Elevation Burger

I'd frequent the BEST one in Hyattsville. They moved the one from National Harbor & replaced it with a Silver Diner 😒. Known for its Burgers (Classic, Vegan, Vegetarian, etc) & (Olive Oil) Fries. Tried this one's in a VA. Shopping Center. Greeted with a smile. There were about six people behind the counter to take orders/serve. The food came out quickly. All food was made fresh to order. Good burgers with PLENTY of toppings to choose from. The fries are always great when hot. (& they were). Their Milkshakes must be good now. Literally every customer there ordered one. Atmosphere was more quiet than expected.

This is my go to burger spot for the last few years! Easily my favorite burgers in the area! They are very fast and friendly. I always call and place a phone order when I am 5 minutes away. My food is always fresh and ready as soon as I get there! The burgers always taste amazing. I always get the elevation burger. 100% would recommend to everyone!

I’m so grateful to have a healthy burger option for me and my family - Including gluten-free options. The staff here is always very friendly and are quick to make our food. I know the fries aren’t for everyone, but we absolutely love them! Milkshakes are delicious too! Plus, they’re offering discounts for federal workers right now!

I really wanted to like it. The staff was very friendly. However, olive oil isn’t used for fries for a reason. They taste strongly of oil and don’t fry well, obviously. I didn’t end up eating much of my meal.

This place is just ok at best. The burgers are a bit dry, fries are ok, the saving grace is the milkshakes. The ordering is always very frictionous (they just need to have kiosks - why do I want to spell out my order to a human, just for them to screw up) and there is no app. I am sad to say I come here a lot out of ease and not of quality food I want to consume. Wish a 5 guys or another premium burger joint would move in.

The service was so quick even though it was busy (6pm on a Tuesday), and the food was delicious as always! Went with a lettuce wrap, which they do very well, and tasty fries!

Ordered through their app, two 100% organic beef burgers with cheese, pickles, wheat bun, jalapeños & their special sauce and man where these GOOD!🤤🍔 Also ordered their coffee and vanilla shake with strawberry and mango and they where delicious!🧋🧋 5 stars overall!

One the best burger joints in the area. Burgers are good in size, with tasty organic meat and lots of customizations. Being originally from Spain, I just love that they fry the French fries in olive oil. My son loved the kids menu. Service is fast either ordering on-line or at the counter and they are very nice. Seating is somehow limited, but they also have a few tables outside to enjoy in good weather

Neighborhood staple!! I have been coming here for as long as I can remember. The burgers & fries have a distinct taste that I love--I think it's the olive oil they use. It doesn't feel as heavy as a normal burger but still keeps the flavor. I like their cheese too. Their fries are so crispy--exactly how I like them... probably some of my favorite fries of all time. The interior is fine--good for a quick and casual bite. They used to sell all these milkshake flavors for years (I loved the key lime)... they got rid of them a couple of years ago and now only have vanilla/strawberry/chocolate... boo! Overall, a reliable burger spot with a distinct taste.

My pal Declan and I decided to eat here for dinner. However, we were utterly disappointed by our food. The man at the front managed to interpret a cheeseburger as a byo veggie burger and gave us three fries instead of three chicken tenders. I'm not gonna make this one star cause that's OD, but mind your own business you have to do better.

First time back at elevation burger in a long time and had a good experience here. I opted for the Elevation Burger, fries and a soda. Food came up within about five minutes and was pretty good. The Elevation Burger is prepared in the smashburger style and reminded me a bit of In-N-Out's double double. The fries are shoestring style and aside from being a little overdone and oversalted were pretty decent. I will say, I wish the fries came in half portions because a single order is a lot for one person. Overall it was an ok burger experience.

I ordered 2 burger and moved fast to work. And this burger without cheese! No tomatoes, nothing! For $8 each! Just beef and bread! Worst burger ever!

Elevation Burger is a decent burger joint. I came here after a friend had an extremely specific craving for Elevation Burger (while we were at Georgetown around hundreds of eateries.) So, we headed over to Elevation Burger and I had huge expectations for my first visit. The BBQ bacon burger was filling but didn't feel as tasty as some of the other "guys". It was good, but didn't have that it factor. Maybe it needed to be a little more juicy/greasy/soft? .. Not sure. I also got the elevation fries which were cooked really well. The milkshake was very good. They did not have the coffee option available, so I got the chocolate. Didn't miss a beat. I can say that the place was clean and the customer service was helpful.

