This article really needs to be cleaned up, as it is maintains a heavy bias that lacks any credible citations and needs to be reworked in favor of a more NPOV. If anyone is up to the challenge, BE BOLD

I found a very reliable source to the claim of who invented the hamburger. Earl Steinbicker makes the endorsement in his 2002 book Daytrips New England: 50 One-Day Adventures, he writes that the great American hamburger was invented at Louis' Lunch. Tomticker5 (talk) 18:48, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I've also added links to web pages on the Library of Congress website that credits Louis' Lunch with introducing the steak sandwich and the hamburger to the people of the United States. Tomticker5 (talk) 12:32, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I've been going to Louis' Lunch for over 30 years, and no one has ever, ever had their burger taken away and money refunded after asking for ketchup or mustard. This is a silly and vicious rumor. Yes, they eschew all condiments other than cheese, tomato, and onion - but to insult a customer like that was/is not their policy. I changed the entry to reflect the Louis philosophy as explained to me by proprietor Kenneth Lassen, who served me many times. (I also witnessed Lassen on many occasions politely explain why they had no condiments to new customers not aware of their "no condiments" rule) Anyone who frequented Louis' Lunch knows "Maestro" Ken Lassen would never have been so rude to a customer.
