In Vancouver BC which restaurant(s) have the best burgers?

My own favorite is Fet's on Commercial Drive. Excellent meat, a wide range, and good presentation.

Pemberton Meadows Natural Beef:

"Our cattle are raised as nature intended; living outdoors, in a herd, on pasture. In the winter, when snow covers the ground, they stay in a large treed area where they can take shelter from harsh weather. The cattle are free to spread out under the trees at night. We have found that the cattle stay cleaner and drier than they would if confined to a barn or feedlot, where bacteria and pathogens might flourish. Our experience has been that animals that are not confined to a barn or feedlot remain healthy, and do not require drugs. If one of our animals were to get sick and require treatment by antibiotics, that animal would be removed from the herd, and sold into the conventional market.
There is no one definition of natural, nor is there one certification agency to determine what can be called natural. For Pemberton Meadows Natural Beef, we can tell you what it is not. Pemberton Meadows Natural Beef does not use any hormones or steroids or antibiotics. Pemberton Meadows does not use any feeds that incorporate rendered ingredients or byproducts. All our winter feeds are grown on our farms, or on that of a nearby neighbour. We feed home grown hay, and crushed oats and barley, without additives of any kind."

Their natural beef are available in the following restaurants:

Raincity Grill
Chill Winston
The Cascade Room
Wild Rice
Bishop’s Fine Dining
Copper Cup (Squamish)
Araxi
Westin Resort and Spa
Alibi Room

A restaurant that serves "Pasture to Plate" burgers
Ethical Kitchen
1600 McKay Rd., North Vancouver (across from Indigo Books). 604-988-6280. wwww.ethicalkitchen.com.
"So what a surprise – I had the most delicious, juicy burger here. The beef stew was crammed with very good beef. I could have had an equally meaty, juicy sausage on a bun."
"The burger ($13) came on a fresh-made sourdough bun (I saw the next batch proofing in bowls). Inside the bun, yummy condiments; it came with a crisp red and green coleslaw. A grilled fruit and Vancouver Island brie sandwich would have been excellent but for the bun, which in this case, was too tough for the delicate filling, smooshing the filling into a mess."

I'm not sure if Controversial Kitchen serves burgers, but they serve "Pasture to Plate" beef.
http://www.straight.com/article-282138/vancouver/drive-eatery-puts-its-ethics-table
"Their parents still own the certified-biodynamic ranch, which produces certified-organic, grass-fed and -finished meat under the Pasture to Plate label."

I like this restaurant - but being a man I would! Quite a slick, classy feel as you walk in (modern decor with a 70's feel). Service is exceptional - worth visiting just for the waitresses. Food…

This place has good burgers and ambiance, but their prices are a bit expensive for what you get. They had fresh brews on top though, so extra points awarded there! If you're walking through Stanley
