Superiority Burger is a well-known all-vegetarian burger restaurant in Manhattan's East Village, with hundreds of Yelp reviews and photos reflecting a loyal following. It originally operated out of a smaller takeout counter (now listed as closed on Yelp) before moving into a larger sit-down space at 119 Avenue A that includes a bar.
Reviewers note a wait can build during prime dinner hours, and the restaurant's bar lets guests grab a drink while they wait rather than lining up outside. Arriving right around opening — about 5pm on weeknights or 11am-12pm on weekends — is commonly mentioned as the best way to avoid a wait.
