BurgerFi

BurgerFi
The Woodlands, TX
Cheeseburger
American Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, BurgerFi Sauce
$7.47



For today, I had the luck of being at BurgerFi's Customer Appreciation Day (which was really just a reopening) and happened to be one of the 50 who got the free burgers for a year, and normally I would be super excited about that, but unfortunately, the burger has me less excited that I have to eat 51 more of them within the next year.
To start off, my order was wrong, which I get it was super busy so I'm not going to hold that against them, but I hope that is not a regular thing.
Once I did get my correct order and sat down to eat, I was very surprised by how small the burger was. My fiance got a single patty burger and there was no way that was filling. When you have the double patty, it was a little more obviously, but the burgers are VERY hand held. The bun was probably my favorite part of the whole burger. It was thick enough to absorb the liquids on the burger and still retain form and had a good taste to it.
Once we get in between the buns, is where the problems start. The toppings were average toppings so nothing to talk about there, the cheese was very melted, which was great because I love a good amount of cheese on a burger, but then the meat killed the burger for me. The meat was undercooked and tasted very bland and dry. It almost tasted like a lower quality White Castle, which for the price I'm paying is absurd. To make matters worse, it was chewy and crumbly.
The final nail in the coffin for this burger was the sauce. The BurgerFi sauce is a large collection of mixed ingredients with a mayo base, but his sauce was like 90% mayo, it's almost all I tasted in every bite, which was awful, I just was not a fan of the sauce.
To be honest, I will have to give this place another shot due to to the fact that I have the free for a year, but I'm not too keen on the prospect of it.



VERDICT: 2 out of 5 Stars.

And so the Chase continues…

Southwell's Hamburger Grill

Southwell's Hamburger Grill Houston, TX Bacon Cheeseburger Mayo, Mustard, Lettuce, Pickles, Tomatoes, and Onions with American Cheese and Bacon. $6.40 For this week's burger trip, I decided to try out Southwell's Hamburger Grill in Houston, TX. Now I have lived in Houston my whole life and I have never heard about his place (despite it having 4 locations in the Houston area) until I looked through a burger suggestion post on Facebook, and frankly, I probably could have gone the rest of my life without hearing about it. Now before anyone jumps to any super negative conclusions, the burger wasn't "bad". It just was not what I was looking for. The meat was a pretty good size and was pretty juicy but didn't really have any seasoning, the bun seemed to be a typical hamburger bun out of a package, and the cheese seemed to be just a regular old slice of American cheese thrown on at the last parts of the grilling process. I didn't like how...

Omega Grill

Omega Grill Spring, TX BBQ Burger Farm 44 Meat, BBQ Sauce, Bacon, Cheddar Cheese, & Fried Onions $12.99 For my first review back home, I decided to go to a place that I have always seen but never really tried until now and I am kind of mad at myself for not trying it to begin with. As I was researching this place, I found online that they have an award winning Breakfast Burger and I was very eager to try it as I hadn't really had a breakfast burger on this blog yet, so it was something new, but when I arrived at the place, it turns out that their prices online were wrong and this burger was going to be $17. I frankly just wasn't willing to take a chance that day on something I might not like, so I opted with what the waitress said was their 2nd most popular option, their BBQ burger, and I wasn't let down. First of all, I thought the presentation was great. How they stacked the onion rings and ingredients was super fun and I love it. But let's get ...

Bernie's Burger Bus

Bernie's Burger Bus Bellaire, TX Hot Cheeto Burger 2 3 oz Patties, Bacon, American Cheese, Tabasco Infused Onion Strips on top of Spicy Mac n Cheese Encrusted in Flaming Hot Cheetos with Homemade Hot Sauce $9.99 If you happen to go to Bernie's Burger Bus, the first thing you need to do is ask about their "secret" menu. That's where you will find this bad boy. For some reason, left off the regular menu, even though it could easily be called "The Hot Teacher", the server told me that this was at one point a limited time item, that got such popularity they still serve it. To start off, this burger definitely deserves a 5 for it's creativity. In lieu of buns, they instead grind up hot cheetos into a coat that they form around mac and cheese and voila, you have 2 Hot Cheeto patties with Mac n Cheese in them. That however, does seem to be a bit of the issue for them, the "buns" themselves seem to overtake the whole burger and most b...
