What I Ate - Local Pint's cheeseburgers have long held a revered status but this time, I ventured into uncharted territory with their smash burger, which is different from their standard. The result? Pure perfection. The patty offered a delightful blend of juicy tenderness and crispiness. The pretzel roll was not only very good but also surprisingly filling. Its robust flavor and substantial texture added an extra layer of satisfaction to each bite. The ham was the perfect size, flavorful, and the perfect complement to the burger. The grilled halloumi cheese was new to me. While the texture was interesting, I couldn't help but wonder if a softer cheese might have enhanced the overall experience. Nevertheless, it added a unique twist to the flavor profile.
A deviation from my usual tots led us to pair our burgers with Local Pint's waffle fries. The decision paid off – the fries boasted the ideal level of crispiness, making them the perfect companion to the main event.
As always and a must at Local Pint was pairing the burger with a couple great beers. I went with two Commonwealth IPAs from Community Brewery, which is a local located just outside of downtown Dallas. The hoppy goodness of these beers seamlessly complemented the rich flavors of the smash burger.
Pros - Local Pint consistently secures its spot as one of my favorite dining spots in DFW. The staff's hospitality is unmatched, the food consistently amazing, and the ever-changing beer list ensures that each visit is a new adventure into the world of craft brewing.
Cons - Can’t think of any except I can never decide on what to order, both food and drink. 🙂
Drink(s) - 2 Commonwealth IPAs from Community Brewery
