| - Gave Burger Nuts a try while I was in the area after checking out the other Yelp reviews. It's a small place with a decor (and free peanuts) very similar to a Five Guys. I was pretty impressed by the selection of burgers and sausages available: Angus Beef, Kobe, Bison, Bratwurst, Chorizo, Turkey, and Veggie. On top of that, they offered three types of buns--egg, multi-grain, and pretzel--and free toppings too numerous to list (though there are some interesting highlights like stadium mustard, peanut butter, pesto mayo, ham, salami, and pepperoni).
I went with a double Kobe burger on a pretzel bun with a side of onion rings. I definitely wasn't blown away by the burger, but it was okay. I expected the burger to be a little more juicy than it was, and I wish the 1/4 lb. patties were a little thicker rather than flattened out (kind of like the flat Wendy's patties). The onion rings were decent--the serving is big enough for two to share.
Comparisons to Five Guys are inevitable. Burger Nuts definitely has a better selection of burgers, buns, and condiments compared to Five Guys, but I would have to give Five Guys the nod in terms of producing a quality burger.