Food and service very good. Facility was very clean Wait time after order placed wasn't long

The beef and chicken in their meals are organic and the beef is grass-fed. Also, the fries are cooked in olive oil. They have vegan options for those who are interested in those. They serve beef burgers, chicken burgers, milkshakes, and more. Service is pretty friendly and wait times are not usually too long.

I see a few haters here. And some pretty useless reviews. And some racism, oddly. Weird. Boo! E-Burger, as we call it, is a healthy alternative. If you compare the nutrition numbers to McD's, it's a walkover. E-Burger is far and away the healthy choice. Your body does love to eat fat and carbs. Also to smoke and drink alcohol. Better to eat with your brain. An Elevation Burger wrapped in lettuce with jalapenos and grilled onions is a thing of beauty. Truly. More expensive than McD's to be sure. And E-Burger does take 10 minutes. It's made fresh. If you don't have 10 minutes, don't go. You should probably also avoid nice restaurants downtown for the same reason. Complaining at the 11 minute mark is considered to be in bad taste. My record for McDonald's on Langston Blvd is 25 minutes, including the line. The fries are fresh and delicious. You can watch them cut them from fresh potatoes. Not frozen. Cooked in olive oil.... This place is definitely a notch above. I don't think it is quite as tasty as Five Guys, but way healthier. And covers the other chains in every possible way. It is pricey. Be ready at the register. You do get what you pay for.

Needed to grab a quick bite. Popped to Elevation Burger. I just ordered the signature burger. You have the option of building your own burger. They have 3 plant based burgers including the Impossible burger. Plus, they have chicken options and shakes. Decent burger, nice service. They have outdoor seating.

Came here with three of my coworkers for a quick lunch. Only my second time going to an Elevation Burger so I was curious to give it another shot. Saw that they were now offering impossible burger patties and I was curious so I asked for the Elevation Burger with impossible subbed for the beef and a small order of fresh fries. Keep in mind that the impossible substitution is an up charge. I was surprised when I saw on my receipt that my burger was $11+ instead of $7~ like on the menu. The impossible burger had no price listed. The burger itself was a lot better than I expected. Juicy, tasted great with the elevation sauce and the toppings seemed fresh. Great with the potato bun. The fries were small but I assume they were cut from smaller potatoes anyway but they were extremely salty. Not sure if there is an option to have no salt or not but I definitely recommend doing that. Overall the experience was alright but being that my bill was over $16 without a drink, I wouldn't call it a go-to for lunch.

Needed to grab a burger for my husband and ended up here. First time at this location. The cashier was pleasant while taking my order. I had to wait over 10 minutes for my food. There were only 4 workers in the store on 4/21. One employee was literally on his cell phone while working. A Latino guy came in to pick up a door dash order. The cashier then gave her full attention to him as she attempted to find his order. She wasn't very successful, so she got assisted by another employee. Meanwhile, other customer orders were completed and put on the counter. Unfortunately, the cashier failed to stop helping the door dash worker (who had come into the restaurant after several other customers) and serve the other customers their orders. When I received my order, over 10 minutes had passed by already. Customer service refresher training should be required. Essentially, your employees need to put their best foot forward and represent your company well. The company that employees work for invests a lot of resources into building a strong brand, and employees represent that brand whenever they're in the public eye. A company's reputation isn't solely based on the products it manufactures. How customers are treated plays a part in their overall opinion of the company and what they say about it to their friends and family. Having good customer service can set the company you work for apart from competitors and keep customers coming back. This message should be relayed to the employees and management/owner at this location.

Incredibly overpriced junk. The burger just was not good, the meat is tasteless and greasy. The little taste it did have was not good or taste like beef. The elevation sauce had no flavor and the burger fell apart when eating it. It was just not good. Fries, while hot and fresh, were greasy and also tasteless. Oh and the lemonade had an odd flavor too. Burger, fries and lemonade? Just over $18. McDonald's (which is awful) is better quality and a heck of a lot cheaper then Elevation Burger. Pre-pandemic, Elevation was great, but I guess they have cut corners now, while raising their prices. In one good thing, the staff were friendly. But I won't be back ever again to see them.

I'm a little shocked by the negative reviews I'm seeing. I've been going to elevation burger for a decade and have never had a bad meal. The service isn't as fast as some other burger places but the food is fresh and the milkshakes are great.

