| - I hope you're happy now Gordon Ramsey. I've completed the trifecta of being to all 3 of your incarnations in Las Vegas now.
BurGR is located inside Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino. Those of you who have read my PH reviews will know unless you're staying at this hotel or very near walking distance-wise, it's not the greatest spot in terms of ease of accessibility. I will note this is the first good valet experience even if it is on the third try.
The decor seemed trendy & chic yet it still felt casual. I found the place thanks to two large screen TV's bearing the restaurant's name & emblem. There were also numerous TV's throughout the place showing various sporting events.
Place was crazy packed, wait time was 45min-1hr! Fortunately my sister and I didn't have to wait. I did ask the hostess if this was a normal lunch hour and she said yes, it's like this pretty much all day except for a few hours between lunch & dinner. That's pretty long to wait but on the other hand it's probably a good sign if it's always that busy. Reservations are recommended.
We came for Restaurant Week but it didn't stop my sister from sampling the Gin Green Tea and from I trying shake #3. Banana shake with top 1/3 being butterscotch pudding and a dollop of whipped cream to top it all off. Pretty rich and creamy, big chunks of banana still floating through the thickness of the shake.
I had the Hell's Kitchen burger(asadero cheese, jalapenos, avocado & tomato) & she had the Euro burger(truffle aioli, goat cheese, arugula & tomato). We also had an order of the truffle fries w/ house made ketchup & truffle aioli and the beer battered sweet maui onion rings w/ chipotle ketchup & cheddar ranch. Not to mention the sticky toffee pudding push pops to finish the meal. It was all so good but I was ready to fall over from being so full at the end.
Our waitress was very nice & attentive. There was a few close water refill 'emergencies' but it didn't last long LOL. She told us the menus, which were double folded with a round cutout at the bottom center so it would stand up and accomodate the napkin/utensil wrap through it, could be taken for souvenirs if we so chose. Same for the expended plastic push pops(dunno if it matters but my sister noticed were made in Italy).
For $20 Restaurant Week it was a great deal since the burger & fries were already around $25, then the dessert to boot. Out of the 3 GR spots I'd probably choose this place to dine at more often if I HAD to go again hehe. It's just more my style, but that's just me. Not to say anything was really bad at his other two places aside from the prices. I give this place a solid 4.5 stars but gave it the benefit and bumped it to 5 since theres no half-star option. Can't really penalize Ramsey for PH having such bad accessibilty.
