Atlanta Restaurant Deals for Furloughed Federal Employees During the Government Shutdown | Eater Atlanta

"I found that BGR Burger at Midtown’s Atlantic Station is among the restaurants offering furloughed federal workers discounts off meals; eligible workers should go to the concierge desk at stairwell 15-Teal with a valid government employee ID to receive an ACard and the list of participating restaurants." - Beth McKibben

Was craving a good burger and decided to come here. They didn’t disappoint! This was one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time. I got the Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger. Certified Angus Beef - Served with Applewood bacon, cheddar cheese, bacon onion marmalade on a Pretzel Bun. I replaced the bacon onion marmalade with extra bacon and got raw onions. Also, I added a fried egg. This was my first time having a fried egg on a burger and it was really good. I definitely recommend this place.

Yea burger just wasnt seasoned right... Service was good. They do give a lot of fries but this definitely a burger you get if you just need something quick ... Way better burgers out there as far as seasoned.

When I say the employee’s as a whole were more than disappointing I wouldn’t even recommend anyone to eat at this establishment. That’s how perturbing the situation today was. I came in with my husband we ordered over $40 worth of food for two to dine in. Once we ate I couldn’t finish meal I ask not one but several employees to hand me to go boxes for meal. All at separate times informed me they ran out of to go boxes and one employee recommended a brown sandwich bag I was so perturbed I looked at my parmesan tots and said it would leak through and nothing was done. I was so livid that the women weren’t capable of finding a solution let alone didn’t care to I threw my food away with lack of assistance and/or help and asked for manager. They informed me one wasn’t available and that Tania is the manager and isn’t present to which was absurd to me and handed me her number. My husband even tried to get them to place food in to go box before we left because we weren’t receiving the customer service we paid for. My husband was very bothered and called effective immediately to find a resolution just to speak to the same person I spoke to at the location with big fro she had no solution over the phone until my husband informed her he then will contact corporate being he too owns more than one restaurant. She then told him she could have had it wrapped and that only upset us both because they gave us no solution after trying more than three individual times for the Hispanic cooks to speak negatively of us (I am foreign and can speak more than one language.) when I was very respectful and simply asked for it to just be wrapped to go. If they didn’t want to wrap it due to us eating from it that could’ve been solved if they handed me the salad bowls to utilize. They asked us to come back such that they can make it over free of charge but the point is that wasted more unnecessary time and money when they could’ve just handed me two salad bowls and we would’ve been fine and satisfied. I personally won’t be coming back and I mean that! NOT EVER AGAIN!!!!!!

Very very good burger spot. A little pricy for 2 burger, fries, and drink. But absolutely worth every penny. This is my new go to when I want a great burger.

Almost in the center of Atlantic Station. It is right below the Museum of illusions. Which makes it great if you want to treat your kids to a fun time and then to a delicious burger. Get ready to pay at least $20 a head. This is not just another franchise burger joint.

The reviews on here are either bogus or out of date. I was hesitant to try this place because the reviews were so bad. I have never sat down and dined in but everytime I have dropped in to pick up food I was helped in a timely manner and always received hot fresh delicious food. I’m a big fan of the fries 😍😍 if they were crispier that’d be even more great!! My favorite burger is the pretzel bacon cheddar the bacon Jam is out of this world 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

I guess I came on the wrong day. A lot of menu items were crossed out and unavailable, which was cool. I ordered the western Bbq burger. But then not having the egg nog holiday shake was out because they had no vanilla ice cream. That did it for me. The burger wasn't bad and was ok. The bacon was kind of dry, but the patty was good. The bun was the best part, it was buttered and extremely soft. The service was good though, and the food was made quickly. Not sure I would return though.

I was a little nervous because I had an experience the night before where I was unable to eat due to ingredients in my order at another place. I mention that to say I was very annoying with my questions about the burger. My impossible burger was fantastic. I did ask for it to not have the onions on it, and they were on there but were very good so I wasn't angry. The location was slow and only a few people were there. I imagine it might have a loud echo when busy and not a place where you would want to have a meeting. My sandwich was cooked properly, I added extra tomato and lettuce. They had condiment containers to go which is nice because I grabbed my food and took it back to my hotel. The tots were crispy. I enjoyed my meal!

The sandwich was great! Big and juicy BUT the price for just a sandwich at a fast food joint was totally not worth it. I paid 13.00 nothing more did I get. No pickle no chips just sandwich. The service was quick considering I ordered online. The ambiance is just what it is- a fast food spot!

