Review:
The presentation of the burger was excellent and it stood about 5-6 inches tall with a wooden spike holding it up.  The spike must have been embedded into the wooden board because it took some effort to extract it.  There were several green and red cherry sized tomatoes at the bottom layer with lettuce, pickles, chilli's and fried onions helping to build the height.  The burger doesn't come with fries which are extra, I had them and they were very nice.

The bread roll was very brioche like but mine was a little on the dry size (hence the 3 burger rating).  I had bits of bread and crumbs scattered around my side of the table.  Other than this it is difficult to fault the burger.  I have had tastier but overall it was a very enjoyable burger.

The service in the restaurant was very good with the staff very attentive and friendly.

About the venue:
Jamie's Italian in Cambridge is located in the heart of city centre very close to the theatres and shops.
