    Large Truffle Fries
    Zane F.

    Food: Their pretzels are delicious here!! Crunchy salt on top of a soft, pillowy pretzel with a side of delicious queso makes it a go to. The 'What The Guac?' burger was yummy. The guacamole wasn't brown at all which tells me that it was fresh, and that freshness paired nicely with the heavier beef and toppings. The truffle fries were also good, crispy and flavorful. I would say a little less on the salt because the Parmesan cheese made it extra salty. Service: Our server was great, attentive and kind! Many of the servers seemed to be happy to work here and there was a good amount of servers, they were not understaffed at all. Atmosphere: It can get very loud in here around dinner time, but just a sign of many happy people eating! Lots of TVs to watch sports games as well. Overall: Been here a few times and they always have good, reliable burgers!

    6 dollar slider happy hour. Amazing

    Not sure where else you can go for a happy hour that get 2 Chardonnay's and a great burger for 20 bucks. Great food. Ambience is a 10. Upscale burgers cooked to perfection. Everytime. Staff is top notch and there's plenty of parking and more good vibes

    mushroom melt burger, large order of truffle fries and beer

    Medium to large burger bar with several locations in the Denver area. Modern interior with warm lighting. Went to this one in the suburbs in a plaza. Pretty busy on a Saturday night. Menu has a selection of beers, burgers and sides. The burgers don't include sides. Got an amber lager(?) from the draft list, and it was a really good beer. As for the food, I got the mushroom burger, cooked to medium. The burger had a nice bun, thick juicy beef patty cooked to desired consistency, and a nice cheese and mushrooms. One of the best bar/pub burgers I've had for the price. Also had a large order of truffle fries, and it was definitely a large order. My friends had to help me finish the fries, and it was some nicely seasoned fries. Overall really enjoyed the food and beer.

    Sydney was our bartender. She was so friendly and gave us great service. Happy hour was delicious that was a nice surprise. The garage doors open by the bar, so when there is nice weather it is a great atmosphere. We will definitely be back especially with great service like this.

    A series of things went wrong - our food was brought out wrong- we were given regular fries instead of truffle fries, which we told the food runner, but it didn't get fixed until we told our regular server -the fries were just ok- most were hard and overcooked, on both the wrong order and the corrected truffle fry order - everything seemed to take a long time -found a fly in my husbands drink (under the ice) I don't blame our server for any of this. Our server was really friendly and obviously doing his best, but it looked like he was running at least 7 tables, which is just way too many. They are probably understaffed, but this was a lot of problems to have on what should have been a slower Sunday at 2pm. The burgers themselves were good- I really enjoyed the black and blue- the blue cheese dressing was a nice counterpoint to the bacon, and it was cooked perfectly. I also really enjoyed the perfect burger and the onion rings. The mucho mojito was also good, although I would definitely ask for them to go easy on the jalapeño, as the spice level of an individual jalapeño is variable, and two can be way too much for my wussy self. The sunrise mule was excellent, with the grenadine giving a nice balance to the liquor. I was disappointed that the draft menu online didn't seem to match the menu in person. The salted caramel custard was fabulous, and a perfect balance of salty and sweet. Overall, I love the patio, the decor, the abundance of televisions, the server, it just seems like a lot of things fall through the cracks, which can add up. Hopefully they get it together, because the burgers are really great.

    Rings and Fries
    Tammy S.

    We've been here twice and both times the service, food, and patio dining was terrific! The Ring of Fire Hamburger is exactly what it says it is! I like heat (the spicy kind) and this one brings it! The 2nd visit we ordered the Magic Mushroom and added poblano pepper - mmmmmm! The burgers are cooked to our preference, they are flavorful and the ingredients are fresh. The fries are fire! And even though I don't usually care for onion rings, my husband loves them so we got the rings and fries the second time and I had to try one. It melted in my mouth! Perfectly breaded and cooked where the onion is soft and sweet but not mushy. I would be happy having this on my plate again. The shosito pepper appetizer is delightful in giving that fresh green taste without being super filling (unless you eat the entire basket of peppers, that is!) Finally, while the air began to cool and the patio we decided that a frozen custard swirl was the ticket to making summer last a bit longer, and it tasted like summer on my tongue! silky, creamy, and filled with both vanilla and chocolate flavor. I'm sure we will be back next month for our "burger night" dinner - thank you!

    Perfect Burger, side salad and Boss Hog
    Jason R.