Worst burger I have had in many years. My first experience will be my last. There was a sign out side of the BGR Burgers that stated Best Burger in Town for 12.50 plus fries. This burger was terrible. It was like a burger your grandmother had in the freezer and microwaved the burger. It was not hot .... barely warm . I ordered Swiss cheese and American cheese with Avocado . Fries and a unsweetened tea. The bill total after tip was 28.82. (note .. I gave the tip before I received my burger and very bad customer service) I inquired about the price to the manager and was told because I got avocado and two cheeses that is why the cost was so expensive. I told her I was not informed about the difference because one additional cheese and avocado when I ordered. I would have not gotten the extra cheese and hard avocado if it was over ten dollars. Lastly , the cheese appeared to be micro waved on the warmed hamburger meat. Definitely not fresh . Definitely not freshly grilled. The bun was not toasted and the fries were not large or hot. It was a total disappointment with very bad customer service. I felt like I had been robbed at Atlantic Station. I would not serve this hamburger to the homeless for free. It should also be noted, that the laugher and unprofessional staff was like a Woody Allen movie of staff that really did not care about their customers.

The event I was suppose to attend ended up getting cancelled because of inclement weather so I decided to not let it be a complete loss and try this burger spot and I was hungry. They have the menu displayed on the wall and you can definitely have your burger your way! Once you decide what you want you place your order with the person behind the counter in my case it was a young lady. I love the fact that they offer a variety of toppings for your burger yummy! I got fries and a sweet tea. The was displayed different art but what caught my attention was the Samuel L Jackson from Pulp Fiction eating a burger painting. I couldn't even finish my fries because I was so full from the burger! I will definitely be back again. Until next time SYOY! Oh and check out my video!

This was a nice find while walking around the Atlantic station area. I went shopping and needed a quick bite to eat. The menu was cool with options for everyone. The fries were way better than I would've expected. It was quiet and I was the only diner so I was able to enjoy my meal in peace

I came here and ordered a Western BBQ Burger. The burger was a bit pricey and wasn't amazing or anything. However, I love BBQ and Onion Rings in my burgers so I was very pleased with how it turned out. The other reviews are surprising to see to me because service wise everything was great when I went. If I'm craving a good BBQ burger I will probably come here again.

We stop in on this place yesterday for a lunch date. Food was okay. The Man was still hungry after his burger (it did look a little wimpy) but my BBQ Bacon chicken was the bees knees. The Man stated that the waffle fries were great and I loved my tater tots. The Man did crack jokes about me eating tater tots at my age. PSA: The consumption of tater tot has no age restrictions. The audacity of the Man. The only draw back is you have to grab your drink(limited selection) from a 12 pk on the counter. Weird. And we didn't know if we could get refills as we should have been able to. Clean place, nice people.

Glad to get good food. Stopped at 4 restaurants before this one. This one smelled good.

Overall, very poor customer service with little care or thought given to the customer. Tried to order the Western BBQ burger but was informed that all the toppings were not available - but they still charged full price. My alternatives to was "buy something else". Overall, poor attitude and average tasting food - and very overpriced. My advice, find an alternative.

The food is TERRIBLE and there a LONGGGGG wait. Don't even waste your time and money. & oh, if you want a milkshake, forget about it. Waited in a line that was unnecessarily long (2 people in front of me & it took like 15 minutes to get to the front)... & when I did, I was told that the menu items I wanted were not available. Nothing like wasting your time trying to patronize a crappy establishment. . Save you time & money & go elsewhere.

I had been here before so at first glance of that receipt and I was reminded of how expensive this place was but what has DEFINITELY changed since the last time is superb service but most of all them BURGERRRS, oh my gawd so delicious. I have the Bacon Cheeseburger with a fried egg 10/10and my wife had the Western burger (8/10) the Fries were so crisp yet soft! Man!!! Definitely worth it. I meant to take a pic but by the time we sat down and tasted those fries it was too late.

Love burgers so trying different burger places is always something I'm up for. Burgers are ALRIGHT, nothing outstanding about the taste. I like that you can customize your own or get the signature items. Good size and plenty of sides. I HATE how much they tax here though. It cost about $55 for 2 meals for me and my fiance. I don't think it's worth that at all. Don't think I'd eat here again just because of how expensive it was for what you're getting and quality of it was average.

