We had the Blue Cheese burger, the Jalapeño Burger and the Patty Melt, wow! The burgers were cooked perfectly and tasted amazing! The zucchini chips are to die for! We came on a busy Friday night and the services was out standing! This is a must try when you are in Anthem! read more

Noticed this burger joint on my way to a doctor's appointment and decided to try it out after going on yelp and seeing it had pretty decent reviews. I ordered my burger, medium rare and it came out very well done and I mean well done, completely dry. Being somebody that normally doesn't send food back and then eat the food that is then brought back out, I finished half my burger and the waitress came up and asked me how it was. I pointed out to her that it was very well done and told her it was dry. She explained that "the kitchen just got a new grill a couple weeks ago and they're trying to figure it out". I understand that may take some time but it does not take a couple weeks for a good cook to figure out the temperature on a grill. And really shouldn't matter because it's all off the feel of the burger and experience of the cook. But then I got my check and she applied a little bit of a discount just over five dollars. I expressed to her that I don't feel I should have to pay for a burger that was completely dry and not cooked correctly. She understood and took the check away came back and wouldn't you know I was in charge full price for the onion rings I did eat and my iced tea, both understandable but the full price onion rings was about 60% of what the burger and onion rings cost. First time in and definitely will not be going back. read more

It took approximately 40 minutes to get two hamburgers that were overcooked. Getting rather pricey. To many other restaurants to eat at with better food and service. read more

Order both burgers and sides totally wrong. Dry drinks 3 times and way too much $ for it to be that bad.

I've eaten here twice within 2 weeks. The burgers are amazingThe service is great tooWill be back again soon

Food and wait staff are great. Only issue is they don't pay attention to the front door. We eat hear frequently and most always wait for 10+ minutes at the front door without anyone noticing us (and we are the only customers standing there). If management can fix this little issue, they would have a 5 star review. read more

TruBurger is a great local restaurant to Anthem. You can tell it's a local favorite with how full it always is. It's a small restaurant with a nice patio. Staff is always friendly and the happy hour prices are great! Some of our favorite: - The fried pickles are a must try! Full spears and so crispy! - love the Italiano burger - great wings - excellent sweet potato fries - yummy house margarita & sangria If your in the area, definitely stop by. Food is always the same great quality. read more

This location has ample seating both indoors and outside. It is great to see a vegan option on the menu!!! I got the impossible burger with onions tomato and pickles. We also got the fried avocado as an appetizer. Everything was very good. This is a good start but I think the restaurant could do more to entice vegans and those seeking more plant-based options. Looks like cheese if free on burgers - why not offer a vegan cheese or avocado in place of dairy? Vegan mayo? How about a vegan salad with chickpeas or tofu? You could go all out like Picasso's and pita jungle and have a whole vegan menu! The service was slow, but it was overall a good experience. We will be back and hope to see the menu expanding with more vegan options! read more

Very good and I am very critical when it comes to a good burger. Service is usually good sometimes it takes a while to get noticed at the front desk. 3+ stars read more

I just want to say I wish you guys the best I don't understand how somebody can give you two dollar signs tho? This place is super expensive for a hamburger. This is like San Francisco prices, but when you're serving this kind of beef one expect $$$$ for sure . But we also expect that food to be hot and I know when I was there year ago my food was not hot either. I'm not sure what's going on, but the flavor seems OK but yeah service super slow and dull ish. The restaurant itself has a nice vibe. I just wish that French bistro would come back. I loved that place. read more

Service is "hit and miss." On our last visit we were promptly seated. We waited 25 minutes and did not have a single person acknowledge us at our table of 4. We sat and sat. We saw 4 staff, each went straight to one table, then quickly turned and left for the kitchen. So, we left after 25 minutes of being totally neglected. Also, when we sat down, we saw 2 other tables (both were tables of 2) that had ordered and had drinks; and when we got up to walk out both of the tables were still waiting for their food. One couple said they wish they could leave too, but they needed to pay for their drinks first. Food is good, if you can ever get waited on . . . and then if you are willing to wait and wait for your food. read more