Thrilled by Elevation Burger. They recently added the Impossible patty to their menu, so I would think this would bring in a lot of new customers. Their standard double patty Impossible Burger is quite amazing. Honestly at this point I can't even remember what ground beef tastes like, but I can say that I don't miss it. This has become my spot for meatless burgers, when I want something quick and BK just won't do.

I remember first visiting Elevation Burger in February of 2010 around the time they first arrived to the Lee Harrison Shopping Center in Arlington. I recalled the claims of, "a burger that's above and beyond good" which stems from their organic and grass-fed beef. The result was a meaty and beefy burger that can hold its own in the competitive burger scene. Flash forward to today and after a visit for a lunch to-go order, I was surprised to see so many recent subpar reviews, particularly noting their service. For me personally the food and service isn't any different in 2018 as it was back in 2010. For me it comes down to the food. Today you can order from Elevation Burger online and through services like Uber Eats, which means you can find yourself avoiding the counter all together. The burgers are large, double patty monsters that will satisfy any appetite. On this visit I ordered the Swiss and Mushroom and it came out perfect. Any room you have left after a burger will be taken up by their "famous fries," which certainly deserve all the attention. There is absolutely something different with cooking the shoestring sized potatoes in olive oil. The fries come out crispy and light. A perfect sidekick to a burger that is certainly above your standard hamburger.

1.) ELEVATION BURGER : ARLINGTON, VA :: (A) five guys : east coast (B) mcdonald's : anywhere (C) in-n-out : west coast (D) shake shack : new york, ny (E) a stellar combination of the best of both C and D The answer, of course, is E. From cooking their fries in olive oil to must-order milkshakes made with real ice cream, Elevation's doing a whole lot of things different from and better than your ordinary hamburger hut. These guys specialize in organic, grass-fed burgers that are juicy and especially good with cheddar cheese and Elevation sauce. And if you have kids, bring 'em here because no one else will notice if they're loud and playing with their food because most every table will be filled with other parents worrying about their own little monsters. I was accompanied by an especially spirited four-year-old on my last visit and couldn't help thinking it was a perfect pick for us. In my book, Elevation ranks right up there with Shake Shack and In-N-Out and those are comparisons I do not make lightly!

I came here with my friend because she saw an advertisement for the restaurant on Instagram since they started selling Impossible burgers and she is vegan. So on one cold weekday night, we drove over here for dinner and fries. The place was packed with families who were enjoying a meal together for dinner, or kids hanging out after sports practice. She ordered a regular impossible burger with no cheese, and I ordered an Impossible burger in a lettuce wrap with cheese. We also ordered a side of fries to share between us. Both of these orders were pretty good and I am happy with what I received. The Impossible burgers were cooked fresh and came out in a timely manner and the fries were great too. I appreciated that the lettuce was very crispy and fresh, too. I also really like that this place is allergy-friendly.

TERRIBLE. I ordered from them through Postmates. They do not package appropriately for delivery. The burger was so soggy it leaked through the paper it was wrapped in. They sat the burger directly on top of an open container of fries, so then the fries became soggy. The burger was not good at all. The egg was completely dried up. Definitely not made fresh and the meat had an off taste to it. Definitely not good quality meat for sure. I also ordered the pineapple shake. They didn't send the shake with the driver! He was kind enough to go all the way back and get it for me though. Sadly, it was also not tasty.

YUMMO! I love this place, the burgers are farm raised and organic, I love saying that! I think the burgers are delicious, much less greasy and less heavy than Five Guys, which I have replaced with Elevation Burger. They also have a frequent guest card that I am a sucker for, so for every 7 patties you get on your burger (some burgers come with one patty, some two) you get a free patty/single patty burger. Their "elevation sauce" is a great addition to the burger too, which is similar to a big mac/thousand island type sauce. Only downside are the fries. They are fresh and freshly cut, but they're too thin and maybe also not salty enough. Good stuff, will be going back again when I'm in the mood for a burger, which is often :)

I usually eat BGR because their burgers are incredible but some coworkers were ordering from here and I thought I would join. Big mistake. I ordered a single with cheese, bacon and fried egg. I received a single with rubbery cheese, lettuce, pickles, onions and some sort of sauce. I ordered the fries extra crispy and they were overly greasy and limp. The milkshake was delicious though. My biggest concern with the burger is that you have no idea what someone may or may not be allergic to and you're exposing them to something that could be dangerous.

