Burgermaster

I can’t say much about the atmosphere as they were in the middle of construction. They kept the triple X part of the building which I thought was very respectful. I’ve always loved BurgerMasters since I was very young. Their milkshakes are absolutely amazing!! Right now, this location is working out of two trailers and is only a drive-through but worth going to.

Absolutely the best "fast food" burger I've ever eaten!! I cannot comment on the rest of the food I have only ordered the double bacon burger. Fresh incredible ingredients every time I go. The staff has always been friendly and kind! My review is for the burger but I will say I have gone six times and they have only got my burger order correct one time which is pretty terrible. And the worst part they hand you a credit card machine asking for a tip at a drive-thru food truck. I absolutely do not like that especially being a chef for the last 15 years. Very excited to see the ordering system get better once the building opens!

Equivalent to Dairy Queen burgers on their 2 for $6 menu, but DQ is slightly better tasting and a lot cheaper. For the price it should be really good. Not sure what all the other reviewers ate. I’m betting most are friends/family of the owners or bot accounts. That’s the only explanation. The only to-go burger I’ve had around this area, that is worth that price, is in maple valley.

Burger Master is appropriately named. Over the years they have stayed consistent with their quality, and portions. In these times of expense, and shrinkage, you still get what you pay for. I especially like the perfect tomatoes on their burgers. We are in Issaquah where this location is open during construction. All of the staff is super friendly. This is the only food app that I have, and I find that it is generous with points earned for reward meals. This place is awesome!

If you’re looking for good juicy burger and fat onion rings, this is the spot. They aren’t operating out of the main building yet, but they are dishing out delicious burgers nonetheless. I can’t wait to see what they do with this place in the years to come!

Food took forever and they got our order wrong twice. We sat outside and they clearly prioritize drive through vs in-person. Onion rings were $5.50, and came with 5 rings. Over $1 per ring. Shake are tiny and expensive. Burgers were fine, but overpriced for what you get. Nothing you couldn't get at any other fast food joint for half the price. One of our burgers had the stem/entire top of a grilled onion. It wasn't the chewable part... Bad experience and subpar food.

Can't rate atmosphere since location is under construction. Ordered burgers, fries, a diet soda, and 2 shakes. The mix on the soda was bad (not enough syrup), fries tasted stale, and both shakes tasted vanilla even though one was supposed to be blackberry. But the burgers were very good. So stick with the burgers there and you can't go wrong.

We love their burgers and monthly rotating shakes. Can't wait for the renovation! Now what will really make it shine is if they can sell the old XXX Rootbeer with some sort of float option too.

- Went while still under construction so drive thru only. Had to wait maybe 10 min or so but food came out fresh, hot, and delicious - Food 5/5! The original burgermaster is really good. $8.50 for the burger, then we also got fries. Fixings on the burger are free, don't forget those. Jalapeños were yummy. - We just parked on the side and ate in our cars. - They said will be opening both an indoor and drive up so will definitely come back once construction is over! - Love that everything is compostable including the cups to the straws. THANK YOU!

This is not your regular Burgermaster. While the food is good, the experience and service are absolutely terrible. It's painful to see an iconic establishment turn into a disaster such as this. 1) You can't park and be served like in other Burgermasters. You have to drive, more like weave, through a maze, in order to place your to-go order. 2) I did not check my order of 3 burgers after picking it up. I reached home, only to realize I had been given only 2 burgers, but had been charged for 3. My first experience of Burgermaster in Issaquah has been extremely poor. I love the other locations. Pity to see that an iconic establishment like XXX has been reduced to a dark, dingy unwelcoming, badly managed place. Maybe they opened too soon, before getting all their ducks in a row. Maybe they should have waited to complete the renovation and open when ready. Do better. I'm hoping to see improvements soon.