If you want to get a quick burger, I guess this is a place that you should think about. But to be honest, you can probably get a better burger elsewhere. I think this is a quick bite to eat, but don't think too much about the quality though. I'll start with the restaurant itself. This place has no AC. I came here twice, and both times were okay, but I definitely have had better. I do have to say though that one good thing for me here is that they have lettuce wraps. I don't mind that one bit. The service was okay, but I think the biggest thing that stood out for me was the no AC and the bathroom was not the cleanest. Anyways. It's a burger joint. It's in the title of the restaurant. There's nothing special about this place. If you want something of a higher quality, I would suggest to look elsewhere. Other than that, if you want something quick and sustenance to the next meal, BGR should be a consideration.

Came in at 10 with my family, they close at 11. When ordering, we were told that the drink machine was down, so we had to order bottled drinks. We soon find out (by another customer going to the drink machine) that the machine was actually up and working. Upon discovering this, we went up to the counter and asked for a refund on the $4 bottled drinks that we had to purchase, which cost more than the fountain drinks. My frustration isn't necessarily with having to pay more for the drinks, but instead I'm frustrated with the fact that the cashier lied in our face about the drink machine not working in order to make a few extra dollars. The only redeeming quality of this entire experience was that the burgers weren't bad. They weren't the best, but they weren't the worst. I doubt that I'll be back, at least not until they give my family a refund on those drinks and rectify their mistakes.

I've been to BGR once at this location before and previously in other cities. I can say that I won't be coming back to this location again. The staff will literally just give you anything. The picture attached is the garlic Parmesan fries. It's literally a box of fries with globs of garlic and parmesan thrown on top. Not tossed, mixed or anything. The burger was bland and the toppings requested were just thrown on. Presentation is horrible and taste is bland. Also interesting is that if you try to place and order online (I'm across the street), they want to charge you a $3.50 service charge to PLACE an order you will pick up.

Overpriced & mediocre. I spent $13 for the burger itself then $7 for a side of fries. You'd think it's included in the price of the burger & The girl at the register had a weird attitude . Not really worth the experience .

I cant attest to their staff or service because I only placed an order online and ate it to-go. I will say that my order of sweet potato fries was amazing and a large portion for how much I paid. I will definitely have to come back and try a burger to go with it next time!

After having paid almost 30 dollars for a 5 guys burger, fries and drink, the 15 dollars I paid for the same combo didn't seem bad at all.... My fries were hot, crunchy and seasoned just right; though my burger was a little under what I asked for (medium) it was still a decent burger that had some flavor to it. The buns are buttery beautiful and I love the metal prison trays they serve your dining in orders on.... reminds me of home... but anyway!! You can get a great burger here.... Trust me....

There is nothing better than a flame grilled burger and BGR flame grills their burgers. My boyfriend and I were at Atlantic Station waiting for a movie to start and since we had 2 hours to spare we decided to get a quick bite to eat at BGR. I don't eat meat so I was excited to see that they had a veggie burger on the menu and it was freshly made. The restaurant was very busy on a Saturday afternoon with the line being out the door. The restaurant is small and due to the high volume of traffic it seems that they can't seem to keep the place as clean as they should. Having someone walk through and clean off the empty tables as people leave would be a nice touch. The bathroom was gross and could use some cleaning as well. My BF ordered a regular burger and fries and I ordered a BGR veggie burger and fries. My boyfriend enjoyed his burger he said it was cooked well and had a great taste. My veggie burger on the other hand was over cooked it tasted burnt and was not at all what I expected. The fries were not good either. Our meals were pricey and I was expecting much better quality. There are several quality burger spots in the area I would not consider this place one of them. If you are extremely hungry and have no way to make it to any other restaurant that serves burgers and fries you might want to check it out.

Pretty good burger and fries. I stopped here after filming in Atlantic station. I had a taste for a good burger and this was the spot chosen. Food was hot. Fries were pretty good but the burger wasn't "life changing". All in all still pretty good and a really fast and clean establishment.

I was craving a good ole cheese burger and passed by here while walking around the Atlantic Station. I can say i fully satisfied my craving! Social distancing was good and masks were a requirement! I liked that very much. The food was good and came out pretty quickly. The burger is very well worth its value. Will definitely be visiting again and perhaps trying new things!! I have my eyes on that beyond burger!!

