Lobster Burger
A burger topped with succulent lobster.
Burger Score:
5 pt out of 5 for the Overall
After hearing about the bacon, I had to have it. It sounded rich and decadent and it delivered on every calorie. While it was worth the drive, it wasn’t an option for me to even conceive of a second one and I couldn’t believe that there was a full sized option.
5 pt out of 5 for the Quality/originality
It was served on a doughnut and what’s more original than chocolate covered bacon?
5 pt out of 5 for the Presentation
It was the finer details, like the grill marks across the mini doughnut that really impressed us.
5 pt out of 5 for the Toppings
Again, chocolate covered bacon!
3 pt out of 5 for the Meat
The beef was decent, but just ordinary tasting.
4 pt out of 5 for the Bun
A tad of a cheat here since they used a Krispy Kreme doughnut.
3 pt out of 3 for the Temp
The patty was cooked exactly as we ordered it.
1 pt out of 2 for the IT factor
Neither of us would be able (or want) to eat another, but it was certainly amazing while it lasted.
Burger Total: 31 pt out of 35
5 pt out of 5 for the location.
A laid back, chill vibe, a focus of sustainability and organic foods, an incredibly helpful and friendly staff, and a lengthy list of micro beers and bourbons.
5 pt out of 5 for value.
Some areas were a little dirty and dingy, but it was a lot of fun, had a great outdoor area, and very memorable bathrooms.
1 pt out of 5 bonus points.
+1 Adult Milkshakes
+1 / -1 (unisex bathroom) I wanted to give it a point because it was a really cute idea, but the condition of it negated any extra point it would have received.
