If you like Burger Dive original location, then you'll probably like this location too. At least maybe for the food but not so much as for the nostalgic ambience of the downtown location.
Still, as much as I enjoy the downtown spot, sometimes I just don't feel like making the journey. Burger Dive has solved that problem with this west side location.
Between the two locations, I've tried several of their burgers and the Jerk with pepper jack and Jamaican jerk sauce and the Garlic with roasted garlic and garlic basil mayo have been my favorites so far. Both are decent size, juicy and the toppings enhance but don't hide the flavors.
It's the shakes that have my curiosity piqued -- the Essence of Goat is a blend of huckleberry and Goat cheese. The tiny pieces of that sharp cheese was a great balance to the sweetness of the huckleberry and ice cream. (The ice cream is Wilcoxson's of course, a local Montana ice cream. ) The roasted garlic and salted caramel shake was interesting but didn't wow me as much as I expected. The caramel was there but any hint of garlic was lost. The shakes are available in a smaller size and after barely being able to walk after a burger, it was a good selling point.
The employees have all been super -- customer service has been spot-on.
I might have to venture toward the Nathan's hot dog offerings next visit. read more
