Eureka!

So, this is the same review I just posted for Back abbey, but wanted to be fair and post it here as well....

So, the debate continues..... burgers in Claremont  Back Abbey or Eureka?  Just went to both in the last couple of weeks, and IMO, Back Abbey wins by a nose (or should I say duck fat Fries)....  felt that both were excellent burgers with a bigger selection and more of a restaurant feel at Eureka, and a more casual, hipper menu, spot for Back Abbey....  Burgers were very good at both places, with the bun being a little better at Back Abbey.  Panko Onion rings were really good at Eureka, but sorry, the Duck Fat Fries at Back Abbey were so much better than the fries at Eureka, that if push came to shove, Back Abbey is slightly better in the overall rating... don't get me wrong, both places are really good and I would (and will) go back to both depending on my mood and ease of getting a table....  but now that I have had both, it's nice to have a couple of really good burger joints close to home.

I love the vibes, but the food is kinda expensive. Might as well go to Rounds Burgers which is literally down the street on Indian Hill across from Norms.

I have always loved the Back Abby. Their staff is great but Eureka's staff has become partially like my family. I go there during my lunch hour and get the watermelon salad. It is a healthy option. I usually sit on the patio and Christina serves my girls and I. Parking is easy because of the garage right down the street and their iced tea is refreshing. The mood of eureka is just happier than back abby. The staff seems to be enjoying their job. This will continue to be my local favorite.
