Description

Michael Schepers (the namesake behind Mick’s) knows his way around burgers like Pujols knows how to turn on an off-speed pitch. The go-to option is the Karma burger, the aforementioned basics spiked with what they call Karma sauce, some derivation of Thousand Islands dressing with a whisper of spice. It’s the happy medium between the fast-food glory of T.K. and the pricey beauts of far too many restaurants to remember. But Mick riffs from this structure to even better results like he’s affected with attention-deficit disorder. He always constructs a Burger of the Week, on which he’ll experiment with the fearlessness of someone BASE jumping off Half Dome.

  • 2012 | Best Burger

    Michael Schepers opened a juice bar in a faceless Irvine corporate building, then decided to start making burgers on a whim. Soon, crazy Yelp kids and foodies in this burger-starved county began making pilgrimages to his tiny Mick's Karma Bar, to the point that Schepers was making hundreds of burgers per day. While his most famous is the Karma Burger, all about the fresh-ground chuck and perfect working of sweet and tartness, better are his weekly specials--the best of which is the... More »
