I had the Eighteen Beef Burger ($13.80) which has sliced beef instead of a traditional patty. The meat was thin with a chewy texture, and had a sweet flavor that didn't really make sense in a burger IMHO. The cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce were quite faint in comparison, while the accompanying sauce had a tangy yet spicy kick. The bun was slightly dense and quite normal, and the wedges were lightly crispy and soft on the inside.
An interesting concept, though not for traditional burger lovers.

I had the Sweet & Smoky Burger ($25.50) whose patty was fairly dry, had a slightly chewy texture, and a light beef taste - while large I wouldn't consider it gourmet. The crispy onion rings, BBQ sauce, and red onions added much needed flavor which was savory with a bit of spiced kick, easily overpowering the other ingredients. The bun was quite dense and normal while the thick fries were very average.
It tastes like a nicer Carl's Jr. Western Bacon burger, which isn't great given the price.

The Beef Burger ($18) at Dimbulah Chijmes looked promising at first - perfectly sized, all the right ingredients, and with a healthy serving of fries. Though the bacon was abundant and well cooked, the texture and taste was more fitting to go with eggs than on a burger. The cheese, grilled onions, tomatoes and greens added individual flavors yet didn't come together to make the overall burger better. The patty was fairly thin and uninspiring while the fries were thick yet equally lackluster.

I ordered the Signature Burger ($27) at Prive's Chijmes outlet with high expectations, given the price and listed ingredients. The burger was small-medium in size, and the wagyu beef patty was pretty disappointing - though thick, it was a bit overcooked, slightly tough, and didn't have a distinct flavor nor juciness. The bacon was nice and crispy, however the cheese wasn't melted at all. The fries and greens were ordinary. Overall an incredibly average burger with a hard-to-justify price tag.

I had Da Bomb Burger ($19) which had a nicely toasted bun that was quite dense. The patty is very, very thick with a strong beefy and salty flavor, and a chewy texture that wasn't tender nor tough. The thick bacon was fairly salty but was offset a bit by the soft egg, while the greens below attempted to round out tastes but were mostly overwhelmed by the patty and bacon. The shoestring fries were decently good and the fruit salad was tangy and refreshing.

The Jones Classic Wagyu Burger ($26) had a slightly chewy patty with a nice beef taste, but a bit on the tough side. The truffle mayo was the best part with a nice aroma and flavor, while the crispy bacon, caramelized onions, and cheese was good too. The sauces and pickles were tangy, but the bun was quite dense and dense causing a dry feeling. The fries were quite average and not crispy, and the coleslaw was decent but a touch heavy on the dressing. A decent yet fairly normal burger.

I had the BSK Burger ($28) whose juicy short-rib beef patty had a very nice yet subtle beef taste. The thick bun was neither too soft nor dense, with a fluffy spongy feel and small hints of buttery flavor. Other than that however, the overall taste was very light which led to a rather plain experience. The fries were crispy with a great texture and decent taste.
I'd love a bit more flavor on this burger to help out the great patty, but those who prefer subtle tastes may enjoy it the way it is

I had the SEAR Wagyu Burger with the 3-course set lunch ($44) and was expecting a lot for the price ($5 more than the grilled Wagyu steak option). The patty is quite tender with a light beef taste, but it wasn't very thick nor flavorful. The toppings were refreshingly tangy - I tasted tomato and avocado amongst other ingredients - while the bun was soft, slightly dense, and quite normal. The shoestring fries were crispy and great. Overall a good burger, but nothing too special given the cost.

I had the Ripper's Classic ($16) and added crispy bacon and caramelized onion ($1.50 ea). The bun was soft, with a light texture and a nice but faint taste. The patty was also soft, with a slightly mushy feel and subtle beef taste. The cheese, bacon, and onions helped to add some flavor but they weren't too strong in taste either. The fries were a bit crispy but mostly average. The overall burger was enjoyable and has potential, though I would have appreciated a bit more flavor or saltiness.

I had the Muddy Burger ($19.90) which was big and very messy. The beef patty is thick though quite generic in texture and taste. There was a strong nacho cheese flavor which had hints of truffle, crispy nacho chips and fresh guacamole & greens for unique textures & tastes, and tangy tomato chili which was rich but not overpowering. The soft bun was easy to miss, but the seasoned fries were great - very crispy, excellent texture & a touch of truffle. Overall a rich and filling meal w/ good value.

