Having been seated near the kitchen, you could see and hear that the cooks know what they're doing when it comes to grilling meat. That being said, this is a far cry from being my favorite burger, let alone a place I'd return to.
The problem is the burgers are EXPENSIVE. When I dish out $15+ for a burger, it had better be a Lark Creek steakburger, or something like one. These burgers are good, but the quality toppings mask what is essentially just generic beef with too little seasoning. I expect more for this price.
Beside the burgers, the cheese sticks are fantastic. Panko-breaded with salsa for dipping; they're a perfect appetizer. They also have some choice beers on tap, including a few Keith's like the Blond and IPA.
I liked Burger Bar, but I really wanted to like it more. When your bill comes out to $60 though and you don't feel like you've been blown away by the meat, you've got to call a spade a spade and move on.
