You need to specify which Native Tongues. The original location downtown on 12th ave is fantastic because they use the real gaucho grill which gets that wonderful smokey charcoal maillard crust on the patty. The second location they opened in Britania does not have have the charcoal grill, they in fact fry it on a flat top but masquerade it as the same thing, and it is clearly inferior.
I liked Class clown, but not enough to justify the hour+ waits. The coney sauce is just a rip off of Ben's chilli bowl in DC (an Obama favorite), basically a beanless chili that you'd put on a sloppy Joe. Its not that great, it makes the burger a sloppy mess, and overtakes those wonderful beef patties.
I think Lil' Empire is superior all things considered.
