| - It wasn't bad, it really wasn't.
But I guess I just don't understand what the hype is all about.
One quick note: There is no light on their sign, so if you go at night, it might be tough to spot. This place is sandwiched right between Spoon and Goodwill.
I went with a group of three and we had to wait a few minutes for our table, but were seated fairly promptly. Our waitress was very patient as we tried to decide what we wanted, so the place gets at least 1 star just for her!
Drinks:
My friend wanted a Hurricane and either they DON'T have a truly FULL bar, or the bartender didn't know how to make it because they asked if there was something else she would like instead. She ordered the Sangria instead and said it wasn't very good.
I had the Salted Caramel Spiked Milkshake. YUM! It was the best thing I ate all night. The bourbon came through but not so much that it was not palatable, and the shake was just the right thickness. I think it is the best thing I had all night.
Other than that, we all drank water. I thought the spiked floats sounded very inventive, and if I go back I would probably try one.
Food:
We ordered the Homemade Chips with Crack dip and the Fried Pickles. The Fried Pickles were tasty, if not a bit greasy for my tastes. They are also fried in spears, not chips, just and FYI if you're thinking of trying them. I don't really have a preference over how the pickles are cut, but some people are picky about that kind of thing.
The Homemade Chips were fresh and crisp. The Crack did was pretty good, and we were impressed with the multiple layers of flavor, although we did note that it almost seemed like it was just melted cheese with chili mixed in. Not sure I would call it Crack, but it was pretty good.
We all agreed the burgers were... MEH.... Not bad, not good, just a burger.
The meat tasted great and was well-cooked and I LOVE the fact that they source many of their ingredients locally, but the FLAVOR just wasn't there. I had the Button Buster and it was like unflavored rib meat on unflavored burger meat with cheese. The onion ring added some nice texture, but the flavor of that didn't jump out at me either. It was just missing something... We decided, well, what do you cook ribs in? Barbeque sauce. So we asked for some, added it to my burger, and YUM! So... tip: If you order the Button Buster, ask for a side of BBQ to go with it, sooooo much better.
My friend had the Fire in the Hole and thought it was a solid burger, but wasn't blown away by it. She also said she was still hungry after dinner, but it had been a long time since she ate, so take that for what it's worth.
Our overall impression was this:
The menu seemed creative, but there was no mention of ordering a "custom" burger, so we didn't ask. Alcoholic shakes = YUM.
We wouldn't recommend this to someone who was asking for a phenomenal burger, we would send them to Tessaro's. However if we had a group of friends going to BRGR and wanted us to join, we wouldn't say 'no.'
