They let you build your own burger and you can choose The Impossible burger ! Vegetarians and vegans rejoice. Everything was delicious.
The Sprouted Veggie ($10) is a hefty meat-free burger made with a housemade veggie patty , sliced red onion , mixed greens, roasted red peppers and alfalfa sprouts.
Create your own burger , get your best burger ???? Try their grilled vegetable skewers with pesto and grilled corn ! Delicious!
The veggie burger turned out to be extremely tasty. It was even better with an egg on top.
With four types of patties, 12 types of cheese , 33 toppings, 21 sauces and six types of bun , exactly 312,120 different burgers combos are possible. (House-made guac and tangy tzatziki are two faves.)
Customizing can be overwhelming, so don't be afraid to go with a preselected burger . They're preselected for a reason!
Great Build-Your-Own burgers ! And the milkshakes taste like they did when I was a kid! They even have gluten-free buns !
Really good taste in beers (9 taps), one of the best burgers in L.A. And the parmesan fries are ridiculous. Even better than sweet potato .
2/3 beef . Grilled onions . Brie cheese . Grilled green chilies . Apple smoked bacon . Sun dried tomatoes . Chipotle aioli . w/ a side of sweet potato fries & Belgium seasonal beer = YUM!!!
A fun way to put together a burger . Their ingredients are vast and allow unique combinations.
With all the healthy add-ons (grilled pineapple , roasted peppers , sprouts & more), even a juicy burger can be nutritious. Bonus - whole wheat buns and vegetarian-friendly patties.
Beware medium-rare here it's rarer tan rare at many places. Otherwise awesome burgers
Great burgers - it may look complicated, but definitely try building a custom burger , it won't get better than that
Add bacon to the Parmesan fries or bacon and jalepeno to the chili cheese fries . Bomb! :-D
Excellent custom built burgers . Make sure to try the crispy onion strings and for those with a sweet tooth, their shakes .
Really fun burger joint : customize every ingredient of your hamburger via a hand-marked order form-- be careful, the burgers are HUGE!!
You can add stuff to the grilled cheese and its amazing! I like bacon and tomatoes , but anything goes!
One of the best burgers you'll find in Los Angeles!
Nutella milkshake . And for the gluten-free crowd, there is GF bread !
I love that I can build my own personal and perfect burger !
Your turn to make your own burger ????????
Share an off-menu "Trio" plate of regular fries , sweet potato fries and sweet shoestring fried onions .
Definitely ask for Beth to be your server! She's sweet, super fun, and one of my closest friends!
The best burger ever! Come on Tuesday from 4-10pm and order The mini burgers with 4 beer pairing for just $12.

1/3 lb. beef , honey wheat bun , soft ripened brie , coleslaw , tomatoes , corn and black bean salsa , jalapenos , and whipped avocado ! its like the French-Spanish War with cheese Read more
No matter how you get your burger , add Fried Onion Strings to it. Trust me on this one!
2/3 lb. beef , medium, multigrain bun , applewood bacon and tillamock cheddar , with sweet potatoe fries ! so good!
I love their Unique Veggie , one of the best!
Everything
The sweet potato fries are to die.... One order is big enough to share.
Do your phone a favor and use that Starbucks wifi ..
Order the multi-grain bun toasted "well ". Otherwise it will be too soft to hold the burger together.
Great fries and great onion rings -- get the half & half .
Always a solid choice
The grilled cheese skimpy and disappointing ????
It can be very echo-y when the windows are shut. I wouldn't suggest it for a lunch meeting.
Burger pretty damn good, and you get to pick from a ton of shit to put on it. And the sweet potato fries are even better. Read more
Build a burger . This month's (Feb 2011) ciabatta bun is recommended! Beer here too.

Order anything it's all amazing, best burgers by far!

The fried pickles here are way more breading than pickles . They're really not very tasty. Unless you're into that sort of thing.
Caramel apple crumble shake ❤️????
