| - Recently returned to Zinburger with my Foodie brother and felt prompted to write this review because he insists that the Kobe Burger is one of the best (if not, THE BEST) he's ever tasted...and he's been EVERYWHERE. Granted, he orders it rare, with a strange mixture of mozzarella, swiss, bacon and extra tomatoes but to see the look on his face when he's eating it (we've been here a few times now), it's well worth the $15-18.
As for me, I've been here MANY times since they first opened and I absolutely love their Turkey Burger (I get it with avocado, bacon, cheddar and BBQ sauce) or Clint's "Almost Famous" Vegetable Burger - $9 with Smoked Mozzarella, Tomato Marmalade (but I hold the mayo; not needed). I love them both. Always perfectly prepared.
Oh, and a word about BUNS: they are placeholders IMHO so I don't like them to overpower the burger. In other words, they shouldn't be too thick or heavy and the taste shouldn't draw attention to itself and Zinburger's buns don't. They look thick but they're actually light and squishy so I can get my mouth around the burger with no problem.
All the fries are great, I rotate between the sweet potato and the zucchini style.
The banana cream pie is wonderful, as long as it comes out READY... Unfortunately, on more than one visit, we were given a pie slice that hadn't had time to set-up and was running all over the plate. Yuck. That should never happen. Management and wait staff should know better.
The only disappointment I've experienced with Zinburger is their shakes. I think the ice cream they use is awful. My family has tried almost every one on the menu (with vanilla and chocolate variations) and not one has gotten ordered a second time. That's a shame, but in a way, I don't mind because I really don't need the calories anyway...especially if I'm saving room for Banana Cream Pie!
