A good burger patty is flavorful enough to be eaten on its own, either through seasoning or because it is of high quality (of both)…and this one was neither. (I learned this from growing up in cattle country and from a stint of low carb eating when I ordered my burgers without buns.) And just so you know “Angus” is a marketing ploy. The Angus growers think their meat is better than others so they got an Angus “certification” program put in place to lead us to believe their meat is superior to others. Angus does have some qualities that other beef does not but at this point even fast food chains are touting “Angus”…so it isn’t anything special. Tell me that it is Niman Ranch, Marin Sun Valley, grass fed, organic etc “Angus” and I will be impressed but just saying “Angus” is like putting all your money on “Romaine” lettuce in your signature salad. It just isn’t that special and really says little about the quality or flavour of a dish.

This burger fell into the category of “I would drive around for a while searching for another burger place try before settling on this again.”

The one good thing was the service. They didn’t bat and eyelash at adding bacon to my burger even though it wasn’t listed anywhere on the menu. THAT is the kind of service I like and is pushing me closer and closer to just not even bothering to look at the menu but just ordering a “bacon cheese burger” as soon as I am asked for my order. LOL
