No, I like them. Especially classic Red Hook street style. But I know what they are not and I know that I will only find disappointment in someone putting something on my plate at that price and try tell me it's a burger.
At today's food prices, I don't think it's uncommon at all for a burger to be good enough to be worth $20 if it comes with a side. Some fast food places almost cost that much now and their quality is lower than the places I don't mind paying a fairly standard meal price for a burger.
I get it, shit's expensive and it sucks but it also feels so weird to me how often this drum is beaten of "burgers aren't worth much money". Why not? They can be very filling and delicious, and the burgers I like most have a least a semi-expensive topping or two on them.
