The City's got plenty of places for patties but who s got the very best burger in the five boroughs? We've taken the time to Just Ask The Locals. Restaurateur Danny Meyer puts Blue Smoke, DB Bistro Moderne, J.G. Melon and Union Square Cafe at the top of his list, while chef and restaurateur Marcus Samuelsson opts for Shake Shack and Pop Burger.

And earlier this week, we asked you about your favorite place to grab a burger. We got lots of great responses, but the top 10 spots according to Gothamist readers are:

     1 (tie): Paul's Place...Da Burger Joint
               Corner Bistro
               Peter Luger Steakhouse
     4 (tie): Shake Shack
               Burger Joint at Le Parker Meridien
               67 Burger
               5 Guys Burgers and Fries
               JG Melon
     9 (tie): BLT Burger
               PJ Clarke's
