| - I HAD to go to Boogie's. I drive past it every day and know they are not open late so today was a day I could take advantage and go try their food for my first time. I had heard good things and also read some good reviews. I am not as much of a burger person as my husband so I had to bring him along too for an added opinion! We arrived, got one of the last parking spots (just a small little plaza, be prepped to park on the road) and in we went - greeted nicely and promptly. The place was cheery and bright, brought me back to the 80's with the Ms Pacman and Donkey Kong video games! We perused the menu at the counter and we made our first mistakes. When you find a place known to serve a good, fresh burger, why mess it up by ordering a "novelty" burger? I wanted to have a special burger for some reason and strayed from my tried and true lettuce, tomato, extra onion and ketchup. Sigh. So, starving and my eyes wild from the ample choices, I ordered the Fay burger that had 1 patty, fried mushrooms, fried onion, the regular fixins' and mushroom sauce. Did I NOT think that this would be a mushy burger? Sigh... so when the burger came, I had to eat it as fast as I could and any thoughts I had of taking half of it home with me were dashed. Just too messy and the lettuce in the burger would not have lasted the trip home due to the mushroom sauce. It was not a bad burger - at all - but as I was eating, I was craving fresh, crisp onions, crunchy lettuce and tomato and would have liked to have tasted the patty more. I messed up! The size of the burger was good, knife through the centre to keep it together. The sesame bun, just OK. I like mine a little softer. Boogie's boasts that they have 100% fresh burgers, Alberta beef to boot, this is a good thing. My husband had a Sam's burger that had 2 patties, signature red sauce, fried egg and the fixins'. He was not keen on the red sauce which was a mix of ketchup and relish. He wishes too that he would have kept the burger simple. We each ordered a small fry and we could have easily split one. I very rarely eat fries - when I do I want them to be very good but they were just average. We had a nice booth and the restaurant was not that busy so it was an enjoyable place to have a late lunch. I give this visit 2 stars but I am going to try it again another time, keeping it simple by ordering a burger I know I want in the first place.
