Saturday…read moreafternoon was peaceful, so I sat at the bar, watched The Masters and enjoyed the Meatball Sampler Platter. The platter has two each of the pork, beef and shrimp meatballs along with a half ciabatta garlic loaf and works well as a shareable or single entree. Honestly I didn't think I would like the shrimp meatballs, but it was pretty delish. It was a simple yet unique dish that I would definitely recommend for first time visitors. The drinks are great and the bartender, Alex, made wonderful company. Will have to visit again to try the burgers.... The restaurant was well kept, from the bar, dining room and even the ladies room. The restaurant is accessible friendly but park spots are across the lot.

Luckily, they had a special $10 going on for their ZZ cheesy burger when you buy a drink. Our server and the bar manager was so welcoming, attentive, and so nice to us, being our first time there. This place is not a chain restaurant and this is their only location. Woo! Woo! We both ordered each their handmade cream sodas which were absolutely delicious. My son got the ZZ burger special and I got the BMC burger. Our burgers were cooked to perfection and the shoestring fries were great. Wow! Everything was scrumptious and we finished our plate clean. Their house sauce is amazing and addicting. Overall experience and food was excellent. Service was excellent too. I most definitely will be coming back!

My son and I stumbled across Bob's Atomic Burgers online while looking for somewhere to meet up for…read morelunch, and I'm glad we did. It's located in Golden, Colorado, right across the street from the world-famous Coors Brewery, so the setting is already pretty cool and scenic. Bob's Atomic Burgers has a great neighborhood-joint feel: small, cozy, clean, and eclectic, with interesting stuff on the walls and a fun local vibe. When we walked in, there was a table near the door with order sleeves and paper forms where you build your burger by choosing the meat, bun, cheese, free toppings, and extra toppings. They have a really good selection. I went with a single beef patty on a white bun with American cheese, pickles, raw jalapeños, tomatoes, green chiles, banana peppers, and a large fry. We turned in our order sleeves at the counter and ordered fountain drinks. When we mentioned it was our first visit, the staff gave us a very warm welcome. The young lady behind the counter explained a little about the place and how the ordering process worked, which was much appreciated. The burgers are made to order, so we waited about 10-15 minutes. Honestly, that worked out perfectly because indoor seating is limited, and during the wait we were able to grab a table. They also have outdoor seating, though it was raining when we visited. When the burgers came out, they looked amazing. I'd describe them as a cross between a smash burger and a traditional patty, and I really liked that. My burger was delicious, juicy, flavorful, and messy in the best possible way. The large fries came in the usual paper sleeve, but it was absolutely overflowing, and the fries were hot, fresh, cooked to order, and excellent. This was honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had. Great food, friendly staff, cool atmosphere, and a local feel that big chains just can't touch. Skip the lame McDonald's or Burger King run and go somewhere that makes an actual great burger. Bob's Atomic Burgers is absolutely worth the visit.

My daughter got the adult mac n cheese she enjoyed it and i took a couple bites which i thought was good as well. My son got the bowl, tho he enjoyed the top half the bottom half he couldn't finish he said the rice was drenched in the teriyaki sauce. Burger for the win my son friends got burgers as well.

I happily devoured it for dinner when I got home from the beer festival. Did I mention they serve u their patty's with a mountain of fries? Because they do and they are delicious as well! The SERVICE: The friendly staff were more than accommodating when I expressed my interest in a burger to take home and eat later.

The LOCATIONS: You can find Burgercheif curbside at a TON of sites around Denver and the surrounding areas. Just check 'em out on Facebook to get all the deets on their next curbside location!

We had a sampling of appetizers: chips and chorizo queso dip, chicken bites, fried pickles, crooked fried cheese, and for the main course, pizza. All were tasty and hit the spot.

This place has that classic sports bar energy you hope for... TVs everywhere, a lively crowd, and the kind of atmosphere where you can kick back and enjoy a solid burger. If you're a burger fan, be warned--the menu is loaded. It actually took a minute to land on a decision because there are so many creative options. I went with the Burger in a Bowl and added blue cheese. Now let's talk about that... They don't do the "light sprinkle" thing here. They pile it on, and as someone who appreciates bold flavor, I was all in. The burger itself was cooked well and had great flavor throughout. It comes with steak fries, and I specifically asked for them well done... unfortunately, they didn't quite hit that crispy finish I was hoping for. Not a deal breaker, but worth noting. Service was okay--nothing negative, just not overly engaging or memorable. Kind of a "take your order and keep it moving" vibe. That said, the overall experience was strong. Between the atmosphere, the variety on the menu, and a really solid burger, this is absolutely a place I'd come back to if I lived nearby. Pro Tip: If you're a blue cheese fan, don't hesitate--they go big with it here. Final Verdict: Great spot for burgers and a laid-back sports bar experience. A little more attention to fries and service would push this into 5-star territory.

We stopped in recently on a Sunday evening and we were glad we did. They have an interesting wine and cocktail list and we took advantage of the 4.00 beer with entree. Service was laid back,friendly, and fast. Exactly what you want with teenagers. Portions were appropriate and prices are about what you'd expect for the area. Ambiance was light and breezy, with chill music playing overhead that wasn't too loud. I'll come back here for a happy hour with friends or to celebrate an occasion without hesitation!

Had a pretty bizarre experience here. We came in at 7:45pm on a Saturday (3 of us) and were told we…read morecould sit but the kitchen had to shut down for 45 minutes. Ok no big deal I guess - it didn't look very busy, but these things happen. We were sat and our server took our drink order right away. The cocktails were very good - I tried the Living on a Pear which was very refreshing and the rest of our party had the 1858 which they liked a lot. Once we got our drinks no one came by for 30 minutes and I had to flag someone down to bring us some water. At 30 minutes we asked if chips and guac was an option while the kitchen was "temporarily not serving food" but the server said all the fryers were full with fries so no they can't do that. Ok... so we continued to wait. It was around the 45 minute mark we were able to order so they were true to their word. This is what we ordered: - Pork Belly Bacon Scoops - these were just ok. The fries were nothing to write home about and there wasn't a lot of toppings. The pork belly bits were very small and kind of hard and chewy. The sauce was decent, but just not enough of it. - Li'l Wig - I'm sad to say this was one of the worst burgers I've ever had. I requested medium rare and I don't know what the patty is made out of it, but it resembled more like meatloaf than a burger. It was very dense and had a strong gamey taste, reminded me more of bison or venison. Idk, it was just not very good. I only took a few bites and left the rest. The brioche bun was tasty and so was the W sauce. The fries were really good and had a nice crunch. I wish the appetizer used those fries instead. The service was inconsistent. We were barely checked on until the very end when we had a few different people come by and refill waters / bring the check. We never saw our original server again. It is a nice vibe inside, great lighting and decor with both indoor and outdoor seating, but I don't think I'll be returning. The bill was $133 for 3 drinks, 1 app, and 3 burgers. Felt pretty let down leaving still hungry and over $150 in the hole (after tip). Hoping it was just a fluke and other people have better experiences there.
