Ben: NIMAN RANCH ALL-NATURAL BEEF BURGER w/ fries & homemade pickle chips. Burger, medium-rare, with lettuce, onion, tomato, Dubliner cheddar cheese, niman ranch bacon and avocado on an artisan roll.

HOW THEY STACK UP:

1. BACKGROUND 1 2 3 4 5
2. BONUSES 1 2 3 4 5
3. BUNDLE 1 2 3 4 5
4. BURGER 1 2 3 4 5
5. BUN 1 2 3 4 5
6. BOLDNESS 1 2 3 4 5
7. BARGAIN 1 2 3 4 5
8. BELT-BUSTING 1 2 3 4 5
9. BURDEN 1 2 3 4 5
10. BUZZ 1 2 3 4 5

TOTAL SCORE: 39

NOTES:

- only having one burger option definitely hurt their score

- very good quality meat and bacon was cooked perfectly (crispy)

- kind of pricey at $11, especially with having to pay $1 each to add bacon, cheese and avocado

- I would skip adding the avocado next time, it didn’t really add much and made it messier

- the cheese and bacon are a must add

- the most amazing add was their homemade ketchup (some of the best I’ve ever had) and stone ground mustard

- indoors was crowded with an event going on so I only saw the bar and sat outside, which had a nice large patio