We wanted to grab food quickly for dinner as my boyfriend has been studying for his work so he wants to relax. I saw Burgermaster is a neat, little burger joint that only has locations up around this area so we decided to try them out. We placed a take out order on their app as if you sign in then you get access to free small fries (or you can save your points for something else). We didn't notice the take out sign as the rare sun came up and the sun rays made their sign extremely hard to see. We followed the signs to the drive thru as most often when we order from fast food places, we can get that at the drive thru. Now this is where the biggest issue started. We arrived at the order window and the employee greeted us monotonal tone. We told them that we have a pick up order, he says that there is a ramp to pick up the order. Now there was no way to get out of the drive thru line and my boyfriend spotted a ramp near where we were. I went out to grab it so he can move forward in the line and as I arrived to the open door of their kitchen, a much more polite employee told me that the pick up window was on the other side. I went back embarrassed and got back in the car and we were about one car away from the window. I asked my boyfriend if he could just ask the drive thru window if we can pick up our food there as the way everyone pointed seemed to be near the window? But then a rude female employee once again said that they have a designated pick up window and insisted that we go there to pick. Finally, we're out of the line and I can walk up this hidden ramp and I see the sign that is completely unreadable due to sunlight rays that is the pick up for takeout orders. The employee who greets me at that window was professional and kind and told me that they were out of the blackberry milkshake and that I can chose a different milkshake flavor so I went with birthday cake. The current state of this restaurant is that they are in construction of trying to have a brick and mortar in the future. The kitchen floor looked terribly messy when I did peek in from both sides of their space which was concerning. There were pieces of different ingredients, fries, and other spills of condiments everywhere. I do hope things improve as they do have an actual restaurant but I don't know if we will return. Now onto the food and milkshake. My boyfriend got the burgermelt and added grilled onions. I got the mushroom burger and added grilled onions, jalapenos, and burger sauce. They have free fixin's you can add on like Five Guys and premium ones that you can add one for bacon, gluten-free buns, etc. So we got fries but it didn't come with any sauce so that was disappointing but they were decent and not too salty. We said that it reminded us of how McDonald's fries used to taste. The burger itself was decent and put together well. They were much bigger than I had thought too. However, it wasn't anything to really write about or worth a second visit. I would consider coming back to try the chicken burger and I know at other locations they have fish and chips or fish burgers. The milkshakes were thick and the perfect accompaniment to the meal. One of my favorite parts of the birthday cake milkshake was the amount of sprinkles put in. My boyfriend got a pretty good Oreo milkshake. I wish on the app that you can pick your sauces for the fries and that you can chose when they start your order. I also wished that they made a small note on how to pick up the order as well. We almost were out of luck on picking up our order as there was no space to park but as we were getting out of the drive thru, someone was just leaving. Service was a mixed bag of good and bad and the cleanliness of the place made me question the quality of my food. The overall taste of the food and drinks were good but definitely not a memorable visit.

So we just moved from California and when we craved a burger there, we just went to In-n-Out. Trying to find an equivalent here has been difficult. Cravings hit though so decided to give this place a test. Honestly wasn't expecting much. Pleasantly surprised. We just drove through and took it home to eat. Not sure if there was seating on-site or not. Seemed like its mainly a drive-thru operation. They do have an app though. I'll have to explore that next time. Double Baconmaster w the works (4): First thing I noticed was how heavy this thing was. It's got some heft to it. I would normally get a triple-triple at in-n-out. This double might be the equivalent. Costs more here but you do get a bigger burger. Everything was pretty good. I do like the works option which is all the free toppings. Bacon I don't think was necessary but it was a nice touch. Double Mushroom Burger (3.5): Not too shabby but wasn't too special either. My wife enjoyed it though. She loves mushrooms though. If you like mushrooms, this is a decent option. Pales in comparison to my double baconmaster though. Fries (2): Honestly I thought these fries weren't that great. Almost like In-n-Out fries which is not a compliment. I ordered these extra crispy and even then it was just barely crispy. They must use real potatoes like In-n-out or something. They just aren't that good. So the burgers are decent and you get a good sized burger. Fries aren't worth it in my book. I think I'd like to try their shakes next time though. Overall, solid 3.5 rounded up. I think its still a decent burger joint and we'll likely be back with our very specific preferences. Definitely glad we tried it though!

My little sister is obsessed with Burgermaster. Whenever she comes home from college, swinging by the Issaquah drive through is at the top of her list. Her go-to is a Burgermaster with Bacon, a side of fries with Boom Boom Sauce and a small peanut butter shake. She says it's very yummy; it's fresh and they use a delectable sauce. While I haven't liked any of the sandwiches I've eaten at Burgermaster, I agree that their Boom Boom sauce is fantastic and love eating it with fries. We can't wait for Burgermaster to have a full-fledged store in Issaquah.

