“Los Angeles is one of the best burger cities in the world,” says film producer Jamie Patricof, whose film Exhibiting Forgiveness was at Sundance and whose Madu docu is on Disney+ in March.

Patricof — who also publishes the popular food newsletter Jamie’s List (jamieslist.com) — shares his top 10 L.A. burger picks.

Smash burgers

“Burgers Never Say Die, Goldburger and Burger She Wrote make three of the best smash burgers you’ll find anywhere in the world,” says Patricof (who’s also producing the upcoming Derek Cianfrance film Roofman, starring Channing Tatum).

“Moo’s Craft Barbecue has a smoked beef brisket burger that is truly one of a kind.”

Moo’s Craft Barbecue: 2118 N. Broadway, Downtown L.A.

Traditional Burgers

Patricof is also partial to the offerings at HiHo Cheeseburger, which serves a classic burger made from grass-fed and grass-finished Wagyu, noting that the burger spot is “from the people who brought you Sugarfish, KazuNori and Uovo.”
