Best Burgers in PDX

My best burger spots (because I know everyone is going to have an opinion.)

Castagna Cafe: Fine/casual dining - Suggested to me by a friend and, as promised, delivers a great burger. Tasty, not too large or heavy, and plenty of friendly fries to accompany every scrumptious bite. I also appreciate that every burger is usually made medium rare, cook's choice. This says the chef takes pride in a great dish. Comes with homemade pickles and classic veggies, except the tomato, which you won't miss. $11

Pause: Casual dining - Used to be the ultimate favorite burger, but since this restaurant has become so popular (because of it's decent prices and location), the spotty service and quality has squashed it's potential to remain at the top. Still a good burger, however, the patty can be a little too thick and cooks are inconsistent. Medium rare can come out anything from well done to rare.$8

Sagittarius: Bar/Casual - Great dependable burger. This is a really inexpensive steal-of-a-deal. The burger is always good, although there's nothing specifically memorable, other than the quirky fixin's they have, which almost all include bacon and delicious large portion of fries. (Which should likely be one of the top on my list for best fries in Portland.) Totally worth it. $6
