Better Than Jim's Burgers? Or The Same? Im Here To See.
Decided to give this place a try. Articles I read online said the burgers were supposed to be more like the original Frontier restaurant burgers, than what Jims serves today.
The prices at the restaurant are priced burger alone, with the option to make them a combo for $2.89. Burgers range from $6.29 to $8.39. So a combo here starts at about $9.
I asked about the difference between the burgers here and at Jim's, and was told it had to do with the way the meat was seasoned, but that's all they could say.
When my food arrived it looked a lot like Jim's. I ordered the Frontier Burger which is a double meat burger, and the flavor was very similar. It seemed like the meat did have a slight flavor difference that was closer to some of the older burger restaurants but wasn't noticeably different to me. My burger was a bit on the cool side as well, not sure if this was due to the lettuce and special sauce (thousand island style dressing). But overall if you had fed this to me blindly, I would have probably identified it as a Jim's hamburger.
Not sure if I'll return at this point. The prices are a bit high for a burger combo, in comparison to Jim's or other burger places, and the flavor was not noticeably different enough to bring me here, as theres just the 1 location, and several Jim's locations around town.— Paul
