5/11/2026 Got there…read moreearly on a Monday before noon. Only one family and one other person dining there. It was not busy, yet. But after 12:00pm, lines started forming quickly! TANNER'S PRIME BURGER Got it as a double. Burger is a good size and it was very filling! For one person, it is a lot! Better come hungry because it is hard to eat the whole burger when you ate already. Maybe for guys it might be different though. The smashed patties were very juicy and dripping with beef fat! The crisp lettuce, sliced sweet onions and tomatoes helped keep the burger from being too heavy. They also give you a small Cascabella Pepper too. They serve your burger with their bottle of sauces brought together on the side. I liked their hot sauce which tasted like Frank's RedHot. Their main burger sauce was the typical burger sauce you get, kind of reminded you of McD sauce and In N Out sauce without the pickle juice tang. Ordered the Tanner's Prime Burger as a single burger for my mom, but did not try the single burger. But everything looked good! For those who only want more meat and cheese flavor in their burger, order Tanner's Prime Dirty Double. KIDS PRIME SLIDER Got this for my mom, but she did not like it after a bite of it, so I ate most of it. It is a simple slider with a single patty with American cheese on a brioche bun. There's also their own sauce called Tanner Sauce. It is a slider, so it is smaller than Tanner's Prime Burger, but the smashed patty was bigger than the brioche bun, so it was quite filling! Since it was grilled in tallow fat, you can taste it too and it can feel heavy after a few bites. Personally, I wouldn't recommend this. Tanner's Prime Burger is much better with the crisp lettuce, onions and tomatoes to cut the tallow fat. Love that they offer salad too, Tanner's Prime Burger Salad, everything minus the bun. TALLOW FRIES This was crispy and nicely salted. Slightly more saltier than I'd like though. It was good, but wished it was cut thinner, like McD fries. Overall it was good and I ate it with their hot sauce. After eating all this, your hands will smell like tallow. So wash your hands more than once! Wanted to get their beef tallow vanilla ice cream sandwich called Tanner's Fatty Patty, but sadly they did not have any that day. CUSTOMER SERVICE The whole staff was friendly and smiling. Good service overall. SEATS Plenty of seats indoors and outdoors! Sat in the booth and it was very comfy! Two unisex bathrooms available. PARKING It is a small parking lot, but there is street parking too. Overall, I had a good experience, but I will admit that the patties cooked in beef tallow is quite new to my palate. It was a heavy burger for my palate. Tasty, but heavy and healthier, too. I would definitely return when I'm given another chance to come by this way!

Eating at Tanners is usually a real treat. I have celiac disease, and it is medically necessary for…read moreme not to eat gluten. In addition to offering gluten free buns AT NO UPCHARGE, Tanners safety protocol marks gluten free buns automatically as a gluten allergy. I have eaten here several times, and not been sick once. My issue with today's visit stems with our order being to go. The gluten free burger is not marked on the box, and it's not super obvious that the gluten free bun is gluten free. It's a funny complaint, because usually gluten free buns are terrible and obvious, but Tanners are by far the best gluten free buns of any restaurant. When we ordered to go the first time, the fries were included with the regular bun. Unfortunately, that made the fries unsafe for me to eat so my husband had to eat all the fries himself. Tonight we ordered three burgers, 2 regular and 1 gluten free. As we ordered, we requested the fries be included with the gluten free burger. (The 2 regular burgers did not want fries) When we arrived to our destination, the fries were crammed in the same box as the 2 regular burgers. The fries were all over the regular buns... rendering them unsafe for me to eat. I called Tanners to report the issue. The person who answered the phone said because we ordered a gluten free burger, their protocol is that only the gluten free burger can go in the box. Nothing else is allowed in. So I asked "When we ordered the fries and requested they be with the gluten free burger, why were we told 'sure' instead that the fries can't go in the gluten free burger box?" They paused, and answered "I'll tell them this happened." The big problem with this, is the person who answered the phone IS the person who placed our order. The name they said on the phone (Hello this is blah blah) is the name of the server on our receipt. Ordered Thursday 5/21, order 378. I don't take issue with the safety protocol of keeping the gluten free burger separate. I appreciate it! My issue is I made a specific request, was told "sure" instead of "no, because" Had we been told at time of ordering the gluten free has to be completely alone, then we could have requested a separate box. Had the server apologized for the error and taken ownership, I wouldn't be leaving this review. But the person who made the error answered the phone, and this is the only way to hold them accountable. I am not posting their name, but hopefully Tanners can see who it was from the date and order number posted above. I don't enjoy paying for food I can't eat.

We came to celebrate a friend's birthday and planned on ordering multiple drinks and food, but we were left waiting for long periods without any attention. At one point, we were ignored for over 30 minutes, and one of our drinks did not arrive until right before we paid the bill. It also seemed that the original server stopped checking on our table entirely, and another staff member eventually had to assist us. Considering it was Tuesday around 3 PM and the restaurant was not very busy, the lack of service was disappointing and unexpected. While the experience started well, the overall service ultimately fell short and left us disappointed.

Well for some reason that has all changed and there are just two chairs which didn't really feel right eating my lunch there so I brought it home and suffered the not right off the grill taste. I'm sure there's a reason, but the burger was still great and it's still on my list for one of the good ones down here. Update, the owner who's a wonderful woman told me the reason that there is no inside dining is a city issue not her choice. That's a great owner to write a Yelper like me and explain why there is no dining options available not her just a city ordinance thank you very much

I instantly set a reservation (didn't really need it) and we arrived around 4pm on a Tuesday and sat on the patio. Happy hour is daily from 4-6pm and if you sit on the recently renovated patio, drinks are 50% off. I ordered the Ribeye as my birthday entree and we also ordered the Fried Zucchini ($7), Popcorn Chicken ($9), Guajillo Braised Pork Shoulder ($21) and several cocktails ($7 each during HH). Everything was great honestly. No complaints. My wife REALLY loved the braised pork shoulder. My steak was excellent and even though it was free, $32 for a ribeye is the lowest you'll find anywhere. It was nice having not having to fight for a seat. Enjoying a cocktail on the patio in perfect weather is something everyone should try.
