The Green Goddess Herb Sauce Burger brings San Francisco's iconic creamy herb dressing to the burger world with spectacular results. This vibrant emerald sauce, loaded with fresh tarragon, parsley, chives, and anchovy, delivers a sophisticated herbaceous punch that elevates a simple beef patty into something truly extraordinary.

Created in the 1920s at San Francisco's Palace Hotel, Green Goddess dressing has long been a favorite for salads, but its tangy, herb-forward profile makes it absolutely perfect for burgers. The combination of creamy mayonnaise and sour cream provides richness, while lemon juice adds brightness and the herbs bring complex, garden-fresh flavor. A touch of anchovy paste adds savory depth without any fishy taste.

This burger is ideal for spring and summer dining when fresh herbs are at their peak, but it's delicious year-round. Paired with crisp lettuce, ripe tomato, and a toasted bun, it's a refined take on the classic burger that feels both elegant and satisfying. The bright green sauce makes this burger as visually stunning as it is delicious.
