Hey, it's Megan-A-Mess. If you ask me where to find one of the best burgers in the Quad Cities, I have an answer ready to go. And considering I once ordered this same burger three times in two days, I think that says everything you need to know about how good it is.

Meet the Let's Get Hot Burger from Double D Diner in Davenport. It's cheesy, smoky, a little spicy, and it's my new addiction...

A Burger Worth Breaking Your Diet For

The Let's Get Hot Burger comes loaded with a beef patty, pepper jack cheese, chipotle mayo, bacon, and grilled jalapeños.

It's a combination that hits all the right spots if you love a little heat with your burger. The flavors work together instead of making the whole thing about the spice.

But here's my biggest piece of advice: When they ask you what side you want, get the onion rings with a side of ranch.

The big crispy onion rings and cool, creamy ranch are the perfect partners for this burger. Trust me on this one. If you're going to do it, do it right.

(And if it's fall, you HAVE TO order the Caramel Pumpkin Iced Coffee)

Get to Know Double D Diner

You can find the Let's Get Hot burger at Double D Diner, located at 2225 W. 53rd St., Suite 400, in Davenport, on the city's west end.

The restaurant serves everything from juicy burgers to breakfast favorites, fluffy pancakes, and homestyle meals. It's a casual neighborhood diner where you can stop in for a hearty meal without needing a fancy occasion. The restaurant also has an outdoor patio where you can enjoy eating a Philly cheesesteak on a warm, sunny day.

Double D Diner is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., making it a breakfast and lunch stop rather than a late-night burger destination.

You can check out the menu or place an order at Double D Diner's website.

So, Is It the Best Burger in the Quad Cities?

Now, I know calling anything the best in the Quad Cities can start a debate. Everyone has their favorite burger joint, and I'm sure plenty of people are ready to defend their pick.

But this is my personal food review, and the Let's Get Hot Burger has earned its spot.

Between the beef, pepper jack, bacon, chipotle mayo, and grilled jalapeños, it's packed with flavor. Add a side of onion rings and ranch, and you've got my ideal burger order.

And if you see me at Double D Diner ordering it for the fourth time in a few days, mind your business.

I'm just supporting local restaurants. And eating a really, really good burger.