Aiden is simply amazing food is great too definitely recommen! Came with the family for a birthday

Great cocktails, good restaurant vibe. I got a really good burger there, but the queso was thick and flavorless. Service is real hit or miss. I still go when I crave a burger, but there's better out there. read more

We decided to give it a third try since our first visit was amazing and our second visit was mediocre. The salads on our third visit were outstanding. Fresh and plentiful. I'd give them a 10 out of 10 all day as would my husband. He had the pear salad and I had the Mediterranean salad and they both were fantastic. My only recommendation is that if the bartender is going to have to wait tables assign tables close to the bar for them. We ordered our salads and waited. We were the first customers arriving at about 11:10 on a Sunday. We ordered within 2 minutes of arriving because we already knew what we wanted. Others who arrived after us started getting their burgers and fries, but we still didn't have our salads. Around 11:50 the bartender came out to take another order and we called her over to inquire about our salads that we had ordered more than a half hour ago. She said they take some time because the chicken has to be cooked. She walked into the kitchen and brought the salads out immediately. I just feel that it's difficult for anyone to manage the bar and check on customer's and their orders. Thus my recommendation to seat her customers closer to the bar. The food was so good we will stop by again and I'll do my best to remember that the service is a bit slow. read more

Wow this was the best burger of all times. We had Italian, California and bison and they were ALL perfection with no comparison. Not only the food was top notch but the service is exceptional 10 stars Thanks read more

Good spot to meet a few friends for a meal. I would call it average. Food was not amazing, but not bad either. Service was good, especially given the size of the crowd. They were not overly friendly, but far from rude. read more

My family and I traveled from Buckeye to meet our friends from Prescott at this establishment. There was 7 of us, and we were all excited to sit down and enjoy a meal together. We opted to sit outside since it was convenient and there were patio heaters. The server took some time to come out & greet us, but we didn't mind as we were occupied with catching up and talking. As we place our orders we asked the server to turn on the heaters, which she did. About 15 minutes later the exterior window popped and glass shattered; we assumed it was from the heat of the lamp as it was about 2 inches away. The hostess happened to be outside to witness, our serve came out and moved it a few feet away. We asked if she could turn it back on and her reply was "really?" 20 mins went by with no acknowledgment from this server. We finally waved her down to ask if everything was ok and she said "well your kid knocked the heater into the window and broke it. Why would it be ok". We were all shocked and appalled by her response. Our kids were nose deep in their tablets. We asked for refills and she was VERY RUDE. Had we not been with friends we would have gotten up and walked out. I decided to go up to the bar and talk to the bartender. She was very apologetic and took care of us for the night, but the rest of the staff ignored us and even gave my wife dirty looks as they walked passed us. Never in my 43 years have I ever been treated so poorly in a food establishment. I personally delivered food to this establishment from my employer and was so excited to eat here. The bartender informed us the owners were out of town for the weekend and our server happen to be the LEAD of the night. The bartender also informed us that this happened last year in the same spot. Not once did anyone ask if we were ok as glass shattered on to our table. Thank you the bartender for trying to recover the situation. If I could give zero stars I would. I realize that working in a fast pace environment can be overwhelming, but as a paying customer, I would hope that someone left in charge would be better equipped with proper etiquette on handling these situations. The fact that I had to ask the bartender "are we welcomed here or should we just leave" is embarrassing. Even if our children were at fault of causing damage, this is not the way to handle it. My hope is the owners see this review, take time to evaluate the situation from their 2 exterior cameras and give their lead the support she needs to be better at her job. read more

UPDATE: The owner immediately addressed the issue and went out of his way to make things right. Extremely impressed with the way things were handled and will absolutely be going back. GREAT customer service! I remembered Tru Burger being one of the best burgers I had ate about a year ago, so I was really excited to go back last night 7/30. However, our waitress Brooke was extremely rude and inattentive, and our food was horrible. After leaving all of my fries and everything but a small bite taken out of my burger on the plate, which I thought was obvious I did not like, along with my fiancés meal, we paid for the bill and went across the street to Freddy's. Super disappointed and dissatisfied, wont be going back! read more

