| - Taste-wise, the burgers at Ketchup are great as far as fast food burgers go. The only problem is that it's almost the same price as a some of the gourmet burger spots around town.
I ordered the Big Bleu Burger ($12) and my girlfriend ordered the Morning Glory ($12). Both burgers were satisfying. The meat quality was above most fast food chains, and the ingredients tasted fresh. Aptly, Ketchup has a variety of different ketchups that you can choose from. I'd highly recommend the balsamic ketchup or the hickory ketchup.
But Ketchup burgers are far from gourmet--although they want to be so badly. Don't get me wrong, the food tastes great, but it's not worth $12 a burger (and that's without fries or a drink). We had a Groupon, so we thought we'd try it out. But honestly, I'd rather pay an extra $2 per person and get a true gourmet burger at Gordon Ramsay's BurGR, which is literally in the same building.
I could have easily given this place 2 stars, but as a standalone burger joint, I couldn't complain about any of the food.
This place is great if you want to spend the same amount on a fast food burger as you do on a gourmet burger. But honestly, Carl's Jr. has the same type of burgers for half the price. I get that it's Las Vegas, and this place also has a full bar attached to it, but part of eating on a budget is being wise when choosing a place to eat. Heck, even if you're not on a budget, it just makes sense to go to a better burger spot for the same price. Ketchup Premium Burger Bar is not a wise decision in either situation. It's great if you have a Groupon, but otherwise, just go to BurGR down the hall.