Where to begin - well not the food because I don't even remember tasting it . I just wanted to get out of there . The whole place was a trash dump . Trash on tables with no one to buss them . Trash piled well over the rim of every trash can . Stuff all over the bathroom . A crater of a drain hole right in front of the toilet ... wife said sink in ladies room was falling off the wall . Handel on men's room door almost falling off . Ketchup and mustard all over the counter. A piece of paper taped to the register with sharpie and pencil showing the 10 things they were out of . Then everything came out in to go boxes for our dine in order . Staff said they couldn't wash dishes because the pump was broken !? Why are you even open ?! Couldn't get out of the place fast enough

I can unfortunately confirm that anyone who gave this place more than 2 stars either a) works here b) owns it or c) has never eaten good food. I feel wronged that I had to give a star at all!! The food was ok at best, however it was the $6.50 shake that tasted like watered down Wal-mart ice cream that ruined the whole meal. And who serves Pepsi... really?

Awesome for vegetarians! Lol. I'm always seeking a good veggie burger. Today I had the most amazing veggie burger of all time! I was nervous about this food but I also wanted to give them a fair chance. This veggie burger was fresh, flavorful and filling. Y'all know I'm a fry critic and these fries didn't even need condiments. The bun on the burger was a bit thick but overall, I enjoyed this veggie burger tremendously!!!

I WISH I WOULD HAVE CHECKED YELP BEFORE I ATE HERE!!!!! Terrible terrible terrible. THEE ONLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY reason we decided to eat here was because my babies were crying starving. First of all, it's hella small in here. Like what??? Customer service was annoying, cashier acted like she had an attitude. I ordered a chicken sandwich, a burger with an egg on it, and chicken tenders and fries from my little ones. My chicken sandwich was so gross. cold and had no flavor. My fiance swore his burger was good, but I don't eat breakfast style eggs (he had the burger w the egg on it) so I didn't try it to verify his statement. But I don't believe him lol. I did however try my babies chicken tenders. If they were freshly made they would have been cool. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW WE WAIT 10 MINUTES FOR FOOD AND ALL THREE PLATES OF FRIES ARE NOT FRESHLY COOKED. Then........... An employee comes to the table DIRECTLY next to ours to, unexpectedly, apparently, clean it up and literally says, OUT LOUD " Man I hate it when people don't clean up after themselves!!!" And was legit mad!!! By all means, be pissed baby girl, but another customer should NEVER hear you say that while they're in your establishment. After she gathered up their trash, she LITERALLY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME "when you're finished, the trash can is over there" Babbbyyyyy if looks could kill. I laughed and said "girl............ Bye" she tried to smooth it over, REAL QUICK, by engaging in conversation with my aunt. You couldn't POSSIBLY think you would get a positive response from me!!!!!!!!!!!! Every time I come to Atlanta I have at least ONE BAD EXPERIENCE AT A RESTAURANT WHAT THE DEAL

My burger was under seasoned, honestly had no flavor. I ordered it medium and it was medium rare. My son ordered the waygu with truffle medium and it was well done. The rings were great and fries were ok. Definitely get the half & half if you want more food. Price was way to high for what you get. Five guys is so much better and half the price. I won't come back and wouldn't recommend

Absolutely the nastiest and disgusting onion rings I have ever had! They take onion skins and batter them! This is the worst part of the onion, which you can't eat, and fry them! Terrible! You should be put out business for ripping people off!

I like coming here when I need a quick bite and I'm craving a burger (vs sandwich) - plus I like the smell of flame-grilled burgers. Yes getting burgers + fries + soda here can get expensive - but I always get the Kid's Meal which is 2 sliders (or hot dog) + fries + soda for $5.95. See photo - very reasonable portion and I get a full-size drink too. Their burgers are good and juicy - I always request all toppings (lettuce, tomato, onions, pickle). Fries are good too. Since burgers & fries are cooked-to-order, it does take a while. The only con I have is they don't clean the tables between guests - all the tables have crumbs and stuff :( Again, good option if you need a quick bite between shopping. FYI located across from Publix/DSW and Which Wich.

This place is literally just a burger joint. Nothing special here. If you're just wanting a normal burger this place can satisfy your craving, but by no means is this an exceptional burger place.. In my opinion you could get a far better burger for the same price range at many other places. The location of this joint is conveniently located in Atlantic Station while you're shopping. The positive side is the burger did taste decent. The patty was a little undercooked since I ordered a medium burger. Was definitely more towards medium rare.

With prices like this, I was expecting Five Guys quality of burgers. Well, it wasn't. I just had a cheese burger with pepper jack, mushrooms, lettuce and tomatoes. It was just eh. The buns were room temperature, I wished they were heated. It might have made this experience a bit better. Though unlike Five Guys, they do ask how you want your burger cooked. The place was hot. Was the A/C down for the day or is it like that every day?

