“I’ve been obsessed with burgers, easily for about 25 years now. Hamburger America is the name of the documentary film I made in 2004; I have since then written five books, I’ve had three TV shows, and now a restaurant.” Today Bon Appétit spends a day on the line with George Motz, burger scholar and owner of Hamburger America.

    George is one of the most genuinely passionate people out there. He deserves all the success he has gotten an is going to get
  • So THAT'S where George Motz disappeared to! I didn't know he'd opened his own burger place. I love that for him. Such a wholesome gentleman. 😁
  • @drewcigna8197
    He researched hamburgers in America for two decades before deciding to open a restaurant. That's incredible and I wish him and his team nothing but success!
  • @94seanster
    This 9 minute video, for some reason, felt like it was 3 minutes long in the best way
  • This is the most American thing I've ever seen and I mean that in the best way possible. This is beautiful.
  • @mendeldavis5755
    His energy is amazing. You can tell he is passionate about his food and cares about his employees.
  • @drewpearson6722
    I love George's enthusiasm! You can really tell this IS the restaurant he's always wanted to have. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to visit someday
  • @MrGetItIn
    George's onion burger is one of the best burgers I've ever had the pleasure of eating. Highly recommend to anyone in NYC
  • @Screwdriver346
    Grill top facing the clienteles is genius. It’s more personal and entertaining for the customer.
  • @soultaker840
    Just onion, pickle, and mustard is LITERALLY MY FAVORITE ALL TIME BURGER. They make it that by default?!?! 10/10
  • @henlolneh
    Mr Motz deserves everything great coming his way. The man's passion is palpable.

    George Motz I love you sir! Your restaurant is on the bucket list and it will stay there no matter how many times I go! You are an incredible human being sir 🙏🏼

    There’s food folks with personality, then there’s George with his PERSONALITY! Can’t not root for him just based on how passionate he is about his craft
  • With the amount of knowledge Mr. Motz has on this subject, he deserves a restaurant for sure! So happy.
  • George is the consummate burger ambassador, and we all love him for it. Nobody has made me go to the store and buy ingredients multiple times to try and duplicate what George does. Long live the burger master!
  • @Volvalex
    I'm so glad that George has finally been able to open a location where he can share his affinity and influence for burgers to the world. He looks so happy, and he deserved this, for being such a unique and influential gentleman. Congratulations George!
  • @JigilJigil