Easy drive through while they continue building! It's a smaller menu, but still as delicious as ever. The creamsicle cake was amazing. Upon entering, follow the signs that lead you to the back of the construction area. It feels wrong, it's not. You will loop around to the front for the line, makes things pretty seamless. There are a few parallel parking spots onsite to pull in and eat, but we went and found a shadier spot down the road. Pay attention to posted parking rules!

For now the Issaquah restaurant is a drive up as they do updates. The person taking your order is always very friendly & the food is always so good love the burgers & shakes

Got the plain cheeseburger add extra cheese. Did not disappoint. Patty was good, bun wasn't too dry. The onion rings were crispy and the fries were. Not the best burger I ever had but nothing wrong with it.

Used the super-long drive-thru to order my Baconmaster, fries, & tartar sauce. As good as I remember. Limited menu until main store restored. Quick service. Order taker double checked my order with me; food came out quickly. Liked the rock & roll while waiting in line!. No pix because I scarffed it down.

If Bill Gates frequents here it must be a legend so I finally checked it out! A drive-in burger spot that has super tight parking but loved how the staff comes out to your car and there's even a little window tray to hold your food (although if the food is sitting outside won't it get cold faster)? We got the 'shroom burger and it was hefty, juicy and very solid at $8. The onion rings came in a 7-pack and was fried perfectly without being too greasy either. It was a fun dine-in for someone who's never experienced a drive-in before and the food was solid too!

Pricey for what you get, and a server who presumed what he should not have. Located in the old XXX location, now functioning out of trailers, this isn't the usual Burgermaster drive-in (at least not yet). They've got a limited menu, a drive-thru line (which moves slowly), and an awkward situation if you want to park and eat. But the reason for my 3-star rating is the inappropriate action taken by the fellow who was taking orders / handling payments. He rounded my purchase up $0.84 for "Round Up & Give" without asking me. I didn't see it at the time, but looking back at the receipt, this pissed me off. It just wasn't his decision to make. And then there's the value -- at $24 for a double-cheeseburger (Burgermelt) with mushrooms, a fry and a drink + a 20% tip (which I now regret), that's a pricey fast-food lunch.

We had to try Burgermaster Issaquah as they prepare for their permanent location- so good! We went through their food truck drive through & we were greeted by a helpful employee to take our order for takeout. We got 3 baconators which are 2 beef patties, cheese, bacon, lettuce & tomato, 2 fries, a Diet Coke & a chocolate milkshake. OMG - so delicious! The burgers were so fresh & flavorful, the fries so hot & tasty & the chocolate shake so tasty! So happy to have them in Issaquah! We'll be back!

Ain't no burger like a burgermaster burger! The employees were very kind and accommodating when i wanted to my order my go-to, the mushroom swiss burger, despite it not being on the menu. They're just a drive thru at the moment but the food is just as delicious and served quickly as at any of their other locations. Great to have another one of these on the east side and excited to see how they will revamp the old Triple X!

Not much I can say about Burgermaster at the moment they are just selling burgers on the outside of the restaurant. The inside is not completed. I guess they will be completed sometime in July. They bought the whole building that the old triple X in Issaquah owned and operated for quite a while . I don't know how long triplets had the building, but the four years that I have ate there from time to time they only operated the front portion of the building. The rest was a tattoo parlor and some other businesses. Burgermaster claims that they are going to have a drive-through like the old time triple X had we'll see on time but for now the food is three burgers and fries and some drinks

Visiting from Texas, drove through, picked up 2 burgers and fries...the food was awesome!! Fresh, hot and the fries were some of the best we've had. Honk honk all the way from Texas!! PS. Staff was also super friendly and joked around with us! Awesome place.

Hate to write this but just had dinner ar the soon t be new Burgermaster in Issaquah. 1st time to the Issaquah location, service was slow, burgers were warm, fries were old, tough and hadn't been hot for a while. The few outdoor tables were located adj to a kitchen exhaust fan. I get they are under construction but you would expect them to make sure the food was above average and not way below. I have eaten at other Burgermasters for over 50 years. This was hands down the worst meal I have had at any of their restaurant. Looking in the window when placing the order I was surprised by the mess, that should have been my clue to go elsewher but unfortunately I didn. Live and learn. The raspberry shake for $6.50 was good.

Truthfully I was never impressed by XXX so I'm happy with the change, for starters. I realize it may be sentimental for some people it's just not for me. Right now this is just a soft opening if u will but it's what burgers should be. Simple but comforting and tasty. I feel like a lot of places do too much and then charge you through the nose. I'm excited to try more when it fully opens.

