| - Went here with a friend tonight. First of all, the setting was very nice with a animation-esque theme. The hostess told us that we could sit at the bar or the dining area, both of which have tvs. I had the Gold Standard burger ($18.50) and my friend had the big fat greek burger($18) with $2 sub sweet potato fries. We also shared the Tiramisu shake ($13). When the shake came out, our waiter gave us a steel mixing cup and a glass cup with the shake. I was wondering what that steel cup was and when I looked inside it was more of the shake. I guess they made extra and they were courteous enough to give the rest of it to us. The shake was pretty good and less sweet (thank God) than the shakes at Gordon Ramsay's BurGR. The burgers came out pretty quick (maybe in 10-15 minutes). It wasn't that busy so that helped. The fries come out in a small, aluminum bucket which is kinda unique. The Gold Standard burger was great. I liked especially the arugula and the tomato confit. Those veges balanced the heavy flavors of the bacon, cheese, and burger. Unfortunately, I noticed the fries at the middle and bottom of my bucket were a little soggy and oily. I tried my friend's greek burger which had greek spiced lamb. She had the tsaziki sauce on the side and I thought that was a good decision especially for this burger. The sauce had mint in it and my friend didn't like it. I, on the other hand, thought it worked bc I've hand lamb with mint jelly before. My friend told the waiter she didn't like the tsaziki sauce and the waiter was kind enough to bring out a cajun remoulade sauce instead. That cajun remoulade sauce was pretty good and tasted like thousand island with some cajun seasoning. My friend's sweet potato fries were great as they were crispy and did not taste oily at all. The service was great and attentive. Even though the burgers were on the pricey side (most were $16-$18), I would come back again bc of the casual setting, fast service, and the yummy tasting burgers and shakes.
