Oh my God, you're slinging burgers how hard can it be for me to get one warm/hot cheeseburger versus room temp into my hands in a drive-through?!??!? No lines either,,,lol I know I know first world problem

Strawberry shake

Since I've moved to WA from Cali, it's hard to find a great burger the kind we get from hamburger stands. Haven't found one yet that doesn't cost $20. When I came here I got my moneys worth, they were kind of skimpy on their fries, their shakes aren't all that that people rave about. My bacon cheese burger though hit the spot. My daughter had the mushroom burger she was disappointed she said it was very dry and they only gave her 5 mushrooms. This place is the overall affordable place for a burger and a charbroiled burger at that.

This was a delicious, retro treat, including the price. If you see this silver road-side stand, get a burger and fries. You won't regret it.

One of my favorite fast Burger joints ever. I've moved & miss coming here, but try to stop by when…read moreI'm in the area. In addition to the food, I like the tartar sauce they use.

My office moved to Federal Way outside the Seattle area. Burger express has been around for 40…read moreyears, has won many local awards for burger of the year, and has a drive through. I normally have lunch here and the front desk person always remembers my order with a smile and the staff is eager to please the customers. The space still has the old style character from when it was first opened. During lunch, the place is always packed. Now, I don't eat beef and I always get the prime breast chicken with onion, pickles, cheddar cheese, grilled jalapeños , tomatoes , and mustard. Most burgers come with French fries that are wonderful and the bun is great. I had to stop eating the fries and the bun because I was falling asleep at work. Now the catch here is that most burger places that serve chicken tend to taste like chicken cooked with beef flavor - not at burger express. The chicken tastes like charbroiled chicken without the beef aftertaste. So now I have the chicken burger that looks like more of a salad. They always are accommodating and every time, produces a nice burger that I completely enjoy. That and a bag of potato chips is enough to be filling and keep me awake at work. Cheers to burger express. The only thing I wished they would consider is the option to have red onions. That would take this burger to the next level.

So this visit I got the strawberry milkshake with the shot of vodka, delicious; and we also ordered the Three pepper bomb hamburger, outstanding; we also got the buffalo calamari, which was again one of my favorites. But the problem came when we ordered the Nashville hot wings and the salmon sandwich. Both were lacking in flavor and presentation. One of the big issues with the salmon sandwich. The sandwich was served on thick cold bread, I couldn't barely taste the salmon and all the other ingredients on the sandwich (see photo). Wait. I take that back. You can also taste the billion tomatoes they had on the sandwich. I let the staff know the bread on my sandwich was not hot and ask them to toast the bread. Well, I got the sandwich back in five minutes and I don't know how they toasted the bread, but what they did made the sandwich a lot worse than it already was. I did not finish the sandwich at all. The Nashville, hot sauce was not great. The way the wings were served it looked like they brushed the sauce on the wings. Definitely, not my preference. I like my wings dipped and saucey. I probably shouldn't complain since the sauce wasn't that good. I'm actually advocating that they remove the salmon sandwich from the menu because if they can't do this well then they should just stick with burgers.

I think they usually mostly cater to lunch customers because they closed at 6 PM. I asked the employee what the most popular sandwiches were and she told me it was definitely the crispy chicken bacon banh mi. We ordered that and a spicy pork shrimp banh mi. Both were excellent! I really liked the bacon one more and my partner really preferred the pork shrimp one more so it worked out. Both were a 10/10!!! Crispy fresh fluffy bread. Not stale at all. And about $35 for both sandwiches and a can of Coke. Beware that crispy chicken will cut up the roof of your mouth though. It was worth every bite!! And they were so big that I could only eat half. Saved the other half for the next day and it was just as delicious. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town and it's not too late.

My favorites are the Thai chili shrimp & pork bao and their spicy torched shrimp & pork rice. Their portions are generous and they do not skimp on the meat. The only criticism I have is that the bao bun does start to fall apart getting soaked with the juices from the meat and sauces. Food is usually ready within 5-10 minutes. A very casual spot to grab a meal with ample amount of seating if you choose to dine in. There is some parking directly in front of the store but there is more towards the back. Definitely recommend this spot!