The food was incredibly delicious and fresh. I had the Whiskey River Burger, my buddy had the Blue burger, and we split the enormous basket of zuchinni fries. Washed it down with a couple refreshing glasses of Arnold Palmer's (Ice Tea and Lemonade). All of it was excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the restaurant and outside eating area was very clean. I will be eating here again next time I'm in town. I'd give it six stars if I could, so I'll just leave the extra star here: * Have a great day! read more

This is a solid burger joint in a town with way too many burger options, but I tend to like this one the best. They offer some unique burger options, and they're all good. Recently, they added mac and cheese, which was also good. It's a smaller restaurant, so it can get busy. read more

Got here at 1pm, kitchen appears to be short staffed waited 20 minutes for food. Ordered green chili burger and garlic park fries. Burger cooked great but only had one large green chili so not enough to get with every bites. Garlic fry's had way too much garlic and could not taste Parmesan. My server was awesome and everything tasted really good. Suggestions - butterfly the green chill and add 2 to the sandwich. read more

Great service! Food was delicious. They have a variety of fries to choose from as well as onion rings and zucchini fries. The chips and salsa were fantastic. The guacamole was good but was a little brown and needed salt. The patio is dog friendly and had heaters to keep it warm. The holiday drinks were so fun and yummy. I really enjoyed the Winter Daisy for something new and uniquely Smokey. read more

BEST. RESTAURANT. EVER! We are here 5 out of our 6 days in Maui! All the food is delicious and the bartenders are so friendly. We felt as if we were right at home here. Highlights were the lava lava shrimp tacos and the lobster & crab Mac n cheese. Best Mai tais on the island for sure! read more

I have finally found a local favourite to visit over and over again. I have now visited Tru Burger about 12 times in the last 5 months. They have great service (thanks to Megan). And consistently good food. The manager who runs the bar has a great personality who takes pride in his bar. From the many beers and guest beers on tap; to his recent smoking Old Fashioned, (see video uploaded). I have not had a bad drink at Tru Burger and always had a warm welcome. The food is great, you can order off the menu or make your own combination from their extensive menu. Watch out for the habanero sauce! that thing creeps up on you, i would recommend it on the side. We usually get the grass fed lettuce wrap burger or salmon, grilled pineapple and habanero is also a good favourite. Fries? Sure they have great fries but awesome sweet potato fries. Cannot decide? Don't worry they do a half and half too! Come for the burgers, stay for the bar and patio. read more

Was in the area for Shopping at the outlet. Dropped by this Burger joint for a quick lunch. I am glad it was a wise decision. Thanks to Yelp reviews. They were not so busy. Just couple of customers at the bar. We got seated quickly. I had the California burger with Ground Turkey and my husband built his own burger. We also tried the garlic parmesan fries. I must admit the Burgers are a bit pricey but they are worth it. The Burgers are big in size. Juicy char grilled protein with some good sauce, veggies and soft buns. Loved the burgers, good in taste. The fries were amazing. The cheese was not melting, just the way I like it. The only disappointment was that there was a fly around our table. Next to the glass wall. Rest all in all good burgers. I'll be definitely going back to try some of the other variety of burger! read more

No Social Distancing They may have put up plexiglass, but all the tables are in use and at 8pm on Friday, this place can only be described as a Covid factory. No Air Conditioning Either it wasn't working or too many people made it boiling hot inside. The entire town of Anthem seemed to be eating here, but there was no evidence of a pandemic going on at this unregulated dive. We had to walk out and avoid the ventilator. Good luck. read more

