Word got around that new burger joints were springing up around the west coast. There was one right outside the Rock so we figured we’d give it a shot.

These guys really seem like they want to make a strong impression. Adorned on the walls are mini-banners and news/magazine articles all screaming high praise from various publications across the nation. At a certain point it felt like they wanted to convince me by showing their credentials instead convincing with their food. But I’ve yet to try something, let alone order. Oooh, free peanuts…a nice touch.

The menu is relatively basic but with much more options than In-n-Out. They even have a “little” version of their burgers which are a little cheaper. Toppings galore! Wow. lettuce, pickles, grilled onions, mushrooms, jalapeno and green peppers, various sauces. You can have it all too, though I’d doubt anyone would want all those sauces on the same burger.

Fries come in 2 types: five guys, which is a slightly salted version, and cajun fries. a little more on that later.
