| - I'm always a little forgiving of new restaurants, especially if they're trying to buck the traditional ways of doing things. In this case, however, I feel previous reviews were not fair whatsoever as I had a far more positive experience.
Let's start with image. Simple yet effective is how I'd describe it. When you walk in you aren't inundated with a bunch of ridiculous fluff. You grab a clipboard with a checklist for toppings.This place is about burgers, that's it.
Although at first I was a little concerned that a burger could cost $10 with no extra cost toppings, but then when I was told that each of their patties was 1/3 of a pound meaning the $10 was a full pound, I was completely satisfied with the price (they do have single and double patty offerings for less price).
As for the burger, it must have been a vegetarian who gave it 1 star for Alberta beef. Unlike cardboard offerings at McDonalds or grease traps at 5 Guys, I found the burger to be super tasty and juicy. The fact that I had complete control over my toppings was a plus. The fries were decent as well. They wouldn't steal the show from the burger and are a nice compliment.
I can't comment on the frozen yogurt as I never tried it, but that alone is a selling feature that will bring me back later. As for the other reviews, I would completely ignore them and try this place out for yourself. It may not be the best burger you've ever had, but it's definitely decent and not a waste of money.