Stopped while driving down I-17. Sat down and ordered lunch at 1:30pm; food arrived at 2pm. Place was pretty much empty, so no reason for such slow food. I ordered a veggie burger and it wasn't as tasty as the ones I pull out of my freezer. Hubby got a Whiskey BBQ burger that had inedible stringy stuff in it. There was a black hair on my plate. We split a side of fries, which arrived cold. For the cost and the wait, definitely not impressed. McDonald's would have been more satisfying. Check showed up five minutes after food, but couldn't get waitress to cash us out. Finally picked up credit card, put down some cash and left after 20 minutes. This is one of the few times that yelp reviews steered me wrong, and I won't be back. I honestly rank this as the number one worst dining experience of 2023. read more

The owner of this establishment is absolutely all about customer service phenomenal. I have to give him a shout out the new girl must've misunderstood my order she gave me a wrong order. He was apologetic about the misunderstanding. He fixed made correctly. Amazing, then he didn't even charge me for it and then he gave me a gift card for the inconvenience. I have to say I wanted to pay for my meal and he would not let me!!! Thank you sir. The foods always amazing love my poke salad with salmon delicious!! read more

We were thrilled that we could build our own burger to make it all plant-based. I have to say that my burger was the best burger I ever made! been back twice and got the same thing with the Tru Fries...the only way to go.

Once again fantastic food, service and excellent drinks. Highly recommend this restaurant and the owners are fantastic, down to earth people!!! read more

Their burgers are truly great. Gourmet fries. Service is good. Drinks are great as well. There's a long wait usually for a table so get there early! read more

Yet another amazing meal!!! Stuart and Fawn are knocking it out of the park. Never a bad experience! Great food, and great vibe!!!

OK, but not a place I'd return to. I got the Friday fish fry. The beer batter tasted like it had NO salt in it. Plus it was really thick - too much! My companion got a buffalo chicken sandwich. Again, OK, but not special. The order seemed to take a long time, considering it was mid afternoon and there were only six other customers in the place. The coleslaw was nice and fresh-tasting. read more

So tonight, I tried bison for the first time. I will have to say it was amazing! Here at Tru Burger, you are given a lot options to choose from, regarding how its prepared. I chose the bison medium rare, served lettuce wrap style with only, of the many options - with goat cheese, bacon strips, and an amazingly flavourful Habanero sauce. Was I dissapointed? Absolutely not. Was my fear of a gamey meat removed? It was. This bison burger (lettuce wrapped) was amazing. I am so happy to have chosen lettuce, over a heavy bun. Not having the bun allowed all the flavor from the bison to be enjoyed. And was it enjoyable! I will definitely be returning! read more

Loved this place! Best grass fed burger I've ever had. The food and service was amazing!

5 stars for Lexi! She was absolutely wonderful. She was kind and had an amazing personality. It took a while to get our food and we could tell she was feeling so bad but it was definitely not her fault. The food was not so good but who knows maybe it was a new cook or just short handed in the kitchen. We know things happen so we will be back to try it again. Lexi for sure was the best part of Tru Burger. She deserves kudos for being awesome! Details on food- Pastrami sandwich and onion rings were top notch! Very good! BBQ burger- I asked for it well done but it was very dry and burnt. You can tell it was cooked with the heat up way too high for too long leaving it dry with a burnt taste. Sadly not good at all. Grilled chicken sandwich- same as the burger. Very dry and overcooked. Not good either. Lexi made this a 5 star review! Food alone it would be a solid 2 1/2. read more

Great happy hour specials for food and drinks. Patio seating as well as indoor. Quick service and good quality food.

Wonderful experience at Tru Burger! Our server, Cecelia, was absolutely delightful. Friendly & efficient service, very sweet! I opted for the Build Your Own burger, choosing the Ahi Tuna, adding avocado, caramelized onions & mushrooms, greens, & tomato. So good!!!! Often times burgers made from alternative proteins are dry & unappetizing...this burger was not that! Drinks, food, & service are on point, I'll definitely be back! read more

Overpriced for what you get. You can get just as good of a burger at Chili's. Yes I said it. :)