I read the reviews and said to myself, "I need to finally try Elevation Burger. I'm here. If they're nice to me I'll stay." They were nice. I was greeted upon entry and my order was taken without incident. The meal came out exactly as ordered. Either they fixed whatever problem they had or what I suspect is that people came in indecisive. Don't be indecisive here. I think most of the staff does not speak English natively and so may have trouble answering questions. But if you know what you want, you're good. So onto the burger. It tasted like a slightly better Five Guys at around the same price point but with different burger options. I would say the burger meat is solidly above average, maybe a little underseasoned but plenty beefy. The hot pepper relish is not at all hot in any way but really made the burger come together by providing moisture and tang. I highly recommend that. Otherwise, Elevation is a solid burger, and I'm glad I defied the negative reviews and stopped in.

I happened to be craving burgers today and I decided to try out Elevation Burger for the first time. I LOVE spicy food, so I went for the combo of a fiery burger and an order of fiery fries. Burger = amazing. Fantastic burger, love from first bite. Definitely would have eaten a second if it wasn't for the guilt. Fries = alright. Mine just came as sort of a clump of toppings, which is to be expected I guess. The burger is definitely the main appeal, and I'd say one that's definitely worth it.

The place is decent the chicken sandwich was good but not great, the fries were small and were soggy and the chicken tenders were small for their price

I don't eat burgers but I like this place for being allergy friendly. They don't cook in a way that will cross contaminate the food, which makes is a good option for those with severe allergies. They offer a nice military discount and it's already affordable for handmade burgers. The milkshakes are handscooped and thick. Every burger can be customized! I

Do yourself a favor and don't go to this location. They have changed their staff drastically, and my order has never been made right since. After receiving my wrong order, I took it back up to the counter to tell them it was wrong. The female cashier stared at me like she didn't know how to fix it. She then asks another female in the back how to fix it... the other female threw a burger on the grill and pulled it off quickly and gave it to me. It was clear it wasn't cooked properly because I trusted her (huge mistake) and ate the burger she gave me. There was no salt, no flavor, no nothing.. I could instantly tell right away. She basically rushed it and tried to give it to me so I would leave them alone and go. I now had two burgers in my possession, both wrong, both gross.. and both I tossed right in the trash outside.

Overpriced and VERY UNHEALTHY FOOD masquerading as good-for-you eating. It's all wrapped up in "natural" imagery and language, but WAKE UP people... Nutritionally, this food is virtually identical to McDonalds, at twice the price. Eating a fried cheeseburger, french fries, and milkshake made out of grass-fed beef and organic potatoes will still lead to childhood obesity, heart disease, and all the same illnesses caused by all the other fast food joints. Great marketing though.

Oh, yuck. The burgers are okay-to-good, but not as tasty as a fully loaded Five Guys double. But folks who aren't all the way into Volvos, Birkenstocks, net shopping bags, and MSNBC will find the greenie hooey more than a little offputting. Not to worry - Big Buns is less than 10 minutes from this location.

Like many of my north Arlington neighbors, I received a coupon for a free burger. I arrived around 11:30 on a Monday, restaurant was not busy but cashier seemed to be struggling with taking order of the one and only person in front of me in line. I guess the young man was a new employee. Simple order-elevation burger with caramelized onions and a small soda. After about 15 minutes, I noticed that 2 customers who ordered large orders after me received their orders. When I brought this to the attention of an employee, she seemed puzzled but assured me that I would soon receive my burger. Burger was ok, a little messy for the type of roll used. No caramelized onions though. I will probably not return. Maybe they should have a real manager on site to oversee the operations. I noticed another customer while I was there did not get the hamburger she ordered.

Solid, Solid burger. Who says you can't enjoy a burger that isn't greasy and fatty? This place won't leave the brown bag greasy and clear like five guys burger does. Nope, elevation burger really "elevates" their burger to a new level, featuring grass fed organic beef which is unheard of at these prices. If you have never tried grass fed beef, then you are doing yourself a disservice. Organic grass fed beef tastes MUCH BETTER than normal corn fed beef that's served everywhere else. Yes, grass is healthier and more natural for a cow than corn, resulting in much tastier and healthier beef. Now enough of grass vs corn fed fact, the burger itself is simply delicious and not greasy. It has a nice beefiness taste, and the elevation sauce is also pretty tasty. Get the double burger, the single burger is not big enough and simply does not have that nice beefy taste. The fries are also pretty tasty, and fried in olive oil and napkined down so that it is not greasy. All in all, a very solid tasty burger that you won't feel guilty eating at and isn't too expensive, everyone wins.

