It's all come down to this, folks. After three rounds of voting, you've whittled down a list of 16 delicious Central Ohio burgers to just two.
What's happening: Our final burger bracket showdown features two Columbus classics.
- Thurman Cafe, a historic German Village haunt with burgers as big as your head, has been flipping oversized patties since 1942. It's been hard to grab a table ever since "Man vs. Food" took notice in 2008.
- Cap City Fine Diner, meanwhile, has dished out classy comfort food since 1995, including a juicy All-American cheeseburger. It's famed local restaurateur Cameron Mitchell's second-oldest concept, now with three locations.
The latest: Both restaurants beat their Fry-nal Four competition by a 3-to-1 margin.
😅 Our take: … do we have to pick?
🗳️ What's next: Before watching tonight's March Madness Championship game, vote in our championship round!
- Be quick! Voting closes at 5pm Tuesday.