Considering the prices, I expected the burgers to be a tad better. My friends did not like the veggie burgers; they were slightly too sweet and the rice in the patty was off-putting. My sliders were good flavor-wise but the patty was overcooked and essentially a regular patty cut in half and put into two separate buns. My friend who had added barbecue sauce on his burger said it was applied sloppily and my other friend who previously ate here before said that the mushroom Swiss burger (no patty) was what she got last time and enjoyed that significantly more than the veggie burger. On a positive note, the service was quick and the fries were crispy and delicious. Overall, the food was okay. Nothing notable enough for us to return again.

Pros. Very helpful and relatable personnel. Yo! The Garlic Fries are on the money! All I can say is you have to try them! Cons. It did talk a little longer to get my food but maybe veggie burgers take longer to cook. Overall. This is a good spot to chill and eat a burger.

Torn between 2* and 3* here. Overall, right at a 2.5*. Details - 2* because this place is expensive! Color me shocked when my bacon cheeseburger and fries totaled at $11 and change! Huh? Oooh, that's because a side of fries is $2.49 (what?) and whatever else for the bacon up charge. My bad- I ordered it without carefully reviewing the menu board/prices, but I do think there's a little deceptive advertising based on posted "base" prices then what all else adds on top... Cooked to order would give me towards a 4* bent - BUT - this is a disadvantage when you're in a tiny bit of a hurry AND the kitchen staff is not working at full pace. Note to mgt: when customers can see your staff listening to phones/i-whatevers and not promptly pushing through orders...not so cool. The burger was a good med rare (even though I had to get it to go and couldn't enjoy sitting down as planned) and the fries are thin and crispy. But - $11+? For a regular size burger- a la chain terms v restaurant terms!- with cheese and bacon, and fries....not on the regular!

BGR - The Burger Joint opened Summer 2012, overtaking the former Doc Green's space in the ever-changing landscape of Atlantic Station. I was disappointed to see Doc Green's go because it was one of the healthier food options in the development. When The Burger Joint opened, I thought to myself, "not another burger joint." Flip Burger, Yeah! Burger, Bocado, and the Vortex are all within two miles of Atlantic Station. Grindhouse Killer Burgers and Googie Burger are about three miles away. That's plenty of good burger options and unfortunately for The Burger Joint, they are all better. The Burger Joint has over 20 locations nationwide, stretching from California to New York. This location in Atlantic Station is so far the only one in Georgia. Many lackluster reviews steered me away until I received a birthday gift certificate in the mail. I have no idea how I got on the restaurant's mailing list. The gift certificate was good for one free burger (any kind) during my birth month. As is probably intended for restaurant gift certificates, off I went with others in tow. The restaurant has an open, casual setup. Minimal, modern decor with indoor and outdoor seating. The kitchen is completely open and in full view of the customers, so that's cool. You can see all the meats being grilled over an open flame. You order upfront and pick up at the kitchen counter when your order is ready. Drinks, silverware, condiments, etc. are self-serve. Drinks are served out of a single Coca-Cola Freestyle machine. Unless you order the weekday lunch special known as "The Box Set" (available Mon-Fri, 11am-2pm), expect to spend $11+ for a burger, fries, and fountain drink. The Box Set gets you a regular burger, regular fries, and fountain drink for $8.49. If you don't come when The Box Set is available, everything on the menu is only available a la carte. In other words, you have to order the burger, side, and drink separately. A regular burger starts at $6.49, a regular fries is $2.29, and a fountain drink is $2.25, so you can see how the prices add up quick for a burger, fries, and Coke. There are specialty burgers ($8.49+ each) which include ahi tuna and lobster. Sweet potato fries ($2.99), grilled asparagus, and onion rings (both $3.49 each) are also available as sides. Milkshakes are available for $4.99 each. I don't believe the beef is grass-fed, but it is dry-aged and hormone free, so that counts for something. Everything is cooked fresh to order. I tried the following: Burgers: Greek Burger - ground leg of lamb seasoned with cumin, mint, garlic and topped with tzatziki and feta Turkey Burger - blended with portabello mushrooms and gorgonzola cheese Sides: Sweet potato fries Grilled asparagus Onion Rings The burgers were humongous. Everything about them was huge and thick, from the patties to the buns to the slices of tomato. Holy crap. Needless to say, they were filling and messy to eat. Not only were the burgers ginormous, but so were the onion rings. I've eaten a lot of onion rings over my lifetime and The Burger Joint easily takes the cake for biggest onion rings. Look at how they dwarf this burger: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bgr-the-burger-joint-atlanta?select=f3e_FGxEgUqy5Hp7tjQoeQ#f3e_FGxEgUqy5Hp7tjQoeQ. Generally, the burgers were okay. The Turkey Burger patty was loose, falling apart even. The ingredients in the patty were roughly blended together. The ground lamb in the Greek Burger was hearty. I asked for it to be cooked medium, but it definitely came off the grill well-done. One of the edges of the patty was burnt to a crisp, evident both visually and in taste and texture. Not only was the lamb burnt, but so were several pieces of the grilled asparagus. Burnt mostly to black, in fact: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bgr-the-burger-joint-atlanta?select=f3e_FGxEgUqy5Hp7tjQoeQ#u5ChzP4LAJQHPAC3PoZMzg. Be sure to ask for lettuce, onion, tomato, etc. specifically if you want those toppings because they won't ask you. A plentiful amount of sweet potato fries comes in one order, so you may consider splitting it. The sweet potato fries are soft, dense, and not very salty. The aforementioned huge onion rings consist of mostly batter. Service is fine. The menu says to be patient since all burgers are cooked to order. On a busy Saturday afternoon, it did not take long for our orders to be cooked. Overall, I give BGR - The Burger Joint 2.5 stars, generously rounded up to 3. Parking in the Atlantic Station deck is free for the first two hours.

