I was initially hesitant to go there thinking that it&#8217;d just be just like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiveguys.com\">Five Guys<\/a> (which I find a bit greasy and salty but otherwise dull), but after reading the menu and seeing a much more expansive selection (including veggie burgers) I decided to go on.<\/p>\n<p>After looking over the menu I ordered a veggie burger (not sure how this is different from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bocaburger.com\/\">BOCA Burger<\/a>, which is also on the menu) topped with saut\u00e9ed mushrooms and blue cheese with a regular size order of fries. After being told that the <i>zip sauce<\/i> is a home-made sauce with soy sauce, honey, and cayanne I asked for a bit of it on the side. What I received is as you see above, a nice looking not-squished burger (detail of the patty <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/gallery\/v\/moblog\/IMG_20100716_125505.jpg.html\">here<\/a>), fries, and a small container of sauce.<\/p>\n<p>The burger was good, and I ended up topping it with the zip sauce which went nicely with the mushrooms and blue cheese. At room temperature it was a little runny and didn&#8217;t stick well on the burger so I ended up mopping most of it up off the foil wrapper as I went, but it tasted good so I didn&#8217;t mind. The waffle-cut fries were crispy and properly salted, and I received a few more of them than I could eat. It would been nice to have fresh-cut fries instead, but properly cooked frozen ones (like these) aren&#8217;t anything to complain about.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, I think that Burgrz was much nicer than Five Guys, and is a place that I actually want to go back to. Ordering was fast, food took about 5 minutes to receive, and the place looks nice inside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Please excuse the crap photo, as it was taken under the fluorescent lights at my desk.)
