I want to start this review by saying that unfortunately, every critic has to have a ceiling that they compare the good burgers to and a floor to compare the bad burgers too, and this burger seems to have set the criteria for the floor.
Before I dig in to the negativity, I would like to give a disclosure I learned about this particular establishment. This is a Korean Burger place that while it does sell Burgers, is not generally KNOWN for their Hamburgers. Their top selling items are their Veggie Burgers and their Bulgoki Burger which is a sliced Beef sandwich marinated in their Bulgoki sauce. BUT in the spirit of fairness, I had to get a Hamburger to keep the playing field level, and in that arena, they just did not stack up well.
The meat was beyond bland. I actually could not remember a time that I have eaten a more bland patty, it had little to no seasoning. Now after adding a side of the Bulgoki sauce to the burger, it did make it a little bit more appealing, BUT this sauce does not usually come on their burgers, I had to ask for it. The veggies were from a build-it-yourself veggie bar, and were not very fresh which is surprising seeing as how I got there at around 12:30 for lunch. I will however say this, their buns were great. They advertised as baking them fresh daily, and it did taste very fresh and warm.
To add an extra note about this place, the servings they gave were VERY generous for the price of the lunch special and the crinkle cut fries had a very good, what seemed like a cajun seasoning on them that honestly if they would have put on the burger, might have made it better.

VERDICT: 1.5 out of 5 Stars.
And so the Chase continues…