Burgers were dry,burnt and overcooked. No attention to details. Fancy fries were soggy. Not your typical elevation burger.

This restaurant is very clean and a great place to eat grass-fed beef burgers. Before, they served kobe beef a few years back. But organic beef is fine with me. As long as they still maintain their healthy mission integrity. Their daily cut french fries are the same as they were a few years ago, they are cooked in olive oil to prevent excessive grease and trans fat. The place is a healthy alternative to five guys, red robin, rays hell burger (even though rays is soooo good). You do not have the disgusting feel after eating at elevation versus the aforementioned burger spots. The costs at elevation burger is a little on the expensive side. But with the organic side of food, it is bound to be a little pricey. The owner is nonexistent in the arlington location because I think he is making a push to franchise out. The teenagers working there are competent in providing good customer service. If you got this far, let me express to you the value of grass fed and the rest they serve at most places serving burgers. I support grass fed, free range beef. The beef at other places, even your local market is corn fed beef which is worse treatment for the cow and prone to developing e. coli. Also, before the corn-fed cow is dead it is standing in a feeding lot in its own feces until it is D-Day for the poor cow hence no free range.

My boo was visiting me here from California, so I figure she might like it since we always go to In N Out when we're out there. (She thought it was alright, but good ol' mass produced industrial beef is just as good, if not better due to cost savings). This place is alright. I'm giving it 3 stars because it's okay. It is what it is, and I'm really not into the whole organic experience. The burger is pretty tasty, but still left me asking, "Where's the beef?". I'm pretty sure I had the same experience at the Falls Church location. I guess maybe us fatasses need to focus more on quality over quantity... mind you, its hard for me to think like that after this is on a return trip from COSTCO! For $3.99 for a single patty cheeseburger, or $5.99 for a double cheeseburger, it makes for a damn expensive burger. The place was dead when we went, and maybe its because it's July 5th, right after the biggest grilling day of the year... You would love this place if you frequent Whole Foods. Unfortunately, the Elevation experience wasn't good enough to go higher than my expectations.

Ate here for a quick Sunday brunch before another appointment in the city and noticed that they now offer chicken sandwiches on their menu. Hmmmmm, I will have to try that during my next visit. Otherwise, they still serve a good, juicy elevation burger with cheddar cheese and cheese fries for a side!

Fresh, quality burger. As someone that grew up with In n out. This is the closest Thing to that on this side of the country. A little pricey but they're good burgers with great fries. Good variety of burgers and chicken sandwiches.

Don't order bacon. $1.50 for half a piece of bacon. Burgers are OK. If they gave you a reasonable piece of bacon I'd give them 3 stars. Fries were also luke warm, clearly left over from previous order.

We ordered dinner from here last night: three hamburgers, two orders of fries, and a chocolate milkshake. Sadly, the milkshake was the only thing that was really flavorful. The burgers were like hockey pucks - grey and tasteless. Sad state of organic beef they use. Save your money - go to Burger King. At least the food is fresher and has good turnover.

Most people in line had their free burger coupon in hand...myself included....still at 6:30 the place was not crowded. This location has slipped over the last few years ..... would not drive past a Five Guys to get here.

Consistently poor quality last three visits. The burgers prepared have come to resemble something out of a sad 1970's dining meal kit card. I used to root hard for these guys and recommend them but the quality has just tumbled downhill too far. Hopefully they recover soon.

I was visiting my best friend and she recommend coming to Elevation burger because she's a regular there. For starters the thing I loved about this place was that they are organic. I felt what I was eating was fresh. This place sort of reminds me of Five Guys, but there's a little less grease and in terms of how it's set up. Their milkshakes are delicious and I like that you can customize your burger. Great place for friends and family. Only downside of the location is this is a busy shopping center and parking can be a struggle to find something. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was courteous and the place was clean. Next time I'm in northern VA I would definitely come back again. Btw they have yummy fries and you get a good amount for your price!

The location is very crowded and loud. Many children. The burger is very reminiscent of the butter burger from the Culver's chain, but overly oily. It is definitely not worth the cost. Overall though it is a decent burger, but not great. The fries were very disappointing, they tasted like lame healthy fries. The staff delivers the order to the tables, but yell/screams the names on the orders.