    Went in for my birthday, and i must say this is a pretty cool place! The dining area and bar is very nice and clean. Full bar with a patio and lots of seating! Clean and well kept! Went with my parents and got 2 of the "I can't decide" duel slider sampler, the ahi tuna sandwich and the Durango burger. With the samplers we tried the Perfect Burger, 5280 burger, Boss Hog and the Prime. The Perfect Burger was very close to Perfect! Its an Angus Beef patty with Gruyére Cheese. A Bacon Onion Jam and pickled Red Onions. And finished with lettuce and garlic mayo. The buns are soft and moist. The 5280 burger is a classic cheeseburger. Nothing special but very good. The Prime burger is a wagyu patty with an onion ring and BBQ sauce. The sauce is interesting. Maybe not my favorite bbq but it was ok. The boss Hog had potential but I thought the pulled pork on top was dry and dried out the whole burger. The Fly Fisher (ahi tuna) was AMAZING! The tuna was perfectly cooked and the Wasabi aioli was soooo good!! The Durango burger had jalapeño cream cheese and crispy onions. A little sloppy but the mess didn't deter from a great review!! Spicy but not too overly spicy. It's a good choice if you like jalapeños on your burger! One downfall is the burgers don't come with a side. The sides are extra. We got side salads, the fries and rings combo and the fried brussel sprouts. The fries and rings are GREAT!!! CRISPY AND FLAVORFUL. Hand cut and fresh!! The side salads are good and the house made croutons from buns are delicious! The sprouts were very well cooked. Crispy but not overcooked! Overall the food is great! 9/10! The prices are a little steep. $120 for lunch for 4. The service was good. Nothing over the top, but I will definitely be heading back to try some more of their food!!

    5280 Prime burger
    Mateo K.

    I live close to this restaurant, and have visited a handful of occasions. Some visits have been better than others. Their model is built on premium burgers served "al a carte." They offer fries and onion rings on the side, along with some other items. Unfortunately there is no consistency with doneness of burgers or the level of service. I prefer a medium burger, which should be a pink center, no red. The first 4 visits here I ordered medium but it was served medium rare 3 times (mostly pink with slightly rare center), medium once. I figured based on these experiences they just lean towards a rarer level, so today I tried medium well. It came out absolutely well done, zero pink. It was also half covered with sauce on the outside of the upper bun, which was over toasted and crumbly. Very disappointing for a place that charges a premium price for a burger. They need better training for the back of the house.

    Onion rings and fries basket
    Brian N.

    5 stars for the food and 2 stars for service. Our burgers were perfectly cooked and seasoned! The prime steakhouse burger does come with the house burger came with the house made 5280 steak sauce, but blends in perfectly with the seasoned meat; it was just the right amount of streak sauce to where it's not overly dripping off the burger as I'm eating it. Burgers don't come with sides, but there are many side options to choose from. We opted for the onion rings and fries shareable basket. I loved the onion ring batter and seasoning! I only wished that the basket was more balanced rather than a ton of fries and only 4 onion rings. We were seated in the bar area, and it took quite a while just for a server to come over and take our drink orders. By the time they came over, we placed both our drink and food orders immediately. Even once we were done eating, we were just sitting around waiting for them to come back around with our checks. Our drinks were completely emptied by then and the server didn't even bother to ask if we wanted another refill.

    The Greek (bun, falafel, lettuce, tomato, hummus, tzatziki)
    Feathers M.

    5280 Burger Bar was a pleasant experience for dinner. I ate at the restaurant with four guests around 7 p.m. on a Wednesday and we didn't have to wait at all for seating. The restaurant offers plenty of indoor seating and outdoor seating, too. Outdoor seating consists of traditional tables and picnic tables. I ordered a Cucumber Mint Mule and Greek (sandwich), which was about $24 total. The Moscow mule was a big disappointment. The cocktail was mostly ice and barely contained any alcohol (and I feel confident in saying this as a lightweight, irregular drinker). The Greek sandwich was very yummy though! Our table also ordered fried pickles that came with ranch and a large order of fries. Burgers and sandwiches do not come with sides, but our waiter recommended we order a large fry and that was great. That side order was perfect for all five of us. As for the atmosphere, Burger Bar is a traditional American restaurant. Unfortunately, our appetizer plates were not clean. They had butter on them. We also had two bees hanging out on the window near us and eventually had to ask our waiter to take care of them, but that's really not the restaurant's fault. The restaurant's bar has a garage-style door they had open to the outdoor section, so the bees likely just got in that way.

    Yum Burger and Fries!

    Ordered delivery. Burger very underwhelming. Two small pieces of cheese. They forgot the sauce. Overcooked burger. Not worth the money.

    Best burgers in town. Top quality entrees. Fries are delicious, sometimes a bit soggy, though. Nice patio and ice cream to take for dessert

    Absolutely great burgers! Probably the best food, and best service in the metro area. I will definitely be coming here more often.
