About Superiority Burger

Superiority Burger started in 2015 as a tiny counter on East 9th Street and moved in 2023 to a full restaurant at 119 Avenue A, across from Tompkins Square Park. It describes itself as a proudly lacto-ovo vegetarian restaurant with a sizable number of vegan options. Its veggie burger gave the place its name, and there is a full bar. Hours change through the week, with evening-only service on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tables can be booked on Resy.
