John's Burger

The burgers here absolutely slap. Visiting lake Garda for a week on my European travel quest, I gave this burger spot a try to change up the pace from the fish from the area which honestly is hit or miss so do your research when it comes to that. The burgers were juicy, hot, and really had the right toppings to bring out the flavor. The appetizer sampler was simple, but again fresh and hot. The pepper poppers were actually pretty delicious. The vibe in the place is also pretty retro with videos of musicals like grease and footloose playing. Reminds me of places home in NYC, but better burgers. You could definitely taste the difference with the chianini burgers. Definitely a must have. Great atmosphere for family’s or just a bunch of friends hanging out.

It was gone 10pm and my friend and I were hungry and unable to find sustenance when appeared from the darkness an American diner; John's Burger. This sainted holy offering of a chance to satisfy our hunger was an emotional moment. We didn't need asking twice. Our waiter Philip greeted us with a warm amd welcoming attitude and kindly showed us to our table in the outdoor seating area where we had both the the pleasure of the refreshing lake garda air and the jumping atmosphere of this exuberant establishment. At the point where our food arrived we were beside ourselves with excitement. We devoured in a manner alluding to that of a labrador with a POMC mutation. The food was utterly delectable. We were most satisfied. And if you're thinking this experience couldn't have been any better, you would be wrong. For none other than Elvis Presley was rocking the mic all damn night (He also did some Tina Turner and Frank's Sinatra songs). We decided to bring our delightful endeavour to and end when Elvis had finally left the building after having already done so and returned several times previously to enthusiastic requests for more songs. His manager was kind enough to take a photo of us with the man himself which we will always cherish. Thankyou John's Burger you are for certain one of the finest places I have had the good fortune to visit.

We've eaten twice at this restaurant during our stay in Desenzano and funnily enough it were the best meals we had (though it's 'American' food). The hamburgers, wraps and salad were delicious. You can taste that all the ingredients are fresh and carefully chosen. There's a broad range of choise and everything is reasonably priced. Those serving the tables (which I presume are the owners) are very kind and serve you very fast. The atmosphere is very American themed, which makes for a great night out. A great restaurant which is certainly recommended whenever you're in the neighborhood. Take this over the tourist traps (high prices, bad food) along the boulevard.