Nothing beats a trip to Burgermaster. While they're operating out of their mobile kitchen at the Issaquah location, the food is just as fresh and tasty. Service was speedy and friendly. When my kiddo requests milkshakes, there's no doubt where we are going!

A few years ago, I wrote Burgermaster and asked them to take a look at the closed Sonic location in Renton. It was high traffic and had space for 30 car hop vehicles. I received a response that said they are a small business and need to be careful with expansion. A year later, they announced their intent to take over XXX just months after it closed. I could tell by their initial response the issue with Renton was probably more about the customer base, but so be it. Your business, your choice. This location is currently drive through only, it will have a dining room, but that is a rarity. Decades ago, Crossroads had a location with Car Hop and dine inn and it didn't do well. We ate there many times and were the only ones inside. The food doesn't taste like it used to, to me. The burgers don't taste as juicy. I don't know if that is the beef or how they cook it, but just like Miner's in Yakima, it just doesn't impress like it once did. The children have taken over from the original owner and I don't like the changes. The combos are gone, everything is ala carte which basically means no deals. Burgermater is basically fast food, but it cost more then Red Robin, because at the dirty bird, your fries are included and not only that both them and your drinks are bottomless. I guess when you consider that Covid killed the Issaquah Red Robin, they are due for a better burger, but the best burger Issaquah ever had to offer was back when Gulliver's was in business. Issaquah has money so many won't bat an eye at the pricing or structure here, but as someone that grew up with Burgermaster, specifically the combo meal to see it gone tells me the focus is on profit and not people. Best news is Raising Canes is coming to Renton, so someone sees the value in the population and I expect it to draw attention to an area looking or better food choices. I need to make my way to Des Moines, they got a place called Burger Meister. Reviews are strong on flavor, but poor on price. ***UPDATE*** Since ownership has commented on my reviews, let me state facts. It's true, 60% of places I have visited could have been better. In addition, 1/3 of places I have reviewed are no longer in business, so it's clear to me, places that are not impressing the public, don't stay open. I am however happy to hear that a south sound location is still on the table. The Dick's in Kent appears to be thriving and places like Pick-Quick and Frugals have also built a brand. So as I continue to focus on bringing honest, detailed reviews to the public. I hope you remember the legacy of Burgermaster going forward, because I could not imagine giving a low score to the meals I used to get from all of your locations 20 years ago.

Stopped in for a pre opening event. Everything on the menu was 50% off and all of the proceeds when to a fund that supports Burgermaster employees in need. I ordered a Burgermaster, fries and shake. I have to say this is the best food I've ever had at a burgermaster. The burger was perfectly cooked, the bun was nicely toasted and the fries were on point. This location is drive through only which I don't think any other locations are but they seem to really pull it off well. The staff is friendly and service was quick. Overall great experience.

Got a bacon master and mushroom for me and my girlfriend, the taste is ok. But after eating the burger we both got diarrhea.

What a major disappointment at the new Burger master in Issaquah. I will give them a break and assume it's because they're working out of a so-called trailer or don't have the right grill in place. I've been there now 4 to 5 times and the food is not good and either is the hamburger!!, fries, and the service. Well, we'll see what happens for right now they've lost this family. We have other good choices to choose from.

I can count on Burgermaster for the perfect burger. We order online and pickup and the burgers are always hot.

Quick late dinner at Issaquah location and excited to see progress going on to the build out! Food always as expected just great. You never go wrong choosing Burgermaster and our points are piling up for the arrival of our grand kids. Happy Summer

The Sunday evening crew didn't seem like they cared much about the customer. I tipped 15% upfront and regretted it when I got to the pick up window. We asked for only ketchup on our hamburgers when we took our order from the gentleman in the front, but when we went to the pick up Window and asked for a ketchup on the side for our french fries, we were told they were all out of ketchup. A minute later, I mentioned we only want to catch up on our burgers, and if that was how they were going to come out. The guy at the window told me they were out of ketchup, replied with. Yes, there's just ketchup on the burgers, but we don't have time to put ketchup into sides containers. The staff inside could be heard the entire time talking about their weekend another non-related work. There was nobody in line besides us, so I didn't understand why they didn't have time to put ketchup into to your containers. We left and later opened our hamburgers wanted to find they put mustard on all of them, except for one had ketchup. So unfortunately, we didn't feel very valued as customers. This is sad because we love the one in Kirkland.

