| - Obviously the main attraction at Bub's is the burgers. Verdict? Really good. You can watch them form the patty in front of you, which is reassuring. Taste-wise, they're very flavorful (thanks to the fact that they're cooked medium-well instead of "so-well-done-that-you're-eating-shoe-leather"). The ordering system is nice; you get to pick whatever toppings you want, but it's not like you can't do that at any other burger place. The prices are really good as well; you would expect a "gourmet" burger restaurant to overcharge you since they could probably get away with it, but that's not the case with Bub's.
The main problem is the fries. They are delicious when hot, but after they cool down (about five minutes) they get really soggy, limp, and unappetizing. This is probably due to their greasiness, and the fact that they aren't particularly crispy to begin with. And since you get so many fries in even the smallest size, it's impossible to make a big dent in them before they go flaccid.
Bub's would get 4 stars from me if not for the fries. Usually I can overlook the poor execution of a menu item, but when it's the fries at a burger joint, I just can't ignore it. I mean, what's a burger without fries?