First off, Whole 30 compliant!!!!! Late lunch while shopping and the joint was slamming. Ordered a burger with mushrooms and grilled onions in a lettuce wrap with a side salad. Delish!!! The hubby seemed to enjoy his bacon cheeseburger and fries!! Great value for the servings.

After a shopping trip at Atlantic Station for a Friday lunch break, my coworkers and I decided to grab a quick bite at a place we've all never tried before--The Burger Joint. When we arrived, there were barely any patrons in the restaurant so we thought we were lucky to beat the lunch crowd and quick be in and out. Boy, were we wrong. The ordering process was fairly efficient. There's a large menu posted on the wall, but when you walk to the counter, you see a sign for their Box Set special, available Monday - Friday. For less than $10, you get a burger, regular fries or side salad, and a soda. What a bargain! I ordered, grabbed my soda, and sat patiently waiting for my food. My coworkers and I started noticing the line growing longer and longer, and perhaps they were short staffed or not efficient, but our orders took at least 20 minutes before being called. Our orders took so long that one of my coworkers had to eventually request her meal to go as she would be late for a meeting. When my food was finally called, I really enjoyed it. The burger was hot, fresh, tasty and delicious and the fries were also very, very tasty! Aside from the wait, my only other qualm about this place is the sauce and drink station, awkwardly positioned in the area people pick up their food. The area is cramped and hard to maneuver, and I had to wait for two people to finish grabbing everything they needed before I could sneak my way in to grab a straw as there is no way all of us would fit in there. Other than that, the food was good and the staff is friendly. Not sure that I would return here for lunch, but I'd definitely go back at some point.

This is my second time coming to The Burger Joint and they have yet to disappoint. I came alone but it's definitely a place where you can take your significant other on a date or just enjoy with friends. This time I ordered from the "Create Your Own" part of the menu. I had the Bacon Cheeseburger with pepper jack cheese, mayo, mustard, ketchup. The burger was made well done with a side of fries. The fries aren't the best but they compliment the burger to an extent. The burgers are always made fresh and the wait is typically no longer than 10 minutes unless it's busy.

YUMS. Another burger joint, literally. Order in line, and get food at the table. This one is in the heart of Midtown. Not your dress-up restaurant, more like fast food type place. Get the Wellington Burger. SO GOOD YOUR BODY MELTS EATING IT. Pahahahaa! The Wellington - Roasted mushrooms, caramelized onions, garlic with a touch of mustard seed and blue cheese all atop our burger. Served on a fresh, buttery-toasted brioche bun with our mojo sauce. Tip: Don't get the milkshakes. Nothing special. Go next door to Which Wich and get a Chocolate Oreo Milkshake. I PROMISE YOU, you'll msg me and thank me later. ;)

This is expensive fast food without the drive thru. My burger was small, under-dressed and dry. As you can see from the picture my asparagus was underwhelming.

This joint is in Atlantic station right below where I work, this time around I tried the Triple D which was pretty good but be prepared to drop close to $15 for a combo. I would recommend treating yourself at least once!

Great burger spot in a cool area downtown. Staff was very friendly. The menu prices were reasonable for the portions and the garlic fries are a MUST TRY!!
