| - I know I'm in the minority, but I did not enjoy my meal at BurGR.
We got the jalapeno poppers to start, which were the best pat of the meal. They were well-fried and the sauce that came with them was excellent. There's supposed to be one jalapeno that still has seeds and so is spicier than the others, but we have no idea who ate it as nobody got one that was overtly spicy. But an excellent dish.
The burgers, unfortunately, were not something I enjoyed at all. I ordered the Farm Burger because I love having an over easy egg in my burger. When it arrived, the egg yolk had already been broken and had oozed all over the plate, slightly soaking through the bottom bun. The patty itself was overcooked (I asked for medium, received just over medium well), yet lacked any sort of sear or flavor. The meat was a very neutral flavor. There was no char or anything to give that patty some taste and some texture. It was also very under seasoned. So altogether, it was a disappointing burger. My dining companions also had overcooked patties and also commented on the lack of flavor.
The onion rings were good, but the potato fries were not very well fried and, again, under seasoned.
There are also very large images of Gordon Ramsay on the wall making some crazy face with flames around him. It's a huge in-your-face tie to Hell's Kitchen. It was very obvious that he's catering to people coming for the Gordon Ramsay name from seeing him on TV. It cheapens the place and makes it feel pretty touristy. That same image of him with the flames is on the menu as well.
The cost came to just over $30 each and was not worth it at all. If you want to eat at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant in Vegas, go to GR Steak at Paris.
