Now, owner Jon Basso has told SFGATE that Heart Attack Grill’s time has come at the current location, which dates to 2011. “Las Vegas has priced the regular middle-class person out of the opportunity of having a good time,” Basso responded when reached by email. “Our customer base [is] predominantly regular people. The Heart Attack Grill needs to move to a new location.”

        Never been myself, but I saw a few live streamers go there, they also had waitresses that would put people in stockades and spank them with a paddle in front of the whole restaurant. Voluntarily I suppose, for some reason.

          They spank you if you don’t finish your food. Basically, if you don’t want to get spanked, make sure your eyes aren’t bigger than your stomach. Their smallest burger, the “Single Bypass”, is a 1/2lb patty, with cheese, tomato, onion, and chili sauce, with an option to add 5 slices of bacon. Even that’s a relatively big burger for most people outside the USA.

          But they go all the way up to an “Octuple Bypass”, which is 8x everything I just listed. So if you’re not ready to eat 4lbs of beef and 40 slices of bacon, along with a bunch of cheese, tomato, onion, and chili sauce, you’re gonna want to avoid that one. The biggest one I managed was the Quadruple, and I didn’t eat at all the next two days. I failed on a Quintuple, so I got spanked, and they do not hold back, that shit hurts.

            OH! Yes that was it, thank you. That makes a lot more sense lol. Well your butt hurt for a while but it was probably better for your body in the long run lol. So the quadruple is 2 lbs then? JFC…

              Yeah, the quadruple is 4 1/2lb patties, so 2lbs of beef (plus 20 slices of bacon, and all the other fixings). It’s not something I eat every day, but if I’m in Vegas and I have time, I stop by. Well, I guess not anymore, since they’re closed. I hope the new location is somewhere I can get to once or twice a year.

            NIce :) Well it seemed like everyone was having fun with it anyways, it’s just very strange when you think about it for a while. Not that strange is bad.
