I've been to Nuburger on two occasions.
The first time I came here, I had the blue & gold ($7.75, now $7.95), which came with blue cheese, tomato, balsamic onion, lettuce, and low fat chipotle. The burger was a bit messy to eat, and the juice from the tomato and the sauce caused the buns to be soaked. The burger didn't really do much for me and I wouldn't order it again. And back on the topic of buns, I forgot what type it was, but I didn't like it as much. They don't use that bun anymore now, and instead you can get your burger with the traditional buns, multigrain, or even have it "nude", which basically means your burger is wrapped in lettuce. For the side, I had freshly cut potato fries ($3.25) and just simply tossed in salt (you can also get it tossed in sweet curry salt). They also offer dips for $1, which includes chipotle aioli, rosemary garlic aioli, ultimate chili aioli, sweet chili mayo, honey dill, sweet n' spicy chili mayo, and truffle aioli (extra $0.50). I also got a glass bottled coke to wash it all down. When I got my fries, I had to send it back. Why? Because they cold and soft. It seemed like the fries they had served me had been sitting there for a while. Fresh fries made should be hot, and outside crispy. If I knew the fries were cold, I wouldn't be serving it to the customer. The server I spoke to had apologized and made a new FRESH batch of fries for me. You can find the before and after photos of the fries I got below. As you can see, my first experience wasn't that great.
For my second visit, I tried the Donald ($11.25, now $11.55), which came with black currant shiraz reduction, omega-3 egg (sunny side up), sauteed mushrooms, balsamic onions, bothwell cheddar, lettuce, tomato, and truffle aioli. The burger was massive, and again messy, due to the runny egg yolk (but I love it). I should also note that after you have placed your order, they will give you a toy, which in my case was a care bear figure, and this is for them to identify you when your food is ready and is brought to your table. The fries this time were perfect, as they should be. The burger itself tasted good, but not the best I've had.
Overall, if you're a burger connoisseur, you would probably want to give this place a try, as there are not many gourmet burger joints in the city. read more
