I was so stoked for the newest Downtown Mesa addition, Main Burger. Taco Chiwas is one of m favorites, so to hear they were starting up another project down the street - say less!
It was a welcomed upgrade from the previous rundown Subway for sure. The building and aesthetic itself is super cute. It's very bright, love the overall design and burgerman logo/mascot. Its a fast casual spot, with counter service, where they hand you a number and bring it out, just like their Taco Chiwas counterpart. Service is super friendly and they helped answer all our questions.
They offer a great exterior patio and a decent amount of indoor seating. The menu itself is relatively simple featuring three burger options, a classic, a Sonora and the Chiwas, of course mexican flavor focused. You can get the burgers as a single, double with both having a combo option. The classic, is exactly what you would expect, the sonora is essentially like a sonoran dog, but on a burger - though they also do offer a sonoran dog option! The Chiwas is their Taco Chiwas taco staple, but on a burger, with pepper, asadero cheese, ham and other accoutrements.
I went for the double chiwas burger combo, which is $19 dollars and includes a fountain drink and side of fries then added a side of spicy. ketchup. My husband got a single chiwas and a sonoran dog.
Everything had great flavor. The patties themselves are quite thin, smashburger style, so I do not think I would ever get a single patty, as far as protein ratio goes. The fries were quite salty, good, I prefer a bit less saltiness. My husband loved his dog and his single burger, but agrees the double is the way to go.
I did really enjoy it, a bit pricey for overall amount, but I suppose that's to be expected now in today's economy. Definitely worth a visit and will be returning o try some of their other offerings, including seasonal cheesecake or ice cream!
