Burger Spotlight: ANM.L.- STYLE from M.L.ROSE
If you’re visiting M.L. Rose and wondering what to order, stop looking. The ANM.L.-Style is literally their signature burger, and there’s a reason they put it front and center on the menu.
What Makes It Special
This isn’t some fancy, overthought creation with fifteen ingredients you can’t pronounce. The ANM.L.-Style keeps it simple but nails every component:
- Two smashed patties – Because one isn’t enough, and smashed burgers just hit different
- American cheese – Classic choice that melts perfectly
- Bacon fat caramelized onions – This is where things get interesting. Not regular onions, bacon fat onions
- Shredded iceberg – Crispy, fresh lettuce that adds the right crunch
- Tomato – Thick, juicy slices
- Pickles – That tangy bite you need
- Awesome sauce – Their house sauce that ties everything together
The Real Star: Those Onions
Let’s talk about those bacon-fat caramelized onions for a second. Most places throw some sad, limp onions on a burger and call it a day. M.L.Rose cooks theirs in bacon fat until they’re golden and sweet. It’s one of those details that separates a good burger from one you actually remember.
The Build
The two smashed patties give you that crispy edge and juicy center combo that makes smash burgers so addictive. The American cheese isn’t trying to be fancy—it’s just doing its job of being melty and delicious. Everything comes together on a locally baked bun that actually holds up to all the goods without falling apart in your hands.
What You’re Getting
At $14.99, it’s priced right in line with other craft burger spots. You get the burger plus their waffle fries, which are solid. The portion size is generous without being ridiculous—you’ll be satisfied but not rolling out the door.
