You can feel better about what you are eating, but your taste buds will be less satisfied. Five Guys set the standard for burgers slightly more expensive than fast food but less expensive than the full-service restaurants and counter-service gourmet burger outlets. We left our freshly stamped loyalty cards on the table as a tip.With the trendiness of burgers since the recession hit and a myriad of new burger places opening and restaurants offering more burger options, Elevation Burger fails to stand out from the crowd. Nice touches, but not consistant with the fast food mode, and in no way compensation for the mediocre food. Food came quickly, and we were twice asked how things were as we ate. Or, if I want a cookie cutter burger like this, I'll pay half that at a fast food chain. For that, I'd rather eat at an actual restaurant. I had a three patty burger with two slices of cheese, and a fountain drink. My friend and I both felt hungry after eating - somehow the food was not satisfying. The cashier (who looked like he might have been the manager) did not know how many ounces are in a pound I was trying to decide how many patties to order. The buns were slight, and became instantly soggy.
The fries were very tasty, but grossly overpriced. It ruins the flavor of the better meat - which I'm not sure was that high grade anyway, though it did taste grass-fed. I do not like burgers cooked the way this place does it - overcooked. For the money, I fully expect to be able to customize my burger. Second, there is only one kind of cheese offered. Foremost, I can not order the burger to be cooked the way I like it. The problem is that they really don't offer any choices at all. But presumably I came here because I wanted organic, grass-fed beef, and a few upscale options. If I want a fast burger, I can get one at a fast food joint for half the price. This is a copycat 5 Guys, and both suffer from the same ill conception. The placemat and posted literature of this place is all about image and not about food. Ambience: kinda generic and bland seating layout seems to encourage you not to stick around too long Service: good, efficient, not great order at the counter food brought to your table questions readily answered at the counter or at your table Food: well-done is standard and results in a dry patty though not greasy taste too dependent on the toppings dearth of meat flavor reminds me of many fast food burgers fries were good, but again did not distinguish themselves from anywhere else nice to have a side salad available though it was just okay menu looks similar to Five Guys (regular burger is two patties kids burger is a single patty) Cost: $43 (excluding tax) for 2 regular burgers, 2 kids burgers, 1 veggie burger, 1 fries, 2 side salads, & 3 fountain drinks With the trendiness of burgers since the recession hit and a myriad of new burger places opening and restaurants offering more burger options, Elevation Burger fails to stand out from the crowd.