I had the Bacon Cheese Burger ($26) which has a good sized but underwhelming beef patty - a bit overcooked, not tough but also neither tender nor juicy. I liked the tangy flavors of the sauce & veggies rounded out by the egg, while the bacon was easy to miss. The bun was nice and tasty. I enjoyed the side of crispy shoestring fries, though the small stack of onion rings were just alright.
A decent meal, but a better patty with more pronounced bacon would have helped a lot.

The Alt Burger ($16) has a large (but not very thick) beef patty which was dripping with juice. While I wouldn't consider it gourmet, the patty has a slightly chewy texture with nice, subtle flavors. The toasted bun was a bit dense with good taste, while the toppings & sauces made for a fresh and slightly tangy flavor.
I also had the seasoned fries (+$4) which had good texture & taste, though not very crispy. Overall a satisfying, casual burger thats nicely between gourmet & fast food. 3.5/5

I had the Double Decker Burger ($14.90) which was very thick given the double beef patties. The meat had a decent taste and texture but was nothing too special; it wasn't gourmet but rather a bit generic - like a much better McDonalds patty. The bun was soft and the toppings typical, though the cheese was quite nice. The shoestring truffle fries (+$1 extra) were very good, pretty crispy with a nice aroma & flavor.
A good, quick, and fairly priced meal if you don't need a gourmet burger.

The Burger ($23) has a very thick patty made of several ingredients - the blended beef & pork meat also had hints of veggies within it; the texture was pretty grainy and a bit dry, while the flavor was slightly salty. This was well complimented by the egg and thick bun, which helped curb out the taste. The grilled onions were large and soft, but the flavor was easy to miss (same for the cheese). The shoestring fries were very nice and crispy. A cool place with a good, but not great, burger.

I had Huber's Beef Burger ($15.50) which is on the small side. The beef patty was nicely cooked with good texture, decent juiciness, and a nice beefy taste; a touch salty and chewy though I liked that aspect. The cheese was rather faint while the soft onions added good flavor to compliment the saltiness. There wasn't any bacon at first but they brought some after I brought it up; it didn't add much anyways. The fries were kinda crispy while the salad was nice & fresh. Overall good but not great.

I had the Epicurious Burger ($20) whose homemade patty was almost like bolognese, both in the soft and crumbly texture as well as in taste. The bun was nice and went well with the patty, while the greens, sauteed onions, and mushrooms offered fresh yet subtle complimentary flavors. Overall the bolognese taste was quite central to the burger, which was quite refreshing and not too heavy as a whole. The side of shoestring fries was ok, with some crispy others others a bit stale.

I had the Char-Grilled Satay Burger ($6.90) which certainly lived up to its name. The soy patty was thin with a nice texture which felt a lot like meat. There was good flavor from the nutty satay sauce which gave a kick of spice alongside the onions. The veggies and cucumber rounded out the taste while the bun was quite dense, creating a nice balance.
I'm a hardcore meat lover but I'll admit I definitely enjoyed this a lot more than expected. A refreshing change, especially if you like satay!

I went for the Midtown Burger ($19.50) which had one of the thickest patties I've ever seen. The texture was quite delicate, falling apart in your mouth, and had more of a watery moistness than juiciness. There was a slight charcoal grill aftertaste which went well with the subtle flavors of the cheese, caramelized onions, and veggies. The bun was quite normal while the fries were unique - half soft, half crispy, and super tasty! A good burger & meal, but adding bacon would make it much better.

I went for the Tyson Peanut Butter Burger ($21.90) as that was their signature dish. The patty was thick with a nice texture and a strong charred taste. However, the flavor definitely deferred to the peanut butter (I guess this is the point). The veggies & egg added a different dimension of taste but didn't really compliment the peanut butter, though the bacon added a touch of welcome saltiness. I enjoyed the burger though the peanut butter was a bit much; I'd like to try the others next time.

The Spruce Burger ($18) has a great, thick, grass-fed patty with perfect texture and a fresh yet subtle taste. It relies on tomatoes, onions, mustard, and greens for flavor - a healthy/minimalist palette may appreciate this, though to me it was a bit lacking (adding bacon may help). The bun texture is quite dense when eaten, leading to the bread taste being borderline overpowering. The seasoned fries are ok, but thicker than I prefer. A good, healthy-tasting burger, but a bit on the plain side.
