    Servers station
    John D.

    I actually liked the burger and the service was nice however, the dining area was a bit dirty. The waiters menu station was untidy, the service cabinets where the servers put in the food orders were falling down and it felt the dining area could use a spring cleaning. I may return but I'm not rushing back.

    Ramsey Smashburger
    Dustin H.

    So there's a fine line between upscale/top tier "fast food" and affordable "sit down" casual dining. A matter of a couple of dollars separates the overall cost of a Red Robin, Shake Shack, Five Guys and/or a place like "Burger Up." "Burger Up" has all of those places beat hands down in terms of ambience, service, atmosphere, etc. I really appreciate their commitment to locally sourced ingredients and beef as much as possible as well, so perhaps I should also grant them grace in terms of price. I had the smash burger-Ramsey. It was...good. Good, not great. Good beef, okay toppings/bun/etc. It didn't quite feel like a smash burger--a bit thick for that maybe? It wasn't crispy around the edges particularly. But it had overall good flavor and I enjoyed it. Not greasy at all. The Ramsey supposedly has pimento cheese but if so, it was very slight. The fries were good. I had a winter ale (Shiner) which was good...but as others mentioned, $8 is a tad pricey for a Shiner even if it is seasonal, especially since I was dining at a time ripe for happy hour and/or specials. My server was great, friendly and helpful. 3 is "good" "solid" "overall worthwhile" IMO, so this is definitely not a thumbs down. There's plenty of parking, the overall atmosphere is great. It's good food, just 10% or so pricier than it should be.

    Mac and cheese bites and Oreo mint milkshake
    Chloe T.

    Just an average burger place. My husband and I got patty melts. The onions were pretty raw (in lieu of caramelized) and it just had plain I toasted white sandwich bread. We were able to try the onion rings, regular fries, and sweet potato fries. All just average and kinda soggy. The Mac and cheese bites were ok, and we would probably get them again. I don't know if the milkshake was good or I'm just prego and needed ice cream lol but I'd get it again. Service was fine considering it was packed.

    Burger Ups Kids Menu

    As a mom who drives around and drops off kids at lessons, this is such a great kid -friendly restaurant! All of their food is so good and sauces are top notch. There honestly hasn't been anything bad that we have ordered. The truffle fries are a must too! They have a great kids menu too (shown), and their plates are served on the faux paper white places and it always has a steer or cow under it after eating all their food along with wikki stix. I hope this review helps any mom out there looking for an alternative to fast food (if you have the time).

    Bison Burger & Fries
    Mari B.

    Haven't been here in years and glad we stopped by! Our serve Alfredo was fantastic. Good beer selection. Fried pickles were delicious and served with ranch dressing. Our little had kids grilled cheese and glad it came with not only fries but apple slices. The Bison Burger was fantastic - lean but flavorful. Loved the fries the came with them - they had Parmesan, garlic and seasoning with a great mustard type sauce - very good fries! All in all, a good experience all around!

    OG Smashburger (with lettuce wrap instead of bun)
    Tim G.

    Glad we finally tried this place. Had a good meal and a great experience. The service was excellent (thanks, Caleb!). Interior was very nice. Somehow I was expecting more of a fast food place, but this is a great spot for dining in and hanging out, with table service. The food was good. The Fried Mac & Cheese Bites were really good, with a tasty dijon aioli for dipping. My wife loved her OG Smashburger, opting for the lettuce wrap to make it gluten-free. They also offer a gluten-free bun, and the menu is marked pretty well for gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options. I had the Woodstock Burger, which was tasty. Fries were also good, nice and crispy. We will definitely come back to check it out again soon, and try some of the other burger options.

    Wagyu Burger on Pretzel Bun
    Sherry W.

    I think it's pretty insane for 2 hamburgers and 1 beer to cost approximately $60... $8 for an average beer that is more than a 6-pack you can buy at the store, and the hamburgers averaging about $18 bucks a piece Is CRAZY... I guess if you don't want to cook at home, then splurge... Honestly, I would come just for the fries and special made ketchup. I so wish i could duplicate that ketchup at home. And, I can't complain about the taste... They were yummy burgers!

I can't say service at this location has ever been noteworthy. It's more just moving people through the line. They offer mini and regular sized donuts. I love, love, love that they offer mini donuts. I've never been a big fan of their donuts, but the winter donuts may have changed my mind. My favorites have been Sugar Cookie and Gingerbread Latte. I enjoyed the buttery, flaky layers. I also grabbed an iced sugar cookie and that was delicious. For drinks they offer coffees and a case with sparkling waters, juice, and canned coffee. Five Daughters is worth a try if you find yourself near a location.

They offer full-size cookies in singles, six pack, or a dozen or mini cookies in a cup, small box or big box. Whitney's also sells a small selection of drinks -- milk, sparkling water, chilled coffee, or regular water. We ordered a chocolate chip and a salted peanut butter. At $5 a cookie, this isn't an everyday indulgence, but the cookies were large enough to share. And they were really delicious, especially when they were heated up and the chocolate chips melted.
