suit but I was in track pants and a sweater and puma running shoes, we asked for 2 burgers mine doubled with cheese and mushrooms and asked if the burger came with French fry’s and he said yes I also asked if it came with lettuce and tomato and he said no, I asked him if he could put a slice of tomato and he said will see he asked me how I like my burger cooked and I said medium, half hr later he brought the plate with potato chips no French fry’s and the first bite into the burger the meat was still bloody inside , burned outside and raw inside, I tried to get his attention to come but he kept looking everywhere’s else except out table, Not that the place was busy there were only 3 people dining ………I’m not sure how this place got a 4 star, I have lived across the world like Canada and United States for 40 years and I have eating a lot of burgers in my life and this one was the worse One ….I would not recommend it…. Maybe I should have gone to Mc Donald instead …. Btw he never put that slice of tomato as I asked for… ……………………………………………………………………………………… Response to your reply: thank you for answering so soon, mine biggest complain was that… first of all the burger was not cooked was very raw with blood dripping even tho I asked for medium not rare…. Second I asked if it came with French Fryes and the server said yes that was a lie because it came with potato chips( if I wanted to eat potato chips I would have stayed home) he should have specified but he was too busy looking around checking the people that walked by , he never came and asked how was the meal and if we needed something else, very poor poor service for 43 euros for 2 burgers… If you call flipping a burger ((Cucina Italiana) you are sadly mistaken, and go back you came from you have no idea how to flip a burger my 16 years old daughter can make better burgers…and as far as burgers you can’t even compete with American or Canadian as they have it down to perfection… and lastly you don’t know what I was going to do with that slice of tomato if he would have brought it…. Have a very nice...

The burgers are passable but what really lets the whole thing down is that they are served with crisps/chips. We were told we could changed the crisps for salad but not French fries which have to be ordered and paid for separately. What kind of burger place serves burgers without French fries? I’ve never heard of it. Burgers should come with French fries or cooked potato chips not a packet of crisps.

In addition we were annoyed at the service. When we came in, the place was empty. We were offered a rather cramped table for four in the corner. We asked for one of the better tables but were rather snootily told that they were all reserved.

Just after us another party of four came in and offered a similarly cramped table. They complained (in Italian) and were given the table we had asked for. The other tables that were supposedly reserved remained empty for the entire period we were there (could possibly have been no shows but I doubt it, given that the other supposedly reserved table was given away).

Bel locale specializzato in hamburger e situato alla fine di corso Garibaldi, praticamente in piazza Venticinque Aprile. Notevole la scelta di hamburger particolari, da consumarsi "al piatto" (cioè serviti senza la tradizionale pagnottella che li contiene) o in versione convenzionale. Ottima la carne utilizzata e le patatine di contorno. Da provare il piatto "patatine Prime", che consiste in una padellata di patatine a taglio stick mischiate con salsiccia, provola e formaggio fuso... Quanto ai dessert... Non aspettatevi ti trovarne la descrizione sul menù... A fine cena il personale passa al tavolo con un vassoio sul quale fa splendida mostra di sé un esemplare di ciascuno dei dessert proposti, tutti di produzione propria. Ed a questo punto sfido chiunque a non farsi assalire da amletici dubbi...Anche se, alla fine, personalmente finisco per ricadere sul "Tiramisù Pan di Stelle", per la cui preparazione viene utilizzata, fra i consueti ingredienti, una eccellente ricotta.. Per concludere, locale con cucina a vista accogliente ed ordinato, personale efficiente e cortese, ottimamente coordinato dall'effervescente Terry, coadiuvata dalla sorellina Anna, instancabili e...
