Doug’s Burger was founded by a man named Douglas, who was born in Tokyo but lives in California, as a vehicle for spreading the word about Miyako Island in Okinawa (which he fell in love with after many yellowfin tuna fishing trips). The two main burgers are Doug’s Burger, which uses patties made from 100% Tarama Beef, a type of Kuroge Wagyu beef grown on Miyako Island, and Doug’s Tuna Steak Burger. By using no artificial colorings, preservatives, or chemical additives, the shop is dedicated to providing its customers with peace of mind. Despite the American atmosphere, the foods all have some Japanese flair. The tuna steak burger comes with a dollop of wasabi soy sauce, while the hamburger uses Japanese spicy mustard instead of the yellow American kind. Meanwhile, the signature onion rings use Japanese dashi (soup stock) to add subtlety to the flavor. For an extra ¥260, you can add four kinds of melty cheese (cheddar, gouda, emmental and mozzarella) to the cheeseburger. This is what Doug calls the “lava upgrade.”