Order online for take away. Couldn't believe how bad the service was but once we finally got our order we left unfortunately without checking the order first. We just wanted to leave because the service was so rude. Got home to find overcooked/burnt burgers which had incorrect condiments/ extras. Then saw the French fries, of which, half were uncooked! Will never go to this location again.

This location is 15mins away from my house, so I took it to-go since the seating area was crowded. Once I got home to eat my burger, I excitedly took 2 big bites of it and thought it tasted rather bland. So I opened it up and realized 2 of my toppings were missing :( So I tried to call in advance to see what they could do and the phone line was busy. I called them back 3 times and once I got hold of them (20 minutes later) they said they could only add the toppings to my cold burger, and MAYBE they could speak to a manager to get a new one. It sucks because I work in customer service industry and would NEVER allow this to happen at my establishment. Such a disappointing experience.

For the umpteenth time, Elevation got my order wrong. This time, I get my burger home and find no bacon, no caramelized onions. On the receipt, not on the burger. This has happened repeatedly!! Great burgers - when they remember to do it right

Ok, I came back one again. This visit was just as bad as previous visits. I'll probably never visit again. I ordered for four people today. The staff here is the most unpleasant staff I've ever encountered. I asked the cashier what kind of shakes they had. He pointed to the wall. I didn't see the shakes listed. So, I asked again and he pointed again. Frustrated, I said, dude I don't see them. With a blank look on his face and without uttering a single word he pointed again. I told him, never mind and paid $45 dollars. If you guys don't want our business, then close your doors. I promise to never ever come back to this location again. I'm done!

Burger was great, as always. However, canned mushrooms, partially cooked bacon, and soggy fries made my whole meal a disappointment. I normally love their burgers and fries. Not sure if it's this particular location, because I normally eat in the Falls Church one which is ALWAYS wonderful.

Extremely delicious grass fed beef burgers and French fries cooked in olive oil. The restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly. The restaurant also now has vegan and vegetarian burger options.

Good Lord, this places sucks. We checked it out for the first time tonight, and got there at 7:30 (which I would say is still prime dinner hours). I prefer to not eat ground beef, but this usually isn't an issue at Burger places...not here. They were entirely sold out of half their menu (or the staff didn't want to cook it). Either way, none of the chicken options were available for order. Ok, then please give me the burger of the month, but with a veggie Patty. "Uuhhhh...the burger of the month has some 'exclusive' toppings." To which I said, charge me the higher price, or upcharge me for the toppings, but I'd like the burger of the month with a veggie Patty. Shouldn't be that hard, but went back and forth a few more times with the cashier. He finally took my order. When I received my burger, 3 of the toppings were missing. No wonder this place constantly has to give out free food.

Any place that only offers Sweet & Low as an artificial sweetener has to take the lock off the wallet.

I really hate to give a restaurant a one-star rating because I understand how difficult it is to make it in the food service business. However, Elevation Burgers worked hard to earn the one star. We had received a coupon in the mail and decided to try them for the first time. We arrived at about 5:20 pm yesterday (Sunday of a holiday weekend). The place was not busy. I ordered a BBQ Bacon Cheddar burger and my wife ordered a Mushroom Swiss burger with horseradish sauce. After almost 20 minutes, when at least two other groups that had ordered after us had been served, I went up to the counter and asked about our status. I was told that somehow, even though our credit card transaction had gone through, our order had not gotten sent to the kitchen by the computer. What? The clerk was very apologetic and promised that our order would be right out. At this point, I would have expected him to offer something other than an apology, like comping some French fries or a drink or something but no. A few minutes later, our order arrived. My burger was supposed to include caramelized onions but I did not detect any as I ate it. How it was possible for my burger to have the meat very overdone to the point of being crispy on the edges and the cheese not melted at all still escapes me. When my wife took a bite of her burger, her eyes got really big and her expression turned to shock. She grabbed her drink and took several gulps. Then she opened her burger to find, not a slathering of horseradish sauce, but nearly two tablespoons of grated horseradish that had been piled on the bun. After scraping as much of the horseradish as she could remove off of the bun, my wife, who loves horseradish, said that the burger was barely tolerable. I did notice that there was nearly twice as much horseradish now piled on her plate as there were sliced mushrooms on her burger. I hope that yesterday was just a bad day for Elevation Burgers, but it was bad enough that I doubt that we will try them again.
