DMK.
Anna and I both had a craving for a burger earlier this week, so we opted to try out the DMK Burger Bar in Lakeview. This modern and sleek burger joint is co-owned by MK’s Michael Kornick and Pompei’s David Morton. The menu features a variety of grass-fed beef, turkey, lamb and veggie burgers that made choosing a burger very difficult since everything sounded so good. Anna ended up ordering a beef burger that was topped with New York pastrami, French gruyere, sauerkraut, and Leroy’s remoulade, while I went with a beef burger that included chili-rubbed onion strings, Amish blue cheese, and spicy chipotle ketchup. We also shared two small orders of fries, one portion of sweet potato with lemon tobasco aioli and the other was smothered with Wisconsin cheddar cheese and scallions. Overall, the service and food was great. It’s also worth noting that every burger on the menu is $8, which is a reasonable price considering the quality of meat you’re getting. DMK also has a great selection of craft beers and wine available too.
