When I moved to The Burgh Burgatory was one of the first restaurants I heard of. So as you can imagine they have been on my list ever since. I finally had the chance to try them a few weekends ago. I must state that I used the no wait app. It said there was no wait the entire 15 min it took to get there. However when I arrival I was told there would be a 15 min wait for a table.
We were seated by a window in the front of the place. Which is fine with me. I enjoy people watching and lateral rotation. Our waitress showed up about ten min later and asked for our drink orders. I already knew I wanted a hard shake. I went with the espresso love because coffee!!! I really liked it. I wasn't expecting the little bits of crunch that I believe were chocolate covered coffee beans.
For my burger I had a hard time choosing. I ended up going with one off the menu instead of creating my own. I felt it was a better way to judge the quality of the place then making my own. I chose the Pot Luck burger and while I did really enjoy it I was a bit greasy. I also opted for fries instead of chips. I love the rosemary seasoning on the fries. It is one of my favorite herbs. However I found myself wishing the fries had a bit more of a crunch.
Overall service was slow and a bit lacking. Our waitress felt the need to explain every thing on the menu if there was even a question about one thing. I appreciated that but I'm also well aware of what smoked Gouda tastes like.
I have been to burger competitions and consider myself well versed in the burger department and while this wasn't the best burger I've ever had. It was was good.