Superb burgers that are outstanding quality particularly when you consider the price. Fries and onion rings are also great and the strawberry shake is awesome. Service and care from the team always hits the same standard n

My family went to the drive thru for dinner, it was our first time trying Burger Master, and we were very disappointed. The whole burger was just pretty sad and flavorless, I felt like I was eating a $2.50 middle school cafeteria burger. So many better options in Issaquah area, even a homemade frozen burger would be so much better. No one in my family of 5 was able to get more than halfway through their burger because it was just so bad. Do not at all recommend.

Delicious burgers, the bacon master is amazing, but a bit expensive. Looking forward to when the restaurant is finished.

I have never been to a Burgermaster before, but the sign has always tempted me, so my partner and I decided to try it out tonight. Prices weren't awful, but a bit more than I like to spend for a burger and fries. We decided to get some onion rings as well for $5.50. Well we received our food & I pulled out the onion rings to see there were 4 onion rings, meaning we spent $1.38 per onion ring, insane profit margins. Was super disappointed and probably the biggest restaurant disappointment I've experienced in a while. Burger was fine, couldn't taste the meat much just the mustard. Fries were a bit soggy, but tasted similar to McDonalds, so not awful. Overall I won't be back and contemplating going back through the drive through to get a refund on the onion rings.

Five Stars! They are operating under very difficult conditions so ordering is a bit confusing and awkward for the time being. For this, they deserve some patience and understanding. We willl likely wait until they are in full,operation before returning. BUT, the burger experience was outstanding! I could NOT BELIEVE the quality and size of their basic burger! I can't imagine ordering the double burger! Ingredients were 100% fresh and tasty. If you have fond memories of the old time hamburger places of your youth you will be transported back to that time! What a great addition to our town!

Great start to introducing yourself to the area. Can't wait for the full location to open once ready!!! Garden burger was great!!!

Unlike Bellevue this is strictly a beat down version with takeout only operating from food truck environment operating from the former XXX drive in building with no where to park. If you're expecting anything like Bellevue I suggest sticking with their Bellevue store which is great. I guess it'd work ok if you live close by.

So great to be able to get Burgermaster in Issaquah! Drive through line that went around store was easy and quick and got my favorite burger, shake and fries. They even had treats for my dogs! So glad you guys are here!

We've been about 3-4 times now to this location, and it's been excellent every time. As a downtown Issaquah resident, this has been a nice addition to our central core, as I feel it's the best burger at its price point in the area. For $8, their standard cheeseburger is great, with fresh-tasting veggies and meat. I love tomatoes on my burger and often order extra, but I've found out the hard way that tomatoes are often kept past their prime, and can quickly make a burger a soggy, tomatoey mess; these were clearly fresh. The service is quick, though perhaps that's partly because people are still realizing it's here- I believe it will pick up significantly this summer. Overall, very nice addition to our little city, and we plan to come back often.

One of the best burgers around! Used to go to Bellevue location, now that they have an issaquah location, I'm going to be going all the time!

I think they are doing great with what they have which is essentially a small trailer to cook out of. Drive thru accommodations only. Kind of dark and hard to navigate..just go slow when it's dark outside. Employees were super friendly and professional. I do hate that their credit card reader asks for tips. Come on now folks. This is FAST FOOD. Sit down restaurant where you take my order at a table, bring my food and clean up after me I can see requesting tips but drive thru? Beyond tacky. Besides the tip request I was happy with the ordering and the service I received. Which is a Far cry from the service I get from other fast food places here in Issaquah that the employees if they choose to say hi to you, thank you or whatever...is usually in very broken, barely legible English. The golden arches being the worst. Every single employee speaks broken English with many speaking no English at all. Rude as well. Like you somehow ruined their day by daring to make them earn their salary. Anyways, Burgermaster is off to a stellar start if you ask me. Burgers were on point. Shakes were thick and delicious. Prices were what you can expect during our out of control inflation (kind of obscene tho that all I got was two meals, three shakes and an extra fry and it was over $50. Insane fast food is barely affordable these days but I won't hold that against Burgermaster as the prices are reflective of what we see everywhere else. Sad though) but the service was great and all employees were easy to understand and acted glad that I was there. Can't wait for the renovations to be complete and they are fully opened. Welcome to Issaquah Burgermaster!
